Claim 5

The carburetor according to claim 1, wherein said solenoid valve means controls closure and opening of said bypass passage means.

Claim 6

The carburetor according to claim 1, wherein said air suction passage means includes a primary air suction passage and a secondary air suction passage, and both the ends of said bypass passage means are fluidly connected to said secondary air suction passage.

Claim 7

The carburetor according to claim 1, wherein said bypass passage means is defined in the carburetor body.

Claim 8

A carburetor for an internal combustion engine of an automobile, the carburetor comprising: an air suction conduit means having at least one Venturi means provided therein; a throttle valve means disposed in said air suction conduit means downstream of said Venturi means; an air passage defined in a body of the carburetor, one end of said air passage being opened into said air suction conduit means upstream of said throttle valve means, a second end having an air bleed in the body of the carburetor; a fuel passage one end of which is connected to a float chamber, a second end to a fuel jet disposed in the carburetor body so as to face said air bleed with a distance therebetween; a mixture passage defined in the carburetor by, one end of said mixture passage being disposed between said air bleed and said fuel jet and a second end opened into said air suction conduit means downstream of said throttle valve means; an orifice disposed in an intermediate portion of said mixture passage and serving as a valve seat; a solenoid valve provided on said mixture passage so as to engage with said valve seat and control the opening of said orifice so that a rotational speed of the engine during idling is compensated; and a control circuit means for detecting an electric load increase due to use of electric means installed in the automobile and for transmitting electric signals to said solenoid valve.

Claim 9

A carburetor for an internal combustion engine of an automobile, the carburetor comprising: an air suction conduit means having at least one Venturi means provided therein; a throttle valve means disposed in said air suction conduit means downstream of said Venturi means; an air passage defined in a body of the carburetor, one end of said air passage being opened into said air suction conduit means upstream of said throttle valve means, a second end having an air bleed in the body of the carburetor; a fuel passage one end of which is connected to a float chamber, a second end to a fuel jet disposed in the carburetor body so as to face said air bleed with a distance therebetween; a mixture passage defined in the carburetor by, one end of said mixture passage being disposed between said air bleed and said fuel jet and a second end opened into said air suction conduit means downstream of said throttle valve means; an orifice disposed in an intermediate portion of said mixture passage and serving as a valve seat; a solenoid valve provided on said mixture passage so as to engage with said valve seat and control the opening of said orifice so that a rotational speed of the engine during idling is compensated; and a control circuit means for detecting an electric load increase due to use of electric means installed in the automobile and for transmitting electric signals to said solenoid valve.

Claim 10

A carburetor for internal combustion engines comprising: an air suction conduit provided therein at least a Venturi means; a throttle valve disposed in said air suction conduit downstream of said Venturi means; an air passage defined in a body of the carburetor, one end of said air passage being opened into said air suction passage upstream of said throttle valve, the other end having an air bleed in the body of the carburetor; a fuel passage one end of which is connected to a float chamber, the other end to a fuel jet disposed in the carburetor body so as to face said air bleed with a distance spaced therebetween; a mixture passage defined in the carburetor body, one end of said mixture passage being disposed between said air bleed and said fuel jet and end opened to said air suction passage downstream of said throttle valve; an orifice disposed in an intermediate portion of said mixture passage and served as a valve seat; a solenoid valve provided on said mixture passage so as to control the opening of said orifice so that revolution during the idling of the engine is compensated; a secondary mixture passage one end of which is opened to said mixture passage and the other end opened to said suction passage downstream of said throttle valve; a secondary orifice mounted on said secondary mixture passage; and a secondary solenoid valve provided on said secondary mixture passage so as to control the opening of said secondary orifice so that the revolution of the engine during the idling of the engine is further compensated.

Claim 11

A carburetor for internal combustion engines comprising: an air suction conduit provided therein at least a Venturi means; a throttle valve disposed in said air suction conduit downstream of said Venturi means; an air passage defined in a body of the carburetor, one end of said air passage being opened into said air suction passage upstream of said throttle valve, the other end having an air bleed in the body of the carburetor; a fuel passage one end of which is connected to a float chamber, the other end to a fuel jet disposed in the carburetor body so as to face said air bleed with a distance spaced therebetween; a mixture passage defined in the carburetor body, one end of said mixture passage being disposed between said air bleed and said fuel jet and end opened to said air suction passage downstream of said throttle valve; an orifice disposed in an intermediate portion of said mixture passage and served as a valve seat; a solenoid valve provided on said mixture passage so as to control the opening of said orifice so that revolution during the idling of the engine is compensated; a secondary mixture passage one end of which is opened to said mixture passage and the other end opened to said suction passage downstream of said throttle valve; a secondary orifice mounted on said secondary mixture passage; and a secondary solenoid valve provided on said secondary mixture passage so as to control the opening of said secondary orifice so that the revolution of the engine during the idling of the engine is further compensated.
