COMBINATION FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE OF ECOLOGICALLY CLEAN VEHICLES, SUCH AS AUTOMOBILES Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; supply of engine with gasoline-hydrogen-air mixture. SUBSTANCE: fuel supply system has fuel tank with hydrocarbon fuel, fuel carburetor with spacer, reservoir with hydrogen carrier placed in thermostat and connected with carburetor through pressure regulator and hydrogen flow regulator, electromagnetic valve and series connected storage battery, electronic control unit and ignition switch. Detachable hydrogen carrier reservoir consists of at least two cylindrical bottles filled with alloy-hydrogen accumulator and interconnected by ramp. Hydrogen flow regulator has electromagnetic valves, at least two hydrogen meters, air cutoff valve, and is connected by at least two pipelines, passing through spacer, with engine manifold. Hydrogen flow electromagnetic valves are electrically connected with electronic control unit. At least one of hydrogen meters is mechanically coupled with carburetor throttle valve. Thermostat has tubular system made up of rubber hoses placed inside thermostat which accommodate bottles with alloy-hydrogen accumulator. Thermostat is connected with engine cooling system. EFFECT: possibility of transfer of vehicle with carburetor gasoline-air supply to combination gasoline-hydrogen-air supply by connecting detachable hydrogen fuel source. 2 cl, 3 dwg
