- the reference numeral l indicates the main body member of a carburetor mounted by means of a flange 2 on the intake manifold 3 of an internal combustion engine.
- the exhaust manifold is shown at 4.
- the carburetor comprises the usual throttle valve 5 controlled by a manually the main jet in accordance with the throttle position.
- the main nozzle l discharges at the throat of the venturi l3, which, in the present instance discharges into other and larger venturis to form a multi-stage mixing arrangement. This construction is already well known in the art, and
- a spri I9 is provided for moving the diaphragm to the right with respect to Figure 1 and this spring has suflicient strength to open the throttle valve by the means hereafter to be described, but the spring is still weak enough to be overcome by a suction in the intake manifold amounting to 6 or 7 pounds per square inch so as to permit the throttle to move to fully closed position.
- the rocker arm I1 is fixedly mounted on the rock shaft which is also provided with the lever 2
- is provided with a transversely bentportion 22 at its end to insure contact with the lever 23 which is mounted on the throttle shaft 24.
- spring l9 pushes diaphragm l4 to the right as in Figure 1, and rotates shaft 20 in a clockwise direction thereby causing the transverse portion 22 to contact with and move the lever 23 to slightly open the throttle as soon as the engine stops, andto hold it there until the engine is cranked again and begins to run under its own power.
- a second lever 25 is mounted on the throttle shaft to rotate therewith and is connected by means of link 26 with the accelerating pump lever 21 carried by a rock shaft 28.
- the link 26 is provided with an inwardly projecting pin 29 for a purpose hereafter to be described
- the choke valve 30 is eccentrically mounted on a shaft 3
- a link 35 has a pin 36 loosely mounted in slot 34 and is connected by pin 35a to upstanding portion 31a of a rocker am 31 which is pivotallymounted on the pillow block 38 by means of the pin 39.
- Rocker arm 31 is provided with 9. lug 40 disposed to cooperate with a lug 4
- ! interferes with lug 4
- This position of the mechanism corresponds to a slightly open or fast idle" position of the throttle valve and insures the supply of sumcient fuel mixture to the engine to keep it in operation at low temperatures.
- extends into a. housing 42 which is thoroughly lined with cork or other heat insulating material as indicated at 43.
- the casing is formed in two parts as indicated in Figure 3, the outer portion being cup-shaped and removable.
- a radial arm 44 is rigidly secured to the end of choke valve shaft 3
- Piston 45 operates in a chamber 41 formed in housing 42.
- Cylinder 41 is provided with grooves or by-passes 48 formed on its opposite fiat sides but not extending the full length of the cylinder.
- Piston 45 closes these by-passes when it is in the position shown in Figure 2 or at the opposite end of the chamber or, in other words, the by-passes are closed when the choke is either substantially fully closed or fully open.
- By-passes 48 are formed with an irregular contour so as to provide an uneven suction action on the piston 45 in accordance with its position in the chamber.
- piston 45 is pivoted to the connecting rod 46 as indicated
- a hot air stove 50 open to the atmosphere, is provided on the exhaust manifold 4 and hot air is drawn up from the stove directly thru the conduit 5
- the moving force which draws the hot air thru the housing is the suction within the intake manifold which is conveyed by means of a conduit 53 to chamber 41 in such a manner that the suction existing in the intake manifold is transmitted to piston 45.
- Conduit 53 is provided with a valve screw 15 by which the suction may be regulated.
- Thermostat 54 is fixedly mounted on the removable portion of housing 42 which is held in place by means of a flexible bracket 56 pivoted to a support as at 51 so that it may be swung aside to permit complete removal of the thermostat and the outer portion of the housing.
- the thermostat may be rotatably adjusted by turning the housing to the right or left and will be held in adjusted position by friction created by the pressure of the flexible bracket 56 against the outer portion of the housing.
- thermostatic coil The outer end of the thermostatic coil is provided with a hook 54a (Fig. '7) which engages pin 59 projecting from lever 44.
- the thermostat is of the bi-metallic coil type and the metals are so arranged as to rotate the lever 44- and the choke valve in an anti-clockwise direction with respect to Figure 2 when the temperature is low; in other words the choke valve will be closed when the engine is cold.
- Figure 7 also shows a small hole 41a in the other wall of chamber 41 at the closed end which functions as a suctionby-pass for independently one direction only.
- the reason for this form-of connection is to permit the thermostat to freely expand or unwind without obstruction by any other element when the temperature is high. Thus the thermostat will not be subjected to strain when the temperature is above a predotermined degree.
- Lever 44 has a projecting portion 6
- is, of course, constructed of iron or other magnetic material and contacts with the poles of the magnet when the choke valve is moved to fully closed position.
- Magnet 59 is preferably not of great strength and does not ,afiect the choke valve until the armature and magnet are brought in substantial contact.
- thermostat 54 is the only means for resisting opening of the choke and tending to close the same, the effect of the thermostat being dependent on the temperature. It should also be noted that magnet 59 is not even strong enough to offer any substantial resistance to the opening of the choke valve. The purpose of the magnet is to obtain a fluttering action of the choke valve during the cranking period and the amount of force required to set up this fluttering action is almost negligible.
- Such devices supply a small constant current moving at low speed and substantialportions of the fuel vapor carried by such currents are either condensed on the walls of the manifold or precipitated the moment they reach the cylinders.
- One of the objects of this invention is to secure the movement of the air current from the carburetor to the cylinders in a succession of comparatively rapid impulses instead of in a steady flow or stream, the impulsive movement apparently having a better vaporizing effect on the gasoline and being more efficient to retain the gasoline in vaporized condition.
- One reason for this improved result is the individual impulses move at a much higher velocity than uniformly .flowing air admitted thru a small orifice.
- the choke valve is intermittently opened by the suction and closed again by the thermostat at a fairly rapid rate, the fluttering action being caused or accentuated by magnet 59.
- the magnet has somewhat the effect of a snap action device which prevents the choke valve remaining fixed in a position which would leave the armature 6
- the combined strength of the thermostat and the magnet will generally be sufilcient to move the choke quickly to fully closed position.
- the action of the suction being elastic and the movement of the piston of the engine being slow during th cranking period, an appreciable length of time is required to build up sufiicient suction to overcome the combined action of the thermostat and magnet on armature 6
- the suction is built up to such a point that it is strong enough to break the armature away from poles of the magnet it is also strong enough to carry the valve a substantial distance beyond that necessary to admit the air at the rate at which it is being drawn in by the cylinders.
- conduit 53 may be controlled in any suitable manner. This control may be accomplished by merely selecting a proper size for the tube 53 or by the insertion therein of a restricted orifice or an adjusting valv as shown at 15 or any other suitable means. A similar adjustment could also be made for the conduit 5!.
- piston 45 moves to a position to restrict the flow of hot air thru cylinder 41, and restricts further heating of the thermostat.
- the leakage past the piston 45 is sufficient to keep the thermostat 54 hot so as to maintain the choke valve in fully open position. It is not necessary, however, to exceed temperatures of approximately 200 degrees Fahrenheit in housing 54 so that comparatively inexpensive thermostatic metal may be used.
- insulation 43 on the housing prevents the too rapid cooling of the thermostat and avoids the supply of an over-rich mixture to a motor which has beenerecently operating and has not yet cooled down to a point where such rich mixture is required.
- FIGS 8, 9, and 10 show a modification in which suction chamber 41a is formed cylindrically instead of being longitudinally curved as in the previous form.
- This cylinder communicates with the interior of the mixture conduit posterior to throttle valve 5 by means of a suction connection 53a extending through the wall of the carburetor barrel.
- Cylinder 410 has a pair of grooves 48a in the wall thereof through which suction is communicated to the interior of housing 42 for the Heat is conducted to the interior of the thermostat housing from a stove 50 secured to a part 4 of the engine, conveniently, the exhaust manifold, through tubing 51a and screen 5.
- a portion of the suction transmitted to chamber or cylinder 41a is by-passed around piston 45a, by means of grooves 48a, and functions to draw heated air from the stove past the thermostat.
- Grooves 480. may be tapered or otherwise varied, if desired, for varying the effect thereof according to the position of the piston 45a.
- Rotata-bly carried on a pivot 63 adjacent the throttle shaft is a cam-like member 64 having a weighted lobe 65 and projecting pin abutments 66 and 61.
- a link 68 is secured at its upper end to an arm 69 rigid with choke shaft 3
- a crank 6a rigid with throttle valve 5 carries a screw H forming an adjustable abutment for cooperating with cam-like member 64 to limit closing movement of the throttle, as described hereafter, under certain conditions.
- FIG 8 shows choke valve 30 held in a closed position by the thermostat, as for cold starting.
- Cam-like member 64 has been rotated by means of link 68 and pin abutment 61 so that a high point 12 thereof is engaged by throttle screw H to limit closing movement of the throttle valve to the fast idle" position.
- the throttle valve may be opened somewhat farther than is shown in Figure 8, particularly in very cold weather.
- piston 45a will be drawn downwardly in chamber 410, due to the substantially increased suction applied thereto, thus positively opening the choke valve.
- the choke, :being unbalanced, will also be urged open by pressure applied directly thereto.
- choke valve 30 may be substantially opened against the force of the thermostat. as in Figure 10. bv substantially full open movement of the throttle valve. This is effected by engagement between a projecting element 13 on the throttle crank and pin abutment 66 on the cam-like member, rotating this member counterclockwise so as to take up the lost motion between the same and link 68 and pull the link downwardly.
- Figure 9 shows choke valve 38 moved to the full open position, as is the case after the thermostat has reached its normal operating temperature.
- Throttle crank 8a is shown, in solid lines, in the full open position with a projecting element l4 overlapping a lip 16 at the lower extremity of link 68 so as to lock the choke open.
- the lower portion of slot 18 is somewhat enlarged so that in case the throttle reaches its fully open position before the choke, the lip 13 can pass around projecting element 15 and drop thereunder by gravity.
- This figure also shows, in broken lines, the position of the throttle crank at normal idle with th abutment screw 1
- cam-like member 84 will be in such position that teeth-like projections 11 will be engaged by throttle screw II to provide a variable fast idle.
- the throttle may gradually ap proach closer to its full closed or normal idle position as the choke valve opens in order that the engine idling speed may be progressively decreased as the choke is opened.
- FIGS 11, 12, and 13 are views showing certain operative parts of another modification in various positions.
- Various carburetor parts may be identical with the corresponding parts in previous figures.
- choke valve 30 is pivotally mounted in the carburetor air horn on shaft 3
- carrying an abutment screw 82 and a projecting pin 83.
- a link 84 is secured at its lower end to throttle shaft 6b and at its upper end as a slot 8 receiving pin 83.
- a spring 86 yieldingly urges link 84 in a counterclockwise direction relative to its pivotal connection 81 with the throttle crank and a spring 88 hooked at one end on stop 89 constantly urges lever 8
- FIG 11 shows choke valve 30 held closed by the thermostat, as for cold starting.
- Disk 18 has an axial projection 98 on the circumference thereof which cooperates with a shoulder 9I on cam-dike member 19 to rotate this member clockwise when the choke is closed, lifting the weighted lobe 92 thereof so as to move a high point 93 in position to be engaged by abutment screw 82 to limit closing movement of the throttle valve to the fast idle position.
- Figure 12 shows the unloading position of the parts with the throttle fully opened and a radial projection 94 on disk 18 engaged by a lip 95 at the upper extremity of link 84 so as to rotate the disk and choke 38 in the counterclockwise or opening direction.
- the choke valve may be opened fully independently of the interconnection mechanism, with the cam-like member held in a fast idle position by screw 82.
- crank 60 rigid with the throttle valve shaft is connected by means of link 280 with one end of an offset lever 21c, pivoted at 28, adjacent air horn 32, on a post or pillow block projecting above the bowl cover and shown in part I88.
- the other end of lever 210 is connected by means of a link I8I to the operating rod I82 on accelerating pump piston I83, the rod extending through the cover of bowl 8.
- Pivoted to lever 210 at I84 is the loose member generally indicated at I05 having its free end movable to a position adjacent link I8I.
- Member I85 has an inwardly extending lip I86 for cooperation with an angular arm 33c, rigid with choke shaft 3I and also has an outwardly and upwardly extending finger I01 extending beneath the pump lever.
- Fig. 15 the choke valve has started to open, as after the thermostat has partly warmed, causing choke arm 33a to rotate counterclockwise and permitting slight dropping of the free end of loose member I85 when released by depression of the pump piston, in turn, caused by the opening of the throttle valve.
- a relatively low point II3 on cam-like projection I88 cooperates with roller II2 to limit lifting of the pump piston and closing of the throttle.
- Point H3 is located somewhat closer to pivot I84 than is point III and, therefore, cooperation of this point with roller II2 permits the choke valve to approach closer to the fully closed position than is shown in Fig. 14, or, in other words, to an interme iate fast idle position.
- Fig. 16 shows the unloading position of the parts in which the throttle valve has been substantially fully opened, rotating pump lever 21c clockwise sumciently to engage curved finger I01 on loose member I05 and cause lip I06 to positively rotate choke arm 330 in a counterclockwise direction for opening the choke.
- the upper edge of projection I08 also engages portion I09 of the pump piston link, but this is not essential.
- finger I01 may be omitted and engagement of the piston link element I09 and the cam-like projection relied upon in unloading.
- the choke and throttle valve interconnection is ineffective with the choke fully opened, as in Fig. 1'7, so that free movement of the throttle is permitted within its full range.
- the throttle With the choke closed, as in Fig. 14, the throttle is permitted substantial opening movement without positively afiecting the choke in the manner shown in Fig. 16.
- the choke With the parts in the fast idle position, the choke may open fully against the thermostat without interference by the interconnection.
- Fig. 20 shows a modified form of choke control including a rectangular housing IIO mounted on carburetor barrel I I I.
- the shaft of choke valve I I2 extends into housing III! as at H3, and carries therein a disc Il4 having an eccentric projection II5.
- Bi-metal coil H6 is secured at its inner end to a pintle III rigid with the housing wall and at its outer end extends downwardly into engagement with projection H5.
- a cylinder H8 carried by housing H has a threaded outer end for coupling with a suction connection, as 53 in Fig.2, and slidably receives piston H9 connected to disc II by link or rod I20.
- An aperture boss I2I provides for coupling a heat connection, as tube I in Fig. 2 with the housing.
- thermostat IIG when cool, yieldingly maintains the choke valve closed, as shown, for starting.
- piston H9 When the engine fires, piston H9 is drawn to the right partially opening the choke against the thermostatic resistance.
- a hole I22 in piston II9 provides for slight leakage of suction for drawing heated gases through coupling I2I into the housing, and when the thermostat has become heated, it winds upon itself releasing the tension of the choke.
- the relationship between choke shaft H3 and projection H5 and connecting rod pin I23 provides for varying the reactive effect between the unbalanced choke valve and the ther- I mostat and suction piston.

- a device of the class described means forming a mixing conduit, a throttle valve and a choke valve for said mixing conduit, heat responsive means for closing said choke valve, said choke valve being mounted on an unbalanced shaft whereby it may be biased toward open position by the direct action of suction thereon, the amount of said suction applied to the choke valve being controlled by said throttle valve, additional suction responsive means for biasing said choke valve toward open position in response to increases of suction posterior to said throttle, mechanical means for biasing said choke valve to ward open position when said throttle is moved to fully open position, whereby the movement of said choke valve to at least partially open position is insured whenever the engine is running with said throttle in fully open or substantially closed position, a control member, a suction operated diaphragm connected to said control member, and a one-way connection between said suction operated diaphragm and said throttle valve.
- connection between the throttle and the choke valves whereby said choke valve may be moved to at least a partly open position by movement of the throttle valve to fully open position
- said interconnection between the throttle and choke valve being constructed and arranged to cause opening movement of the choke valve only after said throttle valve has been opened to a position beyond the range of action of said spring means, and means responsive to suction posterior to the throttle for assisting the movement of the choke valve toward open position.
- a device of the class described means forming a mixing conduit, a throttle valve and a choke valve for said mixing conduit, heat responsive means for closing the choke valve, said choke valve being normally biased towards open position by the direct action of suction thereon, additional suction responsive means for biasing said choke valve towards open position in response to increase of suction posterior to the throttle, mechanical means for biasing said choke valve towards open position when said throttle i moved toward fully open position, a control member, a suction responsive member connected to the control member, and a connection between the suction operated control member and said throttle valve.
- a device of the class described means forming a mixing conduit, a throttle valve and a choke valve for said mixing conduit, heat responsive means for closing the choke valve, said choke valve being mounted on an unbalanced shaft, whereby it may be biased towards open position by the direct action of suction thereon, additional suction resp nsive means for biasing said choke valve towards open position in response to increase of suction posterior to the throttle, mechanical mean for biasing said choke valve towards open position when said throttle is moved toward fully open position, a control member, a suction responsive member connected to the control member, and a one-way connection between the suction operated diaphragm and said throttle valve,
