- ABSTRACT A fuel injection nozzle for an internal combustion engine wherein the nozzle is disposed in the air intake passageway generally diametrically.
- the fuel is directed to the nozzle under pressure by a pump and metering valve.
- the nozzle has a central bore and transverse bores spaced along the length of the nozzle and at intervals from the wall of the intake manifold.
- This invention relates generally to an improvement in fuel injection nozzles for internal combustion engines and in one aspect to an improved nozzle for distributing the fuel to mix with the air in moving through the intake manifold.
- Fuel control systems for internal combustion engines have included nozzles for atomizing the fuel injected under pressure into the intake manifold. Most nozzles have a discharge opening of reduced size to cause a spray type of discharge and others have one nozzle disposed within a holder wherein air is permitted to enter the holder around the nozzle to atomize the fuel discharged into the air stream under pressure.
- US. Letters Pat. No. 3,416,738 discloses a nozzle which varies from the other nozzles and is believed more closely related to the present invention.
- fuel is atomized by discharge from a tube extending into the manifold. The tube has a closed end and the fuel is discharged from the tube toward an opening in a jacket tube surrounding the tube. The jacket tube is vented to the atmosphere however and changes in the inlet manifold vacuum level have little effect on the fuel discharge.
- the present invention relates to nozzles designed to balance the atomization and fuel discharge to changes in the amount of air moving into the intake manifold.
- the present invention provides an improved fuel injection system in that the fuel is discharged under pressure from a nozzle disposed in the intake manifold mounted on the engine. Except for the presence of the nozzle itself the intake manifold is not incumbered. The fuel is pumped to the nozzle and the flow of fuel into the nozzle increases as the speed of the engine increases and as the amount of air allowed into the cylin der increases under control of the throttle. All of which are balanced by design to increase efficiency of the enine. g It is an object of the present invention to increase the efficiency of the engine by providing a nozzle affording a positive fuel injection and mixing in the intake manifold in response to increased demands of the engine.
- the fuel injection system of the present invention utilizes a fuel injection nozzle extending into the intake manifold in advance of the butterfly air control valve.
- the nozzle of this fuel control system comprises a slender tubular member having a reduced or restricted central bore and a plurality of passageways or bores disposed transverse to and communicating with said central bore. Fuel is inserted into one end of the nozzle and directed through the central bore and as the intake air moves over the tubular member, which is preferably cylindrical, the air draws the fuel from the transverse bores, atomizes it and carries it into the combustion chamber of the engine.
- An additional high speed fuel metering valve may be disposed between the flow control valve and the nozzle to obtain the ideal fuel and air ratio at open throttle position. This high speed metering valve is preferably adjustable to tune the high speed operation of the engine.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates generally to an improvement in fuel injection nozzles for internal combustion engines and in one aspect to an improved nozzle for distributing the fuel to mix with the air in moving through the intake manifold.
Fuel control systems for internal combustion engines have included nozzles for atomizing the fuel injected under pressure into the intake manifold. Most nozzles have a discharge opening of reduced size to cause a spray type of discharge and others have one nozzle disposed within a holder wherein air is permitted to enter the holder around the nozzle to atomize the fuel discharged into the air stream under pressure. US. Letters Pat. No. 3,416,738 discloses a nozzle which varies from the other nozzles and is believed more closely related to the present invention. In this nozzle fuel is atomized by discharge from a tube extending into the manifold. The tube has a closed end and the fuel is discharged from the tube toward an opening in a jacket tube surrounding the tube. The jacket tube is vented to the atmosphere however and changes in the inlet manifold vacuum level have little effect on the fuel discharge.
The present invention relates to nozzles designed to balance the atomization and fuel discharge to changes in the amount of air moving into the intake manifold.
With either downdraft or horizontal intake carburetors the fuel is drawn from the fuel bowl into the intake manifold by atomization using a venturi throat located at the outlet opening of the fuel bowl, thus drawing the fuel into the intake air. The decreased pressure at the venturi is used to draw the fuel from the bowl and supposedly atomizes the fuel before it is injected into the cylinders. These systems depend on the engine vacuum to draw the air through the venturi and to draw the fuel into the cylinders. Since the venturi restricts the amount of air that can be drawn into the engine it is less efficient as the speed of the engine increases.
The present invention provides an improved fuel injection system in that the fuel is discharged under pressure from a nozzle disposed in the intake manifold mounted on the engine. Except for the presence of the nozzle itself the intake manifold is not incumbered. The fuel is pumped to the nozzle and the flow of fuel into the nozzle increases as the speed of the engine increases and as the amount of air allowed into the cylin der increases under control of the throttle. All of which are balanced by design to increase efficiency of the enine. g It is an object of the present invention to increase the efficiency of the engine by providing a nozzle affording a positive fuel injection and mixing in the intake manifold in response to increased demands of the engine.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The fuel injection system of the present invention utilizes a fuel injection nozzle extending into the intake manifold in advance of the butterfly air control valve.
The nozzle of this fuel control system comprises a slender tubular member having a reduced or restricted central bore and a plurality of passageways or bores disposed transverse to and communicating with said central bore. Fuel is inserted into one end of the nozzle and directed through the central bore and as the intake air moves over the tubular member, which is preferably cylindrical, the air draws the fuel from the transverse bores, atomizes it and carries it into the combustion chamber of the engine. An additional high speed fuel metering valve may be disposed between the flow control valve and the nozzle to obtain the ideal fuel and air ratio at open throttle position. This high speed metering valve is preferably adjustable to tune the high speed operation of the engine.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The present invention will be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawing wherein:
FIG. I is a schematic view of a fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine and includes a nozzle all constructed according to the present invention;
FIGS. 2 and 3 are detail sectional views of the operation of the nozzle of the system;
FIG. 4l is an enlarged detail view of the injection nozzle shown in FIGS. 1 to 3;
FIG. 5 is a detail view of another embodiment of the injection nozzle;
FIG. 6 is a detail view of a further embodiment of the injection nozzle; and
FIG. 7 is a detail view of another injection nozzle having portions thereof broken away and portions illustrated in section.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Referring now to the drawing, there is illustrated a single cylinder of an internal combustion engine 7. The engine 7 includes a crank case secured to a head or frame formed with the cylinder wall 10. A piston 12 is connected by a rod with a crank of a crank shaft. The head 9 is also formed with cooling fins and suitable manifolds for intake and exhaust.
The fuel injection system of the present invention for the engine 7 serves to inject fuel under pressure into an open throat of the intake manifold which is joined to the intake opening in the cylinder wall. The fuel control system includes a storage reservoir 13 for a supply of fuel. A line is connected to the discharge opening of the reservoir 13 and carries fuel to a fuel pump 16. The fuel pump 16 pumps the fuel through a fuel line 18 to a control valve 19 having an inlet port and a pair of discharge passageways leading to lines 20 and 21. The discharge line 20 is connected to the supply reservoir 13. The line 21' is directed to the injection nozzle 25. Within the fuel line 20 is disposed a restriction which serves to maintain an injection pressure in the fuel supply system.
The flow control valve 19 adjusts the amount of fuel pumped into line 21 in response to the opening of the air inlet butterfly valve 26 by the throttle, which valve 26 is disposed in the intake manifold 28 between the nozzle 25 and the cylinder intake port or intake valve. A linkage 29 and 30 connects the valve 26 to the valve 119. As indicated in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the valve 26 controls the amount of air to enter the cylinder. With the valve 26 closed, the inlet manifold vacuum level draws air and fuel through the idle passageway 31 in the wall of manifold 28, bypassing the valve 26. As the valve opens, FIG. 2, the air is drawn around the nozzle 25 drawing fuel therefrom and as it opens, FIG. 3, the fuel is withdrawn from the full length of the nozzle. As the valve 26 opens the air pressure increases from adjacent the walls of the manifold 28 toward the center. This pressure is accommodated by nozzle design.
The nozzle 25, as most clearly shown in FIG. 4, comprises a slender cylindrical rod 32 formed with an axial center bore 33 extending substantially therethrough. One end of the rod has an enlarged end or sleeve to define a fitting atthe inlet to join the nozzle to the fuel line 21. The fitting has a bore or main jet 35 smaller in ameters along its length. The rod has an idle bore 43, and transverse bores 44 and 45. The transverse bores 44 adjacent the wall of the manifold are disposed in the larger part of the rod and are chamfered as at 46 to aid in atomization where air pressure is lowest. A main jet 47 leads into the central bore 42. The nozzle 40 is adapted for use with engines having lower displacement as used in chain saws or small snowmobiles, perhaps up to 300 cubic centimeters displacement.
The injection nozzle 50 shown in FIG. 6 is formed of a rod 51 with a central bore 52, a main jet 53, an idle bore 54 and a plurality of spaced transverse bores 55, all parallel and extending in the same direction from f the bore 52 on one side of the diametrical line through the axis thereof. The nozzle 50 is adapted for engines having between 300 and 400 cubic centimeters displacement.
The nozzle 60, shown in FIG. 7, comprises a slender cylindrical rod 61 formed with an axial center bore 63. One end of the rod is formed with a counter sink bore to form an inlet end to the axial bore 63. A plurality of transverse bores 64 connect the outer surface of the rod with the axial bore 63. The bores 64 all extend diametrically through the rod 61. The size of the axial bore 63 and transverse bores 64 may vary depending on the size of the engine. For example, in a 90cc engine the bore diameters may be 0.010 inch, for the 400cc engine the diameters may be 0.030 inch, and with a 650cc diameter than the bore 33. A plurality of parallel transengine the bore diameters may be between 0.070 and verse bores 36 and 37 connect the outer surface of the rod with the central bore 33. The rod is disposed in the intake manifold 28 in a direction with its axis generally normal to the axis of the manifold and to the path of the 0.090 inch.
The main jets in the nozzles serve to restrict fuel flow upon rapid changes in throttle position from closed to open. The fuel pump 16 will deliver fuel to the nozzles air through the intake manifold. The bores 36 and 37 at pressures between 2 and 6 pounds gauge. The air inmay be aligned with the axis of the manifold, which is generally the position, however they may be disposed normal to the direction of the moving air through the intake manifold as this aids in drawing the fuel from the take passageway of the intake manifold 28 has an internal diameter of about 1% inches.
The nozzles preferably have the following characteristics within the ranges indicated:

The idle jets have a diameter of 0.01 8 to 0.080 inch.
