OPPOSED PISTON COMPRESSION IGNITION ENGINE

摘要

A compression ignition engine includes a pair of axially aligned pistons which are reciprocable in a common cylinder and each connected to a crankshaft by a linkage system which includes a rocker beam. Characteristically, it is proposed that a strut by which both the rocker beam fulcrums are separated is formed integrally with engine mounting brackets on which an engine main frame is supported through an interposed layer of resilient or flexible jointing material. Also proposed is a universal joint coupling between each piston rod and its associated rocker beam.
