In shown embodiment, monoblock also be defined for the intake manifold of motor 10 and in the passage some or all.With reference to Fig. 2, intake system comprises the intake manifold 84 on the top 34 that is limited at monoblock.In shown embodiment, intake manifold 84 is general toroidal and concentric with the central axis of motor.In this embodiment, manifold 84 does not form complete ring, has isolated a pair of terminal 85 C shape but form.The manifold of this C shape comprises half one 86 and 87 of a pair of arch, and this is to each all extension between inlet 88 and end 85 separately of half of arch.Half one 86 and 87 each all can 88 reduce gradually downwards from entering the mouth to terminal 85.Half one 86 and 87 each all will suck air and be provided in half firing chamber.In an alternative embodiment, intake manifold forms complete ring, so that end 85 is connected, and fluid can extend along whole ring.This embodiment can provide some advantage.This embodiment can have the cross section that reduces gradually, perhaps can have roughly constant cross section.In another alternate embodiment, manifold 84 can be not integrally formed with monoblock, perhaps is not the part of manifold, its end face for example, and can be shaped as independent part.
With reference to Fig. 4-6 and 9, the fluid that a plurality of suction passages 90 are provided between intake manifold 84 and the suction opening 25 in the closed end 24 of firing chamber 12 is communicated with.Each suction passage 90 from intake manifold 84 roughly inwardly and extend downwardly into the firing chamber.These passages can have shape and the position that is different to go out as shown in the figure.Preferably, fuel injector ports 89 is arranged in each suction passage 90, is used for allowing to add fuel.
With reference to Fig. 6 and 9, a plurality of discharge routes 92 preferably also are integrally formed in the monoblock.Each discharge route 92 provides one of a plurality of discharge apertures 26 in firing chamber 12 to be communicated with the fluid of discharging between port or the manifold.In shown embodiment, discharge manifold 94 (Fig. 1) is not integrally formed with monoblock 30, but is connected to a plurality of discharge ports 96 on the periphery of monoblock.Discharge route and port can have shape and the position that is different from as shown in the figure.
Monoblock 30 preferably also comprises and limits a coolant system that is used for fluid cooled engine 10.In shown embodiment, coolant system comprises first coolant manifold, a plurality of coolant channel and second coolant manifold.Freezing mixture is introduced in the described manifold, flows through passage, flows out by other manifolds.With reference to Fig. 2-10,100 places show first or on coolant manifold, show second or coolant manifold down at 102 places.Each coolant manifold normally the annular and concentric with the axis of motor.Coolant manifold is not complete ring, but has the roughly C shape of isolated end.With reference to Fig. 7, monoblock 30 is shown in the plane of first coolant manifold 100 and cuts open.As shown in the figure, this manifold has inlet or outlet port 104, and this inlet or outlet port 104 are communicated with the C shape path 10 6 that extends between a pair of isolated terminal 108.Port one 04 is roughly in the centre of two ends.As shown in the figure, C shape passage reduces downwards between port one 04 and each end 108 gradually.
Second coolant manifold 102 is similar to first manifold 100, except it turns over roughly 180 degree around the axis of motor.Second manifold has inlet or the outlet port 105 that is communicated with C shape path 10 7.Path 10 7 extends between a pair of isolated end, and port one 05 is roughly in the centre of these two ends.Path 10 7 reduces downwards between port one 05 and each end gradually.Alternatively, one or two in the described manifold can form complete ring and/or can not reduce gradually.
Monoblock also defines a coolant channel, and this coolant channel extends and roughly center on the cylindrical wall and the closed end of firing chamber between manifold.As one of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate, preferably be provided with coolant pump, be used for taking out freezing mixture by the coolant channel pump.
In Figure 11-18, the best shows the freezing mixture stream that passes monoblock 30, and these illustrate " negative space (negativespace) " that wall limited by monoblock 30.Arrow shows flow direction.Enter path 10 6 (Figure 11) in first coolant manifold from the freezing mixture of radiator (not shown).Freezing mixture moves generally radially inwardly to roughly from first coolant manifold and centers on the cylindrical cavity 110 of firing chamber (Figure 12).Be provided with cavity 110 for each chamber in the monoblock 30.Each cavity 110 is communicated with adjacent cavity 110 fluids.Freezing mixture passes cavity 110 and inwardly flows (Figure 13 and 14), then upwards towards flowing around the suction passage 90 of monoblock 30 and the space that discharge route 92 is limited.Freezing mixture pass suck and discharge route between space 112 roughly radially outward move (Figure 15-16).Freezing mixture moves in the path 10 7 second coolant manifold 102 (Figure 17-18) from space 112.Freezing mixture is directed back radiator from second coolant manifold 102, is cooled and is led back to first coolant manifold again at this radiator place freezing mixture, passes monoblock 30 recirculation like that with as above just described.
Though different aspect of the present invention is described at barrel engine, wherein this barrel engine uses monoblock to limit firing chamber, coolant channel and other parts, but those of ordinary skills should be understood that some aspect of the present invention and can be used for traditional non-monoblock engine design.As an example, can be used for by the monoblock or the barrel engine of not constructing by monoblock according to coolant system of the present invention.This coolant system will use the shown mode that has with the coolant manifold of the concentric one or more general toroidal of the longitudinal axis of barrel engine.Embodiment preferred will be provided with the coolant manifold of a pair of general toroidal, and each is roughly concentric with the longitudinal axis of motor to manifold for this.The most preferred embodiment is that coolant channel is c-shaped separately and made that to being changed to the ingress port of a manifold is relative with the outlet port of another manifold.Further preferably, manifold reduces to terminal cross sectional area gradually from port, and reducing gradually and reducing gradually oppositely on another manifold on a manifold.That is to say that the narrow end of a manifold is set to be adjacent to the passage of the broad of another manifold, the port of contiguous this previous manifold of this another manifold, and vice versa.This mode also can be used to have the monoblock design of the cooling channel of the constituent element that is not monoblock.Alternatively, coolant manifold can be set to be attached to one or more optional feature of the remaining part of motor with in the various known ways any one.
As mentioned before, the embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 1 comprise second end that serves as compressor or pressurized machine and the driving shell 120 that described two and half ones are interconnected.Figure 19 illustrates second monoblock 130 that drives shell 120 and limit pressing chamber.Identical with first monoblock, second monoblock 130 can be shaped with molded or casting method, yet should be understood that may need to carry out follow-up grinding or surface treatment operations before monoblock 130 is ready to use.Monoblock 130 comprises the center hole 132 that is used to hold the drive shaft assembly 20 that passes it.Pressing chamber 13 is formed in the monoblock 130.It is integrally formed with monoblock 130 that annular sucks pumping chamber 133.
