【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は汎用エンジンの燃料供給に用いられる回転絞り弁式気化器、殊に全高を低くして小形化を図ったものにおいてアイドル位置における絞り弁回りの気密性を維持することができる回転絞り弁式気化器に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
携帯作業機械や小形車両などの動力源に用いられている汎用2サイクルまたは4サイクルエンジンに燃料を供給する気化器の一つに回転絞り弁式気化器が知られている。この気化器は周知のように、絞り通孔および計量針を有する円柱形の絞り弁を吸気通路に直交させて気化器本体に内装し、この絞り弁を運転者のアクセル操作に応じて回転させながら軸方向へ移動させることにより、絞り通孔の吸気通路との重なり度合いを変えて空気流量を制御すると同時に、計量針の燃料ノズルへの挿入深さを変えて燃料流量を制御するものである。
【0003】
絞り通孔は吸気通路とほぼ同一径に作られており、その中心線はアイドル時に吸気通路の中心線の下方に置かれ全開時に二つの中心線が一致するように絞り弁の回転と上下移動とが行なわれる。
【0004】
一方、このような回転絞り弁式気化器は機械、車両などの性質上空間的余裕が乏しいことや、他機器類との配置上の関係から設置場所の制約が多く、狭い場所に設置できることが要求されるので、小形とすること、殊に全高を低くすることが必要とされている。
【0005】
図5は吸気通路と絞り弁との関係を説明する図であって、気化器本体51に形成した横方向の吸気通路52に直交させて下端を閉止した弁孔53を縦方向に設け、円柱形の絞り弁54を弁孔53に嵌装してその絞り通孔55の吸気通路52との重なり度合いを変えることにより空気流量を制御する。これと同時に、絞り通孔55の内部にノズル口を開口させて下方から突出させた燃料ノズルへの絞り弁54に設けて絞り通孔55に上方から突出させた計量針の挿入深さを変えることにより燃料流量を制御する。絞り通孔55の中心線Xはアイドル位置において吸気通路52の中心線Xよりも低い位置とされ、全開位置においてXと同一高さ位置とされる。
【0006】
ここで、気化器全高を低くして狭い場所での設置が可能であるようにするためには、気化器本体51の下部に設けられる燃料系統、気化器本体51の上方に設けられる絞り弁レバーなど、機能上必須の部品の高さ寸法を小さくできないことから、気化器本体51の高さ寸法、殊に中心線Xからカバー体56を重ねた上面までの高さ寸法Hを小さくしなければならない。一方、弁孔53は絞り弁54が全開位置に上昇できる空間を上部に確保する必要があるので、高さ寸法Hを小さくすると絞り弁54の高さ寸法も小さくしなければならず、特にカバー体56が弁孔53に嵌め込まれる位置決め用の周突縁57を有しているものについては更に高さ寸法を小さくする必要がある。
【0007】
ところが、絞り弁54の高さ寸法を小さくすると、アイドル位置において吸気通路52の頂面と絞り弁54の頂面との高さの差H、即ち吸気通路52の頂面側における弁孔53の内側周面と絞り弁54の外側周面との重なり部分が小さくなり、気密性が低下してアイドリング時の高い吸入負圧により弁孔53の上部空間から吸気通路52に空気が吸い出されて混合気を稀薄化し、アイドリングを不調にするという心配を生じる。このため、アイドル位置における気密性確保を図ってHを大きくすると、絞り弁54の高さ寸法、従ってHが大きくなって気化器全高を低くする、という要求に充分に対応することができなくなる。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は回転絞り弁式気化器の全高を低くして小形化を図るにあたって、気化器本体および絞り弁の高さ寸法を小さくするとアイドル位置における弁孔内側周面と絞り弁外側周面との重なり部分が小さくなって気密性を低下し、アイドリングを不調にする心配があるため、気化器全高を低くするという要求に充分に対応することができなかった、という前記課題を解決するためになされたものであって、その目的とするところは絞り弁のアイドル位置で気密性を確保してアイドリングを不調にする心配を伴うことなく気化器全高が充分に低いものとされた回転絞り弁式気化器を提供することにある。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は気化器本体の横方向へ延びる吸気通路に直交して縦方向へ延びる弁孔に嵌め込まれた円柱形の絞り弁が回転しながら軸方向へ移動して吸入空気流量と燃料流量とを制御する回転絞り弁式気化器がもっている、全高を低いものとすることが困難である、という前記課題を次のようにして解決した。
【0010】
即ち、絞り弁のアイドル位置で吸気通路と向かい合う外側周縁部に弁孔の内側周面に沿って頂面から上方へ突出した壁体を設けるとともに、弁孔の開放端を塞いで気化器本体の上面に重ねたカバー体の弁孔の内側周面に沿う部分に絞り弁の開き位置で壁体を嵌入させる下向きのくぼみを設けたものとした。
【0011】
絞り弁がアイドル位置のとき、吸気通路の頂面側における弁孔内側周面と絞り弁外側周面との重なり部分は壁体によって大きく作られ、気密性を確保してアイドリングを不調にさせない。また、絞り弁が開かれたとき壁体が上昇できる空間をカバー体に設けたくぼみによって確保させたので、弁孔の上方空間を高くしなくても全開に至らせることができ、従って気化器本体の高さ寸法を小さくすることが可能となって気化器全高を低くする、という要求に充分に対応することができる。
【0012】
【発明の実施の形態】
図面を参照して本発明の実施の形態を説明すると、図1に示すように気化器本体1は横方向へ延びる吸気通路2およびこれと直交して縦方向へ延び下端を閉止した円筒形の弁孔3を有し、円柱形の絞り弁4が弁孔3に回転可能且つ軸方向可動に嵌め込まれている。
【0013】
絞り弁4はその中心軸線に直交させて吸気通路2とほぼ同一径の絞り通孔5を有しているとともに、中心軸線上に位置させて絞り弁軸8および計量針17を有している。絞り弁軸8は絞り弁4にその頂面4Aから上方へ突設したボス6に下端部を嵌め込むことによって固結されており、弁孔3の開放端を塞いで気化器本体1の上面1Aに取り付けたカバー体12の軸支孔12Aを貫通して外部に突出し、この突出端に絞り弁レバー10が固着されている。
【0014】
弁孔3の絞り弁4とカバー体12との間の空間14には、これらに両端を固定したねじりコイルばねからなる閉弁ばね11が絞り弁軸8,ボス6を囲み且つ圧縮状態で収装されている。また、絞り弁レバー10の下面には絞り弁軸8を中心とする円弧形のカム15が突出形成されており、その下向きのカム面15Aがカバー体12に突出形成した接触片16に接触させられている。更に、計量針17は基端の雄ねじ頭体18を絞り弁軸8の雌ねじ孔9に螺装することによって絞り弁軸8に下向きに取り付けられ、絞り通孔5に上方から突出長さ可調節に突出している。
【0015】
一方、気化器本体1の下面にはダイヤフラム20によって大気室21から区画された定燃料室19が設けられており、この定燃料室19は図示しない燃料ポンプを経て燃料タンクから送られてくる燃料の一定量を保有する。そして、定燃料室19の燃料は最大流量を規定する主ジェット22,吸気通路2から定燃料室19への空気の流入を阻止する逆止弁23,パイプ状の燃料ノズル24を通ってその周側面に設けたノズル口25より吸気通路2に送出される。燃料ノズル24は絞り弁4の中心軸線上に配置されて絞り通孔5に下方から突出し、計量針17の先端部分を挿入させてノズル口25の開口面積を可変としている。
【0016】
運転者のアクセル操作によって絞り弁レバー10を旋回させると、これと一体に絞り弁4が閉弁ばね11をねじりながら回転し、絞り通孔5の吸気通路2との重なり度合いが大きくなることによって吸入空気流量を増加させる。これと同時に、カム面15Aに接触している接触片16がカム15の高さ増大に従って絞り弁レバー10,絞り弁軸8,絞り弁4を一体に押し上げ、計量針17の燃料ノズル24への挿入深さを浅くしてノズル口25の開口面積を大きくすることによって燃料流量を増加させる。以上は従来の回転絞り弁式気化器と同じである。
【0017】
絞り通孔5は図1,図2(A)および図3(A)に示すアイドル位置で吸気通路2に対し直角とされて吸気通路2と連通しておらず、アイドル空気は絞り弁4の外側周面4Bに設けた周方向へ延びる溝からなるアイドル空気路7を通ってエンジンに送られる。絞り弁4が開きはじめると絞り通孔5が吸気通路2と連通するようになり、図3(B)に示す全開位置で絞り通孔5は吸気通路2と同一中心線上で完全に重なる。即ち、本実施の形態における絞り弁4は、アイドル位置と全開位置との間で90度回転するものとされている。
【0018】
絞り通孔5の中心線Xは吸気通路2の中心線Xに対してアイドル位置で図3(A)に示すようにYだけ低い位置とされ、全開位置で図3(B)に示すように同一高さ位置とされる。
【0019】
絞り弁4は頂面4Aがアイドル位置で吸気通路2の頂面2Aとほぼ同一高さ位置となるように作られており、アイドル位置で吸気通路2と向かい合う外側周縁部に弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って頂面4Aから上方へ突出させて形成した壁体31を有している。
【0020】
壁体31は吸気通路2の上流側および下流側に向かって二個設けられており、それらの上面31Aはアイドル位置において吸気通路2の中心線Xを中心とする円弧形に形成されている。そして、これらの壁体31は吸気通路2の頂面側領域において弁孔3の内側周面3Aと絞り弁4の外側周面4Bとの重なり部分Hを気密保持に充分な大きさに形成するものである。
【0021】
絞り弁4がアイドル位置から開きはじめると、壁体31は弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って周方向へ移動するとともに上方へ移動し、全開位置でアイドル位置から90度位相を変え且つYだけ高い位置に到達する。従って、そのままでは壁体31が上昇可能な高さを弁孔3の空間14に与えなければならず、気化器全高を低くするという目的を達成させることができない。
【0022】
本実施の形態におけるカバー体12は軸支孔12Aを弁孔3と同一中心軸線上に位置させて気化器本体1の上面1Aに重ねることができるように、弁孔3に嵌め込まれる位置決め用の周突縁13を下向きに突出させて有している。この周突縁13は下面がアイドル位置における壁体31の頂端と小さい隙間を有する位置まで弁孔3に嵌め込まれており、吸気通路2と直交する部分に下向きのくぼみ32を有している。
【0023】
くぼみ32は弁孔3の中心軸線を挟んで二個設けられており、それらの下面32Aは吸気通路2の中心線Xを中心とし壁体31の上面31Aよりも少し大径の円弧形に形成されている。そして、壁体31が図1,図2(A)および図3(A)に示すアイドル位置から弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って周方向へ移動しながら上方へ移動すると、くぼみ32に次第に進入して全開位置に至ったとき図3(B)に示すように完全に嵌入した状態となる。
【0024】
本実施の形態によると、アイドル位置で吸気通路2と弁孔3との互いの気密を確保させる壁体31が上昇可能な高さを周突縁13のくぼみ32によって与えたこと、絞り弁4の頂面4Aをアイドル位置で吸気通路2の頂面2Aとほぼ同一高さ位置としたこと、周突縁13の下面とアイドル位置における壁体31の頂端との隙間を狭いものとしたこと、によって重なり部分Hをアイドリング時の気密保持に充分な大きさに形成しても、弁孔3の空間14を小さい高さ、即ち吸気通路2の中心線Xから気化器本体1の上面1Aまでの高さ寸法Hをかなり小さいものとすることができ、その結果気化器本体1の高さ寸法を小さくして気化器全高が低いものとすることができる。
【0025】
図4(A),(B)は本発明の異なる実施の形態の主要部分を示す説明図であって、気化器本体1の上面1Aに弁孔3を囲んで上方へ突出形成した環突起35にカバー体12の下面12Bに形成した環溝36を嵌装することによって、カバー体12が軸支孔12Aを弁孔3と同一中心軸線上に位置させて上面1Aに重ねられている。
【0026】
絞り弁4は頂面4Aがアイドル位置で吸気通路2の頂面2Aとほぼ同一高さ位置となるように作られていること、およびアイドル位置で吸気通路2と向かい合う外側周縁部に弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って頂面4Aから上方へ突出させて形成した壁体41を有していること、は図1乃至図3に示した実施の形態と同じである。
【0027】
吸気通路2の上流側および下流側に向かって設けられた二個の壁体41は、本実施の形態では正面台形状とされており、吸気通路2の頂面側領域において弁孔3の内側周面3Aと絞り弁4の外側周面4Bとの重なり部分Hが気密保持に充分な大きさであるように形成されている。
【0028】
一方、カバー体12は弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って下向きのくぼみ42を吸気通路2と直交する部分に有している。このくぼみ42は弁孔3の中心軸線を挟んで二個設けられ、壁体41よりも少し大きい台形状に形成されている。
【0029】
図4(A)に示すアイドル位置に置かれた絞り弁4が開きはじめると、壁体41は弁孔3の内側周面3Aに沿って周方向へ移動するとともに上方へ移動してくぼみ42に進入する。アイドル位置で絞り通孔5の中心線Xが吸気通路2の中心線XよりYだけ低い位置とされている絞り弁4は、全開位置で90度位相を変え且つYだけ上方へ移動して図4(B)に示すように壁体41がくぼみ42に完全に嵌入した状態となる。
【0030】
本実施の形態ではカバー体12の位置決めを気化器本体1の上面1Aに突設した環突起35とカバー体12の下面12Bに形成した環溝36との嵌まり合いによって行なっており、カバー体12は図1に示すような弁孔3に嵌め込まれる周突縁13を有していない。このため、下面12Bに開放して下向きに設けたくぼみ42の台形上底にあたる下面42Aとアイドル位置における壁体41の台形上底にあたる上面41Aとの間隔をYよりも僅かに大きく、即ちアイドル位置における壁体41の上面41Aを気化器本体1の上面1Aよりも僅かに低い位置とすることができ、このため吸気通路2の中心線Xから気化器本体1の上面1Aまでの高さ寸法H、従って気化器本体の高さ寸法を更に小さくして気化器全高を図1に示したものよりも低くすることができる。
【0031】
尚、図4に示した実施の形態において、図示しない機構は図1に示したものと同じであり、アイドリング時に壁体41が弁孔と吸気通路2との間の気密を保持してアイドリングを不調にさせることがなく、また絞り弁4の開き動作に応じて吸入空気流量と燃料流量とが制御される。
【0032】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、アイドリング時の気密性を確保させる壁体を絞り弁頂面に設けるとともに、絞り弁が開いたときに壁体を嵌入させるくぼみを弁孔のカバー体に設けた本発明によると、アイドリングを不調にする心配を伴うことなく気化器本体および絞り弁の高さ寸法を小さくし、気化器全高が低く狭い場所に設置容易なものとすることができるものである。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a rotary throttle valve carburetor used for fuel supply of a general-purpose engine, and more particularly to a rotary throttle valve which can maintain airtightness around a throttle valve at an idle position in a downsized type with a reduced overall height. The present invention relates to a vaporizer.
[0002]
[Prior art]
BACKGROUND ART A rotary throttle valve type carburetor is known as one of carburetors for supplying fuel to a general-purpose two-cycle or four-cycle engine used for a power source of a portable work machine, a small vehicle, or the like. As is well known, this carburetor is equipped with a cylindrical throttle valve having a throttle hole and a measuring needle, which is installed in the carburetor body orthogonal to the intake passage, and the throttle valve is rotated in response to a driver's accelerator operation. While moving in the axial direction, the air flow rate is controlled by changing the degree of overlap of the throttle hole with the intake passage, and at the same time, the fuel flow rate is controlled by changing the insertion depth of the metering needle into the fuel nozzle. .
[0003]
The throttle hole is made approximately the same diameter as the intake passage, and its center line is located below the center line of the intake passage at idle, and the throttle valve rotates and moves up and down so that the two center lines coincide when fully opened Is performed.
[0004]
On the other hand, such a rotary throttle valve type carburetor has limited space due to the nature of machinery and vehicles, and has many restrictions on the installation location due to the arrangement with other equipment, so that it can be installed in a narrow place. As required, it is necessary to be compact, in particular to reduce the overall height.
[0005]
FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining the relationship between the intake passage and the throttle valve. A valve hole 53 having a lower end closed at right angles to a lateral intake passage 52 formed in a carburetor body 51 is formed in a vertical direction. The throttle valve 54 is fitted in the valve hole 53 and the air flow rate is controlled by changing the degree of overlap of the throttle hole 55 with the intake passage 52. At the same time, the depth of the metering needle that is provided in the throttle valve 54 to the fuel nozzle protruding from below by opening the nozzle port inside the throttle through hole 55 and protruding from above into the throttle through hole 55 is changed. This controls the fuel flow rate. Centerline X T of the throttle hole 55 is a position lower than the center line X P of the intake passage 52 in the idle position, is the same height position and X P at the fully open position.
[0006]
Here, in order to reduce the overall height of the carburetor so that the carburetor can be installed in a narrow place, a fuel system provided at a lower portion of the carburetor body 51 and a throttle valve lever provided above the carburetor body 51 etc., since the inability reduce the height dimension of the features on the essential components, the height of the vaporizer body 51, in particular from the center line X P to the upper surface of extensive cover 56 the height H B reduced There must be. On the other hand, since the valve hole 53, it is necessary to secure a space for the throttle valve 54 can be raised to fully open position at the top, the height dimension of the throttle valve 54 and to reduce the height H B must also be reduced, in particular In the case where the cover body 56 has the peripheral edge 57 for positioning fitted in the valve hole 53, it is necessary to further reduce the height dimension.
[0007]
However, when the height dimension of the throttle valve 54 is reduced, the height difference H T between the top surface of the intake passage 52 and the top surface of the throttle valve 54 at the idling position, that is, the valve hole 53 on the top surface side of the intake passage 52. The overlap between the inner peripheral surface of the throttle valve and the outer peripheral surface of the throttle valve 54 is reduced, airtightness is reduced, and air is sucked from the upper space of the valve hole 53 into the intake passage 52 by a high suction negative pressure during idling. The mixture may be diluted and the idling may be upset. Thus, increasing the H T aim tightness ensured in the idle position, the height dimension of the throttle valve 54, thus H B to lower the vaporizer overall height increases, sufficiently able to correspond to the requirement that Disappears.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention reduces the height of the carburetor body and the throttle valve by reducing the overall height of the rotary throttle valve carburetor and miniaturizing the carburetor. In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, it was not possible to sufficiently cope with the demand for reducing the overall height of the vaporizer because there was a concern that the overlapped portion was reduced and the airtightness was reduced and idling was malfunctioned. The purpose of the carburetor is to achieve sufficient airtightness at the idle position of the throttle valve and reduce the idling of the throttle valve without having to worry about causing the carburetor to have a sufficiently low overall height. To provide equipment.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, a cylindrical throttle valve fitted in a valve hole extending in the vertical direction perpendicular to the intake passage extending in the horizontal direction of the carburetor body moves in the axial direction while rotating, thereby reducing the intake air flow rate and the fuel flow rate. The above problem that the rotary throttle valve type vaporizer to be controlled has and that it is difficult to reduce the total height is solved as follows.
[0010]
That is, a wall protruding upward from the top surface along the inner peripheral surface of the valve hole is provided at the outer peripheral portion facing the intake passage at the idle position of the throttle valve, and the open end of the valve hole is closed to form the carburetor body. A downward recess for fitting the wall body at the opening position of the throttle valve is provided in a portion along the inner peripheral surface of the valve hole of the cover body stacked on the upper surface.
[0011]
When the throttle valve is at the idle position, the overlapping portion between the inner peripheral surface of the valve hole and the outer peripheral surface of the throttle valve on the top surface side of the intake passage is made large by the wall body, thereby ensuring airtightness and preventing idling. In addition, since the space in which the wall body can rise when the throttle valve is opened is secured by the recess provided in the cover body, the valve can be fully opened without increasing the space above the valve hole. The height dimension of the main body can be reduced, and it is possible to sufficiently cope with the requirement of reducing the overall height of the vaporizer.
[0012]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Referring to the drawings, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, a carburetor body 1 has an intake passage 2 extending in a horizontal direction and a cylindrical shape having a lower end closed perpendicularly to the intake passage 2 in a vertical direction. A cylindrical throttle valve 4 having a valve hole 3 is rotatably and axially fitted into the valve hole 3.
[0013]
The throttle valve 4 has a throttle through hole 5 having a diameter substantially the same as that of the intake passage 2 perpendicular to the center axis thereof, and has a throttle valve shaft 8 and a measuring needle 17 located on the center axis. . The throttle valve shaft 8 is fixed to the throttle valve 4 by fitting a lower end thereof into a boss 6 projecting upward from a top surface 4A thereof, and closes an open end of the valve hole 3 to form an upper surface of the vaporizer main body 1. The cover body 12 attached to the cover body 1A penetrates through a shaft support hole 12A and protrudes to the outside.
[0014]
In a space 14 between the throttle valve 4 of the valve hole 3 and the cover body 12, a valve-closing spring 11 composed of a torsion coil spring having both ends fixed thereto surrounds the throttle valve shaft 8 and the boss 6 and is stored in a compressed state. Is equipped. An arcuate cam 15 centering on the throttle valve shaft 8 is formed on the lower surface of the throttle valve lever 10, and its downward cam surface 15 </ b> A contacts the contact piece 16 formed on the cover body 12. Have been allowed. Further, the measuring needle 17 is attached downward to the throttle valve shaft 8 by screwing the male screw head 18 at the base end into the female screw hole 9 of the throttle valve shaft 8, and the length of the measuring needle 17 is adjustable from above to the throttle through hole 5. It protrudes.
[0015]
On the other hand, on the lower surface of the carburetor main body 1, a constant fuel chamber 19 partitioned from an atmosphere chamber 21 by a diaphragm 20 is provided. The constant fuel chamber 19 is provided with a fuel supplied from a fuel tank via a fuel pump (not shown). Holds a certain amount of The fuel in the constant fuel chamber 19 passes through a main jet 22 that regulates the maximum flow rate, a check valve 23 that prevents air from flowing into the constant fuel chamber 19 from the intake passage 2, and a pipe-shaped fuel nozzle 24. It is delivered to the intake passage 2 from a nozzle port 25 provided on the side surface. The fuel nozzle 24 is disposed on the central axis of the throttle valve 4 and projects from the throttle through hole 5 from below, and the tip area of the measuring needle 17 is inserted to make the opening area of the nozzle port 25 variable.
[0016]
When the throttle valve lever 10 is turned by the driver's accelerator operation, the throttle valve 4 is rotated integrally with the throttle valve lever 10 while twisting the valve-closing spring 11, and the degree of overlapping of the throttle through hole 5 with the intake passage 2 is increased. Increase the intake air flow. At the same time, the contact piece 16 which is in contact with the cam surface 15A pushes the throttle valve lever 10, the throttle valve shaft 8 and the throttle valve 4 together as the height of the cam 15 increases. The fuel flow rate is increased by reducing the insertion depth and increasing the opening area of the nozzle port 25. The above is the same as the conventional rotary throttle valve type carburetor.
[0017]
The throttle hole 5 is at a right angle to the intake passage 2 at the idle position shown in FIGS. 1, 2A and 3A, and is not in communication with the intake passage 2, and idle air flows through the throttle valve 4. The air is sent to the engine through an idle air passage 7 formed of a circumferentially extending groove provided on the outer peripheral surface 4B. When the throttle valve 4 starts to open, the throttle hole 5 communicates with the intake passage 2, and the throttle hole 5 completely overlaps with the intake passage 2 on the same center line at the fully open position shown in FIG. That is, the throttle valve 4 in the present embodiment is rotated by 90 degrees between the idle position and the fully open position.
[0018]
