  • the present invention relates to an improved pollution control device designed to utilize exhaust gas recirculation in an internal combustion engine as the means for reducing carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and xides of nitrogen.
  • Cornelius US. Pat. No. 2,722,927 Another arrangement for reducing the pollutants discharged from an internal combustion engine is shown in Cornelius US. Pat. No. 2,722,927.
  • the Cornelius system introduces exhaust gases to the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine to dampen out the surges normally resulting from the rapid opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. Exhaust gases are introduced only when required in order to effect maximum volumetric efficiency and at all other times the gases will pass out of the exhaust pipe.
  • This system is rather complex for it utilizes governors, diaphragms and associated linkages and does not effectively control the discharge of pollutants during all operating conditions of the internal combustion engine.
  • catalytic converters be employed in mufflers to help break down the pollutants before they are discharged to the atmosphere.
  • the pollutants are still found in the engine and in the event of malfunction would be discharged to the atmosphere. Further such systems are relatively expensive.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an improved pollution control device for reducing the formation of pollutants formed within the internal combustion engine by achieving a better combustion process.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved pollution control device wherein the formation of nitrogen oxide pollutants in an internal combustion engine is reduced.
  • Still another object of the present invention is the provision of an improved pollution control device which reduces the production of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide in an internal combustion engine, without increasing the formation of aldehydes or hydrocarbon reactivity.

  • FIG. 7 is a plan view of a reed valve for regulating the admission of fresh air into the exhaust recirculation plate.
  • FIG. 1 there is illustrated an internal combustion engine 10 with which the pollution control device 12 of the present invention may be associated.
  • the engine 10 is of conventional design and comprises a block 14 having a pan 16 secured to the bottom thereof which cooperates to define a crank case chamher.
  • the usual pistons and cylinders are confined within the cylinder block 14 which is closed at the top by a cylinder head and valve cover 18.
  • an intake manifold 20 that is operatively associated with the carburetor 22 and the usual air cleaner 24.
  • an exhaust manifold 28 which includes a conduit 30 adapted to communicate exhaust gases from the engine to a muffler (not shown) from which the gases may be discharged through a tailpipe to the atmosphere.
  • the intake and exhaust manifolds may be connected to the cylinder block or to the cylinder head.
  • the internal combustion engine 10 includes a distributor mechanism 32 that is adapted to be connected by means of electrical conduit to the spark plugs affixed to each cylinders.
  • the engine 10 is provided with a generator or alternator 34 operatively connected to the damper pulley 36 by means of belt means 38.
  • the belt means 38 is also connected to the pulley 37 for the fan 39. so as to drive the fan 39 and thereby pass the air over the radiator to help cool same.
  • the reduction of oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons emitted from an internal combustion engine may be accomplished by recirculating a portion of the exhaust gases from the engine 10 via the pollution control device 12 which is disposed between the exhaust manifold 28 and the intake manifold 20, such control device also being the metering means, all being responsive to the differential pressure between the intake manifold pressure, exhaust manifold pressure and ambient air pressure.
  • exhaust recirculating plate 40 is disposed between the exhaust manifold 28 and the conduit or exhaust header pipe 30.
  • the exhaust recirculating plate 40 communicates with the induction plate 42 disposed in the intake manifold between the intake manifold and the carburetor 22 by means of a conduit or tube 44.
  • Each of the plates 40 and 42 is provided with holes 46 and 45 which are adapted to be aligned with holes in the flanges on the respective manifold pipes, with which they are joined so that fastening means, for example, bolts may pass through the aligned holes to secure the plates 40 and 42 respectively in fluid tight relationship with the exhaust manifold 28 and the intake manifold 20 respectively.
  • the induction plate 42 has a plurality of passages 52 therein cooperating with the inlet chamber 54 for guiding the exhaust gases from tube 44 through the ports 52 to the annular chamber or groove 58 defined within the induction plate 42.
  • the inner wall of the induction plate 42 defining the opening 62 in the induction plate 42 is provided with a plurality of slot 60 leading from the groove 58 into the throat or opening 62 of the induction plate.
  • the exhaust gases entering the groove or chamber 58 are ducted via the groove 58 and the slots 60 into the throat area 62 at an angle causing them to swirl while entering the intake manifold directly under the carburetor 22.
  • These exhaust gases being hot and swelling help vaporize the fuel drawn through the idling circuit.
  • By heating the fuel coming from the idling circuit it is possible to lean down the idle fuel-air ratio so as to materially reduce the carbon monoxide pollutants, for example in one test, from 3.5 to 1 percent at idle.
  • a reed valve 70 that is adapted to cooperate with fresh air inlet openings 72 so as to selectively permit the entry of fresh air into either or both the exhaust manifold 28 and the intake manifold 20.
  • the chamber 49 is defined by a recess within the exhaust recirculation plate 40 and a separate plate member 69 adapted to be secured to the exhaust recirculation plate by suitable fastening means, for example screws 71.
  • the reed valve 70 has two holes 700 therein receiving guide pins 74 for guiding the up and down movement of the reed valve 70 as viewed in FIG. 3 toward and away from the inlet ports or inlet openings 72.
  • a metering orifice 70b is provided in the reed valve 70 to permit a predetermined flow of gas through conduit 44 even if the reed valve 70 is closing off the inlet to conduit 44.
  • the area of metering orifice 70b is determined by the displacement of the engine.
  • the reed valve 70 allows fresh air to be drawn into the system through the inlet openings 72 in the plate 69 during idling, low cruise, and deceleration modes of engine operation. During idle, deceleration and at cruise speeds, there are negative pulsating pressures in the exhaust manifold 28. During the idle mode of engine op eration, the reed valve 70 allows fresh air to enter the holes 72 and the chamber 49 and mix with warm exhaust gases recirculated through the metering orifice 70b in reed valve 70 to the induction plate 42 under the carburetor, thus eliminating rough idling, which would otherwise be present with the leaner air-fuel mixture.
  • Recirculation is only necessary during idle or deceleration to reduce carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons as oxides of nitrogen are low during these modes of engine operation.
  • the carbon monoxides are reduced during acceleration and cruise modes of operation by the exhaust gases entering the induction plate 42, heating and further vaporizing the fuel where more complete combustion is possible.
  • the carburetor throttle butterfly valve is between closed and one-fourth open. This is due to the fact that the fuel flow through the idling circuit is realized up to onefourth of the throotle opening.
  • bucking or uneven operation results. This problem is eliminated by the hot gases recirculating into the induction plate 42 under the carburetor, heating the incoming fuel-air mixture and thus giving a homogeneous mixture which will completely combust in the cylinders of the engine 10.
  • the high intake manifold vacuum encourages dilution and over-richness of the incoming charge of fuel and air with the exhaust gases drawn back into the cylinger before the exhaust valves are fully closed. This causes incomplete combustion in the deceleration mode resulting in high emissions of pollutants, particularly hydrocarbons.
  • the reed valve is open due to the high vacuum in the intake manifold 20. Fresh air is allowed to enter the exhaust recirculation plate 40 and through the metering orifice 70b in reed valve 70 the induction plate 42 to the intake manifold, thus providing some additional air for combustion and also reducing the vacuum on the idling circuit, which in turn reduces the fuel flow through the idling circuit.
  • the reed valve 70 also allows fresh air to enter the exhaust manifold where there is a vacuum due to pumping action during deceleration. This also reduces the vacuum on the idling circuit which reduces overrich mixture, thus insuring combustion and reducing the emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons during the deceleration mode of engine operation.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 there is better shown the detail of the plurality of slots 60 in the inner wall forming groove 58 of the induction plate 42.
  • the slots 60 which lead from the groove 58 to the throat 62 of the induction plate are designed to create a high frequency sound wave when the exhaust gases reach high velocity during acceleration and high speed cruise operation of the engine.
  • the high frequency, high energy sonic standing waves cause the fuel-air mixture to disperse in a homogenous fashion therefore creating an optimum burning condition in the cylinders.
  • An inlet fitting 80 is provided in the wall of the induction plate 42.
  • the hole or passage through the fitting 80 is closed by a screw 82 that may be selectively removed, for example every two thousand miles, to permit a high pressure air supply to be affixed to the end of fitting 80 so as to force high pressure air through the induction plate 42 to remove excess carbon build up in the groove 58 and the slots 60.
  • High pressure air will also be forced down the tube 44 through the groove 58 as to clean excess carbon formed in the tube 44, the
  • the exhaust recirculation plate 40 includes a hydrocarbon separator 84.
  • the hydrocarbon separator 84 comprises a generally cylindrical perforated member having flared fingers or projections 85, 86 extending outwardly from each end thereof.
  • a plurality of retainer arms 87 connected at one end to the separator 84 and at the other end to the exhaust recirculating plate 40 maintain the hydrocarbon separator within the opening 62 in the exhaust recirculation plate and in the exhaust manifold 28.
  • the hydrocarbon separator 84 is disposed in the exhaust manifold 28 so as to come into contact with the exhaust gases at a very high temperature of the gases.
  • the hydrocarbon separator 84 will become red hot and during acceleration and high speed cruise there will be separation of the hydrogen and carbon atoms, thereby helping them to oxidize and assist in minimization of pollutants at the source.
  • the fingers 85, 86 extending outwardly from the main body of the hydrocarbon separator 84 cause turbulence in the exhaust gases as they flow from the exhaust manifold 28 to assist the breakdown and separation of hydrogen and carbon from the exhaust gas.
  • an improved pollution control device utilizing exhaust gas recirculation as a means of reducing the oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons formed in the operation of the internal combustion engine.
