The combustion-gas flow entering the engine is a confluence of the combustion-gas from the passage 4 and the additional combustion-gas from passage 9, The combustion-gas from combustion-passage 4 is supplied to the engine at any operation condition, the combustion-gas flow depends on the opening of the main jet 5. The additional combustion-gas from the additional combustion-gas passage 9 depends on the additional combustion-gas adjusting aperture and the gas automatically adjusting valve 10, it can be selected for apertures of different shape and variable combination of two apertures to meet the different operation requirement, thus the turning of the gas automatically adjusting valve 10 can adjust the additional combustion-gas flow automatically, the main working principle is explained as follows:

• • 1. When the engine is in idle condition, the opening of the throttling valve is in the minimum, the gas automatically adjusting valve is completely closed, just enough cutting off the additional combustion-gas passage and then no gas flows out from the additional combustion-gas passage.
  • 2. When the engine is under the lower load, the opening of the throttling valve is small, the gas automatically adjusting partially is partially opened turning on the additional combustion-gas passage, there are only few gas flows out due to the small opening of the additional combustion-gas passage, and along with the load increases, the more widely opening of the throttling valve, and the gas automatically adjusting valve is also widely opened and turning on the additional combustion-gas passage accordingly and the gas flow from the additional combustion-gas passage increase, too.
  • 3. When engine is under the full load, the throttling valve is in maximum opened position, the gas automatically adjusting valve is opened completely and turning on the additional combustion-gas passage most widely, the gas flow from the additional combustion-gas passage is at its maximum, because of the completely opening of the additional combustion-gas passage. The maximum combustion-gas flow depends on the additional combustion-gas adjusting aperture.
