Fresno, California Patent of the Year – 2024/2025

Whipple Industries Inc. has been awarded the 2024/2025 Patent of the Year for its groundbreaking intercooler lid assembly. Their invention, detailed in U.S. Patent No. 11971228, titled ‘Intercooler assembly’, the invention introduces a pre-assembled intercooler system that enhances performance and simplifies installation for supercharged engines.
