摘要:
An air-cooled, reciprocating piston, internal combustion engine has at least two adjacent cylinder barrels with a plurality of cooling ribs lying substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the barrels on at least part of the periphery thereof. The intake ports of the cylinder heads are located on the cooling air inlet side while the exhaust ports are located on the cooling air outlet side, and an air deflection cover overlies the cylinder barrels on the cooling air outlet side. The cylinder barrels are provided on the cooling air outlet side with cooling ribs lying substantially parallel to the longitudinal axes of the cylinder barrels. The air deflecting cover is of a configuration such that at least some of the cooling air flowing, in the area adjoining the crankcase, around and between adjacent cylinder barrels, is deflected toward these parallel lying ribs, so that essentially the total flow of cooling air supplied may be used to cool the hottest area of a cylinder barrels.

A reed type valve is operatively secured on the outer surface of the casing of an engine air filter assembly to supply the exhaust system of an engine with secondary air. The reed valve is fluidly connected to an air induction passage formed interior of the casing of the air filter assembly. A resonance chamber is also formed interior of the casing and communicated through a communication passage with the air induction passage so as to attenuate a relatively low frequency component of exhaust noise transmitted through the reed valve. The air induction passage, resonance chamber and communication passage are formed as follows: ##EQU1## where, S.sub.o (cm.sup.2)=the cross-sectional area of the air induction passageS(cm.sup.2)=the cross-sectional area of the communication passagel(cm)=the length of the communication passageV(cm.sup.3)=the volume of the resonance chamberM=the number of the engine cylinders of the engine.
摘要:
A cylinder head assembly for an internal combustion engine includes lower and upper decks and connecting walls defining a coolant chamber with a plurality of exhaust ports for each cylinder extending through the coolant chamber to the lower deck. A longitudinally extending partial intermediate deck intersects the exhaust port walls and partially defines upper and lower sections of the coolant chamber. Connecting walls enclose portions of the lower section of the chamber intermediate the exhaust ports of adjacent cylinders. Adequate support for cores used in casting the main body of the cylinder head is provided through openings connecting the enclosed portions of the coolant chamber with the remaining lower portions and upper section. At assembly, tubular inserts are installed in these openings to block communication of the enclosed chamber portion with the remaining portions and to direct coolant flow into the enclosed portion from an external supply. The arrangement forces coolant to flow between the adjacent exhaust ports and around the fuel injector tube at each cylinder position before passing to other portions of the coolant chamber.
