- the collector of the first transistor 47 also leads to the junction between the second charging resistor 31 and the second capacitor 32, through a resistor 53.
- the components of the second passive network 30' differ from those of the first passive network 30, only in their component values. Otherwise, the arrangement is the same. However, no corresponding resistor is provided for the element 53. This resistor must be omitted in the second passive network, since it gives rise to switching hysteresis.

- the monostable multivibrator 16 is switched back to its stable state, these steps or processes are carried out in reverse, and the injection valves become again closed.
- the second transistor 48 functions simply as an inverting stage. The second transistor 48 must, thereby, become nonconducting when the injection valves are to be opened.
- the base electrode of the transistors d7 and 47 are affected only through the resistors 51 and 51'.
- the transistor 47' switches in the reverse direction from the transistor 48 with which it forms a bistable stage as.
- the transistor 47' is turned off when the second transistor 48 becomes conducting or is turned on.
- the switch 39 becomes closed, the same situation applies for the transistor 47 which also forms. a bistable stage 45, together with the second transistor 48.
- the diodes 37 and 37' are in the circuit, they influence or affect the switching of the bistable stage 45 and 46 only when the passive networks 361) and 3% have negative output pulses.
- the control arrangement has the purpose or object of preventing the opening of the injection valves '70 under two operating conditions of the engine. This task is achieved through the passive networks 3i) and 3b which provide negative output pulses so that the switching of the bistable stages 45 and as is prevented or inhibited. These two operating conditions of the engine are as follows:
- the base electrode or the base terminal of the third transistor 47' must receive a negative pulse, so that the second transistor d8 is prevented from being turned off.
- the collector of the transistor 19 is at positive potential.
- the second capacitor 32 becomes charged through the resistors 29', 33, and 311'.

- This potential becomes negative when U,, becomes smaller than in U This situation prevails, consequently, at higher pulse frequency when only a substantially small time interval is available for charging the second capacitor 32'.
- the second passive network 30 applies to its second terminal (98', negative output pulses when the maximum speed of the engine is exceeded.
- the maximum engine speed limit can be set through the third resistor 33' which is constructed in the form of a trimming potentiometer, for the purpose of accurate setting.
- the output pulses of the second passive network 30' have a steep leading edge, and decay exponentially, since the first capacitor as discharges through the fourth resistor 35'.
- the second transistor 48 Below the maximum engine speed, the second transistor 48 has applied to it pulses of alternating polarity, through the line 73 and the RC network 59,6ll.

- the short negative pulse of approximately 10 microseconds is applied to the base of the second transistor 48, through the line 73.

- the injection valves are not capable of opening within 10 microseconds because of their substantially large inertia. The longer positive pulse then causes the second transistor 48 to be conducting after the approximately 10 microseconds, and prevents the opening, thereby, of the injection valve 90.
- the first bistable stage 45 functions in a similar manner in maintaining the valves closed during operation.
- the base of the first transistor 47 is joined with the positive voltage supply line, through the resistors 41 and 42.

- the voltage U, at the capacitor 32 becomes, thereby, smaller.
- the upper frequency limit of the first passive network 30 becomes, thereby, smaller, as soon as the first passive network 30 provided a negative output signal.

- this transistor 48 serves as part of the second bistable stage 46.
- the transistor 47 serves in the first place as part of the first bistable stage 45, and then in the second place the transistor 47 serves to form an AND gate together with the diodes 37 and 40, the resistors 41 and 42, and the switch 39.
- FIG. 2 illustrates the switching circuit for a second embodiment of the control arrangement.
- the four injection valves are subdivided into two groups of two injection valves each. Each one of these groups has its own control channel.
- the power transistor 11 forms together with the transistor 219, the first control channel.
- This transistor 219 in front of the power transistor 11 serves in the form of an AND gate.
- the power transistor 11 forms the second control channel together with the transistor 220 which also serves as an AND gate.
- Each of the two control channels can be selected through one common bistable multivibrator 200, in an alternating manner for a subsequent injection process with two of the four injection valves.
- the multivibrator 200 is bordered with a dashed line in the drawing.
- This multivibrator has two transistors 201 and 202 of npn type. The emitters of these two transistors are directly connected to the negative supply line 65, whereas their collectors lead to the positive voltage supply line 66 through resistors 203 and 204, respectively. From the collector or from the resistor 204 of the transistor 202, stems a feedback network consisting of the series circuit of resistors 205, resistor 206 and a diode base of the transistor 201. The base of the transistor 201 leads to the negative voltage supply line 65 through a resistor 208.
- the collector of the transistor 201 is connected, in an analogous manner, to the base of the transistor 202, through the two resistors 211 and 212, as well as the diode 213.
- the base of the transistor 202 leads to the negative voltage supply line 65 through the resistor 214.
- the selection of the control channel is performed through the two switches 209 and 215 which are present in the distributor, not shown, of the high voltage ignition arrangement of the internal combustion engine. The fixed contacts of these switches are connected to the negative voltage supply line 65.
- the switching arm of the switch 209 is joined to the junction of the two feedback resistors 205 and 206.
- the switching arm or movable contact of the switch 215, on the other hand, is connected to the junction of the resistors 211 and 212, which are connected in series and lead to the base of the transistor 202.
- the bistable multivibrator 200 does not have only the task of selecting one of the control channels.
- This multivibrator 200 also delivers control pulses for the monostable multivibrator 16. These pulses are provided by the switch 17 in the first embodiment.
- Two differentiating networks are provided for this purpose. These differentiating networks are composed of the series circuits of a capacitor 229 or 230 and a resistor 231 or 232, respectively.
- the free terminal of the capacitor 229 is connected to the collector of the transistor 202, and the free terminal of the capacitor 230 is connected to the collector of the transistor 201.
- the free terminals of the two resistors 231 or 232 are connected to the negative voltage supply line 65.
- a respective diode 233 and 234 lead to the base of the transistor 18 which forms a part of the monostable multivibrator 16.
- the monostable multivibrator 16 is thereby actuated when either the switch 209 or the switch 215 are closed. For this reason the monostable multivibrator 16 can determine the pulse duration of both control channels for the fuel injection arrangement.
- This feedback circuit leads to the The output pulses provided by the collector of the transistor 19 are processed further in a circuit which is similar to the one used in the first embodiment.
- the second transistor 48 functions again as an inverting stage.
- the transistor 48 controls the switching transistor 226 which has its collector joined to the bases of the two transistors 219 and 220 through resistors 222 and 223, respectively.
- These two transistors 219 and 220 function as AND gates.
- the operational mode of the AND gate is explained in the example related to the first control channel: the switching transistor 11 can conduct only when the transistor 219 is turned off. Two conditions must be fulfilled therewith. First of all, the transistor 201 within the bistable multivibrator 200 must conduct, and secondly, the switching transistor 226 must conduct. The transistor 226, however, conducts only when the second transistor 48 is turned off. i
- the two cams 210 and 216 actuate the switches 209 and 215 in a synchronous manner, and they are adjusted so that one switch is closed when the other is opened.
- the switch 215 closes, for example, the transistor 202 is turned off and the transistor 201 becomes conducting.
- the monostable multivibrator 16 becomes actuated over the differentiating networks, and as a result the second transistor 48 becomes also turned off.
- the switching transistor 11 conducts thereby and actuates both injection valves of the first group.
- a voltage divider is provided with resistor 133 and the resistor 132, as well as the thermistor 131.
- the charging voltage of the first capacitor 36 becomes determined through the resistor 35 and the magnitude of the voltage across the second capacitor 32.
- the resistor 35 is omitted in the second embodiment.
- the charging voltage of the first capacitor 36 becomes determined through the voltage divider 132, 131.
- the thermistor 131 is in thermal contact with the engine block, and has a high resistance at low temperatures.
- the first capacitor 36 becomes charged to a higher voltage at lower temperatures, so that the frequency limit of the first passive network 30 shifts to higher values. It is achieved therewith that the switchon speed becomes set to the required higher idling speed when the engine is cold. This is required in order that the engine can freely operate or turn over even at low temperatures.
- the first terminal 67' of the second passive network 30 is not connected with the output of the multivibrator 16, but is instead connected with the collector of the transistor 202 in the bistable multivibrator 200.
- This switching arrangement is advantageous because the phase relationship of the output pulses of the monostable multivibrator 16, i.e., the relationship of pulse duration to period, is dependent upon the manifold intake pressure of the engine. Since the charging voltage of the second capacitor 32' is determined from the levels of the pulse dwell intervals, the frequency limit of the second passive network 30' depends on the intake manifold pressure, in the first embodiment. In the case of the first passive network 30,, this is of no consequence, since the throttle is closed during operation. In contrast to this, the maximum speed varies as a function of the intake manifold pressure up to approximately 15 per cent, in the first embodiment in which the second passive network 30' interconnects the fuel injection.
- pulses are applied to the second passive network 30', which have a duration to period ratio that is not dependent upon the intake manifold pressure. These pulses appear only when a single control channel is actuated, so that when the maximum engine speed is exceeded, only the valves of a single valve group becomes closed. In spite of this, effective safety against excessive speeds is obtained in smaller engines of lower power, since the power of the engine drops to less than half, when half of the fuel injection valves are closed. If the arrangement in accordance with the present invention is to be installed in engines with large power output, then all injection valves must be made closeable when the maximum engine speed is exceeded.
- the first embodiment is basically applicable to this purpose.
- the control arrangement can be modified without the use of large equipment or complex design. It is only necessary to provide a pulse emitter or generator which applies a pulse to the second passive network 30' when each control channel is actuated. The pulse duration to period ratio of the pulses is thereby not dependent on the intake manifold pressure or manifold vacuum. In this case, it is possible to apply the output pulses of the monostable multivibrator 16 to a further monostable multivibrator. This further monostable multivibrator then provide pulses which no longer have a duration to period ratio which is dependent upon the intake manifold pressure. These pulses can then be used for controlling or applying to the second passive network.
- the basic concept of the present invention is to provide an arrangement that safely secures against excessive speeds during operation of an engine, through the use of two electronic circuits which are used to control the injection valves.
- the present invention is applicable to different circuitry. It is also possible, in accordance with the present invention, to design the circuits so that they can take into account still further parameters as, for example, the engine temperature. It is possible, for example, to modify the second passive network 30' by inserting a temperature dependent resistor, so that the maximum engine speed is also limited to lower values at lower temperatures. This is of advantage because when the engine is cold, the lubrication presents difficulties and problems.
