Abstract
Abstract In the control equipment of a pressure wave supercharger for supercharging vehicle internal combustion engines, a precontrol device is provided to actuate the control device, which precontrol device is connected in each case via a precontrol pressure pipe and a control pressure pipe with one or several of the pressure tapping positions located in the region of the supercharge air duct.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
150 words
In a gas dynamic pressure wave supercharger having a region of high pressure discharge, an exhaust by-pass passage and a by-pass valve opening and closing said by-pass passage, an apparatus for actuating said exhaust by-pass valve comprising: a control device means for opening and closing said by-pass valve in response to a regulating pressure; pressure relief means; and a precontrol device including a body movable between a first position communicating said control device means with said region of high pressure discharge and a second position communicating said control device means with said pressure relief means, means for biasing said body toward said second position and means for introducing pressure in opposition to said biasing means from said region of high pressure discharge such that said body remains at said second position until pressure from said region exceeds said regulating pressure and causes said body to locate at said first position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
150 words
In a gas dynamic pressure wave supercharger having a region of high pressure discharge, an exhaust by-pass passage and a by-pass valve opening and closing said by-pass passage, an apparatus for actuating said exhaust by-pass valve comprising: a control device means for opening and closing said by-pass valve in response to a regulating pressure; pressure relief means; and a precontrol device including a body movable between a first position communicating said control device means with said region of high pressure discharge and a second position communicating said control device means with said pressure relief means, means for biasing said body toward said second position and means for introducing pressure in opposition to said biasing means from said region of high pressure discharge such that said body remains at said second position until pressure from said region exceeds said regulating pressure and causes said body to locate at said first position.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The combination in accordance with claim 1, wherein said region of high pressure discharge includes an expansion pocket and said pressure introducing means includes a tap open to the expansion pocket.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
The combination in accordance with claim 1, wherein said region of high pressure discharge includes a supercharge air duct, an expansion pocket and a protrusion between the supercharge air duct and the expansion pocket, said pressure introducing means including a tap at said protrusion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
The combination in accordance with claim 1, wherein said region of high pressure discharge includes a supercharge air passage with a closing edge, said pressure introducing means including a tap adjacent said closing edge.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
The combination in accordance with claim 1, wherein said region of high pressure discharge includes a supercharge air duct, and said pressure introducing means includes a tap centrally located in the supercharge air duct.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
35 words
The combination in accordance with claim 1, wherein said region of high pressure discharge includes a supercharge air duct and said pressure introducing means includes a tap along the wall of the supercharge air duct.
