    Abstract: A combustible air-liquid fuel mixture having a substantially constant air-to-fuel ratio is produced for delivery to the intake manifold of an engine. Air is passed through a fluid flow device having a variable area throat zone to increase the velocity of the air to sonic, and the area of the throat zone is varied in correlation with operating demands imposed upon the engine for which the mixture is produced. Liquid fuel is metered from a supply into the air stream at or before the throat zone in direct proportion to the cross-sectional area of the throat zone. The pressure of the high velocity air stream is sensed at a point where it bears a predictable relationship to atmospheric pressure, and the rate of fuel delivered into the air stream is adjusted in response to changes in the air pressure sensed so that the air-to-fuel ratio of the mixture is maintained substantially constant. Due to the particular design of the fluid flow device, air at sonic velocity passes through the throat zone over substantially the entire operating range of the engine down to low manifold vacuum levels. During the relatively brief subsonic mode of operation when the manifold vacuum levels are quite low, the fluid flow device functions as a metering venturi to introduce the liquid fuel into the varying velocity air stream.

    Abstract: A liquid metering device designed primarily for metering fuel into an internal combustion engine of the reciprocating type, is installed within the intake pipe of the intake manifold. The pump device comprises an elongated housing having a port at one end, a rod-like member is arranged in a housing coaxially therewith, with one end of the member secured to the closed end of the housing. The other end of the member carries an enlarged head which is arranged to snugly but slidably fit within the port. The member and housing are made of magnetostrictive materials of different polarity and the entire housing is surrounded by an electromagnetic coil which is arranged to connect to a current pulse generator. Liquid is introduced into the housing and current pulses from the generator are applied to the coil. The magnetostrictive characteristics of the housing and piston cause the housing to elongate relative to the member with each pulse, so that a shearing action takes place between the head and wall of the port which forces the liquid out of the device in the form of uniform small diameter liquid particles, which are carried along by the air into the intake manifold and into the engine cylinders. A similar device is used to meter water into the intake manifold to increase the efficiency of the engine by increasing the anti-knock properties of the fuel and, in turn, the pollutants exhausted from the engine are minimized.
