Carburetor with fuel compensation device

Claim 2

A carburetor with a fuel compensation device for an internal combustion engine comprising a suction passage having a Venturi, a main fuel nozzle fluidly communicating with a float chamber for jetting fuel from the float chamber into the suction chamber, and throttle valve disposed downstream of the main fuel nozzle with respect to a fluid flow flowing in the suction passage, exhaust gas recirculation means for recirculating an exhaust gas from the engine through the exhaust gas recirculation means, the suction passage, and the engine, means responsive to vacuum at a position of the suction slightly upstream of a position of the throttle valve at which idling of the engine is effected, for controlling an exhaust gas flow flowing from the engine into the suction passage corresponding to the vacuum, auxiliary fuel jet means for jetting fuel from the float chamber into the suction passage in response to the same vacuum as the vacuum to which the means for controlling the exhaust gas flow is responsive, and valve means for controlling both the means for controlling the exhaust gas flow and the auxiliary fuel jet means.

Claim 3

The carburetor as defined in claim 1, wherein the means for controlling the exhaust gas flow comprises an exhaust gas recirculation valve, a vacuum intake port defined in the suction passage at the position slightly upstream of the position of the throttle valve which the engine is idling, and passage means for communication between the exhaust gas recirculation valve and the vacuum intake port, so that the exhaust gas is controlled by the exhaust gas recirculation valve in response to the vacuum at the vacuum intake port.

Claim 4

The carburetor as defined in claim 2, wherein the auxiliary fuel jet means comprises an auxiliary fuel jet port defined in the suction passage at the position slightly upstream of the position of the throttle valve at which the engine is idling, and passage means for communication between the auxiliary fuel jet port and the float chamber.

Claim 5

The carburetor as defined in claim 2, wherein the auxiary fuel jet means comprises the vacuum intake port and passage means for fluidly connecting the vacuum intake port with the float chamber.

Claim 6

A carburetor with a fuel compensation device for an internal combustion engine comprising a suction passage having a Venturi, a main fuel nozzle fluidly communicating with a float chamber for jetting fuel from the float chamber into the suction chamber, and a throttle valve disposed downstream of the main fuel nozzle with respect to a fluid flow flowing in the suction passage, an exhaust gas recirculation passage for introducing an exhaust gas from the engine into the suction passage, first valve means responsive to vacuum, for controlling a quantity of the exhaust gas in the exhaust gas recirculation passage corresponding to the vacuum, a vacuum package by which the first valve means fluidly communicates with a vacuum intake port of the suction passage, the vacuum intake port being disposed slightly downstream of a position of the throttle valve at which idling of the engine can be kept, second valve means for controlling an opening of the vacuum passage, an auxiliary fuel passage by which the float chamber fluidly communicates with an auxiliary fuel jet port disposed at the same position as the vacuum intake port, and third valve means for controlling an opening of the auxiliary fuel passage,

Claim 7

A carburetor with a fuel compensation device for an internal combustion engine comprising a suction passage having a Venturi, a main fuel nozzle fluidly communicating with a float chamber for jetting fuel from the float chamber into the suction chamber, and a throttle valve disposed downstream of the main fuel nozzle with respect to a fluid flow flowing in the suction passage, an exhaust gas recirculation passage for introducing an exhaust gas from the engine into the suction passage, first valve means responsive to vacuum, for controlling a quantity of the exhaust gas in the exhaust gas recirculation passage corresponding to the vacuum, a vacuum package by which the first valve means fluidly communicates with a vacuum intake port of the suction passage, the vacuum intake port being disposed slightly downstream of a position of the throttle valve at which idling of the engine can be kept, second valve means for controlling an opening of the vacuum passage, an auxiliary fuel passage by which the float chamber fluidly communicates with an auxiliary fuel jet port disposed at the same position as the vacuum intake port, and third valve means for controlling an opening of the auxiliary fuel passage,

Claim 8

The carburetor as defined in claim 5, wherein the third valve means comprises a valve body, and a solenoid for electrically driving the valve body.

Claim 9

The carburetor as defined in claim 5, wherein the third valve means comprises a valve body, a diaphragm securing the valve body thereto, a vacuum chamber part of which is defined by the diaphragm so that the vacuum chamber is expansible in response to vacuum, and a vacuum passage by which the vacuum chamber communicate with the second valve so that the third valve means and the first valve means are controlled at the same time.
