ABSTRACT:
A carbureting device for internal combustion engines providing pre-volatilized light gasoline vapor and a means for conserving unvaporized gasoline. An electronic pulsing circuit powers and controls the operation of an array of electric fuel pumps connected to the nozzles of a communicating array of volatilization chambers. Operating electric fuel pumps, through the connected nozzles, deliver spurts of liquefied gasoline spray mist onto ribbed inner surfaces of volatilization chambers. Liquefied mist phase of gasoline and evaporation ribs of volatilization chambers accelerate evaporation of liquefied gasoline spray mist, producing light gasoline vapor in volatilization chambers. Unvaporized gasoline drains from volatilization chambers to a fuel storage chamber and is recycled for change of phase to light gasoline vapor. Pressure equalization valves channel a vacuum induced primary intake air stream through the hollow cone of the inner air fuel mixing chamber, connected to apertures of the volatilization chambers. The passing intake air stream, enroute to the engine combustion chambers, induces light gasoline vapor from within the volatilization chambers through the chamber apertures. The induced fuel, prevolatilized to light gasoline vapor, mixes more efficiently with the intake air flow during the available time span enroute to the combustion chambers, providing a more homogenous air/fuel mixture to the chambers.
Providing prevolatilized light gasoline vapor to mix more homogenously with the inducting intake air stream and conserving the unvaporized gasoline should, by this invention, greatly minimize unvaporized gasoline being introduced to the intake air stream, substantially providing only light gasoline vapor to the engine for more thorough combustion and greatly improving the gasoline efficiency and gasoline mileage of the engine from the effect of significantly reducing unburned hydrocarbon pollution, a waste attributed to unvaporized gasoline.
