An injection nozzle for use in injecting lubricating oil into cylinders in large engines is provided. The nozzle is adapted for fastening in a cylinder wall with a nozzle rod extending through the cylinder wall and with a nozzle outlet at the inner end of the nozzle rod. The nozzle rod includes a cylindrical valve seat boring with a displaceable valve body having a cylindrical sealing face which interacts with the cylindrical valve seat boring of the nozzle rod, the valve body biased by a spring for effective closing of the valve. The valve body is formed by a cylindrical rod having a turned recess in the cylindrical sealing face of the valve body. The turned recess is arranged at the inner end of the valve body with parts of the cylindrical sealing face of the valve body at each side of the turned recess.

An internal combustion may include a cylinder having a first combustion chamber at one end and a second combustion chamber at an opposing end, first and second cylinder heads located at an end of the first and second combustion chambers, respectively, and a double-faced piston slidably mounted therein. The piston may be configured to move in a first stroke that includes an expansion stroke portion and a non-expansion stroke portion. The engine may further include first and second piston rod portions extending from opposite faces of the piston. A recess in the piston rod portions may be configured to communicate gases between a combustion chamber and locations outside the cylinder. There may also be a chamber surrounding the first or second piston rod portion, the chamber configured to be supplied with gas and the chamber being isolated from the first combustion chamber and the second combustion chamber.

A cylinder head assembly includes a cylinder head casting, and an injector sleeve within an injector bore in the cylinder head casting. The injector sleeve includes a first sleeve end, and an injector clamping surface formed by an inner sleeve surface adjacent to a cylindrical second sleeve end. The injector sleeve further includes a sleeve clamping surface in contact with an upward facing middle deck surface of the cylinder head casting, and a reaction wall extending between the injector clamping surface and the sleeve clamping surface to transfer an injector clamping load to the upward facing middle deck surface.

A fuel injector assembly for use in repairing a damaged fuel injector cylinder in an internal combustion engine includes a replacement injector sleeve and a replacement injector lower body. The replacement injector sleeve is installed in the damaged fuel injector cylinder and covers a crack in the fuel injector cylinder sidewall or the fuel injector cylinder bottom wall to inhibit leakage of fuel into a cooling system of the internal combustion engine.

A throttle body fuel injection system and method that is arranged to easily replace four-barrel carburetors includes a throttle body assembly with four main bores, each with a throttle plate and an associated fuel injector. Each injector feeds fuel into a circular fuel distribution ring via a fuel injection conduit, which introduces pressurized fuel into the air stream. The fuel distribution rings and bores have profiles that avoid constrictions for to prevent low pressure zones according to the Venturi effect. The throttle body includes an idle air control circuit having a port opening into main intake bores downstream of the point of fuel distribution into the air stream, thereby reducing the tendency for a lean fuel mixture at idle. An ECU “feed forward” algorithm controls fuel injection as a function of the position of the idle air control valve.

An injector clip includes a lower plate formed to support a fuel injection portion of an injector, a base plate is formed to engage with and support a connection portion of the injector and an engagement support portion elastically supports the lower plate and the base plate to return the fuel injection portion to an original position after being displaced. A spring arm is formed by extending from the base plate to support a fuel inlet portion of the injector. Accordingly the load resulting from fuel injection of a fuel injector is attenuated and p a fuel injection device is prevented from rotating.
