An engine is described having a crankcase, a liner and a head assembly. The crankcase is split along a plane defining a two part crankcase, where fluid passages are passing through only one of the crankcase portions, so as to not require crossing the split line. A connecting rod also includes a tapered end, and the piston has a complementary carrier receiving the connecting rod.

Provided is a lubricant feed mechanism for an engine capable of achieving manufacturing cost reduction. A lubricant feed mechanism for an engine (1) is configured to feed lubricant through a cylinder head (10), a camshaft (an intake-side camshaft (40); an exhaust-side camshaft (42)), a cam cap (50), and an oil feed member (100) to a cam (a cam (40a); a cam (42a)) of a valve gear (30). The oil feed member (100) is formed by folding one panel member, and the inside surface of the oil feed member (100) in the folded state is recessed so as to form an oil passage (a first oil passage (114); a second oil passage (116); a third oil passage (118)) for guiding lubricant fed through the cam cap (50) to the cam.

A camshaft cover, a camshaft assembly, and a double-cylinder engine are provided. The camshaft cover has an integral structure, and includes a first shaft cover portion, a second shaft cover portion, a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion. The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are connected between the first shaft cover portion and the second shaft cover portion, and spaced apart axially.

There is provided a variable valve timing system, including: a camshaft rotatably supported by a support wall of an engine; a variable valve device configured to advance or retard the camshaft by a hydraulic pressure; and an oil control valve. A thrust stopper is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the camshaft. A bearing surface of the support wall is formed with an advance groove through which oil for advancing the camshaft is to pass, a retard groove through which oil for retarding the camshaft is to pass, and an accommodation groove configured to accommodate the thrust stopper. At the bearing surface, the retard groove is positioned on one wall surface side of the support wall, the accommodation groove is positioned on the other wall surface side of the support wall, and the advance groove is positioned between the retard groove and the accommodation groove.

A lubrication system for an internal combustion engine of a work vehicle includes an engine oil sump and a pump unit fluidly connected to the engine oil sump to receive engine oil therefrom. The pump unit, in turn, includes a first oil pump comprising a variable displacement pump, a second oil pump, a drive line mechanically coupled to the first oil pump and the second oil pump that drives each of the pumps, and a manifold that directs engine oil from the engine oil sump to the first and second oil pumps. A first oil circuit is fluidly coupled to the first oil pump to direct a first flow of engine oil to piston spray jets in the engine and a second oil circuit is fluidly coupled to the second oil pump to direct a second flow of engine oil to one or more oiled engine components in the engine.

An internal combustion engine includes at least one cylinder crankcase, at least one cylinder head (1), at least one overhead camshaft (2), at least two rocker arms (3) which are driven by the camshaft (2) and actuate the combustion valves, the camshaft(s) (2) being mounted in the cylinder head housing, and an oil supply line (9) which is situated in particular in the area of the top face of the cylinder head (1) for lubricating camshaft bearing brackets (10) and the rocker arm brackets (11).
