Patents Act 1990 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION FOR A STANDARD PATENT Name of Applicant Actual Inventor Address for Service: Invention Title: Eric Ongley Eric Ongley CULLEN CO Patent Trade Mark Attorneys, 239 George Street Brisbane QId 4000 Australian Fuel Saving Device (MKII) Details of Associated Provisional Applications PR3783 16 th March 2001 The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it, known to us: FUEL SAVING DEVICE TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to a fuel saving devices for internal combustion engines.
BACKGROUND ART Fuels such as petrol, diesel, kerosene, and alcohol are not burned fully by most internal combustion engines, due to limited oxygen, carbon deposits, poor air-fuel mixture, poor ignition voltage, and other factors.
Engines with microprocessor-controlled fuel injection and timing improve this situation but they can not achieve 100% burning of the fuel.
The car assessory market has seen many types of fuel saving devices in recent times. Currently available fuel improvement devices are claimed to offer up to a 22% improvement in fuel consumption, and this is generally achieved by catalytic action or static magnetic fields. Such devices have a relatively short operational life.
My Australian Petty Patent No. 728665 describes a fuel saving device which meets the described criteria. It is an object of the present invention to provide an electromagnetic fuel saving device which also offers a substantial reduction in:.
fuel costs, which promotes combustion efficiencies and which has an extended operational life.
Further objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the ensuing description which is given by way of example only.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION According to the present invention there is provided an electromagnetic fuel saving device comprising: a fuel chamber adapted to be interposed in a petrol line serving an internal combustion engine, a multi-strand woven wire coil wound about the outer periphery of the fuel chamber, and means for applying a signal to the coil for the purpose of creating a periodic and varying electric field to fuel within the fuel chamber.
The fuel chamber volume per unit length is substantially greater than the volume per unit length of an inlet and outlet from the fuel chamber.
The volumetric ratio between the fuel chamber and its inlet and outlet is approximately 10:1.
According to a further aspect of the present invention there is provided an electromagnetic fuel saving device as aforesaid wherein the means for applying a signal to the coil comprises a first voltage control oscillator (varying I from 1 to 20 kHz), a second voltage control oscillator whose output varies said first oscillator (at a frequency rate of 7Hz to 14Hz over a period of 300 seconds), a third programmable oscillator, and a power supply to the coil and i means for varying the power supply output to the coil such that output is sychronised with the varying frequencies to the first voltage control oscillator. According to a still further aspect of the present invention there is provided an electromagnetic fuel saving device comprising: a fuel chamber adapted to be interposed in a petrol line serving an internal combustion engine, a multi-strand woven wire coil wound about the outer periphery of the fuel chamber, and means for applying a signal to the coil for the purpose of creating a periodic and varying electric field to fuel within the fuel chamber characterised in that the said means comprises, a first voltage control oscillator (varying from 1 to 20 kHz), a second voltage control oscillator whose output varies said first oscillator (at a frequency rate of 7Hz to 14Hz over a period of 300 seconds) a third programmable oscillator a power supply to the coil and means for varying the power supply output to the coil such that output is synchronised with the varying frequencies of the first voltage control oscillator.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Aspects of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 is a diagrammatic drawing of a fuel saving device in accordance with one possible embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 2 is a componentry layout drawing for one possible form of device illustrated by figure 1.
This invention relates to fuel saving devices.
Firstly with respect to Figure 1 of the drawings a device according to the present invention includes a tubular chamber having front and rear ends 2 and 3 respectively. The device is interposed in a fuel line 4 with the direction of fuel flow being as indicated by the path arrows, that is end 2 being the inward flow end and end 3 being the outward flow end. A power source can be connected to the device via wires 5 and a LED 6 indicates the operational mode of the device. The chamber 1 is approximately 77mm long and 55mm in diameter. This chamber 1 is of a substantially greater than the volume of the previous model described in Australian Petty Patent No.728665 which had a similar diameter of the standard fuel line, approximately 8mm diameter.
The flow of fuel in a carburetored engine is comparatively slow and whilst the earlier device was satisfactory with the advent of fuel injection, and the fast flow of fuel in fuel lines more time is required for the treatment of the fuel.
With respect to Figure 2 of the drawings the new treatment housing now slows down the fuel enough to allow a full treatment.
The device consists of DC power input at A, which is positive 7 to 30 volts DC, and B which is the negative power terminal.
The current from the positive power terminal passes through the reverse voltage protection power diode at C and then passes through the spike suppression inductor of 1 millihenry, then to the switch mode power supply (SMPS) integrated circuit, LM2575M-ADJ at F.
The voltage incoming from positive terminal A is further limited in range by the voltage dependant resistor at E. The switch mode power supply nominally provides 1.23 volts to a 1000 microfrad, 6.3 volt, electrolytic capacitor at J, then to the inductive treatment coil at I.
The coil consists of 37 turns of 20 x 0.15mm strands of woven copper enamel.
The wire must be wound clockwise starting from the N side of the chamber around 57mm diameter of the treatment chamber.
The waveform outputted by the microprocessor is connected to a MOSFET Transistor which switches the current on and off through the coil at I.
The waveform behaviour is tightly controlled by the internal micro processor oscillator at G, and the internal programming of the microprocessor.
The program in the microprocessor has the effect of producing a triangle wave at H, which has a period of 10-300 seconds.
This wave is feed to a voltage-controlled oscillator at L which oooo produces a quasi-sinewave output from a look up table and outputs a frequency sweep from 4Hz to The output of the VCO at L is then feed to another VCO at M.
The VCO at M outputs a square wave to the MOSFET transistor, and the frequency sweep of this VCO is 1 KHz to The fuel passes through the coil at I and its molecules are subjected to the electromagnetic variations in the coil.
The polarity of the electromagnetic wave is important as the fuel improvement will not happen otherwise.
The fuel saving device only needs to run when the engine is working.
The chamber that the fuel flows through must not have any metal at all otherwise the electromagnetic wave will not be able to reach the fuel, i.e. metal pipes are not suitable.
Further improvements in horsepower are obtained by using 3 separate programs and a digital to analog converter at 0, to drive the SMPS at F.
Program 1 uses VC02 only at 12Hz with VC01 outputting 1KHZ to 20KHZ and the SMPS outputting 1.23 volts. This lasts for 6 minutes.
Program 2 changes VC02 operation to out put a sweep from 7Hz to 14Hz with VC01 outputting 1KHz to The sweep takes 360 seconds to complete.
This program lasts for 6 minutes.
Program 3 uses VC02 at 7Hz to 14Hz and VCO1 at 1KHz to and changes the output of the SMPS so that it changes from 1.23 volts to 3.69 volts and back. The minimum voltage from the SMPS occurs at the point when VC01 is at 1KHz and the maximum voltage from the SMPS occurs when VCO1 is at This makes the high frequencies from VCO1 have a higher amplitude than the lower frequencies and so over comes the inductive effect of the coil. This lasts for 12 minutes then the program 1 starts again...
The program 1, 2, 3 is then repeated adinfinitum.
After trials, it has been discovered that program 1 affects the slickness of the oil in the engine so as to decrease the friction in the engine but with slight horsepower gain.
Program 2 affects the oil slickness less, but improves the horsepower.
Program 3 affects the oil slickness slightly but the horsepower increase is very good at 9% All three programs are needed to obtain the best overall results from the engine.
The improvement in fuel economy on a 1994 Holden was 28.6% and on a 1999 Ford was 34.5%.
The hydrocarbon emissions were reduced 58.6% carbon monoxide was reduced to zero.
Aspects of the present invention have been described by way of example only and it will be appreciated that modifications and additions thereto may be made without departing from the scope thereof, as defined in the appended claims.
