A fuel feed system adapted to maintain at a constant value the pressure difference across a fuel measuring gate disposed in a fuel feed passage and control the area of opening of the fuel measuring gate in connection with the amount of air being sucked into an internal combustion engine so as to continuously measure the fuel, the measured fuel being concentratedly injected at a positive pressure into the suction pipe. The system comprises an accelerator pump interlocked to a throttle valve for injecting fuel at a positive pressure into the suction pipe during acceleration. The accelerator pump is fed with fuel sucked up from the return pipe of a pressure regulator which feeds the fuel measuring gate with fuel at a predetermined pressure.

Fuel feed system

A fuel flow rate measuring device comprising a control rod axially movable in proportion to the rate of flow of air flowing through a suction pipe, a ball disposed in a taper bore and adapted to be moved in the taper bore by the control rod, the taper bore and the ball cooperating with each other to define a clearance which is variable in proportion to the rate of flow of the air, and a pressure regulator provided between a fluid inlet and outlet for keeping constant the fluid pressure difference across the clearance defined by the taper bore and ball.
