Abstract

Abstract An apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor in which an internal combustion engine has a fly-wheel with a magneto incorporated therewith. An intake air passage has an electromagnetic valve and this valve is actuated by an output signal of a primary coil of the fly-wheel magneto. In one embodiment, the electromagnetic valve is actuated by an output difference between an output signal of a primary coil produced when a start motor is rotated and an output signal of the primary coil produced when the engine is rotated.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 59 words
An apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor, wherein an internal combustion engine provided with a fly-wheel magneto for supplying start fuel from a fuel chamber of a carburetor to an air intake passage via an electromagnetic valve characterized in the said electromagnetic valve is actuated by an output signal of a primary coil of said fly-wheel magneto.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 59 words
An apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor, wherein an internal combustion engine provided with a fly-wheel magneto for supplying start fuel from a fuel chamber of a carburetor to an air intake passage via an electromagnetic valve characterized in the said electromagnetic valve is actuated by an output signal of a primary coil of said fly-wheel magneto.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
The apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor according to claim 1, wherein said electromagnetic valve is actuated by an output difference between an output signal of a primary coil produced when the engine is cranked and an output signal of a primary coil produced when the engine is rotated in an idling mode.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 39 words
The apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor according to claim 1, wherein when the engine is cranked, said electromagnetic valve is opened, and when the engine is rotated in an idling mode, said electromagnetic valve is closed.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 33 words
The apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor according to claim 1, wherein the output signal of the primary coil of said fly-wheel magneto is a voltage produced in the primary coil.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 33 words
The apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor according to claim 1, wherein the output signal of the primary coil of said fly-wheel magneto is a current produced in the primary coil.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 34 words
The apparatus for supplying start fuel for a carburetor according to claim 1, wherein the output signal of the primary coil of said fly-wheel magneto is the pulse number produced in the primary coil.
