Abstract
Energy provided by two circuits each of which has inductive and capacitive components which provide initial conditions for the ignition firing cycle, makes possible high modulated power components of the system for delivery to a high voltage distributor. Such conventional distributor sequences the igniter firing.
Claims8
A multiple double energy modulation ignition system, comprising the combination of:
- an ignition transformer having a primary winding and a secondary winding;
- a first circuit composed of the primary winding and a first capacitor in series therewith;
- a second circuit composed of a second capacitor and an inductor in series therewith, said first and second capacitors having a common electrical junction;
- and
- means electrically connected to the common junction for providing intermittent electrical connection between said junction and an electrical return of the system.
