  • Patent number: 4934601
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a pulse fog generator powered by a resonant intermittent combustion device having a carburetor and a combustion antechamber, includes a starting air supply system for directing a flow of starting air into the antechamber, comprising an inlet/outlet ball check valve mounted over the discharge opening piston chamber within which a piston head is reciprocated by a connecting rod eccentrically mounted to an electric motor. A priming pump is mounted on the carburetor, and comprises a priming fuel chamber hydraulically communicating with the carburetor and a piston reciprocatable within the priming fuel chamber to draw fuel from a fuel tank into the priming fuel chamber and to discharge the fuel from the priming fuel chamber into the carburetor. In lieu of the reciprocatable piston, a resilient priming bulb and valve assembly can supply the priming fuel to the throat passage of the carburetor in another embodiment.
