摘要:
A diaphragm carburetor is disclosed wherein a mechanism for varying the fuel flow rate through the carburetor for delivery to the engine can be controlled by electronic feedback based on engine performance. A permanent magnet/wire coil assembly is attached to the diaphragm controlling the opening to the metering chamber within the carburetor. The assembly responds to commands based on engine performance and can vary the size of the opening to the metering chamber. In this way, the fuel flow rate through the carburetor can be modified to obtain the optimal fuel/air ratio for peak performance of the engine.

A membrane carburetor (1) for an internal combustion engine includes a control chamber (2) delimited by a membrane. The control chamber (2) is connected via a feed line (8) to a fuel tank (9). The feed line (8) is cleared with the deflection of the membrane (3) because of underpressure in the control chamber (2). The control chamber (2) is connected via at least one intake opening (16, 17) with an air-intake channel (14) to the engine. As start-assist devices for the engine, a scavenging pump (10) and an injection pump (20) are provided. The scavenging pump (10) is provided in a return line (13) between the control chamber (2) and the fuel tank (9). The fuel can be pumped into the air-intake channel (14) with a displacement piston (21) of the injection pump (20). The displacement piston (21) is longitudinally guided in a cylinder (22) and delimits a pump chamber (24). The pump chamber (24) is connected via an injection line (30) to a feed (18) of the intake openings (16, 17). The piston stroke of the displacement piston (21) is limited by a stop (26) which is adjusted in stroke direction (31) by an adjusting element (23) in dependence upon temperature. This arrangement ensures a reliable start of the engine with an easy operability of the start-assist devices.

A carburetor having a first valve to control the application of pressure pulses to a fuel metering assembly of the carburetor through a first flow path and a second valve which controls application of pressure pulses to the fuel metering assembly through at least a second flow path to provide an enriched fuel and air mixture to the engine to facilitate starting the engine and warming it up. The pressure pulses are preferably applied to a fuel metering diaphragm to actuate the diaphragm and cause a richer than normal fuel and air mixture to be delivered to the engine. Desirably, a maximum enrichment of the fuel and air mixture is obtained when both valves are open to facilitate starting the engine, and a lesser enrichment of the mixture may be obtained when only one valve is open to facilitate warming the engine up after it is initially started.

A modular diaphragm carburetor is provided which has a plurality of plates each with generally planar faces adapted to be mated and releasably connected together to facilitate manufacturing and assembling the carburetor and to permit various plates and components of the carburetor to be used in carburetors designed for use with different engine families. By providing a plurality of mated together plates, the machining of the passages through the carburetor is made dramatically easier when compared to the machining of a carburetor having a single body with end caps. Still further, the modular diaphragm design permits different plates and/or components of the carburetor to be used with other components to provide a carburetor having different performance characteristics and suitable for use with a different engine family. Therefore, a wide range of carburetors can be provided which have many of the same components to reduce the overall part count and to more economically manufacture and assemble a wide range of carburetors.

A diaphragm-type carburetor is provided for a two-cycle engine, in a manually guided implement, that operates with layered scavenging. Formed in the carburetor housing is an intake channel portion in which is disposed a butterfly valve that is pivotably held by a shaft. Opening into the intake channel portion are fuel-conveying channels supplied from a fuel-filled control chamber that is formed on a longitudinal side of the intake channel portion in the carburetor housing and is separated from a compensation chamber by a diaphragm. Air for combustion is additionally supplied to the engine via an air channel formed in a functional component of the carburetor fixed on the housing thereof on a longitudinal side of the intake channel portion. The air channel is disposed approximately parallel to the intake channel portion and is guided from that end face of the carburetor that faces an air filter to the connecting side of the carburetor that faces the internal combustion engine. Disposed in the air channel is a throttle member that is rotatably held by a shaft, which is coupled together with the shaft of the butterfly valve by means of a transmission connection.

In a diaphragm-type carburetor, a fuel vapor treating chamber is provided in a downstream fuel passage which interconnects a fuel pump operated in response to a pulsation pressure from a pulsation pressure generating source and an inlet bore in a constant-pressure fuel chamber. The fuel vapor treating chamber is located before the inlet bore, and a porous element for finely dividing fuel vapor is placed in the fuel vapor treating chamber. Thus, when a fuel vapor is generated in the fuel discharged from the fuel pump, a large amount of fuel vapor can be prevented from being ejected all at one time from a fuel nozzle by finely dividing the fuel vapor and introducing it along with the fuel into the constant-pressure fuel chamber, it is immediately passed toward the fuel nozzle, whereby the variation in air-fuel ratio of a fuel-air mixture can be suppressed to a very small level.

A fuel metering system for a combustion engine carburetor utilizes a non-convoluted, planar, flexible diaphragm which does not require a molding process to form a traditional convolution. The diaphragm defines in part a pressure controlled fuel metering chamber on one side and a reference chamber at atmospheric pressure on the other side. During operation of the engine, sub-atmospheric pressure within a fuel and air mixing passage draws fuel from the metering chamber to mix with air for combustion within the engine. As pressure within the metering chamber thus decreases, the diaphragm flexes into metering chamber. The displacement of the diaphragm actuates a flow control valve of the metering system which flows pressurized make-up fuel into the metering chamber until the diaphragm returns to its datum position. Preferably, hardware of the flow control valve which is in direct contact with a surface of the diaphragm exposed to the metering chamber does not penetrate the diaphragm as the traditional rivet and washer assembly would. Therefore, manufacturing costs are reduced and any opportunity of leakage between the fuel metering chamber and reference chamber is eliminated. Preferably, the carburetor is of a manual external purge type in order to exert sufficient vacuum within the metering chamber to displace the metering diaphragm thus opening the flow control valve to purge the carburetor of unwanted fuel vapor and air prior to starting the engine. The novel planar diaphragm thereby resolves problems associated with traditional metering diaphragms such as variation in convolution datum height affecting flow control valve lever/diaphragm clearances, non-symmetric convolution axis or distorted convolution affecting diaphragm pressure response and recovery.

Methods of operating a diaphragm type carburetor to facilitate the atomization of fuel in the diaphragm-type carburetor are disclosed. Particularly, methods of operating a diaphragm-type carburetor having a check valve installed in a fuel passage leading from a constant-fuel chamber to a main nozzle, and an air bleed passage connected at a position on the downstream side of the check valve are disclosed. Moreover, techniques for operating a diaphragm-type carburetor having a main nozzle including nozzle openings facing downstream with respect to the engine intake air flow are also disclosed, wherein the nozzle openings are located in a tubular member cutting across a central axial line of the venturi so that the tubular member bridges the neck of the venturi.
