" The constructionV of'V A'these parts 'VisA such i that,Whendesired'the operator of "thevfve-V hiclemay, byfmoving'lthe rofd 50jlongitu- .dnalIy, effectief rocking lof the shaftf4rif` to A l'butterfiy valve 55 is fixedly mounted upona shaft 56 which is projected through the portion 14. Fixedly mounted upon'the shaft exteriorof the carburetor is an army "''to' Which is pivotally connected an operating rod '58 directed toa position accessible to vthe operator vof the vehicle, this ,rod 58 being [commonly ltermed the ,throttle rod. The ar1n57 is connected vby the link 59 to -anarm 60 which. is fixedly mountedupon the stem 39: exterior of the carburetor. e The connection of the link 59 with the arm 60I is jeffected'by means of a` vstud orbolt-62Which 1s projected through a slotl formed in the link 59'..y Y. v

e The structure isA such that when the operator desires to Vmove the throttle to feed i fuel tothe engine the butterfly valve 48 will normallybe in the position shownin Fig. 1. Whenpthe operatorstarts the engine the butterfly valve will be openedby operating the throttlerod 58. Asthe engine is 'started the' suction .from the engine will 23 to permit passage of .air around t 6;,fpe1phery ofthe disc, the ribs on. the

.lchamberfl2 spacing the Yperiphery of the -disc 21mfrom the inner surfaceof thechambertl2, the ldisc 21 `seating `When in the posi- `tionfshovvnin Fig. l at the bottomV of the chamber l2 and effectively closing this chamber against entry of air thereinto.- As thefsuction raises the disc 2l on:1 ofyits seat the air-isf permitted to'pass, through the air intakel? andlmiizv with the fuel-inthe mixing chamber 1 2andinthe delivery conduits `13 vandfl4.V It Ais ythus seen thatas inthe invention referred toin my previous applition Athe Vdelivery of .fuel to the mixing chamf beris controlled by the Suction of the engine,

the fhead 44' being slightly unseatedl as the `disclT .21@ `*moves e vertically upwardly. AThe `fuelf..fiovving .into the lchamber 26 will pass through the passage `3l, the needlevalve; 36

.beingjladjgusted' to permitthe entry of lthe proper amount of fuelginto this` chamber.

As the speed increasiesand a larger amount of fuell is desired'for: consumption than will pasvs'fthroughtheqpassage V31 the .throttle rod r,58 being moved; ,a sufficient distance y Ycauses. the pin 62 .to engage, the end .of Y.the

slot 6l,l after Whichyfurther movement of the throttle-'rod 58 `will 'effect aVV longitudinal movement.of"the"stem 39 soas to permit Vpassagefof fuel intothe-chamber 26through 'iso s the

passages

28 and 29. The needle valve 33 is previously adjusted toy permit the passage of the desired amount of fuel through these

passages

28 and 29.

With this arrangement there is provided a primaryfuel inlet controland asecondary fuel inlet control', the secondarycontrol being operated to permit the delivery of additional fuel to the engine only after the fuel vconsumption ofthe engine has reached `a certain degree so that when driving at low speeds a smaller amount Vof fuel is delivered to the engine thanl at higher speeds. Furthermore when `the speed of the engine reaches-a certainY degree toeffecta proportionateincrease in speed or power of the engine 1t 1s necessary that Va larger propor Y tionate amount befdelivered to the engine with said fuel chamber through a primary and to effect this ythe auxiliary control is brought into operation 4 While I have illustrated and described the preferred form of structure I doV not wish to limit myself Vto the yprecise embodiment ofthe structure shown,` but desire .to avail myself ofsuch variations and modification y ascome withinthe scope` of the appended' claim. r Y i Y Having thus describedjmy invention what I claim as new and desire'to secure by Letters Patent is:` t
