Abstract
An electric control device for regulating the r.p.m. of a piston internal combustion engine is disclosed. The device has an integral r.p.m. regulator with an output connected to a final control element regulator electrically connected to an electromagnet that actuates an adjusting element of the engine. A nominal value signal and a signal from a tachometer are fed to the r.p.m. regulator. A current regulator is electrically connected between the r.p.m. regulator and the final control element regulator. The current regulator is acted upon by both a signal from the electromagnet and the r.p.m. regulating means by a summing element to control the final control regulator which acts on the electromagnet.
Claims1
In an electric control device regulating the r.p.m. of a piston internal combustion engine, having integral r.p.m. regulating means for metering of the fuel mixture, said regulating means having an output electrically connected to a final control element regulator, said final control element regulator electrically connected to an electromagnet that actuates an adjusting element connected to the internal combustion engine, said internal combustion engine provided with a tachometer whose signal is fed, together with a nominal-value signal, to the r.p.m. regulating means, the improvement comprising a current regulator electrically connected between the r.p.m. regulating means and the final control element regulator, summation means delivering to the current regulator a signal representing the magnitude of the current flowing through the electromagnet, said summation means also delivering the output signal of the r.p.m. regulating means to the current regulator whereby the current regulator is acted upon by both the signal from the electromagnet and the r.p.m. regulating means to control the final control regulator which acts on the electromagnet.
