Abstract: Air bleeding apparatus for an exhaust emission control system comprising three plates joined face to face. The first plate has a plurality of grooves each communicating at one end with a vacuum source and at the other end with a vacuum actuator for an ignition timing control system or an exhaust gas recirculation control valve. The second plate has a plurality of orifices communicating with the grooves, respectively; the third end plate has a vent hole therethrough and grooves diverging from the vent hole and respectively communicating with the orifices. The second plate is joined abuttingly to and between the first and third plates whereby the grooves form conduits therewith, whereby the conduits of the first plate communicate with the vent hole of the third plate through the respective orifices of the second plate and the respective conduits of the third plate. The characteristics of the apparatus may be varied by changing the second plate to one having different orifices.

Abstract: An exhaust gas purification system for internal combustion engines having at least two cylinders of which the port of each exhaust valve communicates with a port passage provided in the cylinder head, and a pair of the adjacent port passages communicate with a common port passage forming a siamese port passage therewith. A secondary air intake passage having a check valve communicates with the port passages for introducing secondary air by exhaust pulsation. In order to enhance the exhaust pulsation effect, the exhaust pipe connected to the opening of the common port passage has a constant cross section of a fixed diameter. Heat insulation is provided along the siamese port passage and a portion of the exhaust pipe for good oxidation of the unburned constituents. The total volume of the exhaust passage through the siamese port passage and the heat insulated exhaust pipe portion is equal to the displacement volume of the corresponding cylinders for introduction of a sufficient amount of the secondary air.

Means for bleeding air into the vacuum conduit includes at least one replaceable orifice. Another ambient air bleeding means comprises three plates which are joined face to face to one after another to form internal fluid connections between pressure and vacuum conduits through which intake passageway vacuum is applied to a vacuum actuator in an exhaust emission control system. One of the three plates is formed with a plurality of air bleed control orifices and can be easily replaced with another one.

Abstract: The valve-overlapping period of a spark ignition type, four stroke internal combustion engine extends within the range of 60.degree. to 90.degree. of crank angle with the valve overlapping period being generally equally divided to each side of the piston top dead center so that the pressure differential between the exhaust gas passage of the engine and the fuel and air intake passage causes the exhaust gas to counterflow from the exhaust gas passage to the combustion chamber and into the intake passage of the engine with the suction effect of piston descent being negligible when the piston is in the vicinity of top dead center.
