Wrist pin lubrication system for two-cycle engines

摘要

A wrist pin lubricating system for a multi-cylinder two-cycle engine comprises a passage system for collecting and distributing crankcase condensate to the piston wrist pin bearings. A slot in each piston skirt provides continuous communication between each wrist pin bearing and a passage in the cylinder wall delivering condensate from the engine crankcases. The condensate is collected at the low point of each crankcase and is pumped to the wrist pin bearings by the pressure differential between two crankcases. Check valves are provided in the passages to maintain a directional flow of the condensate.
