  • Patent number: 6708661
    Abstract: During the starting, a) the temperature (T) of the engine and the pressure (P) of the fuel delivered by said pressurizing means are monitored, b) if T is below a predetermined threshold temperature (Ts), an engine starting mode is established in which the engine is started with fuel at high pressure as soon as the pressure (P) becomes higher than a predetermined threshold pressure (Ps1), and c) an engine starting mode is established where the engine is started using fuel at low pressure if T>Ts.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6705295
    Abstract: The injectors (6i) allocated to the cylinders are supplied with fuel by a common injection train and their opening time is calculated and controlled by a computer. According to the invention, a) any possible overlap in the opening time of at least two injectors (6i) is detected, b) in the absence of an overlap, the fuel pressure in the train outside the opening time of the injector concerned is determined, c) if an overlap is present, the pressure of the fuel when the injector concerned is opened is determined and d) the measurement established is corrected according to a predetermined variation in the pressure of the fuel caused by the injector(s) opening.

  • Patent number: 5209192
    Abstract: Two-cycle engine with fuel injection, of the type having at least one cylinder (3) in which a piston (5) is mounted to slide. A crankshaft is connected to this piston and housed in a housing (2), cylinder (3) further communicating with an intake circuit with pressurized combustion air (7) by at least one intake orifice (17) placed in the vicinity of the bottom dead center of the piston and with a circuit for exhaust of the combustion gases. The exhaust circuit comes out in cylinder (3) by at least two exhaust orifices: a first orifice (18) placed approximately at the level of the intake orifice (17) and a second orifice (19) placed above the first.

  • Patent number: 4917352
    Abstract: Electromagnetic injector of the pressure-time type, which comprises a toric electromagnet coil (2, 12) of the axisymmetric solid type, housed in a magnetic circuit support (13), as well as a mobile element consisting of a plane plate (3) solid with a liner (4) which moves a suspended needle (18) forming with a seat (45, 19), reverse clack (41) of the injector, the needle being kept at rest by return spring (20).
