  • Patent number: 5584467
    Abstract: A fluid flow control system which can function under a range of input pressures for regulating the flow of fluid as a function of a variable input voltage and having a feedback feature which produces an electrical signal equivalent to the volume of fluid actually flowing from the control system, comprising a pressure balanced valve, a proportional solenoid having a movable shaft responsive to the input voltage and adapted to open the valve, said valve including, a fluid intake chamber having an intake port and a valve port, a fluid discharge chamber having a discharge port, a valve disk and a cooperating valve seat where the valve disk is connected to the shaft of the proportional solenoid so as to open and close the valve, a flexible diaphragm having a centrally disposed piston in contact with the valve disk a pressure equalizing chamber contiguous to the diaphragm, a biasing spring in contact with the piston and exerting a force thereon in a direction toward the valve disk for normally maintaining the valve

  • Patent number: 5343847
    Abstract: A gaseous fuel delivery system for an internal combustion engine having at least one cylinder with fuel intake and exhaust gas ports and an ignition system and having a controlled air intake system for each of the cylinders of the engine which includes a source of gaseous fuel, a fuel plenum having at least one fuel atomizer nozzle for each cylinder of the engine, where each nozzle is in communication with the air intake system proximate the intake port in each cylinder, a fuel flow rate control device connected between the source of gaseous fuel and the fuel plenum which contains an electronic control unit having a plurality of optimum fuel/air mixture variables as inputs and a modulated pulse width output connected to a linear d.c. motor, the shaft stroke of which controls the operation of a fuel valve for regulating the flow of fuel from the gaseous source to the fuel plenum.
