Abstract
An injection molded plastic turbine rotor for a rotor-type carburetor is assembled by simply pressing together upper and lower generally cylindrical sections. When joined in this manner the two sections form in the assembled rotor an internal circumferential seal between the two sections, and an internal passageway system which defines a centrifugal pump mechanism within the turbine rotor. In an alternate embodiment, the rotor includes a third plastic section which is captively retained within the rotor, between the upper and lower sections thereof, and is adapted to lockingly receive an end portion of a fuel supply tube inserted downwardly through a central opening formed through the upper section.
