Application fled October 30, 1931, Serial No This invention relates to a spray carburetor, with a spraying tube passing transversely through the mixing chamber, and an axially displaceable plunger tube which 5 forms a part of the conduit for the light:

load mixture. It is known in such carburetors to dividethe annular space between the spraying tube and the plunger tube by a transverse wall, so that the spraying aperture in the lower part of the spraying tube and the mixture inlet to the pilot opening are separated from one another (e. g. German Patent No. 380,276).

The present invention is'characterized in that the separating wall between the spraying nozzle passage and the pilot passage of the s raying 'tube is arranged adjustably mova 1e opposite an aperture connecting the pilot passage with the mixing chamber on I 0 the atmosphere side of the throttle valve,

with the object of supplying auxiliary air in such a manner that the auxiliary air aperture can be more or less-opened according to the need of the air.

Preferabl the separating wall is connected to t e axially displaceable plunger tube, so that it can be adjusted therewith in a simple manner.

The invention contemplates moreover the provision of a connection permeable to the air between the pilot passage and the spraying passage of the spraying tube, so that when strong suction occurs on the spraying nozzle, e. g. when running with full load, passage of air from the pilot passage into the spraying passage occurs, so as to dilute the full load mixture. 7

This arrangement renders it possible to regulate the partial load mixture so that it is moderately rich, without as was hitherto the case, obtaining on that account, a too rich full load mixture.

The method of carrying out the invention is shown in the drawings in which Figure 11 is a longitudinal section through the spraying tube.

Figures 2 and 3 are partial sections on a larger scale of the spraying tube, for ditferent positions of the separating wall.

Figures 4-6 show the operation of the car buretor'for light, partial and. full loads.

a is the: spraying tube which traverses the mixing chamber 10 and dips at its lower end into a float chamber 11. The fuel .passes through a calibrated opening I; in the spraying tube a, which tube is also connected to an auxiliary fuel chamber 12 by an aperture c.

The auxiliary fuel chamber 12 communicates with the atmosphere by a braking air hole 13. d is the spraying aperture of the spraying tube a. In the spraying tube a is axially arranged a plunger tube 6 which by means of a screw head f may be regulably moved in and out. A look nut g secures the plunger tube (2 against accidental displacement. I

On the plunger tube 6 there is fixed a band h (e. g. a pusher on collar) which leaves free only a narrow annular air passage 71 between the collar itself andthe wall of the spraying tube a and which divides the space between the spraying tube a and the plunger tube into a lower spraying passage is and an upper pilot passage m. The pilot assage m communicates by means of a calibrated aperture 01. in the plunger tube with the interior of the latter, by an aperture 0 in the spraying tube a with the pilot passage 15 which .leads to the pilot aperture 14 in the outlet passage of the mixing chamber on the engine side of the throttle valve when that valve is in the closed or nearly closed position shown in Fig. 4. According to the invention, the pilot passage. we also communicates by a further opening p. in the s ra in tube a with the mixin chamber" P y g g on the atmosphere side of the throttle valve. The opening 12 andthe band it are so arranged with respect to one another, that by screwing in or out of the tube e, the air aperture p can be more or less covered up by means of the band it (Figures 2' and 3). Thethrottle valve of the carburetor is de noted by 16.

The method of action of the carburetor is diagrammatically shown in Figures 4-6. For a light load (Figure 4) the greatest lowering of pressure prevails at the pilot with the fuel sucked out of the plunger tubee in .smalljainount' on this account, as foam air.

With a partial load (Figure 5), spraying first occurs at the pilot aperture 14 on account of the great static lowering of pressure, fuel. also emerging from the spraying aperture (1 into the air stream in the mixing chamber. With increasing throttle opening the static lowering of pressure falls at the pilot aperture 14, while the dynamic lowering of pressure at the aperture p increases due to'the increased velocity of the air stream past the spraying tube a and that aperture'p' therein, until a back flow of air occurs through the pilotaperture 14 and the pilot passage 15, m, to the opening 1) as shown in Fig. 6.

' Fort-he full load position of the throttle, the dynamic lowering of pressure at the spraying aperture d increases to such an extent-that auxiliary air is drawn through .the

annular slit 2' between the band h and the spraying tube a, out of the pilot passage m and into the spraying passage K, and mixed with the emerging fueL By this air addition, the emergence of fuel is checked. On this account the partial load mixture for small throttle openings can be regulated to be very rich, to render possible a quick transition to full load and also to have an adequate mixture for low speeds of rotation.

In spite of this, the richpartial load mixture will not become too rich on passing over .to the full load and high speeds of rotation because the air drawn from the pilot passage m, checks the fuel, so that the full- 7 load gas mixture is poorer.
