The present invention is to prevent mixing of fresh air and an air-fuel mixture when a throttle valve is fully opened and increase a delivery ratio. A main nozzle (30) is surrounded by a tunnel-like air flow guiding member (52). The air flow guiding member (52) is opened at its front and back sides. A whole amount of fuel discharged via a main nozzle (30) is sent to a downstream side by an air flow created by the air flow guiding member (52). When a throttle valve (22) and a choke valve (24) are both in a fully-opened state, fresh air flows into an air-fuel mixture passage (12) through a gap between these valves (22, 24).

A suction tube of a stratified scavenging engine that can improve the flexibility in designing the shapes and layouts of an air-fuel mixture passage and an air passage; allow for continuous and smooth changes in the shapes of the cross sections of the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage from the inlet side toward the outlet side; reduce the number of components; and facilitate attachment and assembly; and that is also advantageous in terms of cost is provided. The suction tube includes an air-fuel mixture passage and an air passage, inlet and outlet sides of the passages being connected to a carburetor and a cylinder, respectively; a cylindrical exterior member that mainly forms an outer perimeter portion of each of the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage; and an interior member for dividing the inside of the cylindrical exterior member into the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage. With the use of elastic deformation of the interior member or the cylindrical exterior member, the interior member is attached to and integrally formed with the inside of the cylindrical exterior member.

An engine-powered work tool includes an engine having a crank shaft, an ignition system, an output controller having a throttle valve shaft for controlling output of the engine, a wind governor connected to the throttle valve shaft, a rotation speed detector and an ignition control unit. The wind governor includes a governor plate movable upon receipt of cooling air generated by a cooling fan to control an angular rotation of the throttle valve shaft. The rotation speed detector detects a rotation speed of the crank shaft. The ignition control unit controls the ignition system based on the rotation speed of the crank shaft detected by the rotation speed detector to reduce the output of the engine when the rotation speed detector determines that the governor plate exceeds a predetermined position.

To allow an intake negative pressure to directly act on a fuel outlet formed on a nozzle tube, and to guide a fuel discharged from the fuel outlet in the nozzle tube to the fuel-air mixture passage. A rotary carburetor (200) has a guide plate member (42) downstream of a fuel outlet (30) located in a through-hole (14). The guide plate member (42) has both side edges (42b) away from an inner wall surface (14a) of the through-hole (14). The through-hole (14) is divided by the guide plate member (42) into a first passage portion (44) and a second passage portion (46). The first passage portion (44) communicates through a piston groove with a scavenging passage of a cylinder. The fuel discharged from the fuel outlet (30) is guided by the guide plate member (42) to the second passage portion (46) and is supplied through the second passage portion (46) to a fuel-air mixture passage (24) of an engine intake system.

The intake structure for an internal combustion engine includes: a collision surface configured to face an inlet of a carburetor; a deflecting surface configured to deflect a blowback flow, which is to diffuse after colliding against the collision surface, in one direction along the collision surface; a receiving surface configured to receive the blowback flow deflected by the deflecting surface; and a fuel-accumulating surface formed below the collision surface. A first clearance between an air-guiding direction distal end of the deflecting surface and the receiving surface is brought into communication to a downstream side of a filter of an air cleaner in a fresh-air intake direction so as to act as a main intake passage for fresh air.

A four-piece billet aluminum device used to deliver compressed air into an internal combustion engine through a carburetor. An inlet delivers forced air from a compressor to the outlet fastened and sealed to the top of the carburetor to give equal distribution to the internal combustion engine. The device can also be used for draw through, naturally aspirated and nitrous assisted internal combustion engines that are prioritizing fresh air to the carburetor. The multipurpose four-piece billet air delivery system has four ports for monitoring air speed, intake air temperature, vacuum/manifold atmospheric pressures, and a port for force induction setups to vacuum/boost reference a fuel pressure regulator to meet fuel demands. There is an additional opening that requires an atmospheric reverse pressure disc to protect an internal combustion engine that is turbocharged, supercharged or nitrous equipped from further damage if it were to have a major backfire or reversed pressure.

An apparatus and methods are provided for an air cleaner to be mounted onto an air inlet of an internal combustion engine. The air cleaner comprises an air filter that includes a filter medium disposed between a curved base and a cover. The curved base provides an interface between the air filter and the air inlet, and comprises a shape that provides clearance between the curved base and an electric choke installed onto a carburetor comprising the air inlet. The cover secures the air filter and the curved base to the air inlet such that an airstream is drawn through the filter medium and is conducted into the air inlet. A raised portion of the cover is configured to cooperate with the curved base to ensure a desired volume of the airstream is available to the air inlet at substantially all engine speeds.
