Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for conducting the fuel to the suction pipe of combustion engines, to which the combustion air is temporarily supplied by a compressor or its equivalent under a pressure, which exceeds the pressure of the surrounding air.
- This feature is to be mainly considered for the motors of aeroplanes, as such motors must be adapted to operate in various altitudes.
- the combustion air is suitably supplied by means of a compressor for the purpose of obviating the loss of efliciency, due to the decreasing density of the air at increasing height of'ascension.
- Such an artificial .air supply can also be employed for thepurpose of conferring temporarily tothe motor an efiiciency, which exceeds the normal efliciency (without employing a compressor) at the operation under normal pressure. If in this manner an render this procedure possible, it is, of.
- the device forming the subject matter of increase of the efficiency of the motor is obof the supplied fuel, so that the latter can the present invention now makes it possible to dispense with such a high pressure in the fuel tank.
- the fuel is fed into the carbureter at normal operation, that is to say, when the motor operates Without the compressor, by means of the usual feed pressure prevailing in the fuel tank, when, however, the compressor is employed for sup plying the combustion air, the fuel, after leaving the fuel tank, is put under a corresponding higher pressure, so that said fuel can overcome in the suction pipe the pressure of the air current streaming in by the compressor, Without however, exposing the fuel tank to the increased fuel pressure. This is done by a pump interposed in the fuel pipe between the fuel tank and a carburetter.
- Figs. 1 and 2 are diagrammatical representations of the combination and ar-v rangement of parts forming the invention, the form illustrated in Fig. 1 showing the employment of a piston pump and that shown in Fig. 2 illustrating the use of a rotary geared pump.
- a is the fuel tank, in which the fuel is put under pressure by any suitable'manually or mechanically operated means.
- the fuel passes from the tank d through the pipe 7 to 1 a pump, which may be either a piston pump y pipe of the compressor I construction,
- a rotary pump 9' as shown in Fig. 2; from the pum the fuel passes throu h the pipe 11 into the cat space of the car ureter and through the nozzle thereof into the mixing space ofsaid carbureter.
- the carbureter or specifically the mixing space thereof is connected with the pressure 6, as well as with the suction pipe of the mot-or a.
- the pipe 0 is provided with a cutout m of any suitable and the geared rotary pump g is driven independently of the engine by any suitable driving means 01, and has a certain play between the teeth. of its rotary members, and a certain play is left between said rotary members and the outer portions of the circumferential wall of the pump casing.
- a fuel feedingdevice for combustion engines comprising in combination, a carbureter arranged to normally operate in combination with a supply of air at a predetermined normal pressure, a fuel tank, a pipe connection between said tank and carbureter whereby fuel is supplied to the latter for admixture with the air at said predetermined normal ressure, means communicating with said car ureter whereby the pressure of the aforesaid air supply is increased beyond said predetermined normal pressure, means rovided in said pipe connection for incresmg the pressure of the fuel supplied to the carbureter, in a manner to overcome the resistance interposed by the increased air pressure to ,the entry'of said fuel into said carbureter, and a conduit leading from the carbureter to the engine whereby a mixture pressure,

- a fuel feeding device for combustion engines comprising tank, a carbureter, a pipe connection between said fuel tank and carbureter for delivering fuel to the latter, means operated at will for supplying combustion air to the carbureter under increased pressure, and a pump in said pipe connection operated independently of the engine to increase the pressure of the fuel after it leaves the fuel tank, in accordance with the increased air pressure whereby resistance said fuel into the carbureter when increased air pressure exists therein is overcome, said in combination a fuel to the entry of ump when at rest permitting the, passage
