Abstract

Carburetors for attaching to fuel-burning engines are described. The carburetors generate improved engine efficiency and reduced engine emissions by improving combustion of fuel. The carburetors include a plurality of nebulizers, each of which nebulizes a thin film of fuel covering a vibrating plate. The vibrating plate vibrates at a high frequency, and this vibration ejects a fog or mist of fuel particles into an air/fuel mixture channel that passes above the nebulizers in series. Air is drawn into the air/fuel mixture channel, passes over each of the plurality of nebulizers in turn, and then passes to a nebulized fuel outlet within a Venturi narrowing of a main channel of the carburetors. The Venturi narrowing provides a reduced air pressure area that performs the function of drawing the air through the air/fuel mixture channel over the nebulizers, thus drawing out the mixed air and nebulized fuel.
