current preferred embodiment . however the carburetor may utilize two fuel bowl and two metering assemblies and a divider in the booster assembly for even more fuel flow control over the engines demands . with reference to the drawing figures generally , and particularly to fig1 which may illustrate a carburetor main body which may include the single barrel main body assembly 24 for use in powered engines and may include a base member 101 to mount the main body assembly 24 and a front surface 105 which may be connected to opposing side surfaces 109 which may be connected to a back surface 107 which may be opposed to the front surface 105 . a top surface 111 may be connected to the front surface 105 , the opposing side surfaces 109 and the back surface 107 and may extend radially from the front surface 105 , the opposing side surfaces 109 and the back surface 107 . the carburetor 100 ( shown in fig3 ) may include a single main body 24 , a single throttle shaft 20 , a single throttle blade 21 ( as shown on fig2 ), a first booster 22 and second booster 23 . the carburetor 100 ( shown in fig3 ) may include a fuel bowl sub assembly 113 and described in for example u . s . pat . no . 4 , 034 , 026 incorporated by reference in its entirety or any other appropriate fuel bowl sub assembly and may include a fuel metering body 115 which may be described for example in u . s . pat . no . 5 , 591 , 383 incorporated by reference in its entirety or other appropriate fuel metering body . other designs may be employed with the carburetor 100 . the fuel bowl assembly 113 and described in u . s . pat . no . 4 , 034 , 026 stores the fuel prior to delivery to fuel metering body 115 ( metering block ) assembly . the fuel metering body 115 as described in u . s . pat . no . 5 , 591 , 383 includes a series of hydraulic and gaseous communication passages which control the fuel delivery to the carburetor 100 as a result of the throttle position and engine operating vacuum of the vehicle which may contain the carburetor 100 . the main body assembly 24 may include among other components , the venturi 28 ( shown in fig2 ) and throttle blade / valve 21 ( shown in fig2 ) which are responsive to the throttle position and engine operating vacuum . the air to fuel mixture as a result of the throttle position and engine operating vacuum exit out the bottom of the main body 24 through a bottom surface aperture 28 which may be defined by the bottom surface 117 ( shown on fig4 ) which may be connected to the front surface 105 , the back surface 107 and the opposing side surfaces 109 ( shown on fig2 ). this is a main body communication passage through which the air / fuel mixture is delivered to the internal combustion engine ( not shown ). of course , within each of these respective sub assemblies are individual components , which collectively contribute to the fuel delivery to the internal combustion engine . these sub assembly components are discussed in more detail below and in the u . s . patent information . likewise , other external linkages and components are associated with these sub assemblies . briefly explaining these sub assemblies 113 , 115 , the fuel bowl assembly 113 is the portion of the carburetor 100 where fuel is delivered from fuel tank ( not shown ) and is stored prior to delivery to metering block assembly 115 . the fuel bowl assembly 113 includes a tub body or storage area for storing fuel from the fuel tank . the fuel bowl assembly 113 may be fastened to the main body 24 and may be affixed to the main body 24 by appropriate fasteners and gaskets for connection to fastener threaded mounting holes or other appropriate fastening devices . the fuel bowl 113 may be connected by “ sandwiching ” the fuel metering body 115 ( metering block ) as it is affixed to the main body 24 by the fasteners . a pump diaphragm cover assembly 121 and pumping arm 120 located on the fuel bowl assembly 113 as illustrated in fig3 is operated by an external lever 131 which cooperates with a pump cam 133 which rotates with the throttle shaft 20 which cooperates with the main body accelerator passage inlet 17 ( shown on fig1 ) formed in the front surface 105 and the accelerator passage outlet 18 formed in the front surface 105 . in other words , upon quick acceleration or engine revving , rotation of the throttle shaft 20 activates the pump diaphragm cover assembly 121 to provide a surge of raw fuel to the carburetor 100 so that the engine does not suffer due to an inadequate fuel supply . the fuel metering body assembly 115 ( metering block ) is positioned between the main body assembly 24 and the fuel bowl assembly 113 . the fuel metering body assembly 115 ( metering block ) includes a plate - like structure having several fluid circuits formed therein . among other things , the fuel metering body assembly 115 conducts fuel , assists in the regulation of the aspiration of the fuel , and assists in control of the distribution of the fuel in response to the pressure gradients created in the main body assembly 24 , first and second booster fluid passages 1 , 2 as shown in fig1 . engine &# 39 ; s have different fuel requirements during different phases of operation , e . g ., start - up , idle , acceleration , and normal cruising operation . but on an even more fundamental level , individual cylinders of an engine have different fuel demands . fuel must be distributed to different locations in the main body passages in different air / fuel ratios and air / fuel ratio curves as rpms and engine loads change . for this reason , the invention of the preferred embodiments employs a metering block for each quadrant that is equipped with multiple fuel channels , multiple emulsion channels and multiple jetting ports that connect to the main body assembly 24 . furthermore , individual cylinders of an engine typically have slightly different operating conditions . for instance , in a typical “ v ” shaped engine , the cylinders are required to draw from the single carburetor to the left and to the right , both longitudinally and latitudinally with respect to the other cylinder . in other words , one cylinder is positioned ahead of the other and to the side of another . as incoming air flows past a cylinder often another cylinder cuts off this flow of air and or fuel and redirects it towards itself . this air or fuel ( depending on the blend percentage that is traveling in that manifold section at that point ) is stolen or redirected by one cylinder intended for another . creating either a leaner or richer condition for either cylinder than is optimal and this changes as engine rpms change . also , we have discovered that as the single barrel design was enlarged to feed a higher horsepower engine and a much larger throttle blade was employed to increase the carburetor flow capability , uneven part throttle fuel distribution was much greater and needed to be corrected . consequently , this led to the need for true quadrant tuning of the single venturi . what was discovered was , more fuel would be drawn into rear the engine during part throttle operation . so the fuel curve at lower rpms ( lower air flow rates ) needs to be leaner as it delivers fuel to the rear quadrants of the venture and then as the blade is opened fully , this rear quadrant needs to revert back to a more typical air to fuel ratio / fuel curve program that a four barrel design employs . this part throttle issue is an exclusive issue with large single blade carburetor designs and has previously not been addressed . the modular design with truly independent multiple emulsion systems for each quadrant allows the design to be capable of correcting for not only different air to fuel ratio demands in different quadrants of the single barrel , but more importantly it allows for different air to fuel ratio &# 39 ; s to be supplied to the different quadrants of the single venture at different air speed rates and varying throttle positions . this is something prior art was not capable of achieving and there is a distinct need to correct these conditions for proper operation of these larger single barrel designs . this same preferred embodiment can be used in a dual format on a multi cylinder engine for even more control over the engines needs . to address these different conditions and demands , the carburetor of the present invention provides for separate sections or quadrants which are individually tunable . each section or quadrant may include a dedicated circuit which may be tuned individually . the number of sections or quadrants can be varied in accordance with the teachings of the present invention there could be two sections or quadrants , three sections or quadrants four sections or quadrants or any other number of sections or quadrants such provides each quadrant of the single barrel of the carburetor with several dedicated fuel circuits . the present invention will be explained with respect to four sections or quadrants ; however , other numbers are within the scope of the present invention . each of these circuits is individually “ tunable ”. in other words , the fuel delivery and the air to fuel to ratio curve that the engine requires for optimal operation can be independently adjusted in this single venturi , to correct for different operating conditions and engine needs . current single barrel carburetor designs do not offer this option and previous designs with smaller throttle blades have typically not required these options . prior art only offered air to fuel ratio changes utilizing the same fuel ratio curve for the booster it supplied through its ports . it did not allow for individual air to fuel ratio curve tailoring to control this ratio under varying loads , throttle blade positions and rpm ranges . consequently , the single barrel carburetor of the preferred embodiments allows the fuel delivery rate to be optimized for each of quadrant of the single barrel to assist in correcting these varying operating conditions an engine encounters as well as correcting for varying throttle blade opening positions and varying engine load rates . now , with particular reference to quadrant tuning the single barrel with the fuel metering assemblies 115 and boosters 26 ( shown on fig2 ). these are defined by their implementation into the main body 24 . the fuel metering body assembly 115 and the boosters 26 are designed and implemented to serve each respective quadrant of the single barrel and are defined by the main body 24 , the boosters 26 , and the fuel metering body assemblies 115 ( metering blocks ). each of these components , boosters 26 and metering blocks 115 , serves a respective quadrant of the single barrel . each section or quadrant of the single barrel in the main body is served by three fluid circuits , namely , an “ idle circuit ”, a “ transfer circuit ” and a “ main circuit ” ( described below ). the separate circuits permit tuning and calibration of each quadrant of the carburetor independently in response to the specific needs of that quadrant of the engine . the “ circuits ” are a combination of channels , air bleeds , and passages for properly mixing and directing the air and fuel . while the circuit may be described with respect to the front surface 105 , an opposing circuit is formed with respect to the back surface 107 which substantially mirrors the circuits of the front surface 105 . the “ idle circuit ” first passageway extends from the first inlet port 7 formed in the front surface 105 and extends to the first outlet port 7 b formed in the upper bottom surface 117 and a second passageway which extends from the second inlet port 4 formed in the front surface 105 ( shown on fig2 ) to the second outlet 4 b that mirrors 7 and 7 b in design and scope . these ports exit out the bottom of the upper bottom surface 117 to form a portion of the “ idle circuit ” that communicates with the metering block 115 and this fuel / air mixture is subsequently directed through these passageways . these same passages are also formed on the opposite side of the main body ) as it is symmetrical / mirrored in design . the “ idle circuit ” is the circuit through which the bulk of the low rpm ( revolutions per minute ) of engine speed fuel is supplied during idling conditions of the engine . fuel is drawn through idle passages in the main body by the vacuum created as an example at the outlet port 4 b , 7 b ( and symmetrically on the opposing and opposite side of the main body ). these exits ( one of which is 7 b ) open downstream of the main body throttle plate 21 . during low engine rpm operating conditions , the main body throttle plate 21 is substantially closed . consequently , a relatively large vacuum is generated on the downstream side of the throttle plate 21 . inlet port ( 4 - 7 ) draw fuel from the metering block and are influenced by this vacuum . specifically , as a result of the vacuum , fuel is drawn through the metering body ( metering block 115 ) which in turn draws fuel from the fuel bowl 113 into the first and second inlet ports 4 and 7 , whereupon the fuel enters the fluid passages connecting the first and second inlet ports 4 , and to the first and second outlet ports as shown as 4 and 7 and 4 b and 7 b ( also symmetrically mounted on the opposite passage location on the opposite side of the main body ) and then downstream to exit below the main body throttle plate 21 and ultimately into the engine . this fuel is the main fuel supply to power the engine during low rpm operating conditions , e . g ., during idling . a first idle air bleed passage may be defined by a first air bleed inlet port 9 , 15 and the first air bleed outlet port 10 , 16 ; a second hi speed air bleed passage may be defined by a second air bleed inlet port 11 , 13 and the second air bleed outlet port 12 , 14 ; the first and second air bleed passages are formed in the main body assembly 24 and are mirrored on the opposing side of the main body 24 . these air bleed passages may be connected with channels that ultimately connect to the metering block 115 to assist in controlling and aspirating the fuel . the air bleed passages formed in the main body assembly 24 ( these same passages also formed on the opposite side of the main body , as it is symmetrical in design .) permit selective adjustment of the idle operating conditions and main booster fuel delivery operating conditions by virtue of interchangeable air bleed passages corresponding to air bleed inlet ports 9 , 15 and 11 and 13 as associated with the inlet side of main body assembly 24 . the “ idle circuit ” air bleed passages which correspond to the air bleed inlet ports 9 and 15 denote their mounting location ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). the distal end of the respective air bleed passages for the “ idle circuit ”, which is also formed in the main body assembly 24 additionally corresponds to the air bleed outlet ports 10 and 16 ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). these air bleed passages transport air to assist in controlling the aspiration of fuel in the metering block 115 as the block 115 simultaneously communicates with engine vacuum to the first inlet port 4 and the second inlet port 7 , this simultaneous communication results in a transfer of fuel to the idle first and second passageways defined by the first inlet port 4 and the second inlet port 7 passages ( shown on fig1 ), and the first transfer passageway which may be defined by the third inlet port 6 and the third outlet port 6 b ( shown on fig4 and fig2 ) and the second transfer passageway 5 and 5 b ( shown on fig2 ) which symmetrically opposes the port location and is mirrored on the opposite side of the main body 24 . the idle air bleed passageways may be interchangeable for fine - tuning the amount of the air bled off during “ idle and transfer circuit ” operation . when increased air flow or power is demanded , the throttle shaft is rotated in a more open position , which further opens throttle plate 21 . this further opening of throttle plate 21 initiates fuel delivery through the “ transfer circuit .” the “ transfer circuit ” serves as a transition circuit between idling and booster operation . the “ transfer circuit ” thus supplies additional and more immediate fuel to smooth the transition from fully closed to more fully open as the engine rpms are increased . the “ transfer circuit ” may be a vertical slot cut or a series of holes cut in the outlet area of port 5 and 6 of the single barrel to expose an port exit 8 into the venturi area 28 . the transfer holes are inline of the passage and are exposing the first transfer passageway defined by transfer port 5 and transfer port 5 b and the transfer passageway defined by transfer port 6 and transfer port 6 b ( also mirrored on the opposite side of the main body ) to discharge port vacuum when the throttle blade is lightly and even fully opened . this fuel operates as an intermediate fuel delivery circuit as throttle plate 21 is opened . in other words , beyond a certain throttle opening , the idle circuit does not contribute enough fuel to the engine for stable operation . however , the negative pressure developed in the single barrel ( the main passageway through main body assembly 28 ) is not sufficient to activate the boosters 22 , 23 ( shown on fig1 ). consequently , the transfer circuit activates and short circuits the mixture screw controlled idle circuit and delivers an increased amount of fuel from this newly exposed circuit when the blade is lightly or fully opened . this circuit continues operating until and even after the negative pressure in the boosters 22 , 23 is sufficient to initiate fuel delivery . now , turning to the “ main circuit ”, each of the two fuel metering blocks 115 respectively serves each half of the two boosters , 22 and 23 . each booster 22 , 23 is divided into two sections . each end of the booster tube 22 and 23 may include a axial center aperture 137 which may extend to a point so that the center aperture 137 and the opposing center aperture 137 are not connected , and the center aperture may be formed by drilling lengthwise down its center , it is drilled down its center at a distance that is slightly less than half of its entire length , this to form a primary and secondary divider in the booster to allow fuel to travel down the center aperture 137 and may be expelled by a radial aperture 139 ( shown on fig2 ) which may extend from the center aperture 137 to the surface of the booster 22 , 23 so that each of the quadrants of the single barrel may be individually supplied with fuel from the booster 22 , 23 . this division of the booster , the idle , the transfer circuits and subsequent employment of a modular metering block and fuel bowl configuration allows truly independent single barrel quadrant tuning capability . each fuel metering block is equipped with main booster jetting circuits or apertures that supply metered fuel to each half of each booster it supplies . this fuel is fed to the booster from the metering block through the aperture 137 . this layout contributes to the effectiveness of quadrant tuning of the single barrels air to fuel ratio . each booster is also equipped with multiple exit apertures that assists to further atomize and these holes can be sized and relocated to properly and more evenly or unevenly ( as required ) distribute the aspirated fuel as it is discharged from the booster into the single barrel of the main body . fig2 illustrates a first quadrant 201 , a second quadrant 203 , a third quadrant 205 , a fourth quadrant 207 which may be individually tunable within a single barrel . the “ main circuit ” also includes a first and second air bleeds passageways defined by air bleed outlet 11 , 13 , ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). the distal end of the first and second air bleed passageways for the “ main circuit ”, which is also formed in the main body assembly 24 , open into air bleed outlet 12 , 14 ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). these channels / first and second air bleed passageway distribute controlled air supplies to assist in controlling the aspiration of fuel in the metering block 115 as the metering block 115 communicates and prior to the transfer of fuel to the main body passages . the high speed air bleed passageways are interchangeable for fine - tuning the amount of the air bled off during “ main circuit ” operation . finally , the top surface 111 of the main body assembly 24 also includes a bowl vent passage ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ) which may be defined by the bowl vent inlet and outlet port 25 , 25 b and an accelerator pump channel which may be defined by an inlet and outlet accelerator pump ports 17 , 18 , also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body . as in fig1 , the main body 24 includes a single barrel opening , two boosters 22 , 23 . these boosters 22 , 23 provide constrictions in the air flow passage which creates a pressure drop . consequently , as the air flows across the boosters at the narrowest area of the single barrel , the air is accelerated , which facilitates the atomization of fuel droplets into the air prior to delivery to the engine &# 39 ; s cylinders . main body 24 has one air induction passage . this air induction passage extends through the main body assembly 24 . each booster fig1 items 22 and 23 are slid into the main body and sealed by a body mounted o - ring , each booster is located by a locating pin 27 . the boosters and associated fluid feed paths are substantially identical , so just like our earlier systems , a description of one will serve to describe both . the booster has a fuel feed passage and atomization apertures 139 . these fuel feed passage and atomization apertures 139 supply fuel to the single barrel of the main body 24 during off idle demand conditions . consequently , by virtue of having outlet ports along the length of the booster , an even distribution of fuel is provided . because the booster is divided in half , quadrant distribution of fuel can be controlled by varying the hole size along the length of the booster as well , to optimize engine requirements . this design in turn provides a more controlled delivery of fuel into the air supply at part throttle operation as well as during wide open throttle operation . during normal cruise conditions , i . e ., when throttle plate 21 is open , air flowing across the boosters 26 creates a pressure drop at the atomization apertures 139 , this communication in the form of a pressure drop is transferred to the booster channel . this same communication is then transferred to the metering block channels . this pressure drop creates a suction effect which tends to draw fuel from the channels of the metering block 115 and the fuel bowl 113 . this fuel is delivered through the atomization apertures 139 on the booster 26 , where the fuel is introduced and aspirated into the engines air supply flowing out through induction passage 28 . as mentioned previously , a pair of boosters 22 , 23 and interchangeable high speed air bleeds 11 , 13 are also provided ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). high speed air bleeds 11 , 13 may be interchanged to fine - tune the performance of the boosters . the high speed air bleeds 11 , 13 are in fluid communication with the metering block through the main body at outlet ports 12 , 14 . the high speed air bleed passage “ short - circuits ” the suction created by boosters to reduce the amount of fuel which would be delivered to the single barrel passage if the air bleeds were not provided . an idle air bleed inlet ports 9 , 15 are also provided . the idle air bleed inlet ports 9 , 15 is also interchangeable to fine - tune the performance of the idle circuit . idle air bleed is in fluid communication with the metering block through the outlet ports 10 and 16 on the main body 24 . the idle air bleed passageway defined by the inlet ports nine , 15 and the outlet ports 10 , 16 also “ short circuits ” the suction created by idle discharge port 4 b . 7 b ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ) to reduce the amount of fuel which would be delivered to idle discharge port 4 b , 7 b ( also symmetrically located on the opposite side of the main body ). a pair of accelerator pump discharge nozzles 118 ( pump squirters ) may be positioned on the top surface 111 of the main body 24 ( also symmetrically mounted on the opposite passage location on the opposite side of the main body ). this accelerator pump discharge nozzle 118 ( pump squirter ) is in fluid communication with the accelerator passageway which may be defined by the inlet and outlet port 17 , 18 . upon demanded acceleration , the throttle shaft 20 is rotated by the operator , this rotates an accelerator pump cam 133 which is affixed to the throttle shaft 131 , which in turn actuates a pump arm assembly 119 which in turn actuates another lever 120 which is located on the accelerator pump housing assembly 121 . this action pumps fluid into the accelerator passage . the fluid in the accelerator passage defined by the inlet port 17 and the outlet port 18 is delivered to the accelerator pump discharge nozzle 118 ( pump squirter ) as raw fuel ( also symmetrically mounted on the opposite passage location on the opposite side of the main body ). although the raw fuel is not aspirated , the quick rotation of the throttle associated with a request for acceleration often does not provide enough time for the fuel to be properly aspirated through either of the three fluid circuits . consequently , the raw fuel allows the engine to accelerate substantially instantaneously in response to the shaft rotation , without the engine bucking or stalling due to an inadequate fuel supply . advantageously , a hold down screw 114 is associated with the accelerator pump discharge nozzle 118 is interchangeable to permit selective adjustment of the fuel delivered upon demanded engine acceleration , again permitting the fine - tuning of the fuel delivery for optimum performance of the engine ( also symmetrically mounted on the opposite passage location on the opposite side of the main body ). the operation of the accelerator pump system is a very standard and well known format incorporating a pump cam and levers . other known use of items that are also only briefly described are : the throttle valve shaft item 20 extends across the induction passage . the throttle plate item 21 is operatively connected to the throttle valve shaft to allow it to operate and is located within the single barrel induction passage . the main body has a ledge upon it to mount a screw to adjust the idle speed as it connects with the throttle valve shaft 20 . the main body has a ledge upon it to allow the throttle valve shaft 20 to have a positive stop position at wide open throttle as will now be appreciated , the single barrel quadrant tunable main body and ultimately this assembly of modular components referred to as carburetor 100 may or may not be an integral part of an engine . in operation : fuel enters the fuel bowl assembly from the fuel tank . the fuel fills the bowl to a predetermined point based on the adjustable float assembly . the engine is primed and started and instantly creates vacuum , outside air is taken into the engine . the air passes into the main body passages and mixes air with fuel to allow the engine to run . the throttle shaft is rotated and air is drawn in and is constricted by the boosters 22 and 23 creating a pressure drop compared to atmospheric pressure and the pressure within the fluid channels of the fuel metering body assembly allow fuel to flow through the boosters . this fuel is then delivered to the engine through the metering block and boosters and the aspirated fuel is mixed with the incoming air through the single barrel after the various air bleeds to emulsify and aspirate the fuel have done their work . the actual path of the fuel through the various metering systems and main body assembly is determined by the phase of the throttle position and engine vacuum created . the mixture is then delivered to the engine &# 39 ; s combustion chambers and power is created inside the engine . while the examples given in the specification and drawings relate to a multi cylinder application , it is noted that the invention can be adapted to single cylinder engines as well as its intended multi cylinder application . this invention has been described in connection with preferred embodiments . these embodiments are intended to be illustrative only . it will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art that modifications may be made to these preferred embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention . without being limited to any theory of operation , it is believed that the provision of a communication path to correct air to fuel ratios in a controllable curve in each quadrant of the single barrel passage provides unique advantages , not the least of which is the increased horsepower and improved engine operation and idle quality which has been observed on a dynamometer and in professionally certified live testing has also been vastly improved over prior art . while the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms , specific embodiments thereof have been shown by way of example in the drawings and are herein described in detail . it should be understood , however , that the description herein of specific embodiments is not intended to limit the invention to the particular forms disclosed .
