Abstract: A carburetor choke mechanism including an actuator linearly expanded and contracted based on a temperature change; a connection lever which is connected to a rotation axis at one end, and rotates based on receiving a thrust of the actuator; a choke lever which is connected with the other end of the connection lever, and receives a rotary force; and a valve shaft where a choke valve is fixed to one end thereof, and a valve shaft lever which receives a transfer of a rotary force from the choke lever is provided on the other end thereof, wherein the choke lever has a bottomed cylindrical shape covering an outer circumference of the valve shaft lever, and the valve shaft lever penetrates a bottom thereof, and is provided rotatably, and a connection mechanism between the connection lever and the choke lever is provided inside a cylindrical outer periphery of the choke lever.

Abstract: A carburetor having a throttle valve in the form of a disc which can be rotated to control flow of an air/fuel mixture through a duct, the throttle disc having a heating element and a temperature sensor formed on at least one surface of said throttle disc; and an electric power supply, the electric power supply being controlled by the temperature sensor, to maintain the temperature of the throttle disc above a predetermined minimum temperature.
