An engine stop operation input portion 12 is installed in the slider 5 and an engine stop operation output portion 13 is opposite to the engine stop operation input portion 12. When an engine stop operation is performed, engine stop operation force 14 is inputted from the engine stop operation output portion 13 to the engine stop operation input portion 12 and the slider 5 slides in the direction of the decrease in the fuel amount with the governor lever 1 remained intact so that the engine is stopped. A virtual line 16 is assumed to pass through a central portion of the biasing spring 9 when seen from a direction parallel to the adjustment amount rack pin 8.

Abstract: A negative rate shaping torque capsule is provided that effectively reduces torque rise of the engine. The device is part of the mechanical governor and allows fuel control rack position to decrease as engine speed decreases, thus reducing the amount of fuel delivered and reducing torque rise. The device works by the addition of a pivot arm to the existing main governor arm. One end of the pivot arm is pinned to the governor arm, and a roller is pinned to the opposite end. This roller bears on the fuel rack, maintaining rack position. An additional roller is pinned to the side of the pivot arm and bears on the tension arm. The travel of the pivot arm relative to the governor arm is limited in one direction by a physical stop, and in the other direction by a torque capsule (TC) spring. The TC spring is fixed to the governor arm and bears on the pivot arm roller opposite the tension arm. The TC spring holds the pivot arm roller against the tension arm.

Abstract: An oil separator for blow-by gases formed in internal combustion engines includes a nozzle that has a plurality of holes located in the air flow path of the blow-by gases. The diameter of the holes and the thickness of the nozzle results in the flow of blow-by gases being accelerated as the gases flow through the nozzle so that small droplets of oil in the blow-by gases tend to be formed into fewer and larger oil droplets. A portion of the oil droplets will coalesce on the outer surface of the nozzle and drain to an oil drain. The remainder of the accelerated blow-by gas flows through an air gap adjacent the outer surface of the nozzle onto an impervious impingement plate or surface. At least a substantial portion of the remaining oil droplets in the blow-by gases will coalesce on the impingement surface and flow along the impingement surface to the oil drain for reintroduction into the oil reservoir of the engine. The cleansed blow-by gases then flow out of the oil separator through an outlet.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine protection system utilizes lubrication oil pressure to directly protect an engine against failure of the lubrication oil system. The protection system comprises a yieldable base member assembly that replaces the conventional fixed surface of a governor housing for resisting the governor centrifugal weights and high speed spring. The yieldable base member assembly comprises a cylinder and piston arrangement. Lubrication oil is directed to a chamber in the cylinder behind the piston. As long as the lubrication oil pressure maintains the desired value, the piston remains fixed and functions as the conventional fixed surface. Should lubrication oil pressure fall for any reason, the governor high speed spring and centrifugal weights force the piston to move in the cylinder. The high speed spring and centrifugal weights also move to actuate fuel control racks to an engine shut down condition.

Abstract: When motor vehicles are driven, discontinuities that lead to load spikes arise between overrunning and running under load. The load spikes are avoided by means of a discontinuous increase in fuel quantity, which makes it possible for the engine to come gently to rest in its suspension, to bypass the drive play, and to convert the changes in increased fuel quantity without bucking. By incorporating drag elements into the connection between the arbitrary actuation of an intermediate lever, which affects the fuel injection quantity, and an idling stop, a discontinuous adjustment of the intermediate lever is attained.

Abstract: The lever (13) cooperates on the one hand with a rotatable part (12) and, on the other, is coupled with a to-and-fro movable adjusting member (14). The lever (13) consists of a housing (15) traversed by the rotatable part (12), of a piston-like spring plate (16) and of a return spring (19) clamped-in between housing (15) and sping plate (16). Spring plate (16) and rotatable part (12) form in the mutually cooperating area a torque-limiting driving device. The hollow space (25) underneath the spring plate (16) is adapted to be acted upon with oil pressure by bores (21, 22) in the rotatable part (12) which are controllably connected to a pressure oil source (24). The oil pressure displaces the spring plate (16) so that the driving device is disengaged. The lever (13) is then displaced by the spring (27) of the to-and-fro movable part into an end position independently of the position of the rotatable part (12) which corresponds to the zero delivery of the fuel injection pump (11).

Abstract: A speed governing apparatus for an internal combustion engine. A plurality of flyweights are pivoted to a flyweight carrier mounted on the cam shaft of the engine and a surface of each flyweight is engaged with the end of a spool that is mounted for rotation with the cam shaft, but can move axially thereof.

Abstract: A mechanical injection pump governor is provided having a first adapting device which acts in the lower speed range up to the full-load characteristic curve of a supercharged diesel engine for adapting the delivery quantity of the injection pump to the fuel requirement of the diesel engine. The adapting device contains a spring-loaded diaphragm which is acted upon by a supercharge and is connected to the control rod of the injection pump. The lift of the diaphragm, when supercharge pressure is applied, is limited by a full load stop which determines the adapting end point.

Thus the maximum injection quantity is reduced in accordance with operating conditions and with the operational status of the engine; by this means, environmentally safer and smoother engine operation is possible at all operating conditions. The injection pump is also capable of continuing to function if the electrical or electronic parts fail.
