Definitions
- the invention relates to a Brennkr ⁇ ftmotor with a first for operation with fuel supply and a second provided for operation without own fuel supply cylinder and an overflow connection formed between the cylinders with a shut-off that can be held during the working cycle of the first cylinder in an open position, wherein the Moving pistons in the cylinders substantially synchronously with respect to the top and bottom dead center, the dead volume of the second cylinder is smaller than that of the first, and the second cylinder comprises an outlet valve provided for opening during the compression phase of the first cylinder.
- the invention has for its object to provide a new engine of the type mentioned above with respect to this prior art further improved fuel efficiency.
- the object of this invention solving internal combustion engine according to the invention is characterized in that the exhaust valve of the second cylinder is closed before reaching the top dead center of the piston and can be generated in the second cylinder, a voltage applied to the opening of the shut-off compression.
- the locking member releases the overflow connection when the compression pressures in the two cylinders are exactly equal.
- the second cylinder also has an inlet valve, through which fresh air can be pressed into the second cylinder during the compression phase of the first cylinder when the outlet valve of the second cylinder is open.
- this fresh air flushes combustion gases of the preceding cycle from the second cylinder and then ensures an afterburning of the gas flowed over into the second cylinder and thus for an even more extensive utilization of the fuel.
- a third, the first cylinder corresponding cylinder is provided which operates offset from the first cylinder by 360 °.
- the first and third cylinders may then be operated in a four-stroke mode, with the second cylinder doing mechanical work every second stroke for each downward movement of the piston.
- the three cylinders are arranged in a cylinder bank, which forms a basic module, which is connected to at least one other such
- the reciprocating pistons of the basic module work expediently parallel to one another, Give it with identical strokes. Thanks to a much smaller dead volume in the middle cylinder, the piston in the middle cylinder needs much less energy to finally compress to the same pressure as any cylinder next to it during the combined expulsion and compression stroke. As soon as pressure equality is achieved before ignition, the overflow connection is opened, whereby thanks to the pressure equilibrium initially no noticeable overflow takes place. After ignition in the outer cylinder, the combustion pressure, which acts on the reciprocating piston in the outer cylinder directly and via the overflow now also the reciprocating piston in the middle cylinder, so that both reciprocating perform a power stroke.
- the stroke of the middle piston is different from the strokes of the outer piston.
- the stroke of the middle piston is different from the strokes of the outer piston.
- the connecting rod angle of the middle piston is different from those of the outer piston. Then, the middle reciprocating piston reaches its dead center forward or backward, e.g. to account for a delay in ignition.
- the two outer cylinders have inlet and outlet valves, while the middle cylinder has at least one outlet valve.
- This exhaust valve is used to exhaust expanded and relatively cool exhaust gas from the middle cylinder. Since the middle cylinder operates in two-stroke mode, the exhaust valve is opened only over part of the Ausschiebe- and compression stroke to build up in the smaller dead space of the middle cylinder up to a certain stroke position the same pressure in the outer, just the compression stroke exporting cylinder until the overflow connection is opened.
- the shut-off of the overflow is a slider or a piston valve. Both the slider and the piston Valve avoid in the shut-off an undesirable Totr ⁇ um.
- the middle cylinder has a larger cylinder diameter than the two outer cylinders. This increases the usable space for .Expansion space and also the loading surface of the reciprocating piston during the power stroke.
- the working cycles of the two outer cylinders are offset from each other by 360 degrees of the crankshaft rotation angle.
- the middle cylinder ideally works alternately with each outer cylinder at its stroke.
- the exhaust valve of the middle cylinder during the Ausschiebe- and compression stroke of the reciprocating piston is alsêtbar only between the bottom dead center and a predetermined stroke position below the top dead center. As long as the exhaust valve is open, expanded cool exhaust gas is expelled.
- the closing time of the exhaust valve is chosen so that in the middle cylinder after closing the exhaust valve shortly before reaching the top dead center because of the smaller dead space, the same pressure prevails as in the outer, just the compression stroke exporting cylinder.
- the internal combustion engine has a charging device.
- the loading device may, preferably, be used primarily for loading the middle cylinder, whereby then a loading ratio of about 1: 3 can be achieved.
- the inlet valve serves as a purge valve during the Ausschiebe- and compression stroke in the middle cylinder, and that at least until the closing of the exhaust valve. It is supported in this way by the supply of fresh air, the pushing out of the exhaust gas, and for the subsequent power stroke in the middle cylinder
- This combustion is relatively lean and high temperature, which increases the power output.
- This residual fuel from the outer cylinder could hardly be completely burned in the outer cylinder itself.
- Another advantage of the charge air supply at least to the middle cylinder is a desirable temperature reduction, optionally when using a charge air cooler.
- the basic module as gasoline or gas engine ignition devices only for the two outer cylinder, and of course only fuel supply devices for these two outer cylinder.
- the base module as a diesel engine on Glühvorraumen and Brennstoffzu Georgiavorraumen only for the two outer cylinder. This reduced equipment reduces manufacturing costs and weight in both cases.
- the reciprocating piston of the middle cylinder at the same cylinder heights on a dead space in the middle cylinder reducing, raised piston crown.
- the middle piston exerts relatively high force on the crankshaft in its more frequent work cycles, it is expedient to store the crankshaft between the crank pin for the three reciprocating piston and to strengthen the connecting rod of the middle piston.
- valves or sliders camshaft actuated to achieve precise timing dependent on the crankshaft rotation.

- the dead spaces of the two outer cylinders are indicated by 15 and 16.
- the dead space 17 of the middle cylinder is considerably smaller than the dead spaces 15, 16. This is achieved, for example, by the fact that the piston 12 in the middle cylinder has a raised piston crown 14 and / or due to the different Hubs of the lifting cylinder 12 or with a different connecting rod angle of the connecting rod 9 of the middle piston 12 relative to the other connecting rods 9.
