Abstract
Abstract The device has a main jet for normal operation and an idling circuit, both opening into the intake pipe and provided with calibrated orifices to adjust the richness of the air/fuel mixture. An adjustable throttle enables the idling mixture to be adjusted. The adjustable throttle can be bypassed through a passage to the mixing channel during deceleration. The passage has a closing member actuated by a capsule governed by the suction in the intake and by a member sensitive to the engine''s speed. When the bypass is closed the capsule is connected to atmospheric pressure. The capsule is fixed to an element compensating for altitude.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
279 words
Carburetion device comprising two separate supply circuits for fuel generally mixed with air, namely a main jet circuit for normal operation and an idling circuit both opening into the intake pipe of the device, which idling circuit comprises a mixing channel at which an air supply channel and a fuel supply channel terminate, provided respectively with calibrated orifices adapted to adjust the richness of the air/fuel mixture, and which is provided with an adjustable throttle enabling the user to adjust the flow of mixture which is sucked on idling through said mixing channel by means of an orifice opening into the zone of the intake pipe situated downstream of its main throttle member actuated by the driver, at least when said throttle member is closed, and a bypass passage connected to the mixing channel so as to bypass said adjustable throttle and adapted to be freed, during periods of deceleration, by a closing member which is actuated by a first suction sensitive means sensitive to the suction existing in said zone which is transmitted to it through a member sensitive to the speed of the engine, said speedsensitive member being constituted by a second suction sensitive means sensitive to the suction existing at a point of the intake pipe situated so as to pass from down-stream to upstream of the main throttle member when the latter is slightly opened, said first suction sensitive means being arranged to be subjected to atmospheric pressure when said closing member isolates said bypass passage and said second suction sensitive means being constituted by a capsule containing a spring, said capsule being housed in a chamber connected to said point of the intake pipe.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
Carburetion device according to claim 1, wherein a variable volume chamber of said first suction sensitive means communicates permanently, through an orifice of small section, with a zone in which exists a pressure substantially equal to atmospheric pressure.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
66 words
Carburetion device according to claim 1, wherein said capsule is anchored on an element adapted to be displaced as a function of the difference between atmospheric pressure and the pressure existing at said point of the intake pipe, so that the lower the atmospheric pressure the lower must be the pressure existing at said point for it to be transmitted to the first suction sensitive means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
48 words
Carburetion device according to claim 3, including a casing bounding said chamber, an element adapted to be spacially modified with respect to said casing and of which it forms the sealed bottom, said element being constituted by a rigid part to which said capsule is fixed by screwing.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
15 words
Carburetion device according to claim 4, wherein said element is constituted by a metallic bellows.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
44 words
Multiple carburetion device, constituted by the combiNation of at least two single carburetion devices according to claim 1, and including a single bypass passage opening into a tube uniting the intake pipes of the single carburetion devices, downstream of their respective main throttle members.
