SINGLE-CHAMBER MULTI-CYLINDER INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH OPPOSITELY MOVING PISTONS

摘要

The invention relates to internal combustion engines and can be used in transport vehicles for actuating electric power plants. Said invention makes it possible to extend the adjusting capabilities of an engine. The inventive internal combustion engine comprises a common combustion chamber with bypass channels, which are provided with check valves, and cylinders with pistons having their own cranking mechanism. A supercharger comprises automatic inlet check valves with their own cranking mechanism. Each piston is connected to its own cranking mechanism, the cranking mechanisms of the working pistons being kinematically coupled to each other in series or in parallel via a device for changing phases therebetween. The supercharger is connected to the combustion chamber by means of one or more bypass channels. The piston of the supercharger is actuated by the cranking mechanism thereof connected to said piston. The cranking mechanism of the supercharger is connected to the cranking mechanism of one of the working pistons via the phase changing device.
