Two-stage boost system for engines
A dual turbocharger system for an engine is provided. In one example, the dual turbocharger system may include two variable geometry turbines (VGTs), with each turbine being of the same size and operating in parallel, and with each compressor of the turbocharger operating in series, the first compressor of the first turbocharger being larger than the second compressor of the second turbocharger.
Two-Cylinder Reciprocating Engine
A two-cylinder reciprocating engine includes a cylinder block; a first cylinder with a combustion chamber; a second cylinder with a combustion chamber; a crankshaft coupled to the first cylinder and the second cylinder with a crank angle of 270 degrees; a first exhaust port connected with the combustion chamber of the first cylinder; a second exhaust port connected with the combustion chamber of the second cylinder; a first header connected with the first exhaust port; a second header connected with the second exhaust port; and an exhaust converging section connected with the first header and the second header, wherein the first header, the second header, and the exhaust converging section are in the cylinder block.

V-type OHV engine
An OHV engine includes V-shaped banks, a crank shaft, a cam shaft connected to the crank shaft, a mechanical supercharger located between the V-shaped banks, and a power transmission supported by the cam shaft and that connects the crank shaft to the mechanical supercharger. The power transmission includes a gear mechanism with a gear ratio not greater than a predetermined value, and includes a first gear supported rotatably by the cam shaft and that rotates based on an output from the crank shaft, a second gear provided on a rotation shaft of the mechanical supercharger, and an idle gear that connects the first and second gears with each other. Cylinders are offset with respect to a center of the crank shaft on an anti-thrust side of the cylinders, and the mechanical supercharger is also offset with respect to a center of the crank shaft on the anti-thrust side. Cylinder heads are provided with oil cooling paths adjacent respective spark plugs.

Multiple cylinder engine
An internal combustion engine may include a first piston reciprocatingly disposed in a first cylinder, a combustion chamber fluidly coupled with the first cylinder, and an ignition source at least partially disposed within the combustion chamber. An intake valve may provide selective fluid communication between an intake system and the combustion chamber, and an exhaust valve may provide selective fluid communication between an exhaust system and the combustion chamber. A second piston may be reciprocatingly disposed within a second cylinder. An inlet associated with the second cylinder may be fluidly coupled with the intake system, and an outlet may be fluidly coupled with one or more of the first cylinder and the combustion chamber. A crankshaft may be coupled with the first piston and the second piston for rotational motion associated with reciprocating movement of the first piston and the second piston.

V8 ENGINE
A V8 engine, each bank of which is configured such that four crank pins connected to four piston pins via a connecting rod are positioned at 90° intervals when viewed from one end of a crankshaft. The four crank pins on the bank side are offset by 60° relative to the four crank pins on the bank side when viewed from the one end.
