  • Patent number: 5441030
    Abstract: A fuel injection system for a two-stroke cycle engine capable of keeping an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture for combustion at a low engine speed optimum to improve startability of the engine in a cold district. The system includes a low-speed basic injection time increment setting unit for setting a low-speed basic injection time increment Tfi depending on an engine speed N and a throttle opening .alpha., a low-speed crankcase temperature correction factor setting unit for setting a low-speed crankcase temperature correction factor KLc, time correction factor setting units for setting a time correction factor Kt which is decreased with an increase in crankcase temperature, as well as with lapse of time, and a low-speed injection time increment setting unit for setting a low-speed injection time increment TiL by multiplying the increment Tfi by the correction factors KLc and Kt.

  • Patent number: 5373827
    Abstract: A fuel injection equipment including a fuel injector for injecting fuel into a fuel injected space of an internal combustion engine and a fuel pump is disclosed. A generator which is driven by the internal combustion engine and has characteristics of being increased in output voltage or output current with an increase in engine rotation speed is used as any one of an injector driving power supply for feeding the fuel injector with an exciting current through an injector trigger circuit and a fuel pump driving power supply. Use of the generator as the power supply permits the fuel injection equipment to be controlled without requiring a complicated control circuit.

  • Patent number: 5216994
    Abstract: A fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine capable of being normally operated while using an output of a generator driven by the internal combustion engine as a power supply therefor. The system includes a switching circuit for switching a driving current fed to an injector from a main power circuit which uses the output of the generator as a power supply therefor. The switching circuit is controlled by a switch control circuit for which a power supply comprises a control power circuit. The control power circuit includes a storage unit for storing electric power therein, so that the storage unit may be act as a power supply when the output of the main power circuit is reduced, to thereby feed the switch control circuit with a power supply voltage of a level equal to or above an operable level.
