Latest Patents
Glenn C Beavis holds a patent for a "Vacuum bleed and flow restrictor fitting for fuel injected engines." This invention is designed for use in marine fuel systems for fuel-injected internal combustion engines. The fitting features a first reduced diameter passage that provides a vacuum bleed orifice, which partially vents vacuum from the induction manifold to the atmosphere. This design limits the peak vacuum applied to the vapor separator, preventing an overly rich fuel-air mixture during rapid engine deceleration. Additionally, the fitting includes a one-way check valve that allows for controlled fuel flow from the vapor separator to the high-pressure fuel injection pump.
