A drawback of using a mechanical switch as part of the ignition timing is that it is not very precise, needs regular adjustment of the dwell (contact) angle, and at higher revolutions, its mass becomes significant, leading to poor operation at higher engine speeds.
A single dwell linkage takes advantage of the behavior of a link with a stationary revolute (hinge) or prismatic (sliding) joint and its interaction with special coupler curves. There are two methods of producing a single-dwell: arc-based and linear-based. An arc-based single dwell linkage uses the approximation of a circular arc.
• Adjusts to any desired switch dwell angle from 3° to 357 ° of shaft rotation. • Switch settings infinitely adjustable with respect to shaft. • Switch setting independent of other switches in stack • Switching angles cane be set and locked in seconds • Adjustments can be made while shaft is either stationary or rotating • Only 1 ...
A simple displacement diagram illustrates the follower motion at a constant velocity rise followed by a similar return with a dwell in between as depicted in figure 2. [4] The rise is the motion of the follower away from the cam center, dwell is the motion where the follower is at rest, and return is the motion of the follower toward the cam ...
Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.
Timing light, combination instrument with RPM, volt meter and dwell angle meter. The actual light is on the far end. The black clamp connects to the battery -, the red clamp to +, the green one to the breaker side of the coil (for RPM), the big black clamp in the foreground is an inductive pick-up that clamps around a spark plug wire.
Adjusting the timing between when the transmitter sends a pulse and when the receiver stage is enabled will generally reduce the sunburst without affecting the accuracy of the range, since most sunburst is caused by a diffused transmit pulse reflected before it leaves the antenna.
Valve timing diagram for a 4-stroke engine. With traditional fixed valve timing, an engine will have a period of "valve overlap" at the end of the exhaust stroke, when both the intake and exhaust valves are open.
