摘要:
A cooling-water temperature is detected at startup of an engine. When the detected temperature falls below a set water-temperature, a water pump is stopped independently of a normal control on rotational frequency of the water pump depending on engine operational state. Calculated is a total heat amount required for raising the current water-temperature to the set water-temperature, and integrated is an heat amount lost by the cooling water from the engine from the startup. When an integrated value reaches the total heat amount, the water pump is operated for a required time to uniformize temperature distribution of the cooling water. Then, the cooling-water temperature is detected again. If the detected temperature is still below the set water-temperature, the same control is repeated; if the detected temperature is equal to or greater than the set water-temperature, the normal control is restored.

A starting system for an internal combustion engine automatically operates a starting feature on a carburetor associated with the engine. The starting system includes a cam with a bearing mounted on the crankshaft. The bearing is secured so that its inner race will always rotate with the crankshaft. The cam has bosses on one side and is shaped such that it includes a base and a lobe with an outer surface surrounding the cam. At least one spring-loaded pawl is mounted on the flywheel. The pawl is biased to engage a cam boss so as to cause the cam to rotate with the crankshaft during a start-up process. A spring loaded rocker arm is pivotally mounted adjacent the cam. The rocker arm has a roller assembly configured to ride on the outer surface of the cam. As the cam rotates, the roller assembly riding on the cam surface is pushed outward by the cam lobe. A throttle cable is attached at a first end to the rocker arm and at its opposite end to the starting feature on the carburetor. When the roller assembly ramps up the lobe, the throttle cable is pulled into an extended position to actuate the starting feature of the carburetor.

An engine having a crank shaft which is caused to start to rotate by pulling a recoil rope includes: a reel around which the recoil rope is wound; a clutch mechanism which is provided between the reel and the crank shaft and switchable between a first state and a second state; and a sub-generator connected to the reel. The first state of the clutch mechanism allows transmission of force in one direction from the reel to the crank shaft, while the second state does not allow transmission of force in both directions between the reel and the crank shaft. When the crank shaft is caused to start to rotate, the clutch mechanism is switched to the first state, whereas when the sub-generator is driven for power generation, the clutch mechanism is switched to the second state.

A control system for manipulating operation of an engine of a portable engine powered device includes a choke and primer control that simplifies starting of the engine. The control system includes a dial that is associated with a choke control to effectuate choking of the engine during starting of the engine. The control system includes a primer control that is configured to provide an initial fuel charge to the engine. Preferably, the control system includes a single input that effectuates both the choke and primer operations associated with starting the engine. Preferably, the dial is moveable in a rotational direction to effectuate the choking operation and is movable in a longitudinal or axial direction to effectuate the priming operation such that user interaction with only the single input effectuates the sequence of the engine starting fuel control.

A power equipment apparatus includes an engine, an electric starter motor, a manual starter mechanism, a temperature sensor, and a starter switch. The temperature sensor is operatively coupled with the engine and is configured to generate a temperature signal reflecting a temperature of a portion of the engine. The starter switch is configured to selectively facilitate passage of electrical power to the electric starter motor for actuation of the electric starter motor only when both the starter switch is actuated and the temperature exceeds a predetermined temperature.
摘要:
A pull-cord start system has a recoil pulley coupled to a crankshaft of a combustion engine and a pull-cord wound about the recoil pulley that is pulled by an end user to rotate the recoil pulley and thereby start the engine. A throttle override device of the pull-cord start system has a shuttle coupled to the pull-cord for movement from a biased rest position to an active position when the pull-cord is being pulled by an end user. A linkage of the throttle override device and preferably being a Bowden cable extends between a throttle control and a throttle valve of a carburetor and is interlinked to the shuttle so that actuation of the throttle control when the shuttle is in the active position will not open the throttle valve that is biased preferably in an idle position because movement of the shuttle to the active position produces slack in the linkage.

The invention inhibits a blown-back fuel from flowing into an air screw passage and a starter passage, and a stable engine idling operation is obtained. [Constitution] A single idle air control passage (5) is open toward a suction air passage (2a) in a downstream side from a throttle valve (4), a starter passage (6) and an air screw passage (7) are independently branched from an upstream side passage (5a) of the idle air control passage (5), an upstream side of the starter passage (6) communicates with an atmospheric air, a downstream side thereof communicates with the upstream side passage (5a) of the idle air control passage (5), a start opening and closing valve (10) controlling an opening area of the passage is arranged in the starter passage (6), an upstream side of the air screw passage (7) communicates with an atmospheric air, a downstream side thereof communicates with the upstream side passage (5a) of the idle air control passage (5), and an air screw (11) controlling an opening area of the passage is screwed to the air screw passage.

A system for overriding an EMD locomotive engine protective device which includes a low water pressure sensing device in communication with the engine cooling system for shutting down the engine when low water pressure in the engine is sensed, the override system comprising a water assist pump connected to a source of water and communicating with the protective device for supplying pressurized water to the low water pressure sensing device to maintain relatively high water pressure to prevent the device from shutting down the engine; and a controller for activating the water assist pump during start up of the engine.
