Abstract
The invention relates to an induction regulator (201) for an internal combustion engine which comprises one or more features selected from: at least one perforated element (203) for allowing the passage of fuel/air mixture therethrough, at least one open-topped reservoir (205) for retaining excess unvapourised fuel and means (204) for mounting the regulator in the inlet manifold of an engine, the open-topped reservoir (205) comprising a series of perforations (207) therein; at least one perforated element for allowing the passage of fuel/air mixture therethrough, means for mounting the perforated element in the inlet manifold of an engine and the means (510) for heating the perforated element; and a propeller and means for mounting the propeller (703, 803, 903) in the inlet manifold of an engine.
Claims8
An induction regulator for an internal combustion engine comprising at least one perforated element for allowing the passage of fuel/air mixture therethrough, the perforated element being mounted at a tilt inside the inlet manifold and sized to leave a peripheral gap between the perforated plate and the inlet manifold, a propeller connected to a power supply for driving the propeller, means for mounting the at least one perforated element and the propeller beneath the perforated element in the inlet manifold of an engine, and means for heating the propeller.
