PERFECCIONAMIENTOS INTRODUCIDOS EN MOTORES DE COMBUSTION INTERNA.

摘要

An intake and exhaust system is provided for internal combustion engines of the type which employ a main combustion chamber and an auxiliary chamber in communication therewith through a torch nozzle; the main chamber having a valve controlled lean mixture inlet and a valve controlled exhaust outlet; the auxiliary chamber having a valve controlled rich mixture inlet and a spark plug; an intake pipe adapted to conduct a rich mixture to the auxiliary chamber and an exhaust pipe adapted to conduct heated exhaust gasses from the main chamber; the pipes having portions sharing a common heat transferring partition wall to provide a region in which heat is transferred from the exhaust pipe to the rich mixture pipe to heat the rich mixture passing therein; the pipes having portions between the heat exchange region and the main and auxiliary chambers which are separated from each other and joined to the engine in a manner to minimize stress due to temperature change; the pipes being encased in a common housing to provide encompassing heat insulation.
