A control mechanism for a carburetor having a throttle valve and a choke valve each having at least a cold-starting position and a full-speed position. The throttle valve is spring biased toward its third, low idle position, and the choke valve is mounted on a choke shaft and is spring biased toward its full-speed open position. When the choke valve is moved by a choke shaft lever from its open position toward its cold start closed position a fast idle lever associated with the choke valve shaft engages, via releasable latch parts, a throttle lever associated with the throttle valve. The interengaging latch parts of these fast idle and throttle levers hold both valves in their respective cold-starting positions in opposition to their respective biasing springs. These latch levers can be released by operator actuation of the throttle valve control, thereby causing the choke valve to be automatically returned to its open position by its biasing spring, or, alternatively, the choke valve can be moved independently to its full-speed position. One of these fast idle and throttle latch levers has a notch, and the other has a pawl selectively engaging the notch when it becomes aligned therewith when the latch levers are operator-actuated to their respective cold start positions. The choke shaft is torsionally resilient so that when the choke shaft lever is forced to override initial-choke-closed position, it thereby twists the choke shaft after the choke valve has been bore-stopped at closed position. Upon release of operator actuating force, this feature prevents most, if not all of the previous retrograde movement of the choke and throttle valves out of their design cold start positions, despite operating slack in the latch system due to manufacturing tolerance stack-up in the various parts of the latch system parts and / or control mechanism in their assembly and operation.

A gaseous-fueled reciprocating internal combustion engine includes a carburetor having a throttle valve that is controlled by a speed governor. A proportional fuel control valve is disposed intermediate a fuel supply and the carburetor, and is controlled by an air fuel computing device. The computing device generates a control signal to adjust the fuel control valve based on a governor sensed variable indicative of engine speed, sensed engine torque, a governor output signal from the governor indicative of an opening position of the throttle valve wherein 100% corresponds to a wide open throttle position, and 0% corresponds to a closed position, and a lean combustion control map containing predetermined set point values stored in memory. During operation, the control valve is responsive to the control signal generated by the computing device for adjustment of a fuel flow therethrough so as to obtain a ratio of air to fuel provided to the engine that is substantially at a lean misfire limit of the engine, thereby reducing fuel consumption, NOx emissions, and reducing exhaust gas temperatures. Alternatively, the control signal is generated using engine speed alone.

The device features a conduit in sealed engagement with the fuel supply bowl of the carburetor which may by switched from engagement between the atmosphere or a negative air pressure supply. When switched to communication with negative air pressure the device causes a vacuum in the fuel bowl of the carburator thereby ceasing fuel flow and shutting down the engine due to lack of fuel.

A carburetor throttle and choke control mechanism incorporating a choke-throttle cold-start fast idle setting latch mechanism having, in a first embodiment, a blade of a fast idle lever specially contoured for creating upon interengagement with a tang on a throttle lever initial torque resistance to co-rotation of the fast idle lever toward latched condition and then effecting force reversal for creating aiding torque to accelerate the fast idle lever relative to choke lever and thereby open a gap in the push coupling that remains in the latched position of the choke and throttle valves. The choke lever has a relatively rigid pusher leg portion adapted for abutment in push relation with a fast idle lever tang. In a second embodiment an extension of the leg portion in the form of a generally U-shaped resilient spring hook portion is adapted to overlap the tang and releasably hook engage the same when the leg portion is brought into full push abutment with said tang. The U-shaped hook portion is resiliently flexible to act as a spring to develop a torque on the choke by pulling the choke valve fully closed when said fast idle lever is moved to fully latched condition while flexing so that the gap remains between the pusher leg portion and the tang.

An evaporative emissions control system for small internal combustion engines, including a charcoal canister which is in fluid communication with the air space above the liquid fuel within the carburetor of the engine and the air space above the liquid fuel within the fuel tank of the engine. The charcoal canister contains charcoal media, and when the engine is not running, fuel vapors from the carburetor and the fuel tank migrate to, and are trapped within, the charcoal media of the charcoal canister. The charcoal canister may comprise a separate component, or may be integrally formed with an engine component such as the air cleaner, the carburetor, or the body of the fuel tank, for example. During running of the engine, vacuum within the carburetor induces a flow of atmospheric air through the charcoal canister to purge the collected fuel vapors from the charcoal media, and the fuel vapors pass into the engine for consumption. In another embodiment, an evaporative emissions control system including a charcoal canister is provided for an engine which includes a fuel injection system.

A stratified scavenging carburetor with a lost motion coupling permits limited relative movement of a throttle valve relative to an air valve so that initial opening of the throttle valve off idle does not open the air valve to avoid diluting with scavenging air the fuel and air mixture delivered to an engine. Rotation of the throttle valve beyond a predetermined amount from idle causes a corresponding opening of the air valve to provide scavenging air to the engine. Closing a choke valve engages a lock lever with the throttle valve to move the throttle valve off idle to a start position without opening the air valve. In another embodiment, closing the choke valve prevents the air valve from opening even if the throttle valve is moved beyond where the throttle valve would cause the air valve to open if the choke valve were open. Thus, a richer than normal fuel and air mixture can be supplied to the engine during a choke-assisted start and warm-up of the engine.

A self-relieving choke starting system for a carburetor of a combustion engine has an elongated cammed latch which projects radially outward from a rotating shaft of a choke valve located in an upstream region of a fuel-and-air mixing passage carried by a body of the carburetor. During a first attempt at starting a cold engine, the user manually rotates the choke valve from a spring biased open to a full choke position whereupon a cam end of the latch contacts a follower arm, which projects radially outward from a rotating shaft of a throttle valve located downstream of a venturi of the mixing passage. As the choke valve manually rotates closed, the throttle valve automatically rotates in an open direction against the biasing force of a throttle spring from a slow idle state, for normal engine operation, to a fast idle state for engine starting. Once the choke valve is in the full choke position and the throttle valve is in the fast idle position, a rich mixture of fuel-and-air will flow into the combustion chamber of the engine during the first attempt at starting the cold engine. If the first attempt should fail, the user can manually rotate the choke valve in an open direction to a half-choke position while the throttle valve is automatically maintained in the fast idle position to provide a slightly leaner mixture of the fuel-and-air to the engine for following attempts at cold starting.

An intake system for the combustion air of a motor of a hand held implement is provided. The system includes an air filter and a centrifugal separator.

The assembly also includes fuel injectors in fluid communication with the cavities. In operation, fuel is injected at a high pressure into the cavities to the point, and the pressurized fuel is delivered into the low pressure air via the apertures. Because of the large pressure difference between the pressurized fuel in the cavities and the low pressure air, the fuel becomes very atomized.

A carburetion system, without complicated control systems, functions uniformly throughout the range of engine load and incremental increases of power demand to provide efficient stable engine performance for a natural gas fired, internal combustion engine using EGR. A cogeneration system for supplying distributed generation of electricity and process / utility heat, employs a system for engine cooling and effective heat transfer to a cogeneration client, reduces engine head temperature, thereby reducing fuel consumption and reducing pollutants, as well as delivering substantially increased heat to a cogeneration process / utility heat facility by use of a carburetion system which employs at least a pair of spaced apart venturi positioned in series proximate one to another such that a first exhaust recycled gas venturi is upstream of a fuel venturi where fuel and air / exhaust gas are admixed prior to the resultant gas being introduced into a turbocharger. The distance between the exhaust venturi and fuel venturi is affective to provide a given amount of exhaust gas to air ratio prior to entering the fuel venturi inlet. Unexpectedly the spatial relationship between the two venturi, one to the other, affectively regulates exhaust gas air mixture, as well as the air / fuel / exhaust gas mixture to the engine by means solely of pressure increase and decrease (vacuum) of the engine intake system.

A two-cycle engine having forward scavenging is provided. Mixture drawn into the crankcase via a butterfly valve carburetor is conveyed into a combustion chamber via transfer channels in the cylinder. An air duct is connected via a controllable connection with a transfer channel to supply essentially fuel-free air thereto during a load state of the engine. To convey a fuel quantity adapted to drawn-in air during idling and partial load, yet during full throttle to achieve separated supply of air and mixture, a dividing wall extends in the direction of flow of air in the carburetor intake duct. In the pivot region of the butterfly valve, a connecting aperture in the dividing wall is closed in full throttle by a completely open butterfly valve. During idling and partial load the connecting aperture is open so that a uniform pressure can form in the intake duct in conformity with drawn-in air.
