MUMBAI, India, Sept. 28 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511018084 A) filed by International Tractors Limited on February 28, 2025, for System For Enhancing Tractor Engine Performance Using Compressed Oxygen In High-Altitude Areas & Method Thereof.

Inventors include Thakur Abhishek; Sankla Sagar; Dhiman Rahul; Ray Deepak; and Salgotra Keshav.

The application for the patent was published on September 25, 2026, under issue no. 39/2026.

Abstract: Disclosed herein provides a method & a system that enhances agricultural vehicle performance in high-altitude environments by supplementing oxygen to the engine. It employs multiple sensors—oxygen, engine load, altitude, and exhaust—to gather data on oxygen needs for efficient combustion. An Electronic Control Unit (ECU) processes this sensor data to calculate the optimal oxygen flow rate and generate a control signal. This signal directs a solenoid valve to regulate the flow of compressed oxygen from a storage tank. A pressure regulator ensures safe oxygen pressure before delivery through a pipe to a mixing chamber. Here, the controlled oxygen is mixed with intake air, creating an oxygen-enriched mixture for improved fuel burning in the engine.
