Electronically controlled fuel injection system

Claim 2

An electronically controlled fuel injection system for an engine exhaust system comprising an oxygen content detector mounted in said exhaust system for detecting the oxygen content in the exhaust gas to generate a control signal, computer means connected to said detecting means for producing a fuel injection signal which varies in length as a function of said control signal and a plurality of fuel injection valves mounted on the intake system of the engine and connected to said computer means for repetitively injecting the fuel into the engine in response to said injection signal, said valves being divided into at least first and second groups, the valves in one group having a diameter of injection opening greater than the valves of the other group so that said valves in said one group each inject a greater quantity of fuel than the valves of said other group an exhaust line for each of said groups of valves with one of said lines mounting said oxygen content detecting means so that said detecting means produces said control signal as a function of the ratio in that line, thereby controlling the overall air-fuel ratio at a different set value from the theoretical one.

Claim 3

An electronically controlled fuel injection system for an engine having an intake system and exhaust system, comprising, an oxygen content detector mounted in said exhaust system for detecting the oxygen content in the exhaust gas flowing in said exhaust system to produce a control signal, a computer connected with said oxygen content detector for producing a fuel injection signal in response to said control signal, and fuel injection valves mounted on said intake system and connected with said computor for injecting the fuel into said engine in response to said fuel injection signal, wherein, said exhaust system is divided into at least two lines and said oxygen content detector is mounted in one of said two lines, said fuel injection valves are also divided into at least two groups which respectively correspond to said two lines of said exhaust system, and said fuel injection valve of one of said two groups has smaller injection opening than the other, the difference of size between said smaller injection opening and the other being substantial and designed so that both fuel injection valves may inject different amounts of fuel, thereby controlling the air-fuel ratio at a predetermined value.

Claim 4

An electronically controlled fuel injection system for an engine having an intake system and exhaust system, comprising, an oxygen content detector mounted in said exhaust system for detecting the oxygen content in the exhaust gas flowing in said exhaust system to produce a control signal, a computer connected with said oxygen content detector for producing a fuel injection signal in response to said control signal, and fuel injection valves mounted on said intake system and connected with said computor for injecting the fuel into said engine in response to said fuel injection signal, wherein, said exhaust system is divided into at least two lines and said oxygen content detector is mounted in one of said two lines, said fuel injection valves are also divided into at least two groups which respectively correspond to said two lines of said exhaust system, and said fuel injection valve of one of said two groups has smaller injection opening than the other, the difference of size between said smaller injection opening and the other being substantial and designed so that both fuel injection valves may inject different amounts of fuel, thereby controlling the air-fuel ratio at a predetermined value.
