Abstract
Abstract A pump body which comprises three chambers, a first chamber communicating with the outer atmosphere and the air intake or the exhaust pipe, a second chamber communicating with the precompression casing of the engine, said second chamber being separated from the first chamber by a movable partition integral with a support held by a spring with a piston resting on the support and sliding axially in a channel when the movable partition displaces the support, and a third chamber having an opening communicating with the fuel intake line and an opening connected by a tube to a fuel injector opening into the drive cylinder in a substantially radial direction so as to spray the fuel over the flushing or sweeping currents. The third chamber is located at the end of said channel so that when the movable partition displaces the support one end of the piston is moved, so as to very the pressure prevailing in the third chamber in order to take in a quantity of fuel when the movable partition compresses the spring and force a quantity of fuel toward the injector when the spring is released.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
Fuel injection device for a two-stroke engine with precompression in its casing, characterised by a pump body comprising a first chamber vented to outer atmosphere, the first chamber also communicating with an air intake pipe, a second chamber having a communication line communicating with a precompression casing of the engine, said second chamber being separated from the first chamber by a movable partition which is integral with a support held by a spring; a piston resting on the support and sliding axially in a channel when the movable partition displaces the support; and a third chamber having an opening communicating with a fuel inlet opening into an engine cylinder in a substantially radial direction so as to spray the fuel over the sweeping current, the third chamber being located at an end of said channel so that when the movable partition displaces the support one end of the piston is displaced, thereby varying the pressure prevailing in the third chamber, so as to take in a quantity of fuel when the movable partition compresses the spring and to force a quantity of fuel towards the injector when the spring is released.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
191 words
Fuel injection device for a two-stroke engine with precompression in its casing, characterised by a pump body comprising a first chamber vented to outer atmosphere, the first chamber also communicating with an air intake pipe, a second chamber having a communication line communicating with a precompression casing of the engine, said second chamber being separated from the first chamber by a movable partition which is integral with a support held by a spring; a piston resting on the support and sliding axially in a channel when the movable partition displaces the support; and a third chamber having an opening communicating with a fuel inlet opening into an engine cylinder in a substantially radial direction so as to spray the fuel over the sweeping current, the third chamber being located at an end of said channel so that when the movable partition displaces the support one end of the piston is displaced, thereby varying the pressure prevailing in the third chamber, so as to take in a quantity of fuel when the movable partition compresses the spring and to force a quantity of fuel towards the injector when the spring is released.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
29 words
Fuel injection device as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the first chamber (11) communicates with the air intake pipe (5) via a nozzle (18) with variable opening.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
96 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, further including means regulating the pressure in the second chamber from the pressure in the casing (3) as a function of an accelerator control and thus permitting direct control of the quantity of fuel injected as a function of the accelerator control said means being located in the channel a duct positioned between the second chamber and the casing, said duct being fitted with a valve which enables air to pass from the second chamber to the casing but Prevents air from passing from the casing to the second chamber.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, further including means controlled by an accelerator knob and enabling the stress on the spring to be regulated.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first chamber communicates exclusively with an engine exhaust pipe, and a cheek being provided to protect the movable partition from the heat of exhaust gases.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, comprising means (42) for regulating the stress of the biasing spring (15).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
53 words
Device as claimed in claim 1 or 6, further comprising a manually displaceable member (40, 41, 43) which is arranged so that, when it is actuated, its end displaces the support (22) on which the piston (20) abuts so that the displacement of the piston (20) causes emptying of the fuel chamber (13).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
29 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the injector opens into the cylinder at a spacing from a cylinder bore so as to form a cavity in said bore.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
27 words
Device as claimed in claim 1 or 8, wherein the injector (9) passes through the engine cylinder in a sleeve (53, 54) made of heat insulating material.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
66 words
Device as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the pump body (10) has a generally cylindrical projection (45) forming a housing for the injector (9) and a compression valve (27) arranged coaxially in alignment with the longitudinal axis of the injection piston (20), said projection (45) comprising means (46, 47) for fixing the injection device (10) to the engine cylinder in a substantially radial direction.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
113 words
Device as claimed in claim 1 or 10, characterised in that communication line between the precompression and the chamber of the injection device also communicates with a first compartment separated from a second compartment by a flexible, the second compartment communicating with the fuel inlet line of a fuel tank via an intake valve which opens when the flexible membrane is put under tension by a vacuum prevailing in the first compartment and the second compartment also communicating with the fuel tube towards the fuel chamber of the injection device by a compression valve which opens when the flexible membrane is detached under the effect of the pressure prevailing in the first compartment.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
74 words
Device as claimed in claim 11, characterised in that the first compartment comprises a cavity formed in a lower surface of the injection pump body, the second compartment comprises a cavity formed in a second unit, the second unit being screwed on below the injection pump body with a flexible membrane interposed in order to separate the cavities forming the first and second compartments, said flexible membrane cooperating with the intake and compression valves.
