Title: Jeffery C Jones: Innovator in Vertical Shaft Alignment and Engine Air Control

Introduction

Jeffery C Jones is a notable inventor based in Dunlap, TN (US). He has made significant contributions to the fields of mechanical engineering and internal combustion engine technology. With a total of 3 patents, his work focuses on innovative solutions for vertical shaft alignment and controlled air supply for engines.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a vertical shaft alignment tool. This apparatus and method are designed for aligning a vertical shaft or multiple axially coupled vertical shafts in hydroelectric turbine generators or similar systems. The tool provides precise plumb inclination alignment of a vertical rotating shaft. Precision inclinometers attached to the vertical shaft measure plumb inclination, while proximity probe displacement devices measure radial movement, throw, or run out at various shaft elevations. Data acquisition and communication devices accumulate and transmit alignment data to a micro-computer for processing. Additionally, he has developed methods for defining shaft plumb inclination in both static and dynamic positions.

Another significant invention by Jones is a controlled air supply device for internal combustion engines. This device controls the flow of air heated by the engine to the vacuum inlet of the carburetor. It includes an elongated duct for air flow and a temperature-responsive valve that regulates the air flow based on temperature, ensuring optimal performance when the air reaches a predetermined value.
