Abstract:
In a spark-ignition two-cycle engine, the inlet end of a cylinder cooling water passage is connected to the discharge port of a cooling water pump by a cooling water pipe. The inlet end of a cylinder head cooling water passage is connected to the discharge port of a cooling water pump by a cooling water pipe. The outlet end of the cylinder cooling water passage is connected through a thermostat to the upper end of a cylinder cooling radiator, and the outlet end of the cylinder head cooling water passage is connected through a three-way valve to the upper end of a cylinder head cooling radiator and a pipe fitting. Upon the increase of the temperature of the cooling water for cooling the cylinder head to a predetermined temperature, a CPU provides a control signal to a servomotor to close a port of the three-way valve connected to the pipe fitting and to open a port of the three-way valve connected to the cylinder head cooling radiator.
Abstract:
A throttle-valve control apparatus is provided for allowing switching from an ordinary-combustion state to an AR-combustion state or vice versa to take place with ease in an AR-combustible spark-ignition two-cycle engine wherein, at least during a light-load operation, a compression-start pressure is properly controlled in order to let fresh air in a combustion chamber self-ignite so as to undergo active thermal atmosphere combustion. A throttle drum is linked to a throttle grip through a wire. The throttle drum is also linked to a throttle valve through a linking mechanism. An arm forms a single body with the throttle drum. An adjustment screw is fixed at the end of the arm. A cam is supported at such a location that the cam can be brought into contact with the adjustment screw. A pulley forms a single body with the cam. A cable which is wound around the pulley is linked to a throttle-valve servo motor. In ordinary combustion ignited by spark ignition, the cam is erected, preventing the throttle opening rate .theta..sub.th of the throttle valve from decreasing to a value smaller than, typically, 17%.

Abstract:
An exhaust passage for connecting to an exhaust port of a cylinder is provided. The exhaust passage includes a first path extending in a direction generally orthogonal to the central axis of the exhaust port. A second path connects the first path and the exhaust poil and a control valve is provided in the first path. The rotational axis of the exhaust control valve is generally parallel to the direction in which the first path extends. The surface area of an opening connecting the first path and the second path is variable as the exhaust control valve rotates, so as to carry out controlled combustion and exhaust timing. This makes it unnecessary to provide a hollow section for housing an exhaust control valve and bearing at a position close to the exhaust. It is also possible to reduce the size of a cylinder block and to realize smooth flow of exhaust gases by making the inner peripheral surface of the exhaust passage smooth.

A combustion controller for a two-cycle engine which enables to cause self firing always at the optimum timing is provided. The combustion controller comprises an exhaust control valve 15 provided in the vicinity of an exhaust port 7 of the two-cycle engine 1 and capable of fully closing the exhaust port and driving control means 47, 38, 39, 40 and 37 to drive the exhaust control valve 15 according to a control map giving an exhaust opening ratio .theta..sub.e depending at least on the engine speed and the throttle valve opening ratio .theta..sub.th in order to control the pressure in the cylinder during up-stroke of the piston 8. The exhaust control valve 15 is formed by a thin shell-like member comprising an exhaust control portion 35 substantially along the cylinder curvature in the exhaust port 7 and wider than the whole width of the exhaust port and a swinging arm portion 34 for connecting at least a side of the exhaust control portion and the rotational shaft 33 perpendicular to the cylinder axis and accommodated in a receiving recess formed in the cylinder block. This receiving recess is communicated with the exhaust passage extending from the exhaust port 7 only in the working zone of the exhaust control portion.
Abstract:
The present invention aims at developing a deinking method applicable to the deinking of, for example, waste OA (office automation) paper and telephone directories, whereby a deinked pulp having a high whiteness and little contamination with large ink spots and unliberated ink can be obtained. The object of the present invention can be achieved by deinking, for example, waste OA paper or telephone directories by using a deinking composition containing as an effective component a reaction mixture (III) obtained by conducting the addition reaction of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide with a mixture (I) comprising a fat and oil (a) and a mono- to hexahydric alcohol (b) and/or with a transesterification mixture (II) obtained by conducting the transesterification reaction of a fat and oil (a) with a mono- to hexahydric alcohol (b), in such a manner that the molar ratio of ethylene oxide to propylene oxide which are used as starting materials ranges from 0.8 to 1.2 and that the molar number of ethylene oxide which is used for the addition reaction ranges from 50 to 100 mol per mole of the fat and oil (a).

Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for monitoring the flow rate of oil that is injected into a two-stroke internal combustion engine where the oil is injected independently of the gasoline. According to the invention, the oil flow rate is based on a temperature that represents the heat load of the engine. More specifically, this temperature can be that of an element that constitutes the engine, such as that of the spark plug gasket.
