Abstract:
A fuel injection system for externally ignited, gas internal combustion engines. The system is of the type which involves continuous injection into an induction tube in which a measuring member and a randomly activated throttle are arranged in series. The measuring member is embodied on a plate disposed, under quiescent conditions, at a right angle to the flow direction on one end of a pivoted lever. The plate projects proportionally to the amount of air flowing through the induction tube into a corresponding funnel-shaped section of the induction tube. The lever is operatively arranged to operate a mobile member of a valve which meters out fuel proportional to the quantity of air. The measuring member is displaced backwardly past its quiescent position, when a backfire occurs, in the induction tube, against the force of a spring having a linear characteristic and is caught by a resilient, elastic stop which converts a considerable amount of the kinetic energy into heat and returns the measuring member toward its quiescent position.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection system, a flow rate-responsive device disposed in the suction tube of an internal combustion engine angularly displaces a control plunger which has an oblique control edge and which forms part of a fuel metering device. Depending upon the angular position of said plunger, said control edge determines a flow passage section for the fuel to control the air-fuel mixture.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection pump, in order to prolong the duration of fuel injection during each pressure stroke of the pump piston in the idling or low load rpm range, there is provided a bypass channel extending from the pump work chamber for continuously discharging part of the fuel displaced by the pump piston. Said bypass channel contains a valve means which closes the bypass channel when the engine rpm exceeds the idling or low load rpm range.
Abstract:
A CONTROL AND ACTUATING SYSTEM FOR OPERATING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE, INCLUDING A HYDRAULIC SERVO SYSTEM WHICH, WHEN ENERGIZED BY VIRTUE OF THE DE-ENERGIZATION OF A STOP MAGNET, MOVES THE FUEL QUANTITY CONTROL MEMBER OF A FUEL INJECTION PUMP INTO A ZERO POSITION, A BOLT NORMALLY LIMITING THE MAXIMUM DISPLACEMENT OF SAID CONTROL MEMBER TO A SETTING FOR FULL LOAD FUEL DELIVERY, SAID BOLT IS ASSOCIATED WITH A STARTING MAGNET WHICH, WHEN ENERGIZED MOVES SAID BOLT TO SUCH AN EXTENT AS TO PERMIT SAID CONTROL MEMBER TO BE POSITIONED IN A SETTING IN WHICH THE FUEL INJECTION PUMP DELIVERS FUEL QUANTITIES (STARTING QUANTITY) THAT IN EXCESS OF THE FULL LOAD FUEL QUANTITIES.
Abstract:
IN A FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM, THE FUEL ADMITTED TO THE FUEL INJECTION VALVE IS METERED BY A PLUNGER ANGULARLY DISPLACEABLE BY A THROTTLE MEMBER RESPONSIVE TO THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE SUCTION TUBE. PRIOR TO THE INJECTION OF FUEL BY THE INJECTION VALVE INTO THE SUCTION TUBE, THE FUEL IS PREMIXED IN SAID INJECTION VALVE BY AIR TAKEN FROM THE SUCTION TUBE DOWNSTREAM OF SAID THROTTLE MEMBER AND UPSTREAM OF AN ARBITRARILY OPERABLE BUTTERFLY VALVE.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection nozzle there is disposed a valve member which, during normal operation, maintains the nozzle open but which, when actuated by a control liquid admitted to the nozzle in a control conduit, hermetically obturates the nozzle opening.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection pump the quantities delivered during each pressure stroke thereof are varied by opening a bypass channel at a predetermined moment by means of a regulator shuttle driven from a constant abutment by hydraulic pressure generated by pump means operating synchronously with the main piston of the fuel injection pump. Said predetermined moment is variable by turning said regulator shuttle. The moment fuel delivery starts during each pressure stroke may be changed without affecting the delivered fuel quantities by means delaying to a lesser or greater extent the buildup of said hydraulic pressure.
Abstract:
In a fuel injection pump of the type wherein the r.p.m. control of the internal combustion engine is effected by throttling to a greater or lesser extent a regulator fluid displaced by a regulator shuttle, there are provided means to vary the largest possible flow passage section for said regulator fluid, in response to shifting gears in said engine, for varying the maximum r.p.m. thereof.
Abstract:
A measuring and distributing fuel valve for an external-ignition engine has a flow-responsive disc mounted in the suction duct at one end of a pivotable arm carrying a counterweight at its other end. A roller on the arm controls the rotatable slider of a measuring and distributing valve and engages frictionally with an eccentric point on the end face of the slider.
Abstract:
In an internal combustion engine, a sensor, disposed in the suction tube and deflected as a function of the flow rate of air, operates a fuel quantity control member against a force which is derived from the magnetic flux of an electromagnet, the energizing current intensity of which changes as a function of operational variables (such as load, rpm or temperature) of the engine.
