<p>A variable venturi carburetor has a vertically movable head which moves along the downwardly extending induction passage. The movable head includes a lower member whose vertical position is determined by an accelerator pedal for the engine on which the carburetor is adapted and an upper member defining within the induction passage an annular venturi zone and being vertically movable relative to the lower member to vary the cross-sectional area of the venturi zone in response to the negative pressure developed behind the venturi zone within the induction passage. Thus, the venturi zone area is varied depending on the depression of the accelerator pedal as well as the negative pressure indicative of the ongoing engine condition such that an optimum amount of fuel is drawn therefrom to efficiently operate the engine throughout the operational range of engine RPM and load conditions. At a starting condition, more fuel is initially fed to the venturi zone through a power jet which opens in response to the introduced atmospheric pressure behind the venturi zone just before the engine starting as well as through an ever-opened main jet, whereby, in addition to more powerful suction being developed by a minimum venturi area caused by the relative movement of the upper member in response to such atmospheric pressure in the engine, produces a very rich mixture enough to start the engine without using the conventional choke valve.</p> |
