Abstract
206,185. Watkinson, W. H. June 1, 1922. Indicators actuated by pressure of head of liquid. - In a system for generating steam for injecting fuel into the cylinder of an internal combustion engine a receptacle, G is provided with which is associated a water level indicator H having a gauge glass which communicates by pipes h<1> and h<3> with the top and bottom respectively of the vessel G. Chambers h<2>, h<4> of larger cross section than the pipes are provided, these chambers being optionally connected by a pipe. The chamber h<4> and lower portion of pipe h<3> are filled with a heavy liquid such as mercury or carbon tetrachloride, and the pipe h<1> with water up to the chamber h<2>. If carbon tetrachloride is used it is coloured by a suitable dye insoluble in water.
Tank for medium pressure fuel with in-tank fuel pump, e.g. for use with internal combustion engines, has main and second reservoirs connected to each other, with fuel pump sucking fuel out of second reservoir and feed it to fuel supply pipe
