Title: Fuel consumption optimizer and carbon dioxide emissions reducer based on an air-vacuum liquid compensation system
IPC: F02M33/00
Filed: 1996-12-19
Abstract: 1. A device for optimizing fuel consumption and reducing carbon dioxide exhaust emissions in an internal combustion engine, wherein a vacuum is generated when the engine is started, wherein said device comprises: a booster container comprising: a container body; an inlet nozzle for air entering said booster container and an outlet nozzle for air leaving said booster container; a body of liquid within said container body, said body of liquid being disposed remotely from said inlet nozzle and said outlet nozzle; a plurality of deflectors located within and attached to said container body, forming passages through which the air travels and at least one of said plurality of deflectors is partially immersed in the body of liquid; wherein the air leaves the body of liquid under vacuum low pressure and passes through said passages formed between said plurality of deflectors and leaves the booster container through said outlet nozzle which is connected to the internal combustion engine. 2. A device for optimizing fuel consumption and reducing carbon dioxide exhaust emissions in an internal combustion engine having an intake manifold to which said device is connected, wherein a vacuum is generated in the intake manifold when the engine is started, wherein said device comprises: a booster container comprising: a container body; an inlet nozzle for air entering said booster container and an outlet nozzle for air leaving said booster container; a body of liquid within said container body, said body of liquid being disposed remotely from said inlet nozzle and said outlet nozzle; a plurality of deflectors located within and attached to said container body, forming passages through which the air travels and at least one of said plurality of deflectors is partially immersed in the body of liquid; wherein air at atmospheric pressure enters the booster container and passes around al least said one of said deflectors into the body of liquid and is influenced by low pressure vacuum from the intake manifold, wherein the air leaves the body of liquid under the low pressure vacuum and passes through said passages formed between said plurality of deflectors and leaves the booster container through said outlet nozzle which is connected to the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine, whereby the air travels to the intake manifold under the low pressure vacuum. 3. A device according to Claim 2, wherein one of said passages is formed for channelling the air from the inlet nozzle to the liquid. 4. A device according to Claim 2, wherein the liquid is a member selected from the group consisting of mineral oil, engine oil, oil mixtures and methanol. 5. A device according to Claim 2, wherein the booster container is made of molded plastic polymer. 6. A device according to Claim 2, wherein at least two of said deflectors are partially immersed in the liquid. 7. A device according to Claim 2, wherein a plurality of said deflectors are positioned spaced away from each other, thereby forming passages for air leaving the liquid pass therebetween before exiting the container. 8. A device according to Claim 2, comprising a passage in the container body through which the air passes before the air reaches the body of liquid. 9. A device according to Claim 2, comprising a liquid compensation chamber in the container body, wherein the body of liquid is contained in a lower portion of said liquid compensation chamber. 10. A method for optimizing fuel consumption and reducing carbon dioxide exhaust emissions in an internal combustion engine having an intake manifold by passing air through a booster container before the air enters the intake manifold, wherein said method comprises: supplying air to a booster container which includes a plurality of deflectors within and attached to the container; passing the air into a body of liquid in the booster container; influencing the air in the liquid by a vacuum created in the intake manifold; forming bubbles of the air in the liquid to stabilize the air influenced by the vacuum; passing the air leaving the liquid under vacuum through passages between the plurality of deflectors in the booster container to stabilize the stream of air; passing the air under vacuum out of the booster container into an intake manifold of the engine. 11. A method according to Claim 10, comprising passing the air around at least one deflector before the air enters the liquid. 12. A method according to Claim 10, comprising passing the air leaving the body of liquid into a liquid compensation chamber. 13. A method according to Claim 10, comprising passing the air leaving the body of liquid through passages formed by a plurality of deflectors spaced away from each other. 14 A method according to Claim 10, comprising passing the air into a body of liquid which is a member, selected from mineral oil, engine oil and methanol.
