  • the method and apparatus of the invention have particular utility with two cycle engines of the three port type because of the severity of reverse mixture flow or rebound in the mixing passage upon closing of a mixture inlet port of the engine by the engine piston.
  • the method and apparatus of the invention have utility with both four cycle and two cycle engines which, in operation, develop reverse flow or rebound action of the fuel and air mixture upon closing of the mixture inlet port or ports of the engine by valve means such as conventional reed valves of types of two cycle reciprocating piston engines other than the three port type and with reciprocating piston engines of the four cycle type where there occurs a substantial reverse flow or rebound velocity of fuel mixture in the intake manifold transmitted to the mixing passage of the carburetor or charge forming apparatus used with the engine.
  • valve means such as conventional reed valves of types of two cycle reciprocating piston engines other than the three port type and with reciprocating piston engines of the four cycle type where there occurs a substantial reverse flow or rebound velocity of fuel mixture in the intake manifold transmitted to the mixing passage of the carburetor or charge forming apparatus used with the engine.
  • the invention relates to charge forming apparatus or carburetor and more particularly to a charge forming apparatus or carburetor for use with internal combustion engines of one or more cylinders where a single carburetor or charge forming apparatus supplies com-.
  • the invention may be embodied in carburetors of the socalled aspirated diaphragm type or of the float bowl type wherein fuel level in a chamber is controlled by a float operated valve.
  • the charge forming apparatus or carburetor of the invention has particular utility with engines of the two cycle type usually referred to as a three port engine, that is, a two cycle engine wherein the combustible fuel andair mixture from a carburetor is delivered into the crankcase through a port in the cylinder wall which is opened and closed by the skirt of the piston, the mixture compressed in the crankcase and delivered through a channel and mixture inlet port into the combustion chamber of the cylinder and wherein the exhaust is delivered through an exit port uncovered or opened by the piston as the piston approaches the a lower end of a power stroke.
  • Engines of this character are particularly usable for powering snowmobiles, the engine having one or more cylinders of the three port type and of a size or capacity of ten to fifty or more horsepower.
  • the volume and velocity of air moving through the carburetor mixing passage aspirates fuel from a fuel delivery nozzle into the air stream to provide the combustible mixture for the engine.
  • the air flow in the mixing passage is at substantial velocity due to the suction or reduced pressure in the crankcase of the two cycle engine developed during the upward stroke of the piston.
  • the stream of air and fuel mixture, moving at high velocity in the mixing passage or intake manifold, is impeded by the positive closing of the port by the piston skirt.
  • This condition causes or sets up a reaction pressure or rebound of the stream of combustible mixture, resulting in stream flow in a reverse direction in the mixing passage of the carburetor toward the air inlet region of the mixing passage.
  • the reaction or rebound velocity of the air and fuel mixture causes more fuel to be aspirated or delivered from the fuel nozzle into the reversely moving mixture stream. This results in an enrichened fuel and air mixture delivered to the engine upon the opening of the inlet port by upward movement of the piston skirt. This action is referred to as double metering or a double delivery condition.
  • the invention embraces a method of controlling fuel delivery from an orifice under the influence of engine aspiration into an air stream in a mixing passage of a carburetor or charge forming apparatus wherein aspiration set up by the velocity of the reverse flow of fuel and air mixture in the mixing passage due to rebound action or reverse flow of the mixture stream occurring upon closing of the mixture inlet port to the engine is substantially reduced at the region of delivery of fuel to thereby reduce or substantially restrict delivery of fuel and prevent appreciable enrichment of the mixture stream during the periods of reverse flow of the fuel and air mixture in the mixing passage.
  • An object of the invention is the provision of a method or system for controlling a fuel and air mixture in a mixing passage upon rebound or reversal of direction of flow of the mixture momentarily occurring at periods of closing of the mixture inlet port to the engine by increasing the pressure at a localized region adjacent the fuel delivery orifice to momentarily reduce aspiration of fuel into the mixing passage during rebound periods and thereby substantially avoid enrichment of the fuel and air. mixture.

  • Another object of the invention is the provision of a carburetor or charge forming device for use with an internal combustion engine of the reciprocating piston type, the carburetor or charge forming apparatus having a mixing passage and a fuel delivery orifice and including a barrier or impediment at the air inlet side of the fuel delivery orifice shaped to effect an increase in pressure at the region of delivery of fuel upon reversal of flow or rebound of the fuel and air mixture in the mixing passage occurring by reason of the closing of the mixture inlet port of the engine to prevent delivery of excess fuel into the mixing passage, the barrier or impediment having vent or passage means to control or regulate the amount of increase in pressure at the zone of delivery of fuel into the mixing passage.
  • Another object of the invention is the provision of a carburetor or charge forming apparatus for an internal combustion engine of the reciprocating piston type wherein the charge forming apparatus or carburetor is fashioned with a fuel and air mixing passage and orifice means for delivering fuel into the mixing passage by engine aspiration, the arrangement including a chamber in the mixing passage having an open area downstream of the mixing passage for normal fuel delivery to the engine, the chamber being configurated to establish increased pressure during periods of rebound or reversal of flow of the mixture due to closing of the mixture inlet port to the engine whereby aspiration of fuel is momentarily reduced at each period of increase in pressure in the chamber to substantially reduce the delivery of fuel into the mixing passage during the periods of rebound or reversal of directionof flow of the mixture in the mixing passage.
  • Another object of the invention is the provision of a carburetor having a fuel and air mixing passage for supplying mixture to an internal combustion engine, the carburetor having wall means disposed in the mixing passage adjacent the zone of delivery of fuel into the mixing passage providing a region or chamber forestablishing increased pressure upon rebound or reversal of flow of fuel and air mixture during the periods of closing of the mixture inlet port to the engine to restrict or substantially reduce aspiration of fuel during rebound periods, the chamber being fashioned with an open area or areas for controlling the extent or amount of increase in pressure so as not to impair the normal delivery of fuel and air mixture to the engine.
  • Another object of the invention is the provision in the mixing passage of a carburetor of the aspirated diaphragm type or of the float controlled bowl type of means for restricting delivery of fuel into the mixing passage during periods of reverse flow of the mixture or rebound action in the mixing passage resulting from closing of the mixture inlet port of the engine with l which the carburetor is used to avoid an excess of fuel in the normal fuel and air mixture in the mixing passage.

  • the openings may be varied in size or position to limit or restrict the mixture rebound velocity and the increase in pressure on rebound in the chamber 301 to attain effective mixture rebound control.
  • FIGS. 30 and 31 illustrate another form of mixture rebound velocity and pressure control arrangement in the mixing passage adjacent the main fuel delivery orifice.

  • the size and relative position of the opening or open area 318 may be varied depending upon the fuel demand required by the engine and the mixture rebound velocities occurring upon closing of the inlet port of a particular engine.
  • the absence of an opening or open area in the wall 311 provides a substantially isolated control chamber 314, except for the vent opening 318, effective to reduce the velocity of the reversely flowing or rebound mixture at the region of the main orifice 150m to restrict or reducedelivery of fuel from 'the main orifice 150m during a rebound mixture flow period following each closing of the mixture inlet port.
  • FIGS. 30 and 31 are desirable where rebound is not severe and that the pressure increase on rebound occurring in the control chamber 314 restricts but does not prevent continued delivery of some fuel through the orifice 150m during rebound so that upon subsequent normal engine aspiration fuel delivery is simply increased.

  • the barrier provided by the portions 331 and 333 may be comparatively small when used or associated with a small supplemental Venturi 320 as the air flow through the supplemental Venturi is at high velocity providing ample aspiration for delivering fuel from the orifice 150n through the control chamber 330 into the small Venturi 320 thence into the main Venturi 6411.
  • the barrier provided by the portions 331 and 333 restricts reverse flow of the mixture at this region, reducing the velocity of the rebound mixture at this region and increasing the pressure in the control chamber 330 to restrict or substantially reduce delivery of fuel from the orifice 150n into the control chamber 330.
  • the member 331 is proportioned in size so that the increase in pressure developed during rebound in the control chamber 330 is insufficient to prevent discharge of fuel from the orifice 150n but is of such calibration that fuel is continuously delivered from the orifice 150n although in a reduced amount during rebound periods so that the normal mixture of fuel and air will not be rendered too lean in fuel upon normal engine aspiration occurring after each closing period of the fuel inlet port to the engine.
  • FIGS. 34, 35 and 36 illustrate a form of mixture rebound velocity and pressure control arrangement in association with a supplemental Venturi, the arrangement being similar to that shown in FIGS. 32 and 33.

  • the openings or open areas 346 and 347 are calibrated in size suitable to perform effectively under the rebound characteristics of the engine with which the carburetor may be used to reduce the velocity of the rebound mixture at the control chamber to a value at which a small amount of fuel will be aspirated into the control chamber 343 but which is insufficient to enrichen the normal fuel and air mixture moving through the mixing passage and through the small Venturi 336.
