    Abstract: An internal combustion engine 10 comprises a cylinder 12 including a combustion chamber 17 having at least two air input ports 31, 51 and a piston 18 movable in cylinder 12 so as to vary the volume of combustion chamber 17. An air supply system 20 for supplying combustion air to cylinder 12 comprises first and second air intake systems 30, 50, each including an air passage 33, 53 and a valve 40, 60 controlling air passage through their respective port 31, 51. Each valve is controlled such that second valve 60 is open longer than first valve 40. An air flow valve controller 72 responsive to engine speed and air pressure downstream of a throttle valve 24 moves a valve 81 in second passageway 53 to permit greater air flow through second air passage 53 at higher engine speed and at air pressure less than steady state air pressure for the engine speed.

    Abstract: A reciprocating piston internal combustion engine has at least one cylinder with a spark plug and at least one piston reciprocating within the at least one cylinder. At least one first intake duct having a mouth connected to the cylinder and a valve seat located at the mouth is provided. At least one first intake valve resting at the valve seat in a closing position of the intake valve is provided. A control device controls the lift action of the first intake valve. The first intake valve is designed such that, in flow direction of the fuel into the cylinder, for short lifts of the first intake valve a flow cross-section of the first intake duct into the cylinder at the mouth is throttled in a throttle area extending at least over an angular distance about a central axis of the first intake valve such that for small valve lifts a directed inflow with increased velocity results. Alternatively, the intake duct has a wall portion extending downstream of the valve seat in the flow direction that is designed so as to provide a throttle area extending at least over an angular distance about a central axis of the first intake valve such that for small valve lifts a directed inflow with increased velocity results.

    Abstract: A number of embodiments of induction systems for internal combustion engines having fuel injector which spray fuel into the intake passages serving the individual combustion chambers. An arrangement is provided for injecting auxiliary air into the intake passages at atmospheric pressure. The timing and duration of air injection is varied so as to reduce pumping losses, control internal EGR, induce turbulence in the combustion chamber, control idle speed and to atomize the fuel injected by the fuel injectors, and, if desired, redirect it. Various valving and timing arrangements are disclosed whereby the duration and timing of the air injection can be controlled. In addition, embodiments are disclosed having insert pieces through which the fuel is injected and redirected by the air injected.

    Abstract: An engine which employs a cam follower mechanism to reduce wear and reduce the size of an assembled engine. The cam follower mechanism utilizes guide rails located to reduce side thrust on the valve stem. The engine employs a high speed quill shaft to synchronize independent cam shafts existing in each of a plurality of interconnected engines. The engine is assembled using a single size fastener to provide a uniform stress gradient within the engine. The engines are interconnected utilizing O-ring seals. The engine provides a piston crown utilizing a connecting rod directly connected to the bottom surface of the piston crown. The piston crown is stabilized along the longitudinal cylinder axis by a rail guide. Connecting rods are provided which require less than one hundred eighty degrees (180.degree.) circumference of a crankshaft pin for support so that a plurality of connecting rods can be associated with a single crankshaft pin. A tabbed bearing fits under the plurality of connecting rods to provide lubrication between the connecting rods and the crankshaft pin. Connecting rods are held to the crankshaft pin by a circular retaining ring. The engine provides a separate cylinder head and cylinder which are attached via a circular deformable retaining band to form a metal to metal seal. The engine provides an independent lubrication system in each engine. Coolant or lubricant is provided to each engine in parallel so that the temperature of the coolant entering each engine is the same. A large diameter modular crankshaft is provided.

    Abstract: A number of embodiments of single overhead camshaft five valve per cylinder internal combustion engines. The camshaft and valve operating mechanism is designed so as to permit a compact assembly by placing the camshaft outwardly of the area between the valves. Both direct and rocker arm valve actuation embodiments are disclosed although in the direct valve operating arrangement, rocker arms are employed for operating some of the valves. The valve and bearing arrangement for the camshaft permits the cam lobes to be positioned closely adjacent each other to maintain compactness of the engine design. In all embodiments, a central spark plug position is accommodated and the spark plug extends generally parallel to the axis of the associated cylinder bore.
