A pre-combustion-chamber type gas engine includes: a pre-combustion chamber Sr disposed on a cylinder head portion 10; a spark plug 20 disposed on an upper part of the pre-combustion chamber Sr; a pre-combustion-chamber gas supply mechanism configured to supply ignition fuel gas “g” to the pre-combustion chamber Sr via gas supply channels for the pre-combustion chamber 22a and 22b with an opening on an upper part of the pre-combustion chamber Sr; and a check valve 24 disposed in the gas supply channel 22b for the pre-combustion chamber. The opening of the gas supply channel 22a for the pre-combustion chamber is disposed on a lower surface of a cover member 16 forming the pre-combustion chamber Sr or on an upper section of a side wall of a pre-combustion-chamber member 14, the opening facing in a tangent direction of a side-wall inner peripheral surface 14a of the pre-combustion-chamber member 14. The ignition fuel gas “g” supplied to the pre-combustion chamber Sr forms a swirl flow s1 which swirls about a longitudinal axis x of the pre-combustion chamber Sr inside the pre-combustion chamber Sr.

An attachment for purging the inside of the carburetors which is comprised by a tubular device having a carburetor connecting member and quick connect receiver extension. The attachment is connected through the bottom of the carburetor or through the feed fuel line of the carburetor. The attachment is attachable to a quick disconnect fitting which can be connected to a conventional car tire air nozzle or pressurized can with the same fitting as the car tire nozzle. The attachment allows all the jets and passages located on the inside of carburetor to be purged at the same time with multiple short blasts of compressed air or pressurized can solvent but without the carburetor being removed from the engine or taken a part. The same principles can easily be applied to all type carburetors for either a two or four-stroke engine.

An internal combustion engine with at least one combustion chamber, at least one fuel delivery line for the delivery of fuel to at least one combustion chamber, and at least one differential pressure control valve for controlling the pressure in the at least one fuel delivery line. The at least one differential pressure control valve is configured to perform a valve opening or valve closing movement based on a pressure difference between the at least one fuel delivery line and a reference volume having a reference pressure. The internal combustion engine further includes at least one pressure relief valve, separate from the at least one differential pressure control valve, and configured to open to cause a pressure relief in the reference volume and a decrease in the reference pressure if a drop occurs in the power to be performed by the internal combustion engine.

A supplemental fuel system includes a supplemental fuel tank, an electronic valve, a voltage sensor, and a controller. The supplemental fuel tank is configured to store a supplemental fuel configured to supplement a primary fuel used by an engine. The electronic valve is configured to be positioned between the supplemental fuel tank and an air supply system for the engine. The voltage sensor is configured to acquire voltage data from a power supply indicative of a voltage of the power supply. The power supply is configured to receive power from an alternator driven by the engine. The controller is configured to control the electronic valve such that the electronic valve is (i) closed in response to the voltage being less than a voltage threshold and (ii) open or openable in response to the voltage being greater than the voltage threshold.

A pilot actuated valve assembly includes a valve body having an inlet and an outlet, and includes a main valve, a pilot valve, and a pilot cavity which is at a pilot cavity pressure. A tube houses parts of the pilot valve, and a sleeve engages a portion of the tube, with both being secured to the body by a valve bonnet. The main and pilot valves are coaxial. A solenoid actuator or other suitable actuator is operatively coupled to a shaft of the pilot valve and shifts the pilot valve between the positions. Consequently, the main valve shifts between the closed and open positions in response to shifting of the pilot valve between the closed and open positions.

A fuel storage and delivery system for a refrigerated cargo vehicle. The system includes a first fuel tank for storing natural gas and a second fuel tank for storing natural gas, at least the first fuel tank is for storing the natural gas as liquefied natural gas (LNG); a vehicle fuel supply line fluidly connected to the first fuel tank for supplying fuel from the first fuel tank to a vehicle engine; and a refrigeration unit fuel supply line fluidly connected to the second fuel tank for supplying fuel from the second fuel tank to a transport refrigeration unit engine.

A gas fuel vehicle includes gas fuel engine, a gas fuel supply circuit comprising at least one tank assembly, the tank assembly including a gas fuel tank and a tank valve, an electronic central unit configured to control operation of the gas fuel vehicle, The tank assembly is provided with specific identification data, and the electronic central unit is configured to process the identification data of the tank assembly and to enable an actuation of the tank valve between closed and open states only if the identification data are recognized.

A supplemental fuel system includes a supplemental fuel tank, a first pressure regulator, a second pressure regulator, and a nozzle. The supplemental fuel tank is configured to store a supplemental fuel at a first pressure. The first pressure regulator is configured to reduce the first pressure of the supplemental fuel received from the supplemental fuel tank to a second pressure. The second pressure regulator is configured to reduce the second pressure of the supplemental fuel received from the first pressure regulator to a third pressure. The nozzle is configured to be positioned (i) downstream of the second pressure regulator and (ii) within a conduit of an air supply system for the compression-ignition engine. The nozzle is configured to receive a flow of the supplemental fuel and provide the supplemental fuel to air flowing though the conduit.
