- a handle D provides a trigger-type, throttle lever E.
- a two-cycle, internal combustion engine F serves to impart power to the cutter chain C so as to cause the chain C to traverse the periphery of the guide bar B.
- a drive connection G interposed between the engine F and the cutter chain C may include a conventional, pull-type starter. Alternatively, an electrical self-starting system may be provided.
- this structure is now well known in the chain saw art. It corresponds, in general, for example, to the basic structure described in a publicly available Mc- Culloch Shop Manual associated with the MAC l-lO and 2-10 chain saws manufactured by the McCulloch Corporation of Los Angeles, Calif.
- This assembly comprises a fuel tank 2, an engine mounting bracket 3.
- Bracket 3 may comprise an integral portion of a casting or molded trnent which defines a portion of the fuel tank 2, as shown in FIGURE 1.
- Engine mounting bracket 3 is provided with one or more boss-like surfaces 4. These bosses serve to attach the bracket 3 to the cylinder of the two-cycle internal combustion engine F which serves to drive the cutter chain C.
- This general mode of engine mounting in a chain saw is well known and incorporated, for example, in chain saws manufactured by the above-noted McCulloch Corporation.
- -Engine mounting bracket 3 is concave and includes a peripheral, air filter supporting, lip means 4.
- a carburetor heater 7 is positioned in the cavity 6.
- Heater 7 includes a relatively thick, planar, web-like portion 8 and another relatively thin, planar, web-like, portion 9.
- lPortions 8 and 9 are generally parallel, with web portion 9 projecting laterally from one edge of the web 8.
- a conventional carburetor 10 is mounted on web 9 by conventional threaded fasteners. In order to avoid obscuring the inventive facets of this disclosure, these conventional mounting means have not been illustrated.
- Carburetor 10 includes an induction passage 11 including an air inlet 12. Flow through passage 11 is regulated by a butterfly valve 11a. Passage 11 communicates with an aperture 13 in the web 9 and an aperture 14 in the mounting bracket 3. The more-or-less coaxially aligned 'apertures 14 and 13 define a continuation of induction passage 11, operable to transmit a carbiurated air and fuel mixture to the intake port of an engine cylinder 15, as schematically shown in FIGURE 5.
- gasket means may be interposed between a boss surface 16 encircling the aperture 14 and a cylinder boss surface 17 encircling the cylinder air inlet 18.
- Such gasket means provides sealed communication between the passage 14 and the air-fuel inlet of the cylinder 15.
- Other such gasket means may be interposed between the web 9 and the carburetor 10, as well as between the web 9 and the surface 19 of the mounting bracket 3 which encircles the aperture 1-4 and faces the web 9.
- a detachable cover H may be provided so as to shield the fuel filter 5.

- cover H when installed, defines a smooth, streamlined continuation of the fuel tank 2.
- Cover H provides an entry passage means L leading to the exterior of filter unit 5.
- a spark arrestor 20 is mounted on one side of the cylinder 15, as shown in FIGURES l and 5.
- a conduit 21 extends from an exhaust port 22 of the cylinder 15, and serves to transmit exhaust fluid from the cylinder to the interior 23 of the spark arrestor 20.
- An L-shaped supply conduit 24 extends from the spark arrestor to the heater web 8.
- This conduit 24, which extends generally circumferentially about the axis X of reciprocation of a piston contained within the cylinder 15, serves to supply a portion of the exhaust fluid which enters the interior zone 23 to the heater web 8 which f-unctions as a radiator.
- a return or discharge conduit 25, generally parallel lwith the L-shaped conduit 24, provides a return flow path for exhaust fluid, extending from the radiator 8 to a discharge passage 26 incorporated in the spark arrestor 20.
- Return conduit 25, like supply conduit 24 extends circumferentially about the reciprocation axis X.
- FIGURES l, 2, and 5 themajor components are geometrically arranged so that the fiuel tank 2, carburetor 10, and heater 7, as well as the engine mounting means 3, are radially displaced from the axis X. However, these components are more-or-less aligned with a median plane 27 which extends longitudinally of the chain saw and coaxially with the reciprocation axis X. Spark arrestor 20 is displaced radially of the axis X, but is circumferentially displaced from the alignment plane 27, with respect to the reciprocation axis X.
- FIG- URES 1 through 5 STRUCTURAL DETAILS OF HEATER Structural details of the heater 7 are shown in FIG- URES 1 through 5.
- Heater 7 as previously noted, includes the radiator portion 8 and the carburetor mounting web 9.
- Supply conduit 24 is received within a conventional conduit coupling 28 in radiator 8.
- Discharge conduit 25 is coupled with a conventional conduit coupling 29 in the radiator 8.
- Each of the couplings 28 and 29 may cornprise sockets formed in web body 8, with the ends of the cond-nits 24 and 2.9 telescopingly received within these sockets and brazed in place.
- Coupling 28 communicates with an axially extending, supply passage or bore 30 formed in the radiator 8.
- Coupling 29 communicates with an axially extending discharge passage 31, also formed in the radiator 8.
- Each of the passages 30 and 31 comprises a straight bore, with the central axes of these bores being parallel to the upper and lower surfaces 32a and 32b of the radiator 8.
- the central axes of the bores are thus coplanar and are mutually converging so as to cause the passages 30 and 31 to intersect at the terminus 33.
- exhaust uid is transmitted from the supply conduit 24, through the supply passage 30, and terminus 33 to the exhaust passage 31.
- Exhaust fluid returns to the spark arrestor 20 by flowing from the exhaust passage 31, through the return conduit 25.
- Heater 7 may be fabricated from a unitary piece of metal, such as soft aluminum, which functions as an effective heat radiator and an effective heat conductor.
- the web 9 provides a heat conductive media operable to transmit heat from the passages 30 and 31 to a wall means 34.
- Wall means 34 is essentially cylindrical in nature and is generally coaxially oriented in relation to the passages 18 and 11.
- Wall means 34, which defines the connecting passage 13 provides a heat radiating surface operable to heat the air and fuel mixture passing from the carburetor passage 11 to the air-fuel inlet 18 of cylinder 15.
- web 8 as well as the body of web 9, provide heat radiating means operable to radiate heat throughout the interior of the cavity 6. This radiated heat is effective to heat fuel in the longitudinally adjacent fuel tank 2, and also heat the superposed air filter 5.
- radiator 7 By interposing the radiator 7 so that it is radially interposed between the mounting bracket 3 and the filter 5, and aligned so as to extend more-or-less longitudinally of the filter 5, optimum heat transfer between the radiator portion 8 and the filter 5 is effected.
- the body of the carburetor 10 is heated both by radiation and by conduction.
- the web 9 serves as a heat conductive device, operable to transmit heat directly to the body of carburetor 10, while the radiator web 8 imparts heat to the atmosphere surrounding the carburetor body.
- a fuel transfer conduit 35 extends from the fuel reservoir 2 to the carburetor 10. This fuel transfer conduit, in passing through the heated cavity 6, will serve to impart additional heat to fuel entering the passage 11.
- FIGURES 1, 5 and 6 STRUCTURAL DETAILS OF SPARK ARRESTOR Structural details of spark arrestor 20 are shown in FIGURES 1, 5 and 6.
- Spark arrestor 20 includes a concave base 36 and a convex cover 37.
- Convex cover 37 is telescoped partially over the base 36 so as to define the interior zone 23.
- Exhaust conduit 21, extending from a cylinder exhaust port 22, provides fluid communication with the cavity 23 by way of a port or opening 38 in the rear Wall of casing 36.
- a plurality of louvered openings 42 are provided in the cover 37. These openings provide a substantial flow path, providing direct communication between the discharge passage 26 and the supply port 38, interrupted only by the spark arresting screen or barrier 39.
- a thermal barrier or shield 43 is associated with the spark .arrestor 20 and serves to protect an operator from the high temperature of the spark arrestor.

- a Belleville spring 61 may be interposed between knob 58 and web surface 31 to brace fitment 57 against surface 32 so as to minimize vibration.
- the web means 9 will conduct heat to the passage 13 and thus serve to radiate further heat to the air-fuel mlxture passing from the carburetor 10 to the inlet port 18 of the cylinder 15.
- the body of heater 7 may have a temperature on the order of over l2() degrees Fahrenheit, even when the ambient temperature is as low as minus 20 to minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
