TLDR
In this article, the authors propose a system where a first heating means directs heated air to the air filter of a vehicle internal combustion engine when the temperature of one portion of a VIN is below a predetermined amount.Abstract:
A system wherein a first heating means directs heated air to the air filter of a vehicle internal combustion engine when the temperature of one portion of said vehicle internal combustion engine is below a predetermined amount. A second heating means consisting of a shroud is provided and is connected to the air filter. Air entering the shroud is heated by the exhaust manifold and a temperature responsive means increases the amount of air directed to the air filter from the shroud as the operating temperature of the engine increases.read more

Warming-up system for internal combustion engines
Kenji Masaki,Masaaki Saito +1 more
TL;DR: A combustible mixture fed into an engine is heated by engine exhaust gases, the throttle valve is forcefully opened, ignition timing of the engine is retarded, cooling of engine coolant and circulation thereof through the cooling circuit is interrupted and intake air is heating by exhaust gases during cold engine operation.
Patent
Exhaust manifold shield
TL;DR: In this paper, the subject heat shield assembly includes a heat source, an inner member and an outer member which respectively define first and second cooling flow paths, with the first cooling flow path being adapted to convect heat away from the heat source and the inner member as air passes therethrough and the second one adapted to convey heat away between the inner and outer members as air passed therethrough.

Structure for cooling high-voltage built-in units in hybrid vehicle
Harumi Takedomi,Osamu Hasegawa +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a cooling structure for a hybrid vehicle with an internal combustion engine and high-voltage units, which includes a motor which assists driving power of the engine and also functions as a power generator, a highvoltage storage battery for storing generated power, and a high voltage controller between the motor and the storage battery.
Patent
Fuel injected internal combustion engine pollutant control system
TL;DR: In this article, an internal combustion engine having three valves per cylinder includes a novel fuel injector that produces a heated 30% liquid/70% vapor fuel mixture at the injector's outlet, which combines with air heated to a temperature within the range of 160° F to 180° F by thermistor controlled heating elements prior to entering a combustion chamber.

Electric and automatic fuel vaporizer
Skok Alois,Noble O Binley +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, electrically energized and automatically operated vaporizers, adapted for fuels used in the internal combustion engines, were described. But they did not specify the types of fuels to be used.
Patent
Starting means for internal combustion engines
TL;DR: In this paper, a means for heating the intake air of Diesel engines to facilitate starting is described. But this is not related to our work in this paper, as it is concerned with a different application.

Manifold heater and control circuits for the same
Loeffler Bruno,John S Pelan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved electric heater circuit and heater for manifolds of internal combustion engines is described. But the present invention relates to electrical heater systems for manifold combustion engines and to heaters therefor, and embodies, more particularly, an improved heater circuit, by means of which the vehicle batteries may be relieved of uneven strain to which they have been subjected.
