Abstract:
A fuel injection system (10) for delivering metered amounts fuel into the combustion chamber or cylinder of an engine. The fuel delivered can selectively comprise a gaseous fuel, a liquid fuel or a fuel mixture comprising the gaseous fuel and the liquid fuel. When the fuel delivered comprises a mixture of the gaseous fuel and the liquid fuel, the quantity of liquid fuel comprises a metered quantity. The quantity of gaseous fuel also comprises a metered quantity, with the metering of the gaseous fuel being regulated by prediction. The injection event involves delivering the liquid fuel and the gaseous fuel, with the metering of the gaseous fuel delivered being adjusted to allow for the quantity of liquid fuel delivered with the gaseous fuel. The injection system (10) comprises a liquid fuel circuit (11) and a gaseous fuel circuit (13), both communicating with a fuel delivery injector (15) that delivers fuel to the combustion chamber. The fuel injection system (10) further comprises an electronic control unit (ECU) for controlling operation of the fuel injection system (10). The ECU controls operation of the fuel delivery injector (15) and a fluid metering injector (31). The ECU determines the proportions of liquid fuel and gaseous fuel required to meet the fuelling demand. The ECU operates the fluid metering injector (31) to deliver the required quantity of liquid fuel into a holding chamber within the fuel delivery injector (15). The ECU also predicts the gaseous fuel flow required to deliver the necessary proportion of gaseous fuel and operates the fuel delivery injector (15) accordingly. In particular, the ECU refers to a “look-up” map or table to determine the operating parameters of the fuel delivery injector (15) to deliver the necessary quantity of gaseous fuel in conjunction with the metered quantity of liquid fuel.

Abstract:
A handheld work apparatus includes a fuel tank, into which a flexible fuel line projects. A suction head is arranged at the free end of the fuel line. The suction head is connected via the fuel line to a fuel supply device of an internal combustion engine of the work apparatus. The suction head has at least one weight member. The weight member is formed at least partially as a magnet to achieve good cleaning of the fuel without a substantial increase in the weight of the work apparatus.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for supplying an internal combustion engine with fuel, having a fuel reservoir and a high-pressure pump, which are connected through a suction line, a metering valve which effects a change of the passage cross-section of the suction line, a rail for receiving high-pressure fuel, and a pressure control valve for controlling the pressure in the rail. The metering valve and the pressure control valve are combined in a common housing and have opposite opening directions. The metering valve and the pressure control valve have closing members which are rigidly connected to each other and are movable on a coincident movement axis.
Abstract:
A fuel pressure control system for a fuel injected engine measures the fuel pressure at an outlet of a fuel pump and controls the operating speed of the fuel pump as a function of the difference between a desired pressure and a measured pressure. Signals are provided to the fuel pump which are pulse width modulated signals that have a pulse width determined as a function of the desired pressure at the outlet of the pump and an actual measured pressure at the outlet of the pump. The desired pressure is determined as a function of air flow into the engine, a desired air/fuel ratio which, in turn, is a function of engine speed and the load on the engine, and a desired fuel rate which is determined as a function of the air/fuel ratio and the air flow into the engine. The desired fuel rate is then used to select a pressure at the outlet of the pump which will result in the desired fuel rate.
Abstract:
Valve structures include a combination of spool valving and poppet valving. A spool function of the structure regulates the flow of a liquid, such as the flow of fuel to a diesel engine. A poppet function provides a low leakage in the valve in a closed or cut-off state. With this combination in a valve, spool clearance can be increased reducing the cost and precision machining/assembly of the components, because the poppet to seat closure provides the sealing function at cut-off. Included are an air-gap flux adjustment to adjust responsiveness to control current, and a force pre-load adjustment.
Abstract:
A system with which a correction of the fuel composition upon a change in the state of load of an internal combustion engine with which a mixture-forming device (4, 6, 8, 9, 11) is associated is constructed in structurally simple manner. The mixture-forming device has a feed unit (6) for the fuel with an inlet-side fuel conveyor line (5) and a discharge-side fuel conveyor line (7) and a movably mounted feed member (18). Depending on the position of the feed member (18), the feed member (18) provides variable fuel passage cross-sections in the feed unit (6). The feed unit is connected via an opening (31) which is closed in sealing fashion by a movable equalization element (33), the equalization space (32) being connected via a branch line (34) to the discharge-side fuel conveyor line. The feed member and the equalization element are coupled with each other locked for movement in such a manner that a movement of the feed member in the direction of an enlarged fuel passage cross-section leads to a movement of the equalization element which reduces the equalization space. A movement of the feed member in the direction of a reduced fuel passage cross-section leads to a movement of the equalization element which enlarges the equalization space.
Abstract:
Constant differential pressure valves, one for each cylinder of the engine, supply liquid fuel to the injection nozzles. The liquid fuel supplied to the valves is delivered from a chamber within a metering member mounted to turn within the bore of a stationary sleeve. A plate carried by the metering member has notches on its periphery which cooperate with openings in the enclosing sleeve to form variable orifices. The metering member is turned in proportion to the rate of air flow through an air intake passage for the engine.
