Abstract
Bypass tubes connected to intake ports of each throttle body are connected to joint pipes of a starting control valve assembly. The starting control valve assembly includes valve bodies having communication paths formed therein. The communication paths communicate with an air cleaner. First and second flow paths connect the communication paths and the joint pipes. Tuning screws are provided for adjusting the opening amount of each of the first flow paths and a shaft valve is rotatably mounted in through holes which are orthogonal to the second flow paths for collectively adjusting the opening amount of the second flow paths. Furthermore, a plurality of idle connection holes are provided in the shaft valve which all face in the same direction.
Claims18
In a multiple throttle having multiple throttle bodies with intake ports for introducing a mixture to each combustion chamber of a multiple cylinder engine, a starting control valve assembly for supplying air from an air cleaner to said intake ports via a bypass channel, comprising:
- a plurality of valve bodies;
- a plurality of supply paths, each having a first end connected to one of said plurality of valve bodies, and a second end adapted to be connected to one of the intake ports of the throttle bodies;
- a connection path formed in each of said plurality of valve bodies, and adapted to be in communication with the air cleaner;
- a first flow path and a second flow path formed in each of said plurality of valve bodies for connecting said connection path and said supply path of each of said plurality of valve bodies;
- an adjustment screw provided in each said first flow path for adjusting an opening amount of each said first flow path;
- and
- a shaft valve rotatably mounted in through holes crossing adjacent of said second flow paths;
- and
- a plurality of idle connection holes formed in said shaft valve, one of said plurality of idle connection holes being in communication with one said second flow path, each of said idle connection holes extending in a same direction, and an opening amount of each said second flow path is adjusted in unison by rotating said shaft valve.
A starting control valve assembly for supplying air from an air cleaner to an intake port of a multiple throttle, comprising:
- a valve body;
- a supply path having a first end connected to said valve body and a second end adapted to be connected to the intake port of the multiple throttle body;
- a connection path formed in said valve body, and adapted to be in communication with the air cleaner;
- a first flow path and a second flow path formed in said valve body, each of said first and second flow paths connecting said connection path to said supply path;
- an adjustment screw rotatably mounted in said valve body and in communication with said first flow path for adjusting an opening amount of said first flow path;
- and
- a shaft valve rotatably mounted in a through hole crossing said second flow path;
- an idle connection hole formed through said shaft valve, said idle connection hole being in communication with said second flow path and extending in a same direction, and an opening amount of said second flow path is adjusted by rotating said shaft valve.
