Abstract:
An engine includes a crankcase; an oil sump; at least one balancing shaft mounted in a balancing tunnel of the crankcase, which includes first and second end portions and a central portion extending between the end portions; and a blow-by gas recirculation system having an inlet channel communicating with the oil sump, an outlet channel communicating with an intake manifold, a centrifugal separator arranged between said inlet and outlet channels, and a drainage channel opening into the oil sump for discharging separated liquid. The inlet channel communicates with said first end portion, and said centrifugal separator is housed in said second end portion and is driven in rotation by said balancing shaft. The outlet channel communicates with a gas outlet of said centrifugal separator, whereby, during operation, blow-by gas flows successively through the central portion and the centrifugal separator in a path from the inlet to the outlet channel.

Abstract:
An engine includes a cylinder, a rocker chamber, an air filter, a crankcase and an oil return passage, wherein a rocker chamber cover is disposed above the cylinder, a cover plate is disposed at the top of the rocker chamber cover, a separation cavity is disposed between the rocker chamber cover and the cover plate, an oil drain passage is disposed in the separation cavity, and the oil drain passage at least includes partial inner wall of the separation cavity. According to the engine provided by the invention, lubricating oil in the separation cavity can be drained quickly by using the oil drain passage to prevent the lubricating oil in the separation cavity from being pressed into the air filter, thus being capable of decreasing the consumption of the lubricating oil when the engine is working and reducing contaminant emission.
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine may include a cylinder block defining a cylinder, and a crankshaft defining a crankpin, wherein the crankshaft is rotatably received by the cylinder block and rotates about a longitudinal axis. The internal combustion engine may further include a piston configured to reciprocate within the cylinder, and a connecting rod operably coupled to the piston and the crankpin. The connecting rod may include a first rod element having a first distal end and a first proximate end, wherein the first distal end is operably coupled to the piston. The connecting rod may further include a second rod element having a second distal end operably coupled to the first proximate end of the first rod element, and a second proximate end operably coupled to the crankpin, wherein the first rod element and the second rod element are pivotally coupled to one another.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a parallel crank drive (10), particularly for an internal combustion engine (11) having variable compression ratio, having: a first and a second clutch body (20, 21) that can each be connected to a first or second shaft (14, 19); —at least one clutch element (22) rotatably supported on both clutch bodies; —a housing (23) encompassing the clutch bodies and clutch elements. The invention further relates to an internal combustion engine having variable compression ratio, having: a pivotally supported crankshaft (14); —drive shaft (19); —parallel crank drive (10) between the crankshaft and drive shaft; —a housing (23) encompassing the parallel crank drive. The invention further relates to a manual transmission, particularly for an internal combustion engine (11) having variable compression ratio, having: an input shaft (19) that can be connected to a pivotally supported crankshaft (14); the parallel crank drive (10) between the crankshaft and input shaft.
Abstract:
In a cylinder-block for an internal combustion engine with a plurality of cylinders having longitudinal profiled sections in the form of lateral hollow reinforcement structures and vertical sections in the form of profiled reinforcement structures, in the region of a main bearing plane means are provided for supporting a lateral camshaft beneath the upper longitudinal profiled section, and, in the region of the bearing structure for the camshaft the vertical profiled section is divided in two.
Abstract:
A cylinder block assembly for an engine comprises a cylinder block having a sidewall provided with apron attachment points and an apron mountable on the sidewall. The apron is adapted to receive engine components and comprises a tray-like cover which is dimensioned to substantially conform with the side of the cylinder block, thereby avoiding the need to machine the cylinder block to receive engine components. A cylinder block may be customized by the provision of an apron having appropriate components attached to the cylinder block, so that a single cylinder block can be used for a number of different engines.
Abstract:
A multi-piston assembly is illustrated wherein a cylindrical housing (A) is ported through longitudinal circumferentially spaced ports (F) and (G) carried within the cylindrical housing. Porting through piston rods is thus avoided so that their cross section may be reduced thereby increasing the area of the pistons available for contact by pressurized fluid. Even greater force may be made available for actuating a tool by the addition of an add-on unit utilizing complementary longitudinal porting.
Abstract:
A powertrain including an engine and attached power transmission means has a stiffening bracket extending between the side walls of the engine block and the transmission means housing. The bracket extends under and separate from the engine oil pan and has integral ribs depending from a floor and extending longitudinally and diagonally from the power transmission connections to each of the side wall connections to add both bending and torsional stiffness to the powertrain, thus reducing vibration, noise and stress.
