A blow-by gas filtration assembly fluidically connects to a crankcase ventilation circuit of an internal combustion engine. The filtration assembly has an axis and includes a filter group having a hollow cylindrical shape with a central chamber radially traversable by the blow-by gases, preferably from the outside to the inside. In addition, the filtration assembly includes a support and control member engageable to the filter group for supporting it in an axial position along the axis and for controlling it in rotation around the axis to perform the filtration operations. The member and the filter group include, respectively, a threaded member portion and a threaded filter portion engageable by reciprocal screwing. The member and the filter group also include, respectively, a member abutment and a filter abutment axially engageable along the axis to prevent further screwing of the threaded member portion and a threaded filter portion.

A two-stroke engine includes a cylinder having a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber is delimited by a piston guided in a reciprocating manner in the cylinder and drives a crankshaft. A first intake channel opens into the crankcase interior. A transfer channel opens into the crankcase interior via a transfer window on a cylinder bore of the cylinder and via a passage opening. A second intake channel is provided for supplying scavenging air to the transfer channel. The first intake channel and the second intake channel are configured for supplying air. An injection valve configured for injecting the entire quantity of fuel to be supplied to the engine directly into the crankcase interior is disposed on the crankcase. A method for operating a two-stroke engine provides that the entire quantity of fuel to be supplied to the engine via a metering installation is supplied directly to the crankcase interior.

The invention provides an internal combustion engine comprising a piston mounted for reciprocating linear motion within a cylinder along a cylinder axis. The piston is coupled to an output shaft by a power transfer assembly arranged to convert linear motion of the piston to rotary motion of the output shaft. The piston has a first head moveable within a first chamber and a second head opposite the first head and moveable within a second chamber. The power transfer assembly has a lubrication system for lubricating moving components of the power transfer assembly. The lubrication system is sealed from the first chamber and the second chamber to prevent the passage of fluid from the lubrication system into the first chamber and the second chamber.

A device for cleaning a contaminated crankcase gas generated during operation of an internal combustion engine is provided. An internal combustion engine including such a device is also provided. The device permits for an increased flexibility as to constructing the cleaning device while maintaining or possibly improving cleaning of the contaminated crankcase gas.

A clean-side oil and air separator includes (i) a first housing including a filter material; (ii) a second housing including a threaded portion adapted to be a direct replacement for an engine oil fill cap removably closing an oil engine fill port; and (iii) a coupler disposed between and removably coupling the first housing and the second housing; wherein the first housing, second housing, and coupler include a continuous fluid pathway therethrough that extends between (a) an air intake from a PCV valve and (b) the engine oil fill port; and wherein the filter material is disposed in said fluid pathway within said first housing.

A vehicle incorporates a turbocharged internal combustion engine and a crankcase ventilation system. That crankcase ventilation system includes a first vent line connecting a cam cover at a first spigot to an air inlet duct at a second spigot. In addition the system includes a second vent line connected between the crankcase and the intake manifold of the engine. A one-way valve is provided in the second vent line. A restriction is integrated into either the first spigot, the second spigot or a quick connect that connects the first vent line to the first or second spigot.

An internal combustion engine for an automotive vehicle has an intake manifold receiving fresh air via an inlet duct. The engine includes a crankcase. A turbocharger is provided having a compressor with an inlet coupled to the inlet duct and an outlet coupled to the intake manifold. A first vent line couples the crankcase with the compressor inlet. A second vent line couples the crankcase with the compressor outlet and intake manifold. The second vent line has a valve blocking air flow into the crankcase and allowing air flow out from the crankcase. The first vent line comprises a dual-acting valve having a first flow capacity into the crankcase and a second flow capacity out from the crankcase which is greater than the first flow capacity. Thus, crankcase ventilation is optimized for both engine idle and high engine load conditions.
