Abstract

Abstract An exhaust gas recirculation control system for an internal combustion engine for removing nitrogen oxides (NOx) in exhaust gases comprises a positive pressure delay valve in a negative pressure passage for introducing intake negative pressure in the proximity of a throttle valve of a carburetor into an exhaust gas recirculation control valve to maintain the negative pressure therein during an acceleration, thereby effecting the exhaust gas recirculation even when accelerating to purify the nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas. The exhaust gas recirculation control system further comprises a positive pressure delay valve in an advance negative pressure passage for introducing the intake negative pressure in the vicinity of the throttle valve of a carburetor into a distributor and synchronized with the above positive pressure delay valve to maintain the distributor advanced, thereby keeping a good combustion of fuel mixture.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
In an exhaust gas recirculation control system including a negative pressure passage for introducing intake negative pressure in the proximity of a throttle valve of a carburetor into an exhaust gas recirculation control valve, which control valve is constructed to open when said intake negative pressure is applied thereto, and an advance negative pressure passage for introducing the intake negative pressure in the proximity of the throttle valve of the carburetor into a distributor, the improvement comprising positive pressure delay valves provided in said negative pressure and advance negative pressure passages, respectively, said delay valves each comprising a bypass orifice and a check valve, said delay valves connected in said passages for permitting flow through said check valve from said control valve and said distributor, respectively, to said intake negative pressure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
In an exhaust gas recirculation control system including a negative pressure passage for introducing intake negative pressure in the proximity of a throttle valve of a carburetor into an exhaust gas recirculation control valve, which control valve is constructed to open when said intake negative pressure is applied thereto, and an advance negative pressure passage for introducing the intake negative pressure in the proximity of the throttle valve of the carburetor into a distributor, the improvement comprising positive pressure delay valves provided in said negative pressure and advance negative pressure passages, respectively, said delay valves each comprising a bypass orifice and a check valve, said delay valves connected in said passages for permitting flow through said check valve from said control valve and said distributor, respectively, to said intake negative pressure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
A system as set forth in claim 1, wherein a negative pressure regulator is provided in said negative pressure passage upstream of said positive pressure delay valve provided in said negative pressure passage.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 41 words
A system as set forth in claim 1 or 2, wherein to said negative pressure passage are connected air passages for introducing atmosphere thereinto with the aid of an electromagnetic valve which operates when it senses a deceleration of an engine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 47 words
A system as set forth in claim 1 or 2, wherein to said negative pressure and advance negative pressure passages are respectively connected air passages for introducing the atmosphere thereinto with the aid of an electromagnetic valve which operates when it senses a deceleration of an engine.
