INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

An internal combustion engine including a pre-chamber connected to a pre-chamber feed conduit for supplying the pre-chamber with a fuel (F), and a main combustion chamber. Fuel (F) in the main combustion chamber can be ignited by an ignition flare which passes from the at least one pre-chamber into the at least one main combustion chamber and which is produced by ignition of fuel (F) in the pre-chamber. At least one valve can be open-loop or closed-loop controlled by an open-loop or closed-loop control device depending on a parameter characteristic of a change in a power produced by the internal combustion engine, and/or by which a pre-chamber fuel flow directed through the pre-chamber feed conduit to the at least one pre-chamber can be at least partially diverted into a volume separate from the at least one pre-chamber.

1. An internal combustion engine comprising
at least one pre-chamber connected to a pre-chamber feed conduit for supplying the pre-chamber with a fuel (F), and at least one main combustion chamber wherein fuel (F) in the main combustion chamber can be ignited by an ignition flare which passes from the at least one pre-chamber into the at least one main combustion chamber and which is produced by ignition of fuel (F) in the pre-chamber, wherein provided at the pre-chamber feed conduit for reducing a pressure difference between a pre-chamber gas feed and the at least one main combustion chamber is at least one valve which can be open-loop or closed-loop controlled by means of an open-loop or closed-loop control device in dependence on a parameter characteristic of a change in a power produced by the internal combustion engine, and/or by means of which a pre-chamber fuel flow directed through the pre-chamber feed conduit to the at least one pre-chamber can be at least partially diverted into a volume separate from the at least one pre-chamber.
