Abstract:
What follows is a description of various exemplary embodiments of a fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine with exhaust gas recycling controlled by a throttle valve situated in the suction tube of the system. The throttle valve is in turn controlled by a servomotor having a displaceable piston connected to the throttle valve. The piston is displaceable against a variable restoring force exerted against it and produces displacements of the throttle valve between two positions, one corresponding to a fully opened position of the throttle valve and closed exhaust gas recycling line, and the other corresponding to a substantially closed throttle valve.
Abstract:
A device for exhaust gas recycling is proposed which controls the amount of recycled exhaust gas in an internal combustion engine equipped with an injection unit so that a certain air factor is attained. The device comprises a closing element for the exhaust gas return conduit, which latter terminates into the intake manifold, this closing element being suitably constituted by a throttle valve and being directly connected to the adjusting lever or control rod of the injection pump. If this connection is established via a resilient linkage between the adjusting lever and the exhaust gas return valve, then the thus-recycled amount of exhaust gas can be dimensioned so that a specific quantity of recycled exhaust gas is associated with a specific angular position of the adjusting lever.
Abstract:
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, in particular an in-line injection pump for Diesel engines, is proposed having an injection quantity governor and an electrically driven feed pump, in which in order to assure an emergency shutoff in the event of a malfunction of the injection quantity governor, a check valve, the forward flow direction of which is toward a suction chamber filled with fuel by the feed pump, is disposed between the pressure-side outlet of the feed pump and the suction chamber. An emergency shutoff device responding to a malfunction switches off the feed pump drive, so that because of the lack of feed pressure the check valve closes and blocks off the suction chamber. The engine comes to a stop, as soon as a partial vacuum is established in the suction chamber, which occurs as soon as several revolutions later.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for correcting the fuel quantity delivered by a fuel injection apparatus to an internal combustion engine, in particular for correcting the full-load fuel quantity per stroke, whereby a control value corresponding to the fuel injection quantity per time unit is formed and is converted into a control value corresponding to the fuel injection quantity by means of division of a value dependent on the rpm, the injection quantity per stroke being corrected by means of an adjustment of the fuel quantity control device of the fuel injection apparatus in accordance with the deviation of this converted control value from a set-point value.
Abstract:
A fuel injection system for controlling a mixture-compressing, externally ignited internal combustion engine which includes a fuel apportionment valve controllable by means of an air flow rate meter, with the fuel pressure upstream of the apportionment point being variable by means of a pressure regulating valve having a movable valve member which separates two chambers connected by a throttle point, and wherein the fuel pressure upstream of the fuel apportionment valve is exerted on one side of the movable valve member, and the force of a spring and a control pressure, which is variable by means of a control element in accordance with operating characteristics of the internal combustion engine, are exerted on the other side of the movable valve member to thereby intervene easily in order to vary the fuel-air mixture using small control forces.
Abstract:
A fuel injection device for mixture compressing, externally ignited internal combustion engines, which serves to meter the fuel proportional to the intake air and aspirates the air-fuel mixture. The fuel injection device includes an air flow rate meter located downstream of a butterfly valve in the air induction tube. The bearing shaft of the air flow rate meter includes a fuel metering valve which can be activated directly by the air flow rate meter. To correct the air-fuel mixture because of air density downstream of the butterfly valve, the fuel injection device is so arranged, that when the butterfly valve is in its idling and full load positions a rich air-fuel mixture can be regulated, and when the butterfly valve is in a partial load position a lean mixture can be regulated.
Abstract:
A regulating device used with the fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine, for regulating the proportions of the operating mixtures of the engine. The regulating device is embodied as a pump which is incorporated into the existing fuel injection system. The pump has a chamber within which a piston is displaceable. This piston is coupled with the fuel rate adjusting member of the fuel injection pump of the fuel injection system, and is displaced in accordance with the adjusted position of the fuel rate adjusting member. The pump is also connected with the throttle plate of the fuel injection system located in the induction tube of the engine. By reason of these connections, rapid adjustment movements of the fuel rate adjusting member can be effectively translated to a proper adjustment of the throttle plate without the delay found in presently known regulating devices.
Abstract:
An air flow rate sensor, located in the indication tube of an internal combustion engine, displaces a fuel metering slide, thereby changing the fuel flow and the fuel pressure gradient. This pressure gradient is applied to a differential pressure valve which actuates a fuel flow control throttle until the pressure gradient has been restored to a nominal value, corresponding to a desired fuel-air ratio.In a variant embodiment, an arbitrary change in the metered out fuel results in a fuel pressure gradient which is used to reset an air-flow control member until the nominal value of the pressure gradient has been restored, corresponding to a desired fuel-air ratio.
Abstract:
A fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine includes an air flow responsive throttle element in the induction tube which is subject to an adjustable elastic restoring force. The throttle element is attached to a bushing which rotates about a pivotal shaft mounted within the induction tube. A control slot in the bushing is covered to varying extent by a control edge on the pivotal shaft so that fuel which enters a groove in the shaft is metered out according to the relative rotation of shaft and bushing. The relative position of the throttle can be adjusted by a pressure cell.
Abstract:
An improved control installation for internal combustion engines having exhaust gas recycling is described. The installation includes a suction tube, a throttle flap valve mounted within the suction tube, an exhaust gas pipe, an exhaust gas recycling valve and a return line leading from the exhaust gas pipe to the recycling valve and from there back to the suction tube downstream of the throttle flap valve. The improvement comprises a bypass line which extends from the suction tube upstream of the throttle flap valve to the recycling valve and back to the suction tube downstream of the throttle flap valve. The air that passes through the bypass line serves to cool the recycling valve. In addition, the bypass line serves as a conduit for air to the engine during idling operation.
