Application August 31, 1948, Serial No. 47,086
Cur invention relates generally to carburetors for internal combustion engines and more particularly to the idling fuel supply systems therefor.
In the conventional carburetor, it is the usual practice to provide a bypass conduit to conduct liquid fuel past the throttle valve so that when the latter is nearly closed, e. g., in idling condition, a small amount of fuel will still be supplied to the engine for idling purposes. When the throttle is nearly closed, as stated, a partial vacuum is created in the intake manifold and serves to draw the liquid fuel through the aforesaid bypass. It is further practice to provide such idling fuel conduit with a needle valve so that iohte amount of idling fuel delivered may be regua ed.
One of the disadvantages of the system just described is that the fuel, usually gasoline, is delivered in an unatomized liquid condition into the intake manifold, thus making for very inefficient operation of the engine during idling conditions. This undesirable condition of the fuel during idling period is due to the fact that the air is supplied through the intake manifold past the nearly closed throttle valve and when it reaches the idling fuel inlet, is moving at a relatively low velocity. Thus, there is no atomizing effect of the air on the fuel with the result that the latter is delivered in relatively large droplets, rather than in atomized form, as is the case with fuel delivered by the high speed jets into a relatively high velocity air stream.
Some efforts have been made in the past to overcome the above difliculty by providing an auxiliary airinlet port immediately adjacent the needle valve controlling the idling fuel. In some cases, this has been done by drilling an axial hole clear through the needle valve to admit air at the tip of the needle valve where it is mixed with the liquid fuel. The disadvantage of this latter arrangement is that while the needle valve serves to regulate the flow of liquid fuel, the axial airbleed hole through the center of the needle valve is unaffected by adjustment thereof and thus it is impossible .to properly regulate the mixture of air and fuel.
Still other efforts have been made to provide air-bleed passages through the needle valve by drilling an axial hole partially through the needle valve and then connecting the same with a radial hole through the side of the valve.
A single radial hole of the type just described is not satisfactory, however, since rotation of the valve for the purpose of adjusting the needle relative to its seat rotates the air-bleed hole to 5 Claims. (Cl. 183-44) various positions with respect to the adjacent fuel passage. Thus, the radial hole through which air is admitted to mix with the fuel may or may not be in an optimum position when the needle valve is adjusted to its optimum position relative to the seat.
A still further disadvantage encountered with previous air-bleed systems of the class described is that the air-bleed passage, being necessarily small, tends to become plugged with the everpresent grease and dirt vifhich accumulates on automotive engines. Still further, particles of dirt or other foreign matter may enter through the air-bleed hole, but become lodged in the fuel passage, whereby to completely clog the idling fuel supply and prevent the engine from idling at all.-
Bearing in mind the foregoing disadvantages of previous idling fuel supply systems, it is a major object of the present invention to provide means for admitting a supply of air into the idling fuel system whereby to eifect efiicient motor operation during idling periods.
It is another object-of our invention to provide an air passage of the class described which is incorporated in the needle valve'itself in order that such valve may be replaced in existing engines to increase theefliciency thereof.
It is still another object of my invention to provide a needle valve having an air passage therein which is adapted for eflicient operation regardless of the adjusted position of the needle thereof.
A further object of the invention is to provide an air-bleed needle valve of the class described which incorporates a filter to prevent clogging of the air or fuel passages of the idling system in which the valve is incorporated.
The foregoing and other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description thereof, such consideration being given also to the attached drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is an elevational section through a portion of a conventional carburetor manifold, having the novel needle valve incorporated in the idling fuel supply system thereof;
Figure 2 is an enlarged elevational section of the valve shown in Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a section taken on the line 33 in Figure 2; and
Figure 4 is an enlarged elevational partial section of a slightly modified form of the valve shown in Figure 1.
In the drawings, we have illustrated the needle valve of the present invention as incorporated in an up-draft carburetor of conventional design although it will be realized that the device is equally useful in other types of carburetors. Only the upper manifold portion 5 of the conventional carburetor is shown, the manifold portion 5 being provided with the usual attachment flanges 6 and bolt holes 1, whereby the carburetor is secured to the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine.
The main supply of air-fuel mixture for high speed operation flows through a main passageway 8, moving upwardly in the direction of the arrow shown in Figure 1, being regulated by a throttle valve 9 which is rotatable on a shaft in from a longitudinal or open throttle position to a transverse or closed throttle position in the usual manner.
When the throttle 9 is in nearly closed position, as illustrated in Figure 1 the rate of air flow through the main passageway 8 is relatively small with the result that practically no fuel is supplied through the main high speed jets of the carburetor in the venturi (not shown). Thus, for idling purposes, an auxiliary fuel supply must be provided. In the present instance, this auxiliary fuel supply is provided through a liquid fuel passage 12 formed integrally with the manifold 5, the passage 12 having its lower end located in a liquid fuel well (not shown) whereby the partial vacuum condition existing above the throttle during idling conditions will cause liquid fuel to rise in the passageway i2 and discharge through a transverse connecting passageway l3 into the main passageway 8. The rate at which liquid fuel is delivered through the passageways l2 and I3 into the main passageway 8 is regulated by means of a needle valve IS having a conical needle portion 3! which may be moved toward or away from a conical seat Hi formed in the transverse passageway l3.
The needle valve I6 is provided with a threaded shank 22 received in a threaded opening in the carburetor body 5. In order to hold the valve 15 in any adjusted position thereof, a relatively stiff compression spring IT is secured under the head thereof whereby to exert a constant axial thrust outwardly on the valve l6 whereby to prevent the same from rotating due to the vibration of the engine.
For a detailed description of the construction of the valve 16, reference should now be had to Fig. 2, wherein it will be seen that the valve is formed with a relatively large diameter threaded shank 22, a reduced diameter needle portion at having a conical point 31. A generally flat head 23 is formed on the upper end of the shank 22, the head being provided with peripheral serrations 26, and a transverse slot 21. The upper and lower edges of the head 23 are heavily chamfered, as indicated by the reference characters 24 and 25.
In order to provide the filter hereinbefore mentioned, a cup-shaped cap is pressed onto the head 23, having a light press fit with the points of the peripheral serrations 26.
An indentation 2! is formed in the upper wall of the cap 2!) which indentation engages the top of the head 23 as illustrated in Figure 2, thus preventing the cap from coming into complete face-to-face engagement with the upper surface of the head 23.
An air-bleed passageway is provided in the valve 16, comprising an axial passage 28 connected by a plurality of transverse passages '19,
4 having their exits in the needle portion 38 at the lower end of the valve I6. It will be noted that, in the form shown in Figure 4, there are three transverse passages 29, although more may be provided if desired.
Thus, it will be noted that a passageway for air to be introduced with the fuel through the transverse idling passageway 13, is formed in the valve [6. The air enters this air-bleed passageway through the serrations 26 into a chamber 32 at the top of the valve. From the chamber 32, the air travels through the slot 21 into the axial passageway 28 from whence it discharges through the radial passages 29 adjacent the upper end of. the liquid fuel passageway 12. Practically all particles of dirt or other material are filtered out by the passage of the air through the numerous small spaces or channels formed by the serrations 26 and since there are a large number of these serrations, the tendency for the air passageway to become completely clogged is virtually eliminated. It should be noted in passing that the relatively wide chamfers Z4 and 25 reduce the width of the serrated'periphery 26 whereby to reduce the air friction pressure drop as the air passes into the chamber 32.
It should also be noted that the velocity of the air passing through the valve I6 is greatly reduced in the chamber 32 and that any small particles of heavy material which might have been drawn through the serrations 26 will tend to remain trapped in the chamber 32 due to the fact that they are no longer suspended by the moving air stream. Since the cap 20 is a light press fit on the head 23, it may be removed and cleaned occasionally in order to get rid of any particles of dirt which may adhere to the serrations 26 or may have become entrapped in the chamber 32.
It has been found by experimentation that the optimum position of the transverse passageways 29 with respect to the vertical fuel passageway it" is one in which the passageway 29 is neither directly opposed to the liquid fuel passageway (2 nor is 'on the opposite side of the valve 16 from the pasageway 12, i. 6., pointing upwardly in Figure 1. Optimum mixture of the air enter ing through the valve [6 with the liquid fuel moving through the passageways l2 and iii is achieved when one, at least, of the radial passageways 29 is somewhat transversely positioned with respect to the vertical passageway if. It will be seen, therefore, that by providing a number of radial passages 29 angularly spaced around the needle portion 30, one at least will always be located substantially at the side of the valve 16 and thus in optimum position.
Due to the fact that the needleportion 3!) is of considerably less diameter than the outside diameter of the threaded opening 15, an annular mixing chamber 33 is formed immediately above the upper end of the liquid fuel passageway 12. The air entering" into the mixing chamber 33 through the orifices of the passageways 28 has ample opportunity therefore to mix with or froth the liquid fuel, thus greatly increasing the combustion eiiiciency thereof during the idling period.
In some carburetor designs, the seat against which the needle valve is moved to close the idling fuel passageway is located a considerable distance inwardly of the. liquid fuelpassageway [-2. In such instances, it is desirable that the needle valve I6 be modified to elongate the needle portion as indicated by the reference character 30a in Figure 4. In such modified valves, the mouths of the transverse passageways 29 are placed close to the juncture between the needle portion 3641 and the threaded shank 22. It will be noted that, in the form illustrated in Figure 4, four transverse or radial passageways 29 have been employed, instead of three as shown in Figure 2.
While the valve shown and described herein is fully capable of achieving the objects and providing the advantages hereinbefore stated, it is capable of considerable modification without departing from the spirit of the invention. For this reason, we do not mean to be limited to the forms shown and described, but rather to the scope of the appended claims.
