Fuel flow restricting and filter assembly
Abstract
Abstract A tubular body for interposing in a fuel flow line to a fuel metering induction assembly of the type adapted to meter measured quantities of fuel for mixing with a combustion supporting gas. The body has a passage formed therethrough and a midportion of the passage defines a flow restrictive zone for reducing fluid pressure pulses. Also, the passage includes a zone of increased cross-sectional area intermediate the inlet end of the passage and the fuel flow restrictive zone for further reducing fluid pressure pulses. The zone of increased cross-sectional area is provided with a transverse filter body through which fuel flowing through the tubular body must pass and thus the filter body is afforded maximum filter area with each unit of cross-sectional area of the filter body subject to a minimum flow of fuel therethrough.
