How is the Weber carburetor designed?

Each Soviet car was equipped with one of three carburetors. It was Ozone, Solex, and Weber. Now the domestic auto industry, although it does not produce cars with a carburetor type of power, they still have a huge assortment of spare parts. And today we want to pay attention to the oldest of the three mechanisms - Weber.

In fact, the main function of all these details for decades has remained unchanged. Weber's carburetor, like everyone else, mixed fuel with air, thereby preparing a combustible mixture for its further supply to the engine chamber. There, it completely burned down, with its compression force it moved the pistons, and then, accordingly, the power was transmitted to the drive wheels. A working Weber-2101-07 carburetor prepared a mixture that was evenly distributed across all four engine cylinders.

In the world there are only three types of these devices. This is a bubbler, which is now practically not used, needle-shaped (the same) and float-operated, which is still recognized by domestic car owners. Weber’s carburetor belongs to him.

Device

Weber's carburetor consists of parts such as:

  1. Float.
  2. The axis of the float.
  3. Inlet strainer.
  4. Carburetor cover and gasket.

  5. Needle valve.
  6. Jet idle.
  7. Screw "quality."
  8. Two way valve.
  9. Fluid heater.
  10. Throttle retaining screw.
  11. The main fuel jet.
  12. Jet of additional fuel.
  13. Vacuum fitting.
  14. Air jet.
  15. Diaphragm.
  16. Throttle
  17. Electric heater.
  18. Electrical connector.
  19. Thermally insulated block.
  20. Small diffuser.
  21. Solenoid valve idling.
  22. Diaphragm and spray pump booster.
  23. Vacuum fitting.
  24. Idle air valve.
  25. Emulsion tube.
  26. Econostat.
  27. Bimetal spring.

All these details are included in the main (main) carburetor body. Visually, it can be divided into three parts. The first is the cover, the second is the case itself, in which all these elements are present, the third is the throttle body.

a brief description of

Weber's carburetor consists of one camera, the flow is vertical. The trigger system is semi-automatic, the axis of the shutter is made of durable steel. The nozzles and emulsion tubes are made of bronze. Pump sprays are injection molded. On early carburetors, a conventional idle speed screw was used. Over time, this function began to perform air adjustable valve.

Weber carburetor on VAZ

Interesting fact

This device was actually invented by the Italian inventor Weber, but for the most part it was used on domestic cars (the Weber carburetor was mainly installed on the VAZ). Solex, which was constructed on its basis, is considered to be the successor of this mechanism. Solex is considered more complex in design and more modern.

Conclusion

So, we found out what the structure of the Italian Weber carburetor is, we learned its design and functions.
