4 Claims.
This invention relates to fuel injection apparatus and ignition apparatus for internal combustion engines and more particularly to an ignition timer and fuel injection pump unit which may be readily mounted upon the engine and which has a single drive connection therewith.
An object of the invention is to provide a combined fuel injection pump and ignition timer unit for internal combustion engines.
Another object of the invention is to provide such a unit which is interchangeable on existing engines with the ignition timing apparatus whereby such engines may be readily adapted for utilizing fuel injection to replace the carburetion system of such engines.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved unit which comprises the ignition timing apparatus together with a fuel injection unit which meters, distributes and injects the fuel and which unit may be readily mounted on existing engines in place of the ignition timing and distributing means previously employed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved low cost, fuel injection pump for gasoline, spark ignition engines.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved fuel injection unit for use on engines which is applicable to existing engines embodying carburetors with minimum changes and utilizing a single drive connection with which the engine is already provided for both ignition timing and fuel injection.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings. It will be understood that many changes may be made in the details of construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the invention as set forth in the accompanying claims, the preferred form having been given by way of illustration only.
Referring to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a side view of an ignition timing and fuel injection pump unit embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a top or plan view thereof Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3--3 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the arrows;
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 3 looking in the direction of the arrows;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary. sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 4 looking in the direction of the arrows; and
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary, sectional view taken on line 6--6 of Fig. 4 looking in the direction of the arrows.
The advantages of employing fuel injection systems rather than the conventional carburetor on engines have become so well known that it is not believed necessary to state them all here. The principal advantages of such systems are increased power, greater economy, broader fuel range, that is, the possibility of using cheaper grades of fuel with less tendency for detonation, and increased performance.
It is the principal object of the present invent on to provide means whereby such fuel injection system may be incorporated in existing carburetor type engines with minimum changes and at relatively economical installations by the provision of a new, combined ignition timing means and fuel injection apparatus adapted to be readily mounted upon the engine and be driven by the conventional engine drive already provided for driving the conventional ignition timing apparatus.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, wherein similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the device embodying the invention includes a housing I having an open lower side which is adapted to be closed by the cover member 2 which is secured to the housing I by screws or the like 3 of suitable size and number and said cover 2 is provided with the integral tubular shank 4 adapted to fit within the recess or socket which is provided in conventional gasoline engines for receiving the drive of the ignit on timing apparatus. The shank 4 provides a bearing for the drive shaft 5 which extends through the distributor sleeve 9 in the housing I and through the shank 4 and is connected by gearing, not shown, with a rotatable part of the engine, preferably the valve operating shaft in the convent onal manner.
Adjacent the upper end portion of the housing I is provided the housing member 1 adapted to cont in the conventional ignition timing a paratus adapted to be operated by a cam, not shown, carried on the reduced extension 8 of the shaft 5.
The shaft 5 has the helical groove 9 adapted to draw excess lubricant from the gear chamber Ill out of said chamber and into the engine crankca e. Opening II is provided for external lubrication of the unit. The shaft 5 is al o provided with the gasket ring l2 to prevent the lubricant from entering the electrical compartment.
One end of a vacuum line (not shown) is consaid pinion l1 and shank l8 as previously denected to the outlet l3, which is connected to the scribed. peripheral groove 14, and said vacuum line is By adjusting the reduced extension ISA on the connected at its other end to the intake manifold eccentric sleeve l9b by means of the set screws 20 to draw out any fuel leaking in the direction of' and 2|, one of which is loosened and the other the electrical compartment and which might i n it is p l to adjust h p i i n f otherwise reach the electrical compartment. he ShQe IB and thereby a lu the p r n The plunger drive gear I5 is keyed to the shaft mid position along its axis to reduce the q y 5 by the key I s and said gear is adapted to be f fu l p p one n and l n usly inrotated upon rotation of said shaft and to simul-JO Crease e q y of fuel Du ped 0n the other taneously rotate the plunger drive pinion H which end of Bald P un er and thereby qualize the disis in mesh therewith and which is provided with' r bu on of fuel to all outlets. the reduced shank I8 which carries the plunger From the pl bOre 8 e fuel s p pe drive shoe [9 which is eccentrically positioned in through the ports 43: and 44 alternately as each a hole or groove in the upper end of said shank of the pumpi g portions of the plunger operates l8 and adapted to be rotated upon rotation of On its p g Stroke a sald fuel reaches the said pinion I I and shank i8. check valves 45 and 46.
