Abstract
An internal combustion engine of the spark ignition type developing a maximum output power at about 8000 rpm includes at least two ignition plugs for each cylinder and projections formed on the inner wall surface of a cylinder head for producing a squishy current. The engine also includes an ignition device including a delay circuit for delaying the ignition time in the high-speed rotation range, to thereby provide improvements in the output power and fuel consumption rate over the entire rotation range.
Claims3
A two stroke cycle spark ignition type internal combustion engine comprising:
- at least two ignition plugs for each cylinder substantially equidistantly spaced from the center of the cylinder and spaced from each other a distance which is in the range between about 0.35 to about 0.45 (in terms of d/D, where d is the distance between plugs and D is the inner diameter of the cylinder);
- projections formed on the inner wall surface of the cylinder head defining a combustion chamber, said projections having undersides facing the upper surface of a piston in the cylinder to provide an annular squish area at the cylinder periphery in the range of about 0.5 to about 0.8 (in terms of d'/D, where d' is the inner diameter of the annular squish area) for producing a squishy current;
- and
- an ignition device connected to said ignition plugs for simultaneously actuating the two ignition plugs, sad ignition device including a delay circuit for reducing the advance angle of the ignition timing in the high-speed rotation range as compared with the ignition timing in the most advanced rotation range.
A two stroke cycle spark ignition type internal combustion engine comprising:
- two ignition plugs for each cylinder mounted at a cylinder head, substantially equidistantly spaced from the center of the cylinder and spaced from each other a distance which is in the range between about 0.35 to about 0.45 (in terms of d/D, where d is the distance between plugs and D is the inner diameter of the cylinder), said cylinder head having a hemispherical inner wall surface;
- projections formed on the inner wall surface of the cylinder head defining a combustion chamber, said projections having upper portions contiguous with said hemispherical portion of the inner wall surface of the cylinder head and the ignition plugs, said projections having undersides facing the upper surface of a piston in the cylinder to provide an annular squish area at the cylinder periphery in the range of about 0.5 to about 0.8 (in terms of d'/D, where d' is the inner diameter of the annular squish area) adjacent said ignition plugs;
- and
- an ignition device connected to said ignition plugs for simultaneously actuating said plugs, said ignition device including a delay circuit for reducing the advance angle of ignition timing in the high-speed rotation range as compared with the ignition timing in the most advanced rotation range;
- said engine being operable with an air-fuel ratio in the range of about 13 to about 14 supplied to the combustion chamber to provide an improved fuel consumption rate over the entire rotation range of the engine.
