Internal Combustion Engine with Spark Plug and Prechamber Spark Plug
The present disclosure relates to an internal combustion engine, comprising: at least one cylinder; two charge-exchange ports per cylinder, a first charge-exchange port being an inlet port, and a second charge-exchange port being an outlet port; and one spark plug and one prechamber spark plug per each cylinder.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH IMPROVED HANDLING OF EMISSION AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SUCH ENGINE
An internal combustion engine comprising: at least a cylinder; at least an intake valve acting on an intake port for controlling the airflow entering the cylinder; at least an injector for supplying uncombusted fuel to the cylinder; at least an outlet valve acting on a respective outlet port 18 for controlling the flow of the exhaust gases at the outlet of the cylinder; a piston sliding in a linear manner within the cylinder; at least a first spark plug arranged in a position adjacent to the injector and acting within the combustion chamber; a pre-chamber communicating with the combustion chamber; and a second spark plug acting within the pre-chamber; the first spark plug is arranged in an intermediate position between the pre-chamber and the injector.
Multi-spark and continuous spark ignition module, system, and method
An ignition module, ignition system, and method for providing and generating at least two sparks in each cylinder in a single combustion cycle for RPMs over 3,000. The ignition module, system, and method is configured to detect misfires in a spark plug and take measures to alert a user of such misfires and cause an additional spark to occur prior to the completion of the cylinder's power stroke during its combustion cycle. The ignition module, system and method provides for continuous spark at high RPMs and is configured to reduce and/or eliminate engine misfire in excess of about 3,000 RPM for four stroke engines and up to 30,000 RPM for two stroke engines.
Engine
An engine includes: a piston including a cavity; a cylinder head configured so as to form a combustion chamber having a pent roof shape; a fuel injection valve configured to inject fuel from a second half of a compression stroke until a first half of an expansion stroke; and a spark plug arranged at a position corresponding to an upper side of the cavity. Injection openings which are arranged in a circumferential direction surrounding a longitudinal axis of the valve and through each of which the fuel is injected in a direction inclined relative to the longitudinal axis by a predetermined angle is formed such that when a height of a ceiling of the combustion chamber at a position corresponding to an edge end portion of the cavity in an injection direction of the injection opening is large, the injection angle of the injection opening is large.
Internal combustion engine comprising at least one cylinder equipped with a pre-chamber, an injector and two spark plugs, and method for operating same
An internal combustion engine may include a combustion chamber which is delimited by a cylinder; an injector with which fuel can be injected into the combustion chamber, whereby a mixture comprising fuel and air can be generated in the combustion chamber; a pre-chamber, which is fluidically separate from the combustion chamber with the exception of a passage opening and which is fluidically connected to the combustion chamber via the passage opening; a first spark plug with which an ignition spark can be produced in the pre-chamber; and a second spark plug with which an ignition spark can be produced in the combustion chamber and outside of the pre-chamber, wherein the pre-chamber, the injector, and the second spark plug are arranged, in this order, in a direction extending in a plane that is perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylinder.
Combustion chamber structure of engine
The present invention relates to a combustion chamber structure of an engine configured to inject fuel in a predetermined operation range in a period from a second half of a compression stroke until a first half of an expansion stroke to perform ignition after a compression top dead center. The combustion chamber structure includes: a piston including a cavity; a fuel injection valve provided at a middle portion of the piston; and a spark plug provided at a radially outer side of the middle portion of the piston and an upper side of the cavity. The cavity is formed by a curved surface having curvature that becomes larger as the curved surface extends toward the radially outer side. A tangential direction of an edge end portion of the curved surface intersects with a combustion chamber ceiling radially outward of the spark plug.
