Abstract
Abstract A fuel supplying system for a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine. A first charge forming device supplies a fuel/air charge to the crankcase and a second charge forming device supplies a fuel/air charge to the scavenge passage that connects the crankcase with the combustion chamber. A check valve is positioned in the scavenge passage so as to prevent reverse flow and the discharge of the second charge forming device is related to the check valve so as to improve the fuel delivery.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 22
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
A charge forming arrangement for an internal combustion engine comprising an induction passage for delivering a charge to a combustion chamber of said engine, reed-type check valve for precluding flow through said induction passage until pressure thereacross exceeds a predetermined value, a fuel bowl adapted to contain a source of fuel at substantive atmospheric pressure, and a fuel discharge nozzle for delivering fuel into said induction passage between said combustion chamber and said check valve means, and conduit means for delivering fuel from said fuel bowl to said fuel discharge nozzle for discharge of fuel therefrom in response to a pressure difference between said fuel bowl and an outlet of said discharge nozzle wherein said fuel discharge nozzle is positioned contiguous to a periphery of a tip of said reed-type valve.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
A charge forming arrangement for an internal combustion engine comprising an induction passage for delivering a charge to a combustion chamber of said engine, reed-type check valve for precluding flow through said induction passage until pressure thereacross exceeds a predetermined value, a fuel bowl adapted to contain a source of fuel at substantive atmospheric pressure, and a fuel discharge nozzle for delivering fuel into said induction passage between said combustion chamber and said check valve means, and conduit means for delivering fuel from said fuel bowl to said fuel discharge nozzle for discharge of fuel therefrom in response to a pressure difference between said fuel bowl and an outlet of said discharge nozzle wherein said fuel discharge nozzle is positioned contiguous to a periphery of a tip of said reed-type valve.
