Abstract:
A primary control pulse is initiated in synchronization with the operation of an internal combustion engine and is terminated after a time duration Tp which is determined as a preselected function of a primary engine operating parameter. A control voltage is developed across a capacitor having a capacitance C. The capacitor is charged with a charge current Ic in response to the presence of a primary control pulse to increase the control voltage from an initial level Li to a peak level Lp. The capacitor is discharged with a discharge current Id in response to the absence of a primary control pulse to decrease the control voltage from the peak level Lp to a final level Lf. Fuel is applied to the engine in an amount proportional to the time interval established between the departure of the control voltage from the initial level Li and the arrival of the control voltage at the final level Lf. As a result, the total quantity of fuel Q delivered to the engine is defined by the following equation:

Abstract:
In an electronic fuel injection system, fuel is applied to an internal combustion engine for the duration of individual control pulses developed in synchronization with the engine rotation. During cranking of the engine, additional control pulses are supplied at a frequency which is inversely related to the temperature of the engine and which is also inversely related to the supply voltage of a power source. In a preferred embodiment, the frequency of the additional control pulses is doubled when the supply voltage falls below a minimum acceptable level.
Abstract:
A speed control circuit for split phase motors of the type having the series combination of a phase winding and an electrical impedance element connected in parallel with the running winding. One diagonal of a resistive bridge circuit having at least one variable resistor is connected across a control circuit resistor, connected in series with the motor across a source of alternating current potential, and the baseemitter electrodes of a transistor are connected across the other diagonal of the bridge circuit. With the bridge circuit unbalanced with a change of resistance value of the variable resistor in a direction to produce emitter-base current flow through the transistor, this device conducts through the emittercollector electrodes to complete an energizing circuit for the gate-cathode electrodes of a silicon controlled rectifier. The resulting gate-cathode current flow triggers this device conductive through the anode-cathode electrodes thereof which are connected in series with the heater element of a thermal relay across the control resistor to operate the normally open contacts of the relay to the closed condition to complete a low resistance circuit in shunt with the phase winding of the motor.
