The throttle valve 38 is mounted on the shoulder 39 on the earbureting chamber member 31. This throttle. valve 38 coacts with an annular slicailderdike seat 40 within the body member :2. By thus arranging the parts. the throttle valve 38, the fuel valve 93 28 and the carbnreting chamber air inlet valve 3'2 are sinulltaneously and uniformly opened and closed. The valves more vertically in opening and closing and this is effected by rotative movement of the member The member 31 is provided with cams l1 coarcing with rollers 4:2 traveling on the cam roller supporting member H which is mounted on a shoulder on the members 7. The roller retaining ring 43 is loosely mounted on the member H. The member 33 is provided with a bearing member l5 co acting with the bearing member 46 carried by the body of the carlnireter, a ball bear ing' being provided in the structure illustrated. The a -tuating member :53 is held yieldinglv downward by the coiled spring 47. the lower end of which engages the ring 37. its upper end engaging the bearing member 45. On the upper end of the member 33 is a head 49 to which the operating lever 49 is attached. The head is secured to the member 23 by means of the sleeve nut 50 arranged in the chamber 51 in the head and threaded into the tubular member 33, the valve stem 3% being arranged through this sleeve-like nut as shown in Fig. .11. The head 48 is supported in a bearing 52 formed in the upper side of the body mcm- 320 bar 1. The stroke of the lever is regulated by the stop .33. on the lever head 43. coacting with the stop member Bl having stop shoulders 55 and 56. The stop member .34 is adjusted by means of the worm 57 the stop member being suitably toothed to court with the worm. The fuel valve projects from the member 31% and its head is provided with a linger piece 55% bearing suitable scale indicia. The fuel valve is retained in its adjusted position by the friction washer having fingers G engaging grooves 61 in the head to prevent its turning, the spring being arranged to bear against the washer. lVith the parts thus arranged, the fuel valve and carbureting chamber air inlet valve, and the throttle valve are all operated from the lever 49.
To control the temperature of the air passing to the carburetor, the conduit member is provided with a cold air inlet port 63 and with a hot air inlet 6% adapted to be connected to a suitable source of supply, as a coil (not shown) heated by the exhaust. The cold air inlet and the hot air inlet are both controlled by.the cylindrical valve 65 having a transverse port 66 of such length that the valve maybe adjusted to admit both the cold air and the hot air in varying proportions or to shut off the cold air or the hot air entirely and take only hot or cold air. The valve 65 is controlled by the lever 66 arranged in a convenient position, as upon the dash 31 0f ,a car when our improved carbureter is used on a motor car engine. The lever 66 is provided with a sleeve-like bearing member (38 arranged through the bearing 69of the support 70 which is mounted on. the front of the dash, the bearing 69 being arranged through the dash. On the rear end of the lever bearing m mber 68 is an arm 71 connected by the a T2 to the arm 73 on the valve 65. A Mil T l having suitable temperature indicia mounted on the support 70. The edge of the dial is notched, while the lever is pro vided with a. spring pressed pawl 7 adapted to engage the notches for retaining the lever in its adjusted position. The finger piece of the lever serves as an index. The numerals of the index dial indicate the position the lever should be adjusted to for the different temperatures. For instance, the lever 66 is shown adjusted to 4:0" and the air inlet valve is open to take hot and cold air approximately half in half. In a temperature of 80, the lever would be adjusted to 80'. In a temperature of zero, it would be adjusted to zero and a greater portion of the air taken would be through the hotair port. At ten below zero only hot air would be taken. This is found to be a very advantageous feature in the proper control of the carburetor and in securing the best results.
A. primer valve 76 is arranged above the reservoir 4 in a. chamber '77 provided therefor in the body member 1. The valve seat 87 for the valve 76 is formed in the wall of the body member 1. The valve chamber 77 connected the tube 79 with. the oil reservoir, the tube depending into the same as shown in Fig. VI. The valve is held yieldingly seated by means of the spring 80, one end of which bears against the collar 81 on the valve stem, the other being seated in the closure 82 for the chamber 77, the valve stem projecting through the end of the closure. The valve stem is provided with a disk-like head 83 with which the eccentric pin 84 on the rotating valve actuating member 85 coacts. The valve actuating member 85 is supported in a bearing 86 carried by the closure member 82. The actuating member 85 is connected by the flexible shaft 87 to the spindle 88 of the lever 89, the spindle 88 being journaled in the bearing sleeve 68 of the lever 66. See Figs. I, XII and XIII. The lever 89 is provided with a lug ill) coacting with a lug 91 on the lever 66. These lugs engage when the levers are swung to certain positions, for instance, when the primer control is adjusted to start the engine at temperature, the air control is shifted at the same time to the 10 position if it has not been previously adjusted to such position. The primer control lever may, however, be returned to its running position without moving the air control lever. \Vhen the lever (36 is swung agaii'ist the boss-like stop 92, the cold air port is fullv opened and the hot air entirely cut oil". This also swings the lever 89 against the stop 93 or to its closed or running position. By this arrangement, a very effective priming is secured which greatly facilitates the starting of the engine. Further, it the primer be opened during the last few strokes of the engine when stopping the same. the cylinders will receive such a charge of fuel that the engine can usually be started from the spark even for a considerable period after stopping.
