摘要 In a primary air supply for an internal combustion engine, when an ignition switch is shut off, the primary air supply means supplies optimum primary air to the inlet system in order to prevent afterburning which normally occurs when shutting off said ignition switch after continuous operation of the engine.
权利要求
1. A primary air supply system for an internal combusion engine provided with an inlet passage downstream of a throttle valve, said system comprising: a primary air passage connecting an air source and the inlet passage, valve means for opening and closing said primary air passage, said valve means comprising a valve member for opening and closing said primary air passage, a spring urging said valve member to close off said primary air passage, a diaphragm device controlling said valve member, a solenoid valve means opening and closing a pipe in response to switching of an engine control switch with the solenoid valve means opening said pipe when the engine switch is cut off, said diaphragm device having a first diaphragm chamber and a second diaphragm chamber divided by a diaphragm, said first diaphragm chamber being connected to the inlet passage, said second diaphragm chamber being connected to said pipe, said pipe being connected to said second diaphragm chamber at one end and connected to the air source at the other end, whereby, when the engine is decelerating, said diaphragm device opens said primary air passage against said spring as result of high inlet vacuum, and when the engine switch is cut off, the solenoid valve means opens said pipe to introduce air into the second diaphragm chamber so that said diaphragm device opens said primary air passage by a difference of pressure between said chambers.
2. The primary air supply system as claimed in claim 1, further comprising: a balance hole within the diaphragm so that pressure differences between both diaphragm chambers gradually balance.
3. A primary air supply system for an internal combustion engine provided with an inlet passage downstream of a throttle valve comprising: a. a primary air passage connected between an air source and the inlet passage, b. first detecting means for detecting the engine decelerating condition, c. second detecting means for detecting the cut-off of an ignition switch, d. normally closed valve means disposed on said primary air passage and operatively connected with said first and second detecting means for opening said passage in response to cutting off the ignition switch and deceleration of the engine.
4. A primary air supply system as claimed in claim 3, wherein said first detecting means detects the engine decelerating condition in response to a vacuum signal emanating from the inlet passage.
5. A primary air supply system as claimed in claim 4, wherein said valve means comprises a valve device for opening and closing said primary air passage, and a diaphragm device connected to said valve device for controlling the operation of said valve device and operatively connected to said inlet passage.
6. A primary air supply system as claimed in claim 5, wherein: said diaphragm device has a first diaphragm chamber and a second diaphragm chamber divided by a diaphragm, said first diaphram chamber is connected to the inlet passage, said second diaphragm chamber is operatively connected To the atmosphere through a pipe having a solenoid valve for controlling the connection between said second diaphragm chamber and the atmosphere, said ignition siwtch is connected to said solenoid valve for controlling the operation of said solenoid valve, whereby when the engine is decelerated, said diaphragm device operates said valve device to open said primary air passage owning to the introduction of high inlet vacuum into said first diaphragm chamber, and when said ignition switch is cut off, said solenoid valve operates to open said pipe for introducing air into said second diaphragm chamber so that said diaphragm device operates said valve device to open said primary air passage by a difference of pressure between said first and second diaphragm chambers.
