Definitions
- the invention relates to an improved two-stroke engine of the internal combustion type.
- the invention is a novel two-stroke internal combustion engine based on a new engine cycle.
- the engine comprises conventional structure, including a cylinder, a cylinder head, a piston reciprocal within the cylinder, a crankcase, a crank with a piston rod connecting the crank and the piston, an exhaust valve located in the cylinder head, and inlet ports in the wall of the cylinder.
- the improvement results basically from locating the inlet ports in the cylinder wall at a point corresponding approximately to the middle of the piston stroke.
- the cycle of events in the engine cycle are greatly altered and a new two-stroke engine cycle is obtained.
- the inlet ports at the new location divide the cylinder into an upper portion and a lower portion with respect to the piston stroke.
- the new engine improves the scavenging process over that of a conventional two-stroke engine. It also reduces the intake-compression power loss. It provides an engine in which there may be substantial differences in the compression and expansion ratios. It provides a higher expansion ratio for high thermal efficiency. And by providing a lower compression ratio it is possible to limit the maximum pressure and temperature within the cylinder.
- Fig. 1 shows a pressure-volume relationship of the engine of this invention.
- Fig. 2 shows a cross section view through the a centerline of a cylinder of the invention with the piston positioned at the beginning of the expansion period.
- Fig. 3 is a cross section as in Fig. 2 with the piston at the bottom end of the stroke.
- Fig. 4 is a diagram showing the crank angles for the different cycle events. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:
- Fig. 1 the new air cycle is shown by the solid line.
- the cylinder contains air at the pressure and volume indicated at point -a-.
- the air is compressed reversibly and adiabatically to point -b-.
- heat is added at constant volume to increase the pressure to point -c-.
- reversable adiabatic expansion takes place from point -c- to point -d-.
- the air is cooled at a constant volume to point -e- and then at a constant pressure to point -a- to complete the cycle.
- the adiabatic expansion is carried beyond the original volume to obtain a higher expansion ratio than the compression ratio.
- a point -d'- is added to Fig-. 1, with the volume at point -d'- equal to the starting volume at point -a-.
- the cycle a-b-c-d'-a is the well known constant volume cycle for reciprocating spark ignition engines.
- the area d'-d-e-a-d' represents an extra output, of the new cycle to give a higher thermal efficiency. If the engine's exhaust valve closing is advanced, the constant pressure cooling is shortened to point -a'- instead of point -a- to begin the adiabatic compression.
- the additional output:, as Indicated by the dotted line in Fig. 1, is obtained from an increased volume at the beginning of the compression.
- a cylinder -11- of the engine with inlet ports -12- the cylinder having a cylinder liner -26-, cylinder head -22- an exhaust valve -13- located in the cylinder head -22-, a piston -17- reciprocal within the cylinder -11-, a crankcase -16-, a crank shaft -19- mounted in the crankcase -16-, and connected to the piston -17- by a connecting rod -23-.
- a one-way valve -14- such as a reed valve
- the exhaust valve -13- is opened by a suitable valve mechanism and the inlet ports -12- are uncovered by the movement of the piston -17- -to commence the scavenging process which consists of a flow of pressurized gas or air from the crankcase -16- into the cylinder -11-, by way of passage the -18- one-way valve -15- and ports -12- the pressure within the cylinder -11- having been lowered by the opening of the exhaust valve -13- to a pressure lower than that of the gas or air within the crankcase -16-.
- the piston continues to move downward and at this point in its downward motion the piston -17- begins the intake period and at the same time continues to compress the gas or air within the crankcase and to draw the gas or air into the lower portion -24- of the cylinder -11- through the passage -18- through valve 15 and inlet ports -12-. Due to the location of the inlet ports the gas within the upper portion -25- of the cylinder remains substantially undisturbed during this operation.
- the piston -17- moves upward to begin an exhaust period. During this period the piston -17- pushes the air or gas in the lower portion -24- of the cylinder -11- bodily upward to force out the combusted gases remaining in the upper portion -25- of the cylinder -11-. At the same time it draws fresh air or gas into the crankcase -16- through valve -14- in the crankcase wall. The valve -15-functions to prevent backflow from the cylinder -11- into the crankcase -16-.
- a compression period begins.
- the piston continues its upward movement it compresses the air or gas in the upper portion -25- of cylinder -11- while at the same time, it continues to draw air or gas into the crankcase -16- through valve -14-.
- combustion is initiated and the expansion period follows for a complete engine cycle.
- the new cycle consists of all the cycle events of a two-stroke engine and of a four-stroke engine, i.e. compression, combustion, expansion, scavenging, intake and exhaust.
- the compression ratio is defined as the maximum cylinder volume divided by the minimum cylinder volume, and the expansion ratio is equal to the compression ratio.
- the compression ratio is defined as the cylinder volume at the beginning of the compression period divided by the minimum cylinder volume.
- the expansion ratio is defined as the cylinder volume at the end of the expansion period divided by the minimum cylinder volume.
- An effective stroke is defined as the distance traveled by the piston during the compression period and the engine displacement is computed from the affective stroke while the displacement of the crankcase compressor i.e. the displacement of the piston during the period it functions to compress the gas in the crankcase, is computed from the full stroke.
- the scavenging ratio is the ratio between the compressor displacement and the engine displacement.
- This ratio for the usual crankcase scavenging is always less than one. For the new engine this ratio may be much greater than one.
- the cycle of events is essentially controlled by the exhaust valve -13-.
- the opening of the exhaust valve -13- may be controlled by a cam on the crankshaft and determines the end of the expansion period and the closing of valve -13- determines the beginning of the compression period. If the opening and closing of valve -13- are symetrical with, respect to the dead center at the cylinder head end of the cylinder, the compression period and the expansion period are equal.
- valve -13- If the opening of valve -13- is delayed, the expansion period is longer than the compression period and a more complete expansion is obtained. If the closing of valve -13- is advanced, the compression period starts earlier in the cycle and more air is trapped within the cylinder for combustion and a supercharged condition is obtained.
- the engine of this invention can be operated either as a spark-ignited system or as a compression ignited system. Adding to the flexability of operation, fuel may be injected into the cylinder or the fuel may be introduced through the crankcase -16-. It is also to be understood that more than one cylinder may be utilized with the other pistons driving a common crank shaft if certain minor modifications are made to the engine such as hermetically isolating the crankcase volume associated with each cylinder, or other suitable arrangements can be made to accomplish the proper operation of the engine.

Abstract
L'amélioration apportée au moteur à combustion interne du type à deux temps décrit provient essentiellement de l'emplacement des orifices d'admission (12) et de la soupape d'échappement (13). En plaçant les orifices d'admission (12) en un point proche du milieu de la course du piston et en disposant la soupape d'échappement (13) dans la culasse (22), on améliore le processus de balayage du moteur et on réduit les pertes de puissance de compression à l'admission, tout en permettant au moteur de présenter les différences sensibles dans les rapports de compression et de détente. La conception dudit moteur amélioré permet une réduction des contraintes sur le mécanisme de distribution et de fonctionnement du système de soupapes.
