Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve a cooling characteristic of both front and rear cylinders and form an engine to compact size in the longitudinal V-engine mounted to an autobicycle, by cooling the front cylinder with air while the rear cylinder with water and arranging a cooling water radiator to the upper part of the front cylinder. CONSTITUTION:A V-engine mounted to an autobicycle is constituted by an air- cooled front cylinder 1a provided with many cooling fins to the periphery and a water-cooled rear cylinder 1b connected to a radiator 6 with circulative pipes 6a, 6b. The radiator 6, being of capacity only required about one half of the full cylinder water cooled type, can be constituted to compact size and housed in a narrow space in the upper of the cylinder 1a, and a cooling characteristics of the both front and rear cylinders can be improved without causing the necessity for increasing overall length of the engine.

In engines installed in motorcycles, in so-called front and rear VG engines whose surfaces are V-shaped front and rear, if the engine is air-cooled, the cooling air for the rear side is blown away by the front cylinder. There is a problem with the cooling of the hiroka being insufficient. On the other hand, in order to solve this problem of cooling power, it would be possible to use a water-cooled system, but in the case of a water-cooled system, the radiator is installed in front of the engine, so the wheelbase is increased by the amount of the radiator installed. As the wheelbase becomes longer, the frame also becomes longer, which increases the weight of the aircraft, leading to problems such as worsening fuel consumption.

The V-type engine for a motorcycle according to the present invention, which achieves the above-mentioned purpose, has a plurality of IS arranged in a V-shape in the front and rear, in which the front cylinder is air-cooled and the rear
The engine is characterized in that the cylinder m is water-cooled, and a radiator for water cooling is arranged above the front cylinder.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a V-type engine according to the present invention, in which a front opening 1a and an opening opening 1b are arranged in a V-shape at the front and rear, respectively. This V-type engine 1 is supported by a main vibe 2 and a down tube 3 that constitute the body of the motorcycle. 5 is a front wheel supported by the front fork 4.

The front aperture 111a of the V-type engine 1 is provided with a large number of fins on its outer periphery so that cooling is performed by air. On the other hand, the rear j[111b is connected to the radiator 6 by a circulating vibro a and 6b, and is cooled by water cooling.

The radiator 6 is installed in a relatively narrow space above the front chamber 111a. That is, since the radiator 6 installed here only needs to cool the rear seat 1rlb,
Its capacity is about half that of a radiator for a conventional water-cooled V-type engine, making the whole compact, and as mentioned above, it can be stored in the narrow space above the front chamber 111a. .

In the V-type engine of the motorcycle mentioned above, the rear j! E
lllb is cooled uniformly and favorably by water cooling via the radiator 6. Moreover, the capacity of the radiator 6 for cooling the VK air 11b is smaller than that of the conventional large radiator 6' that cools both the front and rear air cylinders.
Since it can be installed in a narrow space above the front cylinder instead of in front of the front cylinder, it can be installed in a position that is further back in the front-rear direction by β compared to conventional water-cooled VV engines. It becomes possible.

On the other hand, as mentioned above, the radiator 6 for cooling the rear cylinder is installed above the front cylinder 1a, and this radiator 6 is connected to the front cylinder 11.
Since the cooling air from the front to the cylinder 1a is not blocked, the front cylinder 1a is cooled extremely well by air cooling.

(3) As mentioned above, the V-type engine for a motorcycle according to the present invention has a plurality of IWTs arranged in the front and rear of the motorcycle, and the front cylinder is air-cooled and the rear chamber is water-cooled. In addition, since this water cooling radiator is an elliptical type placed above the front cylinder, by making it partially water cooled, it improves the cooling performance of both the front and rear cylinders of the front and rear V-type engine, and the radiator is placed above the front cylinder. This makes it possible to make the wheelbase as long as an air-cooled engine, and this short wheelbase also makes it possible to reduce the weight of the vehicle body and reduce the fuel consumption rate.
