The fuel injector assembly includes an insert, having a first end and a second end, configured to be received within the through-hole and coupled to the cylinder head. The insert defines a bore extending from the first end to the second end. The fuel injector assembly further includes a fuel injector including a plurality of orifices, received within the bore of the insert; and a duct structure including a plurality of ducts, coupled to the insert such that the plurality of ducts align with the plurality of orifices to at least partially receive one or more fuel jets from the plurality of orifices of the fuel injector.

A structure of a combustion chamber is provided. The structure includes a cavity formed in a central part of a crown surface of a piston and a wall surface constituting the cavity. The wall surface has a central ridge portion bulging farther toward a bottom surface of a cylinder head toward a center of the cavity, a periphery concave portion formed radially outward of the central ridge portion to concave radially outward, and a lip portion formed between the periphery concave portion and an opening edge of the cavity to convex radially inward. An outer circumferential part of the crown surface has a first portion and a second portion located radially outward of the first portion. A stepped portion is formed between the first and second portions. A stepped portion volume ratio of a stepped portion volume to a top dead center volume is set to 0.1 or smaller.

An assembly, a crankcase, a reciprocating internal combustion engine, and a method for producing a reciprocating internal combustion engine facilitates engine block cleaning after casting, enables current and future residual-soiling standards to be met, and provides a solution to the challenges facing current and future high-performance engines, in particular the load zones head plate and cylinder tube, as well as potential for local improvement to properties in the crankcase in the additional load zones, namely the screw connection connecting the cylinder head and the crankshaft bearing. The assembly includes at least two cylinders and a platelike deck plate connecting them of integral design, wherein the platelike deck plate has a clearance for each cylinder and wherein the assembly can be inserted into or placed upon a crankcase of a reciprocating internal combustion engine, in that at least one coolant guideway is arranged between the cylinders.

In some embodiments, a fuel rail for a two-stroke internal combustion engine includes a fuel rail body, a fuel inlet component integrated within the fuel rail body as a one-piece component and in fluidic contact with a fuel line, one or more fuel exit ports in fluidic contact with a cylinder of a combustion engine, and one or more fasteners adapted to secure the fuel rail body to a cylinder wall of the cylinder of the combustion engine.

A modular bracket for mounting a first filter and a second filter thereon is provided. The modular bracket includes a first mount and a second mount adapted to receive the first filter and the second filter thereon respectively. The modular bracket includes a first chamber and a second chamber provided in fluid communication with the first mount and the second mount respectively. Each of the first chamber and the second chamber is adapted to receive a filtered fluid from the first filter and the second filter respectively. The modular bracket also includes a central chamber, provided in fluid communication with the first chamber and the second chamber, adapted to receive the filtered fluid from the first chamber and the second chamber. The modular bracket further includes an outlet, provided in fluid communication with the central chamber, adapted to provide an egress of the filtered fluid from the central chamber.

An engine unit includes an engine body, a crankshaft, and an oil tank. The engine body includes a cylinder unit and a crankcase. The crankshaft is accommodated in the crankcase and extends in the horizontal or substantially horizontal direction. The oil tank is located at a lateral portion of the engine body. The oil tank includes a tank body, a first component, and a second component. The first component is separate from the tank body and is joined to the tank body. The second component is separate from the tank body and is joined to the tank body. A first joint surface between the tank body and the first component extends in a direction different from that of a second joint surface between the tank body and the second component.

A fuel pump includes: a housing with fuel reservoir; first and second axles; respective pluralities of cams fixedly secured to each axle. The first axle and cams are rotated by gas pedal actuation, and meshed gears cause co-rotation of the second axle and its cams. A plurality of housing conduits each have first conduit portions in fluid communication with the fuel reservoir, which transition into second conduit portions in fluid communication with a fuel injector. Pusher rods slidable in each second conduit portion contact spring-biased balls. The gears, cams, and pusher rods ends are positioned in the fuel reservoir. Spring-biased balls also normally block the first conduits. Rotation of the first axle for increased crankshaft rotation speed causes simultaneous rotation of every cam, and each increment of cam rotation into second, third, fourth, and fifth rotational positions sequentially drives a respective pusher rod to provide incremental increased fuel flow.

Engines operating using multiple, different types of fuel are described. The engines may include components that control the introduction of fuels and/or reduce premature pre-ignition of fuels, such as a fuel comprising a percentage of hydrogen. The described hydrogen-fueled engines have a reduced carbon footprint.

An internal combustion engine has a crankcase having a first crankcase portion fastened to a second crankcase portion along a first plane, a crankshaft, a cylinder block defining two cylinders, two pistons, and a cylinder head. A crankshaft support defines a crankshaft support aperture. A central portion of the crankshaft is received in the crankshaft support aperture. At least one fastener fastens the crankshaft support to the cylinder block. The at least one fastener is perpendicular to a crankshaft axis and is disposed in a second plane. The crankshaft axis is normal to the first plane. The second plane is one of coplanar with and parallel to the first plane.
