    摘要: A variable compression ratio internal combustion engine includes a control shaft rotatably supported by an engine body, a variable compression ratio mechanism, an actuator for driving the control shaft, and a speed reducing mechanism for reducing a rotational power of the actuator and for transmitting the speed-reduced power to the control shaft, and structured to have a rotation shaft rotatably supported in a housing fixed to the engine body and a lever that connects the rotation shaft and the control shaft. Located in the engine body is a first regulation part for mechanically regulating the control shaft to a position of maximum rotation on a high compression ratio side. Also located in the housing is a second regulation part for mechanically regulating the rotation shaft to a position of maximum rotation on a low compression ratio side.

    摘要: A variable compression ratio internal combustion engine basically has a main engine body and a variable compression ratio mechanism. A housing is attached to an outside wall of the main engine body to support an actuator. The variable compression ratio mechanism varies an engine compression ratio according to a rotational position of a first control shaft by the actuator. A second control shaft links the actuator to the first control shaft. A bearing includes a pair of split bearing bodies that rotatably holds and supports the second control shaft on the housing. The split bearing body that is farther from the main engine body has higher in rigidity than the housing. The bearing is fixed to the side wall of the main engine body by fixing bolts that pass through both of the split bearing bodies and thread into the side wall of the main engine body.

    摘要: There are provided a variable compression-ratio mechanism (20) capable of varying an engine compression ratio in accordance with a rotational position of a control shaft (24); a speed reducer (44) configured to reduce in speed a rotational power of an actuator and transmit the speed-reduced rotational power to the control shaft (24); and a speed-reducer accommodating case (43) accommodating the speed reducer (44). An input shaft of the speed reducer (44) which is connected to the actuator has a shaft center line extending along a horizontal direction, and at least a part of the input shaft is kept under a lubricating oil retained in the speed-reducer accommodating case (43). The input shaft of the speed reducer (44) is swung by a predetermined swing angle to avoid inadequate lubrication of the input shaft of the speed reducer (44), during an operating state where the engine compression ratio is maintained constant.

    摘要: It is an object to increase the reliability and durability by minimizing mixing/entry of foreign matter (contaminants) into a speed reducer. The speed reducer is provided for reducing rotation of an actuator of a variable compression ratio mechanism and for transmitting the reduced rotation to a control shaft of the variable compression ratio mechanism. The actuator and the speed reducer are attached to a sidewall of an engine main body with a housing therebetween. An oil filter, which removes contaminants from within lubricating oil, is attached to the housing with an oil-passage-forming body therebetween. A portion of the lubricating oil supplied from the oil filter immediately after having been filter-purified is supplied via a bypass oil passage, formed in the oil-passage-forming body and the housing, into a speed-reducer accommodation chamber of the housing.
