发明名称 Modified float bowl and drain valve for a carburetor
摘要 A carburetor draining system for safe and convenient draining. A vessel posterior end of a vessel is disposed against a carburetor body. A vessel base is disposed against a vessel anterior end. A base aperture is disposed on the vessel base. A stem posterior portion of a drain stem is disposed inside the vessel chamber and a stem anterior portion protrudes from the base aperture. A drain port disposed through the stem posterior portion intersects a drain channel disposed inside the stem anterior portion. A locking mechanism secures the vessel to the carburetor body. A valve body of a valve is removeably disposed inside the drain channel. A first seal on the valve body is pressed against an interior surface of the drain channel. A second seal is disposed on a valve stem. A valve handle moves the valve into a closed position or an open position for draining.

主权项 1. A carburetor draining system (100) for draining a carburetor, said carburetor draining system (100) comprising: a) a tubular vessel (110) comprising a vessel posterior end (111), a vessel anterior end (112), a substantially transparent vessel sidewall (113) disposed between the vessel posterior end (111) and the vessel anterior end (112), and an interior vessel chamber (114), wherein the vessel posterior end (111) is disposed against a carburetor body (105); b) a vessel base (115) removeably disposed against the vessel anterior end (112), wherein a base aperture (116) is disposed on the vessel base (115); c) a drain stem (130) comprising a stem posterior portion (131), a stem anterior portion (132), and at least one drain port (133), wherein the stem posterior portion (131) is attached to a siphon tube (120) that protrudes from the carburetor body (105) and partially extends into the vessel chamber (114), wherein the stem posterior portion (131) is disposed inside the vessel chamber (114), wherein the stem anterior portion (132) protrudes from the base aperture (116), wherein the drain port (133) is disposed through the stem posterior portion (131) such that the drain port (133) is directly adjacent to the vessel base (115), wherein the drain port (133) intersects a drain channel (134) disposed inside the stem anterior portion (132), wherein the drain channel (134) terminates at a stem anterior end (135); d) a locking mechanism (140) removeably attached to the stem anterior portion (132) of the drain stem (130), wherein the locking mechanism (140) secures the vessel (110) to the carburetor body (105); e) a valve (150) comprising a hollow valve body (151), a valve stem (152) disposed inside a hollow portion (153) of the valve body (151), and a valve handle (160) disposed on a valve body anterior end (155), wherein the valve body (151) is removeably disposed inside the drain channel (134), wherein a first seal (156) is disposed on a valve body posterior end (154) such that the first seal (156) is pressed against an interior surface (136) of the drain channel (134) to make a leak-proof seal between the drain channel (134) and the valve body (151), wherein a second seal (157) is disposed on a valve stem posterior end (158), wherein a handle aperture (161) is disposed on the valve handle (160) such that the handle aperture (161) is fluidly connected to the hollow portion (153) of the valve body (151), and wherein the valve handle (160) moves the valve (150) into an open position or a closed position; and wherein when the valve (150) is in the closed position, the second seal (157) is pressed against an intersection (137) of the drain port (133) and the drain channel (134) to block a drain path (170) through the hollow portion (153) of the valve body (151),wherein when the valve (150) is in the open position, the second seal (157) is pulled away from the intersection (137) to open the drain path (170) through the hollow portion (153) of the valve body (151), wherein any effluent contained in the vessel chamber (114) enters the drain port (133), passes through the drain channel (134), flows through the hollow portion (153) of the valve body (151), and exits through the handle aperture (161), andwherein the carburetor draining system (100) safely and conveniently drains the effluent from the vessel (110).
