Abstract

The present invention provides an internal shape of a rotor for a two-bore rotary carburetor used in a stratified scavenging engine whereby an engine for a power saw, lawn mower, or the like can be stabilized in the course of a complete change in orientation during idling. A groove pocket (10) in communication with a fuel supply-side bore (8) is formed at the aperture edge of each of the upstream end and the downstream end of a carburetor rotor valve (6) toward an accelerated rotation direction in the fuel supply-side bore (8) of the rotor valve (6). The groove pocket (10) is shaped so as to gradually rise and decrease in cross-sectional surface area toward the accelerated rotation direction along a peripheral surface of the rotor valve (6). The resulting structure is one in which the groove pocket (10) is initially superposed with the mixing channel during horizontal rotation of the rotor valve (6), the fuel supply-side bore (8) and the mixing channel are in communication with each other, and the fuel supply-side bore (8) opens before the air supply-side bore (7) does.
