WILLIAM SEILER, (JF'KOKOMQITNDIANA, ASSIG-NOB OF ONE-THIRD'TO CHARLES EIAMMOND, OF KOKOMO, INDIAN AUTGMOBILE LOCK.
Application filed July 12,
. To all whom it may concern:
"Be it knownthatL'lVILLIAM'SEILER, a citizen of the United States, residing, at Kokomo, in the county of Howard and State ofIndiana, have invented new and useful and is an improvement over my former Pat- 7 ent No. 1,832,? 65, issued March 2, 1920, and
the primefeature of the-present invention is. the provision of an extended neck or outlet for the carbureter so that a lock mecha-' nism may be introduced in said neck at a point between the carbureter' proper and the end of the intake manifold attached to the neck for conveying the fuel from the carbureter to the engine.
A further feature of the invention is the provision of a valve so constructed that it will automaticallv close and cut off the fuel from the engine when the lock mechanism is set in one position and be opened and held in open position when the lock mechanism is set in another position.
A further feature of the invention is the provision of means for attaching the extended neck portion of the carburetor direct to the engine.
Other objects and advantages will be hereinafter more fully set forth and pointed out in the accompanying specification.
In the accompanying drawings which are made a part of this application,
Figure 1 is an end elevation of an engine with the improved lock mechanism attached thereto.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view as seen on line 22, Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings, 1 indicates an engine of the internal combustion type and having the usual intake manifold 2 attached thereto through which the fuel is conveyed from the carbureter 3, which may be of any preferred type and having an extended neck 4 thereon.
The neck 4 is provided with a duct 5 through which the fuel passes from the carbureter into the intake manifold 2, the duct preferably turning at right angles at its end farthest from the carbureter so as to conveniently communicate with the opening in the intake manifold.
Extending across the duct 5 and between the carbureter and the discharge end of the Specificationlof Letters'Patent.
Patented Mar. 28,1922.
1920. Serial No. 395,449.
duct is a bridge wall 6, in which is' formed an opening 7 and in this opening is threaded a seat 8 having a valve opening 9 therethrough.
Cooperating with the valve opening 9 is a valve 10 of the ball type which fits into a housing 11, preferably formed integral with the bridge wall 6 and is spaced from the interior wall of the duct to form a passage 12 for the fuel on its course from the carbur'eter to the manifold 2, the wall of the housing having a slot 13 through which thefuel may pass to the interior of said housing.
The valve 10 is automatically closed and held in closed position by means of a spring 14, one end of which bears against the closed end of the housing 11 and the other end against the valve 10, and when the valve is closed the supply of fuel is cut off from the engine. To render the engine absolutely inoperative except to those having the right to operate the automobile to which the engine is attached, the valve is to be opened and held in open position while the engine is being driven by a suitable lock mechanism, preferably a combination lock 15, comprisingthe usual tumblers 16, which, when set on a certain combination, permits the forcing of the valve 10 to open position and retains the valve in open position on then scattering the combination of the lock. To close the valve again, the tumblers 16 must be properly arranged to permit raising of 22, when spring 14 will close the valve.
To prevent leakage of the fuel through the parts of the casing surrounding the lock structure 15, a diaphragm 17 is introduced between the lock and the valve 9 and is secured in position by a sleeve 18 which is threaded into the casing surrounding the lock and forces the diaphragm against a shoulder 19 to form a perfect seal. This forms a cavity 20 between the valve seat and the diaphragm into which the fuel enters after passing through the valve opening 9, the fuel passing from said cavity through a port 21 and into the right-hand side of duct 5.
For convenience of operation, the innermost tumbler 16 has a plunger 22 which engages and operates the diaphragm and a similar plunger 23 is attached to the inner face of the diaphragm for engagement with the ball valve 10. The lock mechanism 15 is also provided with an operating rod 24 which preferably extends to any suitable point on the vehicle.
The neck 4: is' extended a distance beyond the end of the duct 5 so that the neck may be attached directly to parts of the engine, any suitable means being provided for attaching the neck to the engine, such as a flange or cars 25, through which pass bolts 26.
The invention claimed is:
l. The combination with an internal combustion engine, of a carbureter, an elongated horizontally extending neck on said carbureter and extending from the carbueter to the casing for said engine, said neck having a fuel duct extending longitudinally therethrough, a valve in said duct between the carbureter and engine for closing communication through said duct, a lock mechanism 'for opening said valve and means for attaching said neck direct to the engine casing.
2. The combination with an internal combustion engine, of a carbureter, an elongated horizontally extending neck integral with said carbureter having a fuel duct extending longitudinally thereof the discharge end of said duct being upwardly curved, an intake manifold communicating with the curved end of said duct for conveying the fuel to the engine, a valve for closing communication through said duct at a point between the carbureter and the discharge end of the duct, a combination lock mechanism for opening said valve, and means for attaching said neck direct to the engine casing.
3. The combination with an internal combustion engine, of a carbureter, an elongated horizontally extending neck integral therewith, said carbureter having a fuel ductextending longitudinally therethrough, a valve in said duct between the carbureter and the discharge end of the duct, means for auto matically closing said valve, a diaphragm for opening said valve, a lock mechanism for forcing said diaphragm against said valve, and means for attaching said neck direct to the engine casing.
In testimony whereof I hereto afiix my signature.
WILLIAM SEILER.
