Abstract
An electronic fuel supply device for an automotive engine has a vortex flow sensor for sensing the flow of suction air into the engine, an electromagnetic valve which driven for a predetermined time in synchronism with the frequency output from the vortex flow sensor so as to permit the passage of fuel therethrough, and a control valve for limiting the flow of fuel through the electro-magnetic valve. The fuel is metered by the electro-magnetic valve and the control valve, and the fuel may thus be supplied in metered amounts to the fuel injection valves in the respective cylinders for injection into the engine.
Claims2
A fuel supply device for a multicylinder engine having a plurality of fuel injection valves, said device comprising a vortex flow sensor for producing a frequency output referenced to a vortex speed which is representative of the flow of engine suction air and a fuel metering device including electro-magnetic valves which are driven for a predetermined time in synchronism with the frequency output from said vortex flow sensor so as to permit the passage of fuel therethrough, and a control valve for limiting the flow of fuel through said electro-magnetic valves, the fuel being supplied to said plurality of fuel injection valves in an amount metered by said fuel metering device and thereby injected into said engine;
- wherein each of said plurality of fuel injection valves is respectively provided for each cylinder.
