Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a piston-valve two-stroke engine.
- a fuel injection type two-stroke engine in which a main scavenging passage and an auxiliary scavenging passage are formed in a cylinder block.
- a fuel injection device is attached to the crankcase.
- the fuel injector is oriented to inject fuel toward the scavenging inlet of the auxiliary scavenging passage.
- Other known fuel injection methods include a method in which fuel is injected into an intake path leading to the crank chamber, and a method in which fuel is directly injected into a combustion chamber.
- the present inventors have discovered that in a piston-valve type two-stroke engine, lubrication and cooling at the large end of the connecting rod located in the crankcase are important. Fuel such as gasoline is mixed with oil and supplied (injected) as a mixed fuel. From the viewpoint of low fuel consumption and environmental considerations, a two-stroke engine that can perform lubrication and cooling with a small amount of mixed fuel is desired.
- This disclosure describes a two-stroke engine that can provide big end lubrication and cooling with a small amount of mixed fuel.
- One aspect of the present disclosure is a piston-valve two-stroke engine (1) in which an intake port is opened and closed by a piston (4) that reciprocates along the axial direction within a bore (3) of a cylinder (2).
- a crankcase connected to a cylinder (2) and having a crank chamber (6a), a crank mechanism (7) arranged in the crank chamber (6a) and rotating around a crankshaft (7a), and a piston (4).
- a connecting rod having a connected small end (21) and a large end (22) connected to the crank mechanism (7); It includes a fuel injector (30) that injects mixed fuel in the tangential direction of the orbit and sprays the mixed fuel onto the large end (22).
- the fuel injector (30) attached to the crankcase sprays the mixed fuel onto the large end (22) of the connecting rod.
- the fuel injector (30) injects the mixed fuel in the tangential direction of the circumferential trajectory of the large end (22).
- the oil contained in the mixed fuel lubricates and cools the big end (22).
- the large end (22) is also cooled by the fuel (eg, gasoline) contained in the mixed fuel. Thereby, the large end (22) can be lubricated and cooled with a small amount of mixed fuel.
- the mixed fuel is injected into the crankcase rather than into the combustion chamber or the bore portion (3), there is no need to consider pressure resistance and heat resistance with respect to the peripheral configuration of the fuel injector (30).
- the injection port (31) of the fuel injector (30) may protrude into the crank chamber (6a). According to this configuration, the mixed fuel can be injected from a position closer to the large end (22), making it easier to obtain the desired lubrication and cooling effects described above.

- the fuel injector (30) may be configured to inject the mixed fuel into the big end (22) at least when the piston (4) is located at top dead center. According to this configuration, since the fuel injection is timed with the scavenging timing, it is easy to introduce the fuel sprayed onto the large end (22) into the scavenging hole.
- a scavenging hole (14) is formed in the cylinder (2), and the inlet (14a) of the scavenging hole (14) that opens toward the crank chamber (6a) is connected to the injection hole of the fuel injector (30) in the axial direction. It may be located at the same height as the mouth (31). According to this configuration, the fuel sprayed onto the large end (22) is easily introduced into the scavenging hole (14). Since the mixed fuel remains near the entrance (14a) of the scavenging hole (14), the fuel is easily introduced into the scavenging hole (14). This makes it possible to reduce wasted fuel that is not introduced into the scavenging hole (14), and also provides the effect of reducing fuel consumption. Furthermore, transient response and startability are improved.
