So, in the present embodiment, the unilateral cylinder block 2 of internal combustion engine 100 is supported by supporting member 41 by one side Side while press the side with the cylinder block 2 of the unilateral opposite side of internal combustion engine 100 by pressing component 42, thus suppress Cylinder block 2 tilts to the axially distinct direction of cylinder.In addition, suppress because vibrating caused by during the operating of internal combustion engine 100 And cylinder block 2 tilts to the axially distinct direction of cylinder.
In addition, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, in the present embodiment, the configuration as cylinder block travel mechanism 3 will be installed on The guiding wall 40a of one side of the cylinder block short side direction of side supporting member 41 is configured at the other end than connecting member 31 Installation site (position of support 23) by cylinder axial direction upside position, similarly, by be installed on guiding wall 40a by Splenium part 42 is configured at the installation site (position of support 23) of the other end than connecting member 31 by under cylinder axial direction The position of side.In addition, the cylinder block short side direction that the side for turning into opposite with the configuration side of cylinder block travel mechanism 3 will be installed on The guiding wall 40b supporting member 41 of another side be similarly configured at and leaned on than being installed on guiding wall 40b pressing component 42 The position of the downside of cylinder axial direction.On its reason, reference picture 8 is described later.
In addition, as shown in figure 4, in the present embodiment, by relative supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 in cylinder axis Identical height is configured at upwards.That is, the guiding wall 40a for the configuration side for turning into cylinder block travel mechanism 3 supporting will be installed on Part 41 and the pressing component 42 for being installed on the guiding wall 40b as the opposite side in configuration side with cylinder block travel mechanism 3 Identical height is configured at upwards in cylinder axis.In addition, the guiding wall that the configuration side for turning into cylinder block travel mechanism 3 will be installed on 40a pressing component 42 and it is installed on guiding wall 40b's as the opposite side in configuration side with cylinder block travel mechanism 3 Supporting member 41 is configured at identical height upwards in cylinder axis.On its reason, reference picture 9 is described later.
Next, the action of reference picture 5 and Fig. 6 to cylinder block travel mechanism 3 illustrates.
Fig. 5 is that the volume of the combustion chamber 7 when the piston 21 by cylinder block travel mechanism 3, will be made to be located at compression top center is Even if minimum state, mechanical compression ratio are the internal combustion engine 100 of maximum state, with making the dextrorotation of control shaft 30 from the state State of the volume of combustion chamber 7 when making the piston 21 be located at compression top center even if turning the predetermined anglec of rotation for maximum, machine Tool compression ratio is compared the figure shown for the internal combustion engine 100 of the state of minimum.
Fig. 6 is by the internal combustion engine 100 for making mechanical compression ratio for maximum state, with making mechanical compression ratio in the same manner as Fig. 5 The figure shown is compared for the internal combustion engine 100 of the state of minimum, but in order to be readily appreciated that invention, Fig. 6 is schematically Show the figure of cylinder block travel mechanism 3.In addition, Fig. 6 dotted line A is eccentric part 30b when making the control shaft 30 have rotated one week Axle center P4 track.In addition, P5 is the axle center of connecting pin 33.
As shown in fig. 6, in the present embodiment, using the axle center by main shaft part 30a P3's and with cylinder axial direction Parallel parallel lines Q by eccentric part 30b axle center P4 track A zonings into two half-circle areas when, made by actuator 32 It (is in the present embodiment figure that control shaft 30 rotates so that axle center P4 in the half-circle area of any one party to two direction of rotation The half-circle area in middle left side) in the range of moved to two direction of rotation.
Also, cylinder block travel mechanism 3 is configured to, with figure right side make mechanical compression ratio for minimum state compared with, When the making the state that mechanical compression ratio is maximum of left side in figure, eccentric part 30b axle center P4 are located at the downside (vapour of cylinder axial direction The bottom side of cylinder body 2, the i.e. side of bent axle 10).
Thus, for example mechanical compression ratio is set to make control shaft for maximum state, by actuator 32 on the left of from figure 30 when turning clockwise, eccentric part 30b axle center P4 on the A of track towards cylinder axial direction upside (top side of cylinder block 2, That is the side of cylinder cover 5) it is mobile.Thus, it is via the connecting member 31 linked with eccentric part 30b that connecting pin 33 is axial towards cylinder Upside point-blank push to, therefore cylinder block 2 relative to crankcase 1 relatively pushed to cylinder axial direction upside.As a result, it is living The volume of combustion chamber 7 when plug 21 is located at compression top center gradually increases, and mechanical compression ratio tapers into.
On the other hand, mechanical compression ratio is made to make control for minimum state, by actuator 32 such as on the right side of from figure During 30 rotate counterclockwise of axle processed, eccentric part 30b axle center P4 is moved on the A of track towards the downside of cylinder axial direction.Thus, via With connecting member 31 that eccentric part 30b links and connecting pin 33 is point-blank left behind towards the downside of cylinder axial direction, therefore cylinder Body 2 is relatively pulled to the downside of cylinder axial direction relative to crankcase 1.As a result, burning when piston 21 is located at compression top center The volume of room 7 is gradually reduced, and mechanical compression ratio becomes larger.
So, the cylinder block travel mechanism 3 of present embodiment passes through the control that makes to possess main shaft part 30a and eccentric part 30b Axle 30 rotates, and make eccentric part 30b axle center P4 centered on main shaft part 30a axle center P3 on cylinder axis is upward the bottom It is dynamic, cylinder block 2 is moved up and down upwards in cylinder axis from there through the connecting member 31 for being linked to eccentric part 30b.
In addition, in the present embodiment, by the list that such cylinder block travel mechanism 3 is only arranged to internal combustion engine 100 Side, thus suppresses the maximization of internal combustion engine 100, and suppresses the increase of weight.However, only set by cylinder block travel mechanism 3 In the case of the one side for being placed in internal combustion engine 100, the both sides with the cylinder block travel mechanism 3 to be arranged to internal combustion engine 100 Situation is compared, and the cylinder block revolving force that cylinder block 2 to be made rotates to certain direction of rotation during the operating of internal combustion engine 100 be present This increased problem points.Hereinafter, the problem points, reference picture 7 are illustrated.
It (is in this embodiment cylinder block short side to cylinder block travel mechanism 3 to be only arranged to the one side of internal combustion engine 100 that Fig. 7, which is, One side in direction) in the case of the problem of the figure that illustrates of point.In addition, in the figure 7, in order that invention is readily appreciated that and shown Show cylinder block travel mechanism 3 to meaning property.
During the operating of internal combustion engine 100, burnt in the combustion chamber 7 of each cylinder 20, thus it is as shown in fig. 7, right Cylinder cover 5 applies burning load F upward in figure.Now, as in the present embodiment, only match somebody with somebody in the one side of internal combustion engine 100 In the case of putting control shaft 30 and being linked control shaft 30 and cylinder block 2 by connecting member 31, because putting on the combustion of cylinder cover 5 Load F is burnt, mainly produces the cylinder to be turned clockwise centered on the other end of connecting member 31 in the figure of cylinder block 2 to be made Body revolving force.That is, clockwise torque M in figure is produced around axle center P5.
Here, assuming that by cylinder block travel mechanism 3 is arranged at the both sides of internal combustion engine 100, to be for example arranged at cylinder block short In the case of one side of edge direction and another side, produce with along a side of the cylinder block short side direction of internal combustion engine 100 Cylinder block 2 side configuration connecting member 31 the other end centered on, the cylinder that turns clockwise of cylinder block to be made 2 Body revolving force.In addition, in contrast to this, produce with along the cylinder of the another side of the cylinder block short side direction of internal combustion engine 100 Centered on the other end of the connecting member 31 of the side configuration of body 2, the rotation of the cylinder block of the rotate counterclockwise of cylinder block to be made 2 Power.Therefore, the cylinder block revolving force that cylinder block 2 to be made turns clockwise and the cylinder block of the rotate counterclockwise of cylinder block 2 to be made revolve Offset with turning dynamic balance, cylinder block revolving force is not produced in cylinder block 2 on surface.
However, in the case where cylinder block travel mechanism 3 is only arranged at into the one side of internal combustion engine 100, unlike by cylinder block The such cylinder block revolving force of situation that travel mechanism 3 is arranged at both sides is cancelled.Therefore, only set by cylinder block travel mechanism 3 In the case of the one side for being placed in internal combustion engine 100, cylinder block 2 can be applied during the operating of internal combustion engine 100 cylinder block 2 to be made to The cylinder block revolving force of certain direction of rotation rotation, the cylinder block revolving force act on guiding mechanism 4.
Fig. 8 is the supporting member 41 indicated by an arrow that guiding mechanism 4 is acted on during the operating of internal combustion engine 100 and pressing The figure of the power of part 42.
In the example shown in Fig. 8, because of the load F that burns, and what cylinder block 2 to be made turned clockwise is applied to cylinder block 2 Cylinder block revolving force.That is, to be made cylinder block 2 into figure right side inclined power is acted on cylinder block 2.Therefore, as shown in figure 8, closing In the guiding wall 40a of a side of the cylinder block short side direction for being installed on the configuration side as cylinder block travel mechanism 3 supporting Part 41 and pressing component 42, mainly to being installed on the other end than connecting member 31 by the position of the upside of cylinder axial direction Supporting member 41 is acted on because of cylinder block revolving force F1 caused by burning load F.In addition, moved on being installed on to turn into cylinder block The guiding wall 40b of the another side of the cylinder block short side direction of the opposite side in configuration side of mechanism 3 supporting member 41 and press Splenium part 42, mainly the supporting member 41 for being installed on the axial downside of cylinder is acted on because cylinder block caused by burning load F revolves Turn power F1 '.
In addition, during the operating of internal combustion engine 100, because of the inclination of the connecting rod 22 in the reciprocating motion of piston 21, to vapour The power (piston thrust) of the acting cylinder body short side direction of cylinder body 2.Specifically, cylinder block 2 is applied cylinder block 2 from piston 21 Push the piston propulsive thrust F2 of a side of cylinder block short side direction to and cylinder block 2 is pushed to the other end of cylinder block short side direction The piston positive thrust F2 ' of side.Therefore, as shown in figure 8, the guiding wall 40a of a side to being installed on cylinder block short side direction Supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 act on piston propulsive thrust F2.In addition, the another side to being installed on cylinder block short side direction Guiding wall 40b supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 act on piston positive thrust F2 '.
Further, when making cylinder block 2 be moved up in cylinder axis, because of the connecting member 31 of cylinder block travel mechanism 3 Tilt, (travel mechanism propulsive thrust F3 and travel mechanism are just for the power from connecting member 31 to the acting cylinder body short side direction of cylinder block 2 Thrust F3 ').
So, in the present embodiment, in the portion acted on by cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' caused by burning load F Supporting member 41 is put in distribution.Conversely speaking, in the part acted on by cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' caused by burning load F Pressing component 42 is not configured.Hereinafter, its reason is illustrated.
As it was previously stated, in the present embodiment, the unilateral cylinder of internal combustion engine 100 is supported by supporting member 41 by one side The side of body 2, while pressing the side with the cylinder block 2 of the unilateral opposite side of internal combustion engine 100 by pressing component 42, thus Suppress cylinder block 2 to tilt to the axially distinct direction of cylinder.
Now, supporting member 41 is fixed on guiding wall 40a and motionless, but pressing component 42 passes through the pressing force of spring 423 Abutting plate 422 is pressed on to the side of cylinder block 2.Therefore, if applying the power bigger than the pressing force of spring 423 from the side of cylinder block 2, Then being possible to cylinder block 2 can roll tiltedly to pressing component 42.In order to prevent the above situation, as long as the pressing force of increase spring 423 .
However, the pressing force of the spring 423 turns into the power always acted on the side of cylinder block 2, therefore more increase The pressing force of spring 423, the then power that cylinder block 2 is clamped by pressing component 42 and supporting member 41 are bigger.Therefore, cylinder block is made During 2 movement, the resistance of caused cylinder axial direction is (hereinafter referred to as " sliding between supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 and cylinder block Dynamic resistance ") it can increase.
If resistance to sliding increases, make load of the cylinder block 2 when cylinder axis moves up, i.e. for revolving control shaft 30 The driving torque increase turned.Thus, for example in the case where making actuator 32 be motor, electric power consumption increase, as a result can Cause the deterioration of fuel economy.In addition, it is similarly desirable to increase the maximum driving torque of actuator 32, therefore cause actuator 32 Maximization, high capacity, as a result cause the maximization and/or weight increase of internal combustion engine 100.
If here, configure pressing component in the part acted on by cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' caused by burning load F 42, then the pressing component 42 on guiding wall 40a sides by the pressing force of spring 423, it is necessary to be set as cylinder block revolving force F1, work Fill in the pressing force of the propulsive thrust F2 and travel mechanism propulsive thrust F3 above of making a concerted effort.In addition, the press section on guiding wall 40b sides Part 42 by the pressing force of spring 423, it is necessary to be set as that cylinder block revolving force F1 ', piston positive thrust F2 ' and travel mechanism are just pushing away The pressing force of the power F3 ' above of making a concerted effort.That is, if in the portion acted on by cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' caused by burning load F Pressing component 42 is put in distribution, then the power of the above of making a concerted effort of these three power is always carried out from pressing component 42 to the side of cylinder block 2 Effect.
On the other hand, as in the present embodiment, by because of cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' caused by burning load F The part acted on configures supporting member 41 and does not configure pressing component 42, thus, the pressing component on guiding wall 40a sides 42, if by the pressing force of spring 423 be set as piston propulsive thrust F2 and travel mechanism propulsive thrust F3 the two power make a concerted effort with On pressing force.In addition, the pressing component 42 on guiding wall 40b sides, as long as the pressing force of spring 423 is set as living The pressing force of the above of making a concerted effort of the two power of plug positive thrust F2 ' and travel mechanism positive thrust F3 '.
In other words, in the present embodiment, cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' does not act on pressing component 42, therefore can The pressing force of spring 423 is set as to low value corresponding to which.Especially because of cylinder block revolving force F1 caused by burning load F And F1 ' is compared with piston propulsive thrust F2, piston positive thrust F2 ', travel mechanism propulsive thrust F3 and travel mechanism positive thrust F3 ' It is very big, therefore spring can thus be greatly lowered by making cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' not act on pressing component 42 423 pressing force.
By configuring supporting member 41 in the part that cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' are acted in this wise and not configuring pressing Part 42, thus, compared with the situation of the part acted on pressing cylinder block revolving force F1 and F1 ' by pressing component 42, energy Enough reduce the pressing force of the spring 423 of pressing component 42.Therefore, it is possible to reduce make cylinder block 2 when cylinder axis moves up Resistance to sliding.As a result, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of fuel economy and/or the maximization of actuator, high capacity.Therefore, it is possible to Further suppress maximization, the weight increase of internal combustion engine 100.
Referring next to Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B, to relative supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 are configured at upwards in cylinder axis The reason for identical height, illustrates.

As shown in Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B, in cylinder block 2, effect has a pressing force F4 for coming from pressing component 42, and from branch Bearing portion part 41 acts on the counter-force F4 ' (=F4) for having above-mentioned pressing force F4.
Now, as shown in Figure 9 A, relative supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 are being configured at phase upwards in cylinder axis In the case of same height, clockwise torque M1 caused by the center of gravity C because of the pressing force F4 of pressing component 42 around cylinder block 2 Arm of force r1 length, with center of gravity C because of counter-force F4 ' and around cylinder block 2 caused by torque M2 counterclockwise arm of force r2 length Degree turns into equal.Therefore, torque M1 (=F4 × r1) turns into equal with torque M2 (=F4 ' × r2) size, therefore torque M1 Offset with torque M2, do not produce the torque of the center of gravity C around cylinder block 2 on surface.
On the other hand, such as shown in Figure 9 B, relative supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 is upward in cylinder axis In the case of being configured at different height, arm of force r1 length is different from arm of force r2 length.Therefore, in Fig. 9 B example, Torque M1 (=F4 × r1) torque gradient M2 (=F4 ' × r2) greatly, can produce torque around the center of gravity C of cylinder block 2.As a result, because of the power Square and caused power can act on supporting member 41 or pressing component 42, therefore resistance to sliding can increase.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, relative supporting member 41 and pressing component 42 are configured at upwards in cylinder axis Identical height.Thereby, it is possible to prevent the torque of the center of gravity C around cylinder block 2, therefore the increasing of resistance to sliding can be suppressed Add.
