Abstract: The dual valve lifter assembly has a dual valve lift with two hydraulic lash adjusters therein and a guide for orienting and preventing rotation of the dual valve lifter. The guide has four ledges and the dual valve lifter has four flats which mate with the four ledges. The flats and the ledges prevent the rotation of the lifter. One pair of flats and one pair of ledges are spaced the same while the other pair of flats and the other pair of ledges are spaced at a different distance than the first pair of flats and ledges. The difference in the spacing of the pairs of ledges and flats allows for correct orientation of the lifter when mating it with the guide.

Abstract: Described is a cyclone separator comprising a cyclone housing (1), a discharge duct (5) and a central tube (3) for diverting gases, said central tube (3) extends axially into the cyclone housing (1) and being composed by a number of segments (3a) which are suspended on a supporting element (15) provided in the area between the cyclone housing (1) and the discharge duct (5). The cyclone separator is peculiar in that it comprises a number of carrying means (17) which are evenly distributed and fixed to the inner side of the cyclone housing (1) and/or the discharge duct (5), and in that the supporting element (15) comprises an annular disc which is loosely fitted on top of the carrying means (17) and having an outer diameter which is smaller than the inner diameter of the cyclone housing (1) and/or the discharge duct (5) so that a clearance (18) is provided between the annular disc (15) and the cyclone housing (1) and/or the discharge duct (5). Hereby is obtained a significant reduction in the heat transmission from the supporting element to the cyclone housing and/or the discharge duct so that the radial temperature gradient in the supporting element is reduced with an approximately uniform temperature over the radial cross section of the element. Hence the thermal stresses in the supporting element will be substantially reduced. This is mainly ascribable to the reduction in the contact area between the supporting element and the cyclone housing and/or the discharge duct.
