Latest Patents

Walker’s listed patent is titled “Diagnostic Fuel Storage System.” It describes a system that uses a pressure sensor to monitor pressure at diagnostic points in a fuel storage system.

One embodiment includes a storage tank with a fuel vapor vent port, a filter system connected to that port, a pump that moves fuel vapor through the filter, and at least one pressure sensor. The components are arranged so that the tank and selected vapor ducts operate below atmospheric pressure. Pressure readings can indicate when the system is operating above atmospheric pressure.

Another embodiment connects multiple fuel storage systems to a central data processor through a communications link. The processor is configured to process pressure data collected by sensors in the systems.
