摘要:
An internal combustion engine includes a piston (2) and a crankshaft (33). The crankshaft (33) includes: a journal (33A) as a rotation center; a crank pin (33B) that is located eccentrically with respect to the journal (33A) and rotates integrally with the journal (33A), the crank pin (33b) connecting the piston (2) to the crankshaft (33); and a counter weight (33C) that is located eccentrically with respect to the journal (33A) in a direction opposite to the crank pin (33) and rotates uniformly with the journal (33A). A cutout (11) through which the counter weight (33C) passes is formed in a wall (1) of a cylinder bore that accommodates the piston (2) so as to be free to move reciprocally along the wall (1). As a result, the bottom dead center position of the piston can be lowered, and the overall height of the engine can be decreased.

In an internal combustion engine, a piston reciprocating in a cylinder and a crankshaft are linked with each other by a piston-crank linking mechanism. The crankshaft includes a counterweight. When the piston is located in the proximity of a bottom dead center, an outermost portion of the counterweight crosses an imaginary extension line extended from a piston pin in an axial direction of the piston pin.

In a variable compression ratio mechanism for an internal combustion engine employing an upper link, a lower link, and a control link, the lower link includes a crankpin bearing portion into which a crankpin is fitted, a first connecting-pin bearing portion into which a first connecting pin for the upper link is fitted, and a second connecting-pin bearing portion into which a second connecting pin for the control link is fitted. A central connecting portion is provided to connect an axial central portion of at least one of the first and second connecting-pin bearing portions to an axial central portion of the crankpin bearing portion. The central connecting portion has an axial length L1 shorter than each of an axial length L2 of the crankpin bearing portion, an axial length L3 of the first connecting-pin bearing portion, and an axial length L4 of the second connecting-pin bearing portion.

A lower link for a piston crank mechanism of an internal combustion engine includes an upper section, a lower section, and a crank pin bearing section disposed between the upper section and the lower section, and mounted on a crank pin of a crank shaft. One of the upper section and the lower section is formed with a bolt inserting hole. The other of the upper section and the lower section is formed with an internal thread portion including an open end. One of the bolts passes through the bolt inserting hole, is screwed into the internal thread portion, and includes an end bared from the open end which is formed in a surface perpendicular to a bolt center axis. The other of the upper section and the lower section includes a recessed portion formed in the surface to divert a stress transmitting path.

A control system for an internal combustion engine is provided which comprises a compression ratio control mechanism and a control unit for controlling the compression ratio control mechanism. The control unit including an acceleration parameter obtaining section for obtaining an acceleration parameter corresponding to a change of an engine speed, an acceleration determining section for determining whether the engine is in a slow or fast acceleration state on the basis of the acceleration parameter, and a control section for controlling at least one of a compression ratio change speed at which the engine compression ratio during engine acceleration is changed and a compression ratio change start time at which a change of the engine compression ratio during engine acceleration is started, on the basis of whether the engine is in a slow or fast acceleration state. A control method is also provided.

A piston crank mechanism has an upper link coupled to a piston by a piston pin, a lower link having a crankpin journal, wherein the crankpin journal is coupled to a crankpin of a crankshaft and is coupled to the upper link by an upper pin, and a control link is coupled to an eccentric cam of a control shaft that is supported by an engine block and coupled to a control pin boss by a control pin. The crankpin journal of the lower link is arranged and dimensioned relative to the upper pin such that a projection area defined by projecting the width of the upper pin along a direction line passing through a center of the piston pin and a center of the upper pin does not obscure an area defined by the crankpin during operation of the crankshaft as viewed in an axial direction of the crankpin.

A lower link for an engine piston crank mechanism includes first and second half members joined by bolts to form a crankpin bearing portion. The first half member includes a first pin boss portion to connect the lower link with a first link which is one of an upper link connected with a piston and a control link having one end mounted swingably on the engine. The second half member includes a second pin boss portion to connect the lower link with a second link which is the other of the upper link and the control link, and an internally threaded portion into which one bolt is screwed. The second half member further includes a load transfer portion which is made greater in rigidity than the internally threaded portion.

A lower link of a double link type piston crank mechanism comprises a crank pin bearing housing portion that is adapted to receive a crank pin of a crankshaft and defines a first contour, an upper pin receiving bore portion that is adapted to receive an upper pin of an upper link and defines a second contour, a control pin receiving bore portion that is adapted to receive a control pin of a control link and defines a third contour, and a given portion that has therein an internally threaded bore formed in one of upper and lower half-parts of the lower link and a bored portion formed in the other of the upper and lower half-parts of the lower link, the given portion defining a fourth contour. The upper and lower half-parts are coupled by a bolt that passes through the bored portion and is engaged with the internally threaded bore. The lower link has further radially projected portions that extend radially outward beyond an imaginary minimum reference contour that is provided by connecting outer edge portions of the first, second, third and fourth contours with a continuous line.
