Abstract: A variable venturi type carburetor comprising a carburetor body provided with a suction passage therein, a slide valve supported by the body for movement across the suction passage to function as a variable venturi and a butterfly throttle valve pivotably supported by the carburetor body downstream of the slide valve. An interlocking mechanism connects the slide valve and the butterfly throttle valve for operation in correspondence with one another and the interlocking mechanism is arranged in a housing chamber formed in a side portion of the carburetor body. The interlocking mechanism includes a regulator member which is accessible from outside the housing chamber.

Abstract: A variable venturi type carburetor comprising a carburetor body provided with a suction passage for flow of air therethrough, a slide valve supported by the body for slidable movement across the suction passage to serve as a variable venturi and a butterfly throttle valve pivotably supported by the carburetor body downstream of the slide valve. An interlocking mechanism connects the slide valve and butterfly throttle valve together for operating in correspondence with one another and one of the valves is operated by application of an external force thereto. A low-speed fuel nozzle opens into the suction passage in the vicinity of the butterfly throttle valve, an intermediate- and high-speed main fuel nozzle opens into the suction passage opposite the slide valve, and a low- and intermediate-speed primary fuel nozzle opens into the suction passage between the slide valve and the butterfly throttle valve.

Abstract: A variable venturi type carburetor comprising a carburetor body having an intake passage in which is disposed a slide valve slidably supported for travel across the intake passage to function as a variable venturi. A butterfly throttle valve is pivotably supported by the body in the intake passage downstream of the slide valve. A low-speed fuel passageway and a main fuel passageway open into the intake passage proximate the butterfly throttle valve and directly below the slide valve respectively. The slide valve and butterfly throttle valve are interconnected by a linkage for interlocked operation over a range from their fully closed positions to their fully opened positions with the degree of opening of the slide valve being greater than that of the butterfly valve by a predetermined magnitude at least for low opening degrees thereof. An external force is applied to one of the valves to operate that valve and the other of the valves conjointly therewith.

Abstract: A sliding throttle valve type carburetor comprising a sliding throttle valve, an air intake passage and a fuel float chamber, the sliding throttle valve extending along a line of intersection with the intake passage and being disposed at an acute angle relative to the portion of the intake passage upstream from the sliding throttle valve. The sliding throttle valve forms an angle of intersection with the portion of the fuel surface in the float chamber upstream from the sliding throttle valve which is greater than the aforementioned acute angle.
