Abstract

PURPOSE:To restrain carbon from being bitten in at an air fuel mixer mixing combustion air and fuel gas, by forming into an arc shape an end edge portion at a perimeter side surface portion located at least far from a valve shaft, at the perimeter side surface of a throttle valve. CONSTITUTION:A gas mixer 1 has a venturi portion 5 formed at a passage 4 inside a body 3 connected to the air suction port 2 of an gas engine, and a throttle valve 7 whose opening/closing is controlled with a revolution number controlling tool, is arranged on the side of the air suction port 2 rather than this venturi portion 5. And gas fuel such as city gas or the like and combustion air are supplied to the venturi portion 5 respectively from a gas supply source 8 through a fuel supply quantity control tool 9 and through an air cleaner 10. In this instance, the throttle valve 7's valve body 11 supported at a valve box 13 through a valve shaft 12, is formed into an approximate ellipse shape in opposition to the shape of a passage inner perimeter surface 14, and the front and rear end edge portions 16 of the perimeter side surface 15 of this valve body 11 are respectively formed into circular arc shapes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an air-fuel mixer for a gas engine operated using gaseous fuel such as city gas or liquefied petroleum gas.

(Prior art) The air-fuel mixer (hereinafter simply referred to as mixer) for a gas engine has almost the same structure as the carburetor for a gasoline engine, and uses a diaphragm type fuel supply amount control device ( Gaseous fuel is sucked in through a zero governor (zero governor), and the supply of air-fuel mixture is adjusted by a throttle valve that is opened and closed by a rotational speed controller (governor).

(Problem to be solved) However, in conventional mixers, based on the same concept as in gasoline engines, the throttle valve in the mixer is designed to improve its closing performance when fully closed, as shown in Figure 6. The edge portion on the side surface is formed into a pin angle shape. In the case of a gasoline engine, there is no problem with the above-described structure, but in the case of a mixer for a gas engine, there is a problem in that the control performance of the engine rotation is deteriorated.

When we investigated the cause of this problem, we found that in gasoline engines, there is almost no carbon accumulation on the inner circumferential surface of the passage where the throttle valve is installed; It was found that carbon was deposited on the surface, and this deposited carbon affected valve operation.

In other words, in the case of a gasoline engine, carbon adhering to the inner peripheral surface of the passage is washed away by the blown-back fuel and carried away into the combustion chamber by the inflow mixer, whereas in the case of a gas engine, the blown-back fuel is expected to have a cleaning effect. This results in carbon being deposited on the inner circumferential surface of the passage. Carbon that accumulates on the inner peripheral surface of the passage in the throttle valve installation area often accumulates unevenly, so when the throttle valve is fully closed, a gap is created in the area where the amount of accumulation is small, causing the engine speed to increase.

Further, the accumulated carbon causes the valve body to stick, making it difficult for the valve body to operate when opening the valve from the fully closed position, causing the engine speed to become too low, or in severe cases, causing the engine to stop.

The valve is characterized in that the end edge portion of the circumferential surface at least in a portion of the circumferential surface located far from the valve shaft is formed into an arc shape.

(Function) In the present invention, the end edge of at least the portion of the circumferential surface of the throttle valve located far from the valve shaft is formed in an arc shape, so that the amount of carbon trapped on the valve surface is reduced. Therefore, even if carphone accumulates unevenly, it is difficult to form a gap on the circumferential surface when the valve body is fully closed, and the valve body is likely to separate from the carbon layer when the valve body is opened from the fully closed position.
