Definitions

  • the present application relates generally to speed control for engines. More specifically, the present application relates to a speed control system arrangeable in a variable speed mode or a fixed speed mode, and that can be used with more than one remote actuation system.
  • One embodiment relates to an engine that includes a fuel tank, a carburetor including a throttle valve movable between a first throttle position and a second throttle position, a governor system configured to move the throttle valve, and a speed control system including a control lever defining a first actuation distance, and a bellcrank movable between an idle position and a high speed position and coupled to the governor system.
  • the bellcrank defines a second actuation distance that is different than the first actuation distance.
  • a speed control system for an engine includes a speed control lever and a bellcrank.
  • the speed control lever and the bellcrank include multiple connection points allowing the speed control system to be controlled manually in a manual control mode, or remotely in a remote control mode.
  • the connection points providing for remote operation can be arranged to operate with solid wire actuators or soft wire actuators.
  • the bellcrank is structured to operate with different actuation systems having different actuation travel distances. In one example, the bellcrank has connections providing for operation with a 15 millimeter or a 20 millimeter, or a 17.5 millimeter travel distance.
  • the speed control system can be arranged to operate in a variable speed mode with the position of the speed control lever affecting the operational speed of the engine, or a fixed speed mode where the bellcrank is fixed.
  • the speed control system can also include an ignition kill and a fuel shutoff that are actuated by the speed control lever. In some embodiments, actuation of the speed control lever, either manually or remotely, acts to affect the speed of the engine, the ignition kill, and the fuel shutoff.
  • an engine 30 includes a fuel tank 34, and a speed control system 38 that includes a carburetor 42, a speed control lever 46, a bellcrank 50 (not visible in FIG. 1 , see FIG. 4 ), a governor system 54, and a transport valve system 58.
  • the engine 30 may be used to power outdoor power equipment, portable jobsite equipment, or other equipment that requires a prime mover.
  • Outdoor power equipment may include lawn mowers, riding tractors, snow throwers, pressure washers, tillers, log splitters, zero-turn radius mowers, walk-behind mowers, riding mowers, stand-on mowers, pavement surface preparation devices, industrial vehicles such as forklifts, utility vehicles, commercial turf equipment such as blowers, vacuums, debris loaders, overseeders, power rakes, aerators, sod cutters, brush mowers, portable generators, etc.
  • Outdoor power equipment may, for example, use the engine 30 to drive an implement, such as a rotary blade of a lawn mower, a pump of a pressure washer, an auger of a snow thrower, and/or a drivetrain of the outdoor power equipment.
  • Portable jobsite equipment may include portable light towers, mobile industrial heaters, and portable light stands.
  • the carburetor 42 includes a throttle valve that is moveable between a first position in the form of a low speed position and a second position in the form of a high speed position and thereby control the air fuel mixture exiting the carburetor 42 and entering a combustion chamber of the engine 30, and a choke lever 62 arranged to adjust the position of a choke valve to control air flow into the carburetor 42.
  • the carburetor 42 is arranged to mix fuel from the fuel tank 34 with air and provide the mixture to the combustion chamber.
  • the choke lever 62 may be eliminated or arranged in a different position/location on the engine 30.
  • the engine 30 may be in the form of a small, single-cylinder, four-stroke cycle, internal combustion engine and includes an engine block, an air intake, and an exhaust. Interior to the engine 30, the engine 30 includes a passageway configured to channel air from the air intake to a combustion chamber. Along the passageway, fuel is mixed with the air in the carburetor 42 or other fuel injection device. Combustion in the combustion chamber converts chemical energy to mechanical energy (e.g., rotational motion, torque) via a piston, a connecting rod, and a crankshaft, which may then be coupled to one or more rotating tools (e.g., blade, alternator, auger, impeller, tines, drivetrain) of outdoor power equipment.
  • rotating tools e.g., blade, alternator, auger, impeller, tines, drivetrain
  • the crankshaft is a horizontal crankshaft arranged to provide power to an output shaft 66 (see FIG. 3 ) arranged to provide power to one or more implements.
  • the crankshaft is a vertical crankshaft.
  • the engine 30 includes two or more cylinders (e.g., two cylinders arranged in a V-twin configuration).
  • the bellcrank 50 is coupled to the carburetor 42 via the governor system 54, and the bellcrank 50 interacts with the governor system 54 to control the amount of fuel air mixture provided to the combustion chamber of the cylinder and thereby vary the operating speed of the engine 30.
  • the transport valve system 58 is arranged in the fuel flow path between the fuel tank 34 and the carburetor 42 and operates in response to the speed control lever 46 to selectively inhibit fuel flow from the fuel tank 34 to the carburetor 42.
  • the speed of the engine 30 can be controlled remotely from five different directions: a right lever direction A, a left lever direction B, a front bellcrank direction C, a back bellcrank direction D, and a left bellcrank direction E (see FIG. 3 ).
  • the five directions A-E define actuation directions that may be used by remote actuators to control the speed control system 38.
  • the right lever direction A can be used with a solid wire actuator in a push to high speed no load (HSNL) arrangement.
  • the left lever direction B can used with a solid wire actuator in a pull to HSNL arrangement.
  • the front bellcrank direction C can be used with a solid wire actuator or a soft wire actuator in a pull to HSNL arrangement.
  • the back bellcrank direction D can be used with a solid wire actuator in a push to HSNL arrangement.
  • the left bellcrank direction E can be used with a solid wire actuator or a soft wire actuator in a pull to HSNL arrangement.
  • the speed control lever 46 is rotatably mounted to a bracket 70 about a first axis 74 and the bellcrank 50 is rotatably mounted to the bracket about a second axis 78.
  • the speed control lever 46 is connected to the bellcrank 50 with a control link 82 so that rotation of the speed control lever 46 about the first axis 74 results in rotation of the bellcrank 50 about the second axis 78.
  • the governor system 54 includes a governor arm 86 coupled to the bellcrank 50 by a governor spring 90 and controlled by a governor or speed sensing device in response to the speed of the engine 30, and a governor link 94 that is coupled to the throttle valve of the carburetor 42 to control the fuel air mixture provided to the combustion chamber of the engine 30.
  • moving the speed control lever 46 causes the rotation of the bellcrank 50 and changes the tension in the governor spring 90 which affects the speed of the engine 30 by changing the force balance in governor system 54, which moves the throttle valve via the governor arm 86 and governor link 94.
  • movement of the speed control lever 46 only affects the position of the throttle valve if the engine 30 is running.
  • the governor system 54 may also include weights, a slider cup, a crank, springs, links, and other components, as desired.
  • the transport valve system 58 includes a transport valve that is actuatable so that a valve element is moveable between an open position and a closed position to selectively inhibit fuel flow to the carburetor 42.
  • the transport valve system 58 is controlled by the speed control lever 46.
  • a transport link 98 is connected between the speed control lever 46 and the transport valve system 58. When the speed control lever 46 is arranged in an off position (as shown in FIG. 4 ), the transport link 98 actuates the transport valve system 58 to a transport position where fuel is inhibited from flowing to the carburetor 42.
  • Embodiments of the transport valve system 58 are discussed in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/466,257 filed on March 2, 2017 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
  • an electrical shutoff element in the form of a ground switch 102 is mounted on the bracket 70 and positioned to interact with the speed control lever 46.
  • the ground switch 102 grounds an ignition circuit of the engine 30 so that the engine 30 is inhibited from running. Further details and embodiments of the electrical shutoff element are discussed in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/466,257 .
  • the speed control lever 46 includes a handle 106, a control lever remote aperture 110 defined in the handle 106 and sized to receive a wire actuator, a mounting aperture 114 sized to mount the speed control lever 46 to the bracket 70 about the first axis 74, a control lever speed aperture 118 sized to receive the control link 82, a control lever transport aperture 122 sized to receive the transport link 98, and a speed control cam surface 126 sized to interact with the ground switch 102 and actuate the ground switch between an off position where operation of the engine 30 is inhibited and an on position where operation of the engine 30 is allowed.
  • the bellcrank 50 includes first arm 130, a second arm 134, a third arm 138, and a mounting aperture 142 sized to mount the bellcrank 50 to the bracket 70 about the second axis 78.
  • the first arm 130 includes a bellcrank control aperture 146 sized to receive the control link 82, and a spring aperture 150.
  • the second arm 134 includes a first soft wire aperture 154, a first short throw aperture 158, and a first long throw aperture 162.
  • the third arm 138 includes a second soft wire aperture 166, a second short throw aperture 170, a second long throw aperture 174, and a governor spring holder 178 sized to engage and retain the governor spring 90.
  • the governor spring holder 178 is an aperture, a compression nut, or another coupling structure. In some embodiments, more than two, or less than two throw apertures may be included on each of the second arm 134 and the third arm 138. In some embodiments, the first throw apertures 158, 162 or the second throw apertures 170, 174 may be eliminated. In some embodiments, one or both of the soft wire apertures 154, 166 may be eliminated. In some embodiments, the spring aperture 150 may be eliminated.
  • the control link 82 pushes on the first arm 130 of the bellcrank 50 so that the bellcrank is rotated about the second axis 78 in a clockwise direction.
  • the rotation of the bellcrank 50 results in the governor spring holder 178 pulling the governor spring 90 and increasing the tension applied to the governor arm 86.
  • the increased tension urges the governor system 54 to increase the speed of the engine 30.
  • the speed control cam surface 126 does not contact the ground switch 102, and the engine 30 is permitted to operate or run.
  • the transport link 98 actuates the transport valve system 58 such that fuel is provided from the fuel tank 34 to the carburetor 42.
