  • This second cam plate 77 has a step-shaped cam lobe 79, although it could also be provided without steps but with a descending curve.
  • the stepped cam lobe 79 (see FIGS. 3 and 6) is intended to block a cam sector 81 of the first cam plate 69, which determines the starting excess fuel quantity, whenever an operating medium temperature assigned to the operationally warmed-up engine exists in the interior volume 76 of the regulator, and to release the starting excess fuel quantity at least partially whenever the temperatures lie below that point.
  • the operating medium can also be the electrical heating of a bimetallic spring (see FIG. 7).
  • the required rotational motion of the second cam plate 77 is effected within the control apparatus 78 (see especially FIG.

  • the adaptor sleeve 16 urges the abutment carrying the first cam plate 69 into further rotation, the first drag link 49 begins to function and permits a further movement of the adaptor sleeve 16 and of the control arm 42 in spite of the fact that the abutment 70 remains stationary. During that time the engaging arm 72 and the bolt 74 of the drag lever 73 are stationary and the return spring 48 is being pretensioned.
  • the pre-tension force of the first drag link 49 is large enough so that the frictional force generated at the first cam plate 69, i.e., the force generated by the pressure force of the cam follower member 68, is overcome primarily in the region of sector 92. This pretension force, however, may not be so large that the desired start lock at the offset 93 is retained longer than is permissible.
  • the return spring 51 of the second drag link 42 must have a pre-tension many times greater than that of the return spring 48 of the first drag link 49 because the second drag link 52 acts in the same direction as the first drag link 49 and if the return spring 51 were too soft and if also the control rod had a lot of friction, the result would be that the second drag link 52 could yield. This is not permissible for reasons of reliability because the arrest motion of the regulator must be guaranteed in every case.
  • the second drag link 52 permits a regulatory motion of the adaptor member 16 and of the control arm 42 by pre-tensioning the return spring 51. This avoids an overload of the interior parts of the regulator.
  • the drag lever 73 of the first drag link 49 and also a drag link 52 are mounted on one of the two pivotal studs 47 of the control arm 42, and the return springs 48 and 51 which are embodied as spiral springs are supported on the one hand at legs 42a and 42b of the control arm 42 and on the other hand at the drag levers 73 and 95.
  • the spring-type accumulator 44 is located between the control rod 45 and the intermediate lever 43 and cooperates with the two drag links 49 and 52 and acts as an elastically resilient third drag link.
  • the accumulator 44 has a return spring 96 and has a pre-tension which is greater than the resistance to motion of the control rod 45 but at the same time small enough so that, during increasing rpm outside of the starting range, the rotational motion of the cam plate 69 is not hindered.
  • the swivel position of the control lever 67 determines the position of the pivotal axis 64' of the abutf ment lever 63 and therefore also the position of the control rod 45 which is assigned to the first cam plate 69 of the abutment 70.
  • the swivel position of the control lever 67 is fixed in the direction of increasing fuel supply quantity by means of an externally adjustable set screw 97 equipped with a head 9721.

Only the adjustment shaft 84, the bimetallic spring 82 and the lever are shown from among the elements of the control apparatus 78.

  • a control apparatus which functions in dependence on the temperature of an operating medium such that when an operating medium temperature is reached which corresponds to an operationally warmed-up engine a portion of the second cam plate blocks the cam sector of the first cam plate from being engaged by the follower member thereby preventing the delivery ofa starting excess fuel quantity, and when the operating medium temperature reached is below a temperature which corresponds to an operationally warmed-up engine, the cam follower member abuts the cam sectorof the first cam plate so that at least a partial starting excess fuel quantity is delivered.
  • control apparatus includes a housing which communicates with the interior of the regulator, a spiral shaped bimetallic spring within said housing, and an adjustment shaft, with one end of said spring being fastened to said adjustment shaft and the other end of said spring engaging said second cam plate.
  • control apparatus includes a housing which is sealed off from the interior ofthe regulator and'the exterior of the engine with which the regulator is used, a spiral shaped bimetallic spring within said housingan adjustment shaft and a rotatable adjustment member, withone end of said spring being fastened to said adjustment shaft and the other end of said spring being supported by said rotatable adjustment member.
  • control apparatus includes connecting studs through which the operating medium is delivered into said apparatus housing, and wherein the operating medium is engine cooling water.
  • control apparatus includes connecting studs through which the operating medium is delivered into said apparatus housing, and wherein the operating medium is engine lubricating oil.
  • a sealed portion of the housing of said control apparatus includes an operating medium, which is an electrically heated filling medium.
  • control apparatus includes a housing, a portion of which is sealed off from the interior of the regulator and the exterior of the engine with which the regulator is used, and a portion of which communicates with the interior of the regulator, a spiral shaped bimetallic spring within said housing, an adjustment shaft including an adjustment lever located within that portion of the apparatus housing which communicates with the interior ofthe regulator, said adjustment lever engaging said second cam plate external to its pivotal axis, and a rotatable adjustment member, with one end of said spring being fastened to said adjustment shaft and the other end of said spring being supported by said rotatable adjustment member.
