Abstract

A device for atomizing the fuel for an internal-combustion engine comprising a fuel pump, an electromagnetic fuel-injection valve connected to said fuel pump, an air-injection port adjoining the injection port of said electromagnetic fuel-injection valve, an electromagnetic air flow-controlling valve connected to said air-injection port, and an air pump for feeding air to said air flow-controlling valve, wherein said air flow-controlling valve is controlled in such a manner that the injection of air from said air-injection port takes place simultaneously with the injection of fuel from said fuel-injection valve, whereby the air pump and the driving circuit thereof are of a comparatively small size and the amount of power necessary for driving the air pump is of comparatively small.
