Abstract
An oil pump for a two-cycle internal combustion engine is mounted in a flange member which is attached to one end of the engine housing. The shaft of the oil pump is connected to the adjacent end of the crank shaft so that there is no relative rotation between the two shafts.
Claims5
Two-cycle internal combustion engine, particularly for use in a two-wheel vehicle, comprising an engine housing, a crank shaft positioned within said housing and having a first end at one end of said housing for mounting one of a generator or a flywheel ignition magneto, a flange member attached to and extending outwardly from the one end of said housing, an oil pump supported within said housing, said oil pump including a shaft, means for providing a co-axial non-rotatable connection between said shaft of said oil pump and the first end of said crank shaft, said flange member having a first part connected to said engine housing, a second part extending outwardly from said first part away from said engine housing in the axial direction of said crank shaft and laterally enclosing said pump, said second part having an outer cylindrical shape and having a smaller diameter than the diameter of said housing to which said first part is connected, and a third part attached to said second part at a location spaced from said first part and extending transversely of the axial direction of said crank shaft and forming a cover for said oil pump.
Two-cycle combustion engine, particularly for use in a two-wheel vehicle, comprising an engine housing, a crank shaft positioned within said housing and having a first end at one end of said housing for mounting one of a generator or flywheel ignition magneto, a flange member attached to and extending outwardly from the one end of said housing, an oil pump supported within said housing, said oil pump including a shaft, means for providing a co-axial non-rotatable connection between said shaft of said oil pump and the first end of said crank shaft, said flange member is bell-shaped, said flange member including a plate extending transversely of the axial direction of said crank shaft and located between said crank shaft and said oil pump with said oil pump supported on said plate, and a shell-like portion laterally enclosing said oil pump and having a part thereof extending transversely of the axial direction of said crank shaft and spaced on the opposite side of said oil pump from said plate and serving as a cover for said oil pump.
Two-cycle internal combustion engine, particularly for use in a two-wheel vehicle, comprising an engine housing, a crank shaft positioned within said housing and having a first end at one end of said housing for mounting one of a generator or a flywheel ignition magneto, a flange member attached to and extending outwardly from the one end of said housing, an oil pump supported within said housing, said oil pump including a shaft, means for providing a co-axial non-rotatable connection between said shaft of said oil pump and the first end of said crank shaft, a fastening nut is secured on the end of said crank shaft adjacent said oil pump, a coupling piece formed of an elastic material being slid onto said fastening nut, said coupling piece having a face extending transversely of the axial direction of said crank shaft, said groove being formed in the transverse face of said coupling piece, and the end of said shaft of said oil pump being interengaged in said groove in said coupling piece.
