この発明は振動の低減と小形軽量化を図った水平対向形
3気筒エンジンに関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a horizontally opposed three-cylinder engine that is designed to reduce vibration and to be compact and lightweight.
まず、従来の水平対向形2気筒エンジンを第1図によシ
説明する。このエンジンでは、2つのシリンダ30.3
1の中心はクランク軸32の軸方向で互いにずれている
。ここで、クランク軸32の中心線=iY軸、このY軸
上のシリンダ30.31間の中心点金O、ピストン33
.34の往復運動方向と平行で上記中v点Ok上記Y軸
に直角に通る直線をX軸、上記中心点Oを紙面の表裏方
向に直角に通る直線iZ軸とすると、Z軸まわりの1次
モーメントを釣合せるため、両性側のクランクウェブに
なる重さの不釣合重錘35,36が必要である。First, a conventional horizontally opposed two-cylinder engine will be explained with reference to FIG. In this engine, two cylinders 30.3
1 are offset from each other in the axial direction of the crankshaft 32. Here, the center line of the crankshaft 32 = iY axis, the center point O between the cylinders 30 and 31 on this Y axis, the piston 33
.. If the straight line parallel to the reciprocating direction of 34 and passing at right angles to the above Y-axis is the X-axis, and the straight line passing through the center point O at right angles to the front and back directions of the paper is the Z-axis, then the first order around the Z-axis is In order to balance the moments, unbalanced weights 35, 36 are required, the weight of which becomes the crank web on both sides.
なお、上式のWRecは往復運動部に対応する重量、W
HOTは回転運動部に対応する重量である。In addition, WRec in the above formula is the weight corresponding to the reciprocating part, W
HOT is the weight corresponding to the rotating part.
しかし、Z軸まわりの不釣合1次モーメントはとれても
、Z軸まわりの2次モーメントとX軸まわシの1次モー
メントは残る。つまり、上記不釣合重錘による不釣合モ
ーメントの一次および二次の成分が残ることになる。However, even if the first moment of unbalance around the Z axis is removed, the second moment around the Z axis and the first moment of rotation around the X axis remain. In other words, the primary and secondary components of the unbalanced moment due to the unbalanced weight remain.
このように、従来の水平対向形2気筒エンジンでは、慣
性力を釣合せるため、クランク軸の動力伝達や剛性の向
上に直接関与しない不釣合重錘をクランクウェブに装備
しなければならず、しかも、これによシ慣性力による不
釣合をなくしても、不釣合モーメントが残るので、なお
エンジンにハ振動が発生する。このため、作業機や車輌
などへの搭載にあたっては、そのエンジンを弾性部材に
ょシ支持したり、あるいはシャシの剛性を上げるなどの
対策を必要とした。In this way, in conventional horizontally opposed two-cylinder engines, in order to balance the inertial force, it is necessary to equip the crank web with an unbalanced weight that does not directly participate in power transmission or improving the rigidity of the crankshaft. Even if the unbalance caused by the inertial force is eliminated, an unbalanced moment remains, and vibrations still occur in the engine. Therefore, when mounting the engine on a working machine or vehicle, it is necessary to take measures such as supporting the engine with an elastic member or increasing the rigidity of the chassis.
一方、上記のような不都合を解消するため、たとえば、

置の3気筒形とする考えがあるが、このものでは、各シ
リンダが対向配置されていないうえに、各シリンダの大
きさが同一であるから、エンジンが軸方向に長くなって
大形化し、重量もかさむ欠点がある。On the other hand, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned inconveniences, for example,
As described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-1395419, there is an idea to use a three-cylinder type arranged in parallel, but in this case, the cylinders are not arranged facing each other and each cylinder is of the same size. However, the disadvantage is that the engine becomes longer in the axial direction, making it larger and heavier.
この発明は上記欠点を解消するためになされたもので、

目的としている。This invention was made to eliminate the above drawbacks.
The object of the present invention is to provide a horizontally opposed three-cylinder engine that is small and light in smoke and suppresses vibrations due to unbalance of inertial force.

A phase difference of 180° is provided between each corresponding crank pin, and the displacement of the one large diameter cylinder and the sum of the displacements of the two small diameter cylinders are set to be approximately equal, and for one large diameter cylinder. The mass of the reciprocating part and the sum of the masses of the reciprocating parts for the two small-diameter cylinders are set to be approximately equal.

ている。In this figure, 1, 2.3 are the respective cylinders,
One large-diameter cylinder 1 and two small-diameter cylinders 2, 3 are arranged horizontally opposite each other, and the sum of the displacement of one large-diameter cylinder 1 and the displacement of two small-diameter cylinders 2, 3 is approximately are set equal. 4 is a crankshaft supported by a crankcase 5, and this crankshaft 4 is provided with three crank pins 6, 7, and 8, including a central crank pin 6 and a crank pin 7 placed at a symmetrical position to the central crank pin 6.
.. 8, a phase difference of 180° is given to each other. Crank pins 7 and 8 are in phase. Thus, the large diameter cylinder 1 corresponds to the central crank pin 6, and the small diameter cylinders 2 and 3 correspond to the left and right crank pins 7.8, respectively. 9°10.11 is for each cylinder 1, 2 .
Conwat 12, 13.1 with a piston charged to 3.

The reciprocating part 16.17 for the two small-diameter cylinders 2 and 3 consists of a part of the pistons 10 and 11 and the connecting rod 13.14, but in the configuration shown in FIG. The mass of the reciprocating section 15 and the latter reciprocating section 1
The sum of 6,170 masses is set approximately equal.

くなる。On the other hand, one of the factors that determines engine performance is the bore/stroke ratio. In Figure 2, each crank radius r
, each connecting rod length 1 is the same, in this case or/
If the stroke ratio is 0.7 on the 1st cylinder side (left side), then 2
It is approximately 1 on the cylinder side (right side). On the other hand, FIG. 3 shows an example in which the pore/stroke ratios for each cylinder 1°2.3 are the same, 0.7. In this case, 1
The cylinder side reciprocating part weight x crank radius and the rotating part type lid x crank radius are equal to the sum of the reciprocating part M amounts on the two cylinder sides x the sum of the Kufunk radius and the rotating part weight x crank radius, respectively.

じ大きさとなシ、第3図の場合にはさらに小形軽量化さ
れる。The engine of this invention is a three-cylinder type as opposed to the two-cylinder type shown in Fig. 1, so it is expected to be larger in size. On the other hand,
By making the sum of the displacements of the two small-diameter cylinders 2 and 3 approximately equal, the bore of the two cylinders 2.3 becomes smaller and the dead space is effectively utilized. Therefore, when the crank radius r and the connecting rod length 1 are all the same, the size is approximately the same as the horizontally opposed two-cylinder type shown in FIG. 1, and the size shown in FIG. 3 is further reduced in size and weight.

小さく抑制される。In addition, in FIGS. 2 and 3, one large diameter cylinder 1
The mass of the reciprocating part 15 for the minute and the sum of the masses of the reciprocating part 16.17 for the two small diameter cylinders 2 and 3 are approximately equal, and the piston 9 and the piston 10.11
are opposed to each other and perform reciprocating motion, and since the crank pins r, 5y6 are in symmetrical positions with respect to the crank pin 6, the reciprocating orbits of the pistons 10 and 11 are aligned with the piston 9.
Since the inertial forces of the reciprocating motion system are balanced, the generation of vibrations is suppressed to a small level.

。It should be noted that an increase in the number of parts may lead to an increase in system costs, but as shown in Figure 4, the 1st cylinder side (left side)
In the valve operating mechanism 18 of the intake/exhaust port on the 2nd cylinder side (right side), by combining the cam lobe 18a used for opening and closing the intake port 1 and the exhaust port in one, the increase in the cam lobe is minimized. In addition, since the small-diameter 2 cylinders 2°3 etc. are reduced in size, the cost increase is extremely small compared to converting from normal 2 cylinders to 3 cylinders.
