Cam actuated fuel modulating engine governor

摘要

A diesel engine mechanical governor is disclosed having various novel features including a fuel modulating and maximum and minimum speed controlling cam plate and follower mechanism which connects the governor speed responsive actuating mechanism with the fuel rack actuating means to modify the effect of the manual fuel control means in a predetermined manner. The disclosure also includes novel rocking flyweight mechanism arranged to provide an output force as a function of rotational input shaft speed in which the exponential increase in centrifugal force upon outward rocking of the flyweights is partially offset to provide a more gradual increase in force with a corresponding increase of speed.
