Fuel control method for hand-carried engine-driven working machine

摘要

The opening of a solenoid valve is automatically adjusted after an engine is started and before actual work is performed for an appropriate air-fuel ratio, whereby it is possible to attain a good and stable driving of the engine without any delay even for an abrupt change in load. After the engine is started, when a rotation speed enters a “fuel flow rate adjusting rotation speed range” in which a definite load is applied to the engine in a working rotation speed range of the engine in which a throttle valve is opened to a definite opening, a detected rotation speed is fed back to a target rotation speed, and the opening of the solenoid valve is controlled to adjust a fuel flow rate, so that the combustion state in the engine is optimized at the valve opening so determined.

1. A fuel control method for a hand-carried engine-driven working machine having an assembly of an engine and a carburetor which are mounted on the hand-carried engine-driven working machine, the carburetor having a solenoid valve which is provided along a fuel line thereof to control a fuel flow rate in a working rotation speed range of the engine, the engine having a control unit provided therein to detect a rotation speed of the engine and control the solenoid valve, the fuel control method for the hand-carried engine-driven working machine comprising steps:
performing a fuel flow rate adjusting process (F.F.R.A.P.) to adjust the fuel flow rate which is caused to vary based on a working environment by changing an opening of the solenoid valve after the engine is started and before actual work is performed; in the fuel flow rate adjusting process (F.F.R.A.P), with the engine operated under a definite load and at a definite throttle opening, and when a detected rotation speed, which is current rotation speed, enters a fuel flow rate adjusting rotation speed range (F.F.R.A.R.S.R.) that is set for adjusting the fuel flow rate within the working rotation speed range, adjusting the opening of the solenoid valve by feeding back the detected rotation speed so that the detected rotation speed becomes a target rotation speed which is predetermined as a rotation speed at which an air-fuel ratio expected in that state is obtained, and when the detected rotation speed stays within a fuel flow rate adjustment completion speed range (F.F.R.A.C.S.R.) which is predetermined within the fuel flow rate adjusting rotation speed range while the engine rotates a definite number of turns or for a definite period of time, determining the opening of the solenoid valve to be an adjustment completion opening (A.C.O.); and performing actual work at the obtained adjustment completion opening (A.C.O.) after completing the fuel flow rate adjusting process (F.F.R.A.P.).
