Fuel injection device
First Claim
1. A method for injecting fuel with a fuel injection device comprising:
- a solenoid valve for injecting fuel into an intake passage of an engine, the solenoid valve being opened as a result of a drive current being applied to a coil, and fuel being injected into the intake passage of the engine at a predetermined timing during the rotation period of the engine, andan alternating-current generator having an electromotive coil at a predetermined position on an external periphery of a flywheel disposed on an engine shaft of the engine and provided with a magnet in an area along the edge, the alternating-current generator generating electricity by the rotation of the engine and outputting a predetermined signal, the electromotive coil is disposed at a predetermined position along the external periphery of the flywheel in a crank angle position at which an output is generated in synchronization with the intake timing of the engine used, the signal is an injection command signal applied to the solenoid valve as an alternating-current drive current, and the applied voltage increases with increased engine speed;
the method comprising the steps of;
generating a predetermined signal as a function of the rotation of an engine with the alternating-current generator, andinjecting fuel from the solenoid valve into an intake passage of the engine at a predetermined timing during the rotation period of the engine in response to the predetermined signal.

Abstract
A fuel injection device comprising electricity-generating means generating electricity by rotation of an engine and outputting a predetermined signal, and a solenoid valve injecting fuel; the valve being opened as a result of a drive current applied to a coil, and the fuel being injected into an intake passage of the engine at a predetermined timing during the rotation of the engine; to ensure that the flow rate required during high-speed operation ca be adequately provided in a fuel injection device for injecting/supplying fuel to an engine. The electricity-generating means is an alternating current generation means attached to the engine in a crank angle position at which an output is generated in synchronization with the intake timing of the engine; the signal is an injection command signal applied to the solenoid valve as an alternating-current drive current; and the applied voltage increases with increased engine speed.
