Two-stroke internal combustion engine

摘要

It is intended to effectively prevent blow-by with no need for large changes in typical structures of two-cycle internal combustion engines. A main scavenging passage (24) for supplying air-fuel mixture from a crankcase to a combustion chamber for scavenging purposes has a branch scavenging passage (26) that extends upward aslant toward an intake port (14). The main scavenging passage (24) communicates with a first scavenging port (20) located nearer to an exhaust port (16). The branch scavenging passage (26) communicates with a second scavenging port (22). A mean cross-sectional area of the branch scavenging passage (26) is smaller than that of the main scavenging passage (24). Cross-sectional area of a portion (24b) next to an inlet port (24a) of the main scavenging passage (24) opening to the crankcase is smaller than the sum of cross-sectional areas of the first and second scavenging ports (20, 22).

主权项

1. A two-stroke internal combustion engine configured to expel burnt gas externally of a combustion chamber through an exhaust port while introducing air-fuel mixture into the combustion chamber from a crankcase through scavenging passages,
first scavenging ports opening to said combustion chamber and oriented away from said exhaust port; main scavenging passages each having a length from its inlet port opening to said crankcase up to each said first scavenging port and making communication between each said first scavenging port and said crankcase; second scavenging ports opening to said combustion chamber at positions remoter from said exhaust port than said first scavenging ports respectively, and oriented away from said exhaust port; and a branch scavenging passage branched from each said main scavenging passage and extending aslant away from said exhaust port up to each said second scavenging port, wherein said branch scavenging passage has a cross-sectional area, at all locations within said branch scavenging passage, which is smaller than a cross-sectional area of each said main scavenging passage taken at any position thereof from each said main scavenging passage's inlet port opening to said crankcase up to each said first scavenging port, wherein said branch scavenging passage has a mean cross-sectional area smaller than a mean cross-sectional area of each said main scavenging passages passage, and wherein each said first scavenging port and each said second scavenging port have opening areas which are in total larger than a cross-sectional area of each said main scavenging passage at an inlet portion thereof next to said crankcase.
