- ABSTRACT Apparatus for decontamination of internal combustion engine exhaust gases by the preparation of a flammable and ignitable air-fuel mixture with a variable air ratio figure )t by means of a throttle flap adjustment for regulating the fuel jet flow resistance, and which is adjustable such that fuel atomization is performed. This is ac complished by the fact that the airstream flowing from the air filter to the carburetor, particularly in the lower engine r.p.m. range i.e.
- the throttle flap swivel range is small, is accelerated in the crescent-shaped gap be tween throttle flap (10) and carburetor duct wall (20), on the whole throttle flap semi-circumference facing the fuel jets, to nearly sonic or supersonic speed. Furthermore, at the throttle flap swivel range in the medium engine operating range at subsonic speed, the air stream flowing from the air filter to the carburetor is additionally accelerated by further jet effect, whereas the airstream from the air filter to the carburetor in the operating range up to full engine load is homogenized by very intensive elimination of the turbulence.
- This invention relates to both procedures for decontamination of internal combustion engine exhaust gases by preparation of a flammable and ignitable air-fuel mixture, with a variable air ratio figure A adjustable by a throttle flap regulating the hydraulic resistance in the fuel jets which is adjustable in such a way that fuel atomization is performed and to devices for the implementation of such procedures.
- the starter flap and throttle flap control'the carburetor hydraulic resistance against the fresh air stream to the engine and/or internal combustion engine.
- the starter flap provides for reducing of the air portion in the air-fuel mixture during starting, and thus leads to a rich mixture.
- the task of the throttle flap is to regulate the mixture flown through by influencing the functioning of the various fuel jets.
- a high vacuum of about 5 6,000 mm WS results in the inlet manifold and causes the idle jet to operate.
- a relatively rich mixture of e.g. A 0.95 is provided. If the throttle flap is further opened, the main fuel jet equipped with a venturi-arrangement starts operating and supplies a mixture with a mainly constant and relatively high air-fuel ratio of A 1.0.
- smooth running can only be reached if all cylinders operate properly and without combustion interruptions, as e.g. can be caused by a partial air rarefaction.
- the invention relates to the procedures of a homogenized mixture production and distribution in the carburetor, and in particular in the area of the throttle flap and its forms, taking into consideration the flow developments in the carburetor with the effects on the hydraulic resistance for the fuel flow on the various jets.
- The'task of the invention is to largely decontaminate internal combustion engine exhaust gases and to form carburetors and supplementary devices for carburetors in such a way as to guarantee a widest possible decontarnination of internal combustion engine exhaust gases.
- the gas flow speeds in the cross sections of the fresh air supply from the air filter to the carburetor and behind the carburetor for the airfuel mixture in the suction tube to the cylinder reach a speed of as much as 0.15 and 0.2 Mach, at Reynolds numbers of up to 1.0 X 10 and/or 1.5 X 10 i.e. in the range of aerodynamics, so that flow processes can be handled according to the basic equations for incompressible flows.
- the task of the invention is solved by the fact that, for the decontamination of internal combustion engine exhaust gases by preparation of a flammable and ignitable air-fuel mixture with a variable air ratio figure A by means of a throttle flap adjustment regulating the hydraulic resistance in the fuel jets, and which is adjustable such that fuel atomization is performed, a procedure is applied in which the airstream-speed flowing from the air filter to the carburetor, particularly in the lower engine rpm. range, i.e.
- the throttle flap swivel range is small, is accelerated in the cresent-shaped gap between throttle flap and carburetor duct wall on the whole throttle flap semi-circumference facing the fuel jets, to nearly sonic or supersonic speed, and that furthermore, at the throttle flap swivel range in the medium engine operating range, at subsonic speeds, the air stream flowing from the air filter to the carburetor, is additionally accelerated by jet effect in the throttle flap area, whereas the air stream from the filter to the carburetor in the operating range up to full engine load, is homogenized by very intensive elimination of the turbulence.
- the air-fuel mixture flow, flowing off from the throttle flap area is divided into an internal and a wall channel flow, the time-controlled supplied additional air being superimposed on the wall channel in the form of a revolving flow, so that the more dense and slowly evaporating fuel composites being still liquid will remain in the fuel film streaming off.

- FIG. 21 Diagram showing the portion of flow stream in relation to the air ratio figure A, at a D- mm throttle flap diameter and a mixture flow speed V FIG. 1 clearly shows the functional requirements of an exhaust gas decontamination system.
- the idling adjustment is such that the air ratio figure A is between 0.9 and 1.0, preferably at 0.95.
- a reduction of the fuel portion in the air-fuel mixture to A 1.1 to 1.15 must be performed.
- FIG. 2 shows an additional device for a state-of-theart carburetor, in the form of a throttle flap 10. It has ring-shaped rims l1 and 12, which are of protruding form at 14 and at least partially blocks the bypass jets 20A and thereby cover the effective operating range of the bypass jets 20A in the carburetor duct 20.
- a sniffle valve 110 can also be arranged at that side of throttle flap 10 which is free of rims.
- an air regulating plate 30 will be arranged below a standard state-of-the-art carburetor, having inserts and 104 for the purpose of forming a ram jet with post carburetor effect.
- This air regulation plate 30 possesses a lateral, preferably jet-formed bore 39 for the supply of fresh air regulated by a fresh air transmitter.
- the distances in carburetor duct 20 which can preferably be used flow-technically for the mixture formation at little swivel angles, are identified as a and b, with the possibility of producing both good surface finish and fit or distance a, between carburetor duct 20 and throttle flap 10, whereas distance [1 has a greater surface roughness, which can, if required, later on be roughened up to knurled-roughness in order to produce a wave form with Mach-angle sin a l/M characteristics particularly if a transsonic flow occurs, or in the supersonic case M g 1.
- Throttle flap 10 has a smaller dia. d than the inner dia. D of carburetor duct 20, whereby an annular clearances as shown on FIG. 4 is formed and guaranteed, which results from the determination of the idling r.p.m. and the idling jet bore 208 selected.
- the ring-shaped rims 11 and 12 are only arranged around half of the circumference of throttle flap l0, namely in the idle-jet bore 20B area and bypass-jet bore 20A area.
- the ring-shaped rims 11 and 12 can also extend over half of the throttle flap circumference.
- This version can be of importance to multiple stage carburetors in the bore of the second stage which becomes effective only at a speed which is higher than that of the idling r.p.m.
- the ringshaped rims l1 and 12 can e.g. be of such a form that the height of the rim is determined by'the swivel angle position by arranging the maximum elevation at that side pointing upwards, whereas the elevation goes down to about zero at that side pointing downwards.
- retor duct bore 20 is not to increase beyond that existing at the idling r.p.m. adjustment for the swivel angle.
- the inner surface form of rim 12 on throttle flap 10 has a particularfunction in this swivel angle range. It
- throttle flap 10 is to change the ram pressure area on the upper surface of throttle flap 10 both in size and form.
- the inner rim area can get a gradual transition to the plate thickness of throttle flap 10.It is preferable to provide a steep gradient on rim 12 at the inner side, at best with an angle of 50 60. Thereby a local flow deflection occurs in the area of this abruptly sloping-down back of rim 12, which, due to its thrust effect, over the downward-pointing side of throttle flap 10 permits flowing off of an increased portion of the impact flow via the crescent-formed gap. The effect of this increased portion of flow. is shown on FIG. 21 diagram.
- This swivel angle range of flap 10 is within the motor vehicle speed range for which an exhaust gas decontamination is required.
- the aerodynamic design of throttle flap 10 contributes a portion of a reduction of the air-fuel mixture in the sense of a A variation.
- the rims 11 and 12 possess fine, jet-like bores 15. Their effect in the throttle flap swivel angle range described is such that they contribute to reducing the ram pressure field over the throttle flap, because there is a low pressure field over the outside of the rim back, due to the jet effect. This suction effect also brings about a removal of a portion of the congested flow on the upward-pointing half of throttle flap 10.
- the rims 11 and 12 cause a different effect in the load range up to full load of the engine.
- the first flow path around the outside of the throttle flap breaks off at the sharp corners of the rim backs to define a vortex generator.
- the spherical form of the 2 rim backs which become efiective in this swivel angle range, have the advantage over a disc-shaped throttle-flap of the state-of-the-art, that a ram point can form, which determines the flowing off.
- the rims 11 and 12 have fine jet-like bores 15. These fine bores define a second streamlined path for the air and produce thin flow lines of high-speed air which remove quickly the vortex trains which leave the sharp edges 17 of the rims 11 and 12.
- throttle flap 10 In the area of the bypass bores 20A the upper rim 1 l of throttle flap 10 will be provided with a protuberance-like, locally limited elevation 14, having, at a swivel angle 0, the fit of throttle flap 10 to the carburetor duct. Rapid swivelling back of throttle flap 10 causes just as rapid build-up of a hydraulic resistance for the bypass jets, which considerably reduces the fuel flow.
- a snifile valve 1 10 can be provided at the rim-free side of throttle flap 10, over which a ram pressure is always effective in the medium swivel ranges of throttle flap 10.
- the sniffle valve opens and thus further contributes to increased flowing-off of the flow in the throttle flaparea.
- Curve 3 Throttle flap provided with the invention characteristics, without additional air over segment lever 40.
- Curve 4 Throttle flap provided with the invention characteristics with additional air over segment lever 40.
- an air regulating plate 30 will be arranged under the carburetor, Its inner dia. D is that of the carburetor duct. Moreover; air regulating plate 30 is the carrier of a ram jet consisting of parts 100 and 104 (FIG. 2, 8-11).
- the upper part 100 of the ram jet has a preferably conical inner wall 101, connected with a ring bearing.
- This arrangement can, depending on the case, also be one integral component.
- the ring bearing 102 possesses the cutouts 103, letting through the wall duct stream.
- the lower part 104 also has a preferably conical inner wall 105, whereby the conicalness of the cone shell can either be the same as the upper part 100, or of tapered form towards the outlet.
- This cone shell 105 is connected with an intermediate cone shell 106 the tapered form of which is in the same direction, with a small space remaining in between.
- This intermediate shell 106 has a ring bearing 107.
- a ram jet is formed with parts 100 and 104, representing a basic measure for carburetors by dividing the air-fuel mixture flow from the throttle flap 10 area in an inner and in a wall flow.
- the fuel film on the wall of the carburetor duct and on the following suction tube wall has a disturbing effect on the mixture preparation.
- This fuel film can deposit as condensate on the wall, or can form particularly in the delayed thrust interval. It mainly consists of the reluctantly evaporating portions of the total fuel. Part of the fuel film evaporates due to the influence of the low pressure field in the throttle flap 10 area, so that the wall stream is richer than the internal stream in the mixture flow.
- Bores 108 are arranged in the cone shells 105 and 106 of the jet lower part 104, which both by their size and position to the bottom of the collecting pocket will be aligned such that this accumulating liquid fuel portion will be subjected to post-atomization. This effects a time shift in the preparation of the fuel film during the operating stage. In order to fulfill the requirements of an exhaust gas decontamination law this time shift of the preparation of the liquid reluctantly evaporating portions of the total fuel can be used for unloading of the operating stage, which is of great significance in the test.
- the second measure concerns introduction of the additional air through a lateral bore 39 in the air regulating plate 30 which preferably will be formed jet-like.
- This bore 39 enters tangentially inner bore 32 of air regulating plate 30.
- the additional air is only blown into the gap between the jet upper part 100 and lower part 104.
- This additional air primarily exercises an effect on the wall channel stream which enters via cutout 103 of ring bearing 102 of the jet upper part 100.
- FIGS. 14 to 16 show a fresh air transmitter 70. It consists of a housing 71 with a bearing or support bracket 72 for the purpose of attachment to the carburetor 21. Inside housing 71 there runs a preferably selfsupporting roll guide 73, which is presented in FIG. 16 in enlarged scale. This roll guide 73 has a lug 74, by which it is supported in housing 71 and on which a lever 75 will be attached. A preferably adjustable linkage 77 is connected to this lever 75, being the connection to lever 46. Lever 46 is connected with the throttle flap shaft 23. This so-arranged operational linkage between fresh air transmitter and carburetor guarantees a synchronous adjustment of roll guide 73 with throttle flap shaft 23.
- a fresh air transmitter tube 78 is screwed into housing 71, which is closed at the air entry by a thin-mesh filter 79 and secured by the perforated cover 82.
- a tube 83 is attached in housing 71, through which the additional air to the air regulating plate 30 will be removed via the lateral bore 39.
- the distance between fresh air transmitter tube 78 and drain tube 83 can be adjusted by the thread 85 or the fresh air transmitter tube 78 to housing 71.
- Roll guide 73 possesses two cutouts on the cylinder surface.
- the fresh air transmitter 70 is connected to the air regulating plate 30 e.g. by a hose 84.
- a further fresh air transmitter is shown in FIGS. 17 to 19.
- the air regulating plate 30 is closed at the end of bore 39 and has a bore 38 which is offset by 90.
- a thinmeshed filter 51 is inserted in this bore 38.
- a segment lever 40 is connected to the control linkage of carburetor 21 at 41 thus bringing about a synchronized motion of segment lever 40 with the throttle flap shaft 23 during passing over the lateral bore 38 located in the air regulating plate 30.
- Segment lever 40 can possess a guide for the additional air in the form of a segment lever cutout, a better solution, however, is an envelope curve 43, determining the amount of additional air for the individual operating stages of an exhaust gas decontamination test.
- the envelope curve 43 on segment lever 40, shown in FIG. 19 is adapted to the USA- California test.
- a special stop 44 can be arranged, which is of no detrimental effect in the thrust operating stages during passing over envelope curve 43 above lateral bore 38.
- the design of the fresh-air-transmitter to be adopted depends on the carburetor construction and on the space available in the engine carburetor area.
- the exhaust manifold of the motor vehicle can be followed by a catalytic-action afterburner, for the purpose of achieving in particular a reduction of the nitrogen oxide portions NO, present in the exhaust gas of an i.c. engine. If the heterogeneous catalysis is applied for the nitrogen oxide portion NO, reduction, the reduction takes place according to the equation 2 C 2 NO a 2 C0; N but only then, if the free oxygen 0, in the exhaust gas stream is low e.g. 0.5 to 1.5 vol.%.
- a fresh air transmitter as a roll guide or segment lever with envelope curve or guide cutout enable the rating of the additional fresh air amount with such a precision that the reduction requirements for a post-catalytic reduction process of the nitrogen portion NO, can be fulfilled.
- Apparatus for decontaminating the exhaust gases produced by an internal combustion engine by atomizing the fuel and varying the air-fuel ratio figure A comprising:
- fresh air supply means for supplying additional air downstream of said throttle flap means.
