摘要:
Squish control is provided in an internal combustion engine such as a diesel engine by providing in a preferred embodiment arcuate dams on the inner faces of rotatable intake and exhaust valves or the like which coact with arcuate grooves or recesses of the piston squish land to direct squish flow from adjacent the valve inner faces into outward inward or circumferential directions and thus increase decrease or provide a swirl component to squish flow into a central combustion chamber recess.

Cylinder intake charge swirl is accentuated by selectively directing flow past swirl generating vanes in the intake port which are closest to the cylinder wall and reducing the flow past swirl generating vanes furthest from the cylinder wall. This may be accomplished by utilizing asymmetrically variable swirl vanes arranged to reduce flow at lower engine loads through passages furthest from the cylinder wall and encourage flow through swirl directed passages closer to the cylinder wall.
摘要:
An engine having piston-controlled cylinder air intake ports into which lubricating oil may be carried during engine operation is fitted with porous liners in the cylinder intake ports which receive the lubricating oil to prevent its being carried by the inlet air into the engine combustion chamber and exhaust system. Collection and return passages are provided to receive oil drained from the porous liners and return it to the engine crankcase and oil sump. A slight flow of pressurized air from the engine air chamber aids the draining and return passage of oil from the porous liners to the crankcase.
摘要:
An exhaust port timing valve for a two cycle engine has a sealing shroud preferably made as a flexible sheet that is urged by gas pressure into sealing contact with a slot and/or sealing edges of an associated exhaust port or shroud to allow low friction valve adjustment while limiting gas leakage past the valve unaffected by close tolerances and temperature changes. Springs and/or seals can alternatively be used with flexible or non-flexible shrouds to improve sealing.
摘要:
A crankcase scavenged two cycle engine has an auxiliary or bypass port above the exhaust and inlet ports to direct blowdown exhaust gas into a plenum or the engine crankcase for later return to the engine cylinder. Loss of fuel-rich blowdown gas to the engine exhaust system is thereby reduced.

An air-assist fuel injection nozzle has an externally actuated needle plunger journaled for axial movement in the cylinder provided in a nozzle body. The needle plunger tip contains a central blind bore which communicates with discharge passages and with a supply passage, the latter, when the needle plunger is in a raised position, communicate with a valve controlled supply passage to receive a metered quantity of liquid fuel. Upon downward movement of the needle plunger a predetermined axial extent, the discharge passages come into flow communication with corresponding discharge orifices provided in the nozzle body. A central pedestal or pin upstanding from the lower closed end of the nozzle body substantially fills the blind bore in the needle plunger during the injection process in order to minimize the total clearance volume.
摘要:
The pressure of the air delivered to an internal combustion engine is measured by sensing the difference between the pressure in the inlet of the engine induction passage and the pressure in an accelerated air flow region of the engine induction passage when the engine throttle is closed.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine is provided with intake ports having transversely intersecting, longitudinally extending, wall defining cellular passages for intake flow. Selective control of both the location and volume of flow are provided by various means such as slidable entrance valves or an adjustable connecting manifold. In the latter case, movement of the manifold may variably control the flow of either air-fuel mixture or air through the various cellular passages in the respective intake ports.
摘要:
Adjustable swirl developing vane means are provided in the outlet end portions of the intake ports of an internal combustion engine adjacent the intake valve heads to provide variable swirl of cylinder intake charges through adjustment of the vane positions. Both rigid and flexible adjustable vane arrangements are disclosed as are various means for positioning the vanes.
摘要:
A variable spray direction fuel injection nozzle includes a cylindrical nozzle body having a stepped bore therein defining at one end a first cavity and a second cavity of reduced size terminating at a closed end wall at the opposite end of the nozzle body, the nozzle body further having a fuel inlet in communication with the first cavity, the wall of the nozzle body being provided with a radial through spray orifice extending into the second cavity closely adjacent to the end wall, a cup-shaped, cylindrical valve open at one end being slidably mounted within the second cavity with its open end opening into the first cavity, the valve adjacent to its closed end being provided with a radially extending through slot, the valve being angularly fixed relative to the nozzle body so that the slot in the valve is in angular alignment with the spray orifice in the nozzle body, a spring being positioned within the nozzle body to normally bias the valve in an axial direction relative to the nozzle body whereby the slot in the valve is out of registry with the spray orifice in the nozzle body, but when the pressure of fuel supplied to the first cavity of the nozzle body acting on the valve is sufficient to overcome the biasing action of the spring, the valve will be moved axially within the nozzle body to bring the slot in the valve into registry with the spray orifice in the nozzle body whereby fuel can be discharged out through the spray orifice, a fuel bleed passage opening at one end into the second cavity being provided to control the egress of fuel from a chamber defined in this cavity between the end wall of the nozzle body and the closed end of the valve.
