Claims
- 1. An intake system for an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- a carburetor including wall means defining a primary venturi, a housing defining a secondary venturi concentrically disposed within said primary venturi and including a bridge member extending into contact with an inner wall of a throat portion of said wall means, a fuel delivery conduit disposed through said bridge member and so constructed and arranged as to span said secondary venturi and to have a leading end thereof sealingly received in the housing of said secondary venturi opposite said bridge member, said fuel delivery conduit being inclined with respect to the axis of said secondary venturi so that the leading end portion thereof extends upstream, said fuel delivery conduit being further formed with an opening through which fuel is dischargable; and
- a single needle member fixedly attached to the housing of said secondary venturi so as to project from a portion of the most downstream peripheral edge of the internal surface of said housing in a downstream direction with respect to the flow of the air passing through said secondary venturi, said portion being attached to said most downstream peripheral edge in substantial axial alignment with a portion of said housing from which the spanning fuel delivery conduit projects into said secondary venturi.
- 2. An intake system as claimed in claim 1, in which said needle member extends in a direction substantially parallel to the axis of said secondary venturi.
- 3. An intake system as claimed in claim 2, in which the length of said needle member is more than 5 mm.
- 4. An intake system as claimed in claim 3, in which the length of said needle member is more than 8 mm.
- 5. An intake system as claimed in claim 3, in which the most downstream peripheral edge of said housing of said secondary venturi is flush with that of said bridge member.
- 6. An intake system as claimed in claim 3, in which said needle member has a cylindrical base portion with a diameter ranging from about 0.5 mm to about 1.5 mm.
- 7. An intake system as claimed in claim 3, in which said needle member has a cylindrical base portion with a diameter at least 0.8 mm and not more than 1.1 mm in circumference.
- 8. An intake system of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- a carburetor including a primary venturi, a secondary venturi concentrically disposed within said primary venturi by means of a bridge member extending from an inner wall of a throat portion of said carburetor, a fuel delivery conduit for delivering fuel to said secondary venturi disposed through said bridge member and so constructed and arranged as to span, said secondary venturi and to have a leading end thereof sealingly received in said secondary venturi opposite said bridge member and a throttle valve operatively disposed in a conduit portion of the carburetor downstream of said primary and secondary venturis;
- said secondary venturi being formed with a throat defining the narrowest passage thereof to which said fuel delivery conduit opens, an upper end portion of said secondary venturi located upstream of said throat, and a lower end portion located downstream of said throat; and
- a needle member having an upper end connected to said lower end portion of said secondary venturi at a position just under said fuel delivery conduit, and a sharply pointed lower end extending in the downstream direction with respect to said venturis.
