Abstract: A pan system suitable for an engine housing structure has trough-shaped inner and outer pans with bottoms and upright walls. The inner pan accommodates engine oil. The outer pan bottom and upright walls run at least in certain areas at a distance from the bottom and walls of the inner pan, forming a channel-like intermediate space containing engine for affecting the temperature of the inner pan. Fins are provided on the inner walls and the outer walls. The bottoms of the inner and outer pans interact through a supporting system. Preferably, the inner and outer pans are made of metallic material and the inner pan is provided at least on one inner side of the bottom and upright walls with a cooling fin system that optimizes heat transfer. The upright walls of the inner and outer pans are connected to the engine housing structure.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine has at least one piston which performs stroke movements in a cylinder crankcase. Via two connecting rods, the piston interacts with two parallel crankshafts which rotate synchronously in opposite directions. The connecting rods have, on a side facing toward a piston crown of the piston, bearing eyelets which, via piston pins, are operatively connected to the first and second bearings provided at opposite first and second sides of the piston, which bearings and piston pins act as a device for compensating an asymmetry of the profile of the crankshafts. To optimize the internal combustion engine, the first and the second bearings have cylindrical bearing disks which, firstly, are rotatably mounted in piston bores and which, secondly, include disk bores for receiving first and second pin sections of the piston pins.

Abstract: A drive unit is situated between a first wheel axle and a second wheel axle and has an internal-combustion engine with a crankshaft system including a horizontally oriented crankshaft, which crankshaft acts upon a continuously variable transmission system which drives wheels of the first wheel axle and of the second wheel axle. The crankshaft is caused to rotate by at least one piston of the engine. The crankshaft interacts with a first set of V-pulleys of the transmission system, which first set of V-pulleys, by way of a first drive shaft, is connected with a first differential of the first wheel axle. The first set of V-pulleys, by way of an endless member, is in an operative connection with a set of V-pulleys which, with the interposition of a second drive shaft, influences a second differential of the second wheel axle.

Abstract: A connecting device is provided between a turbine housing of an exhaust turbocharger and an exhaust manifold housing of an internal combustion engine. The turbine housing and the exhaust manifold housing are kept in position via a band clamp which acts with first and second limbs, which are oriented in a V shaped manner in cross section and are connected via a web, on supporting devices, which are attached to outer circumferences of the turbine housing and of the exhaust manifold housing, and are configured in the manner of first and second ring flanges placed on each other, such that, firstly, first and second clamping surfaces of the limbs are operatively connected to third and fourth clamping surfaces of the supporting devices on first and second connecting planes, and, secondly, first and second radial supporting surfaces are operatively connected to each other on a supporting plane of the supporting devices. An intermediate ring is effective between the second clamping surface of the second limb and an inner supporting surface of the second edge flange. The intermediate ring is clamped against the inner supporting surface of the second ring flange via the second and fourth clamping surfaces and a clamping surface portion of the intermediate ring.

Abstract: A pivoting bearing is provided for two connecting rods in a reciprocating piston of an internal combustion engine having two crankshafts which are driven via the reciprocating piston and the connecting rods. The pivoting bearing is received by piston bores of the piston and has gudgeon pin bores for mounting gudgeon pins for gudgeon pin eyes of the connecting rods. The pivoting bearing has radial bearing regions which are provided with the pin bores, are arranged on both sides of a center longitudinal axis of the reciprocating pistons, and delimit the gudgeon pin eyes in a manner which forms an intermediate space. To optimize the pivoting bearing, the bearing regions of the pivoting bearing are configured as cylinder bodies with a cup-like cross section, of which each cylinder body has a base wall and a bearing ring shell. The base walls of the two cylinder bodies extend at a spacing from one another, and the bearing ring shells which surround the base walls are guided away from the base walls in opposite directions. A plurality of connecting stubs run between the base walls in such a way that two connecting stubs are arranged on a side of the pivoting bearing, which side faces a piston crown, and extend at a relatively small spacing from ring sections of the gudgeon pin eyes, and in such a way that the connecting stubs and the ring sections have lubricating structures for lubricating connecting rod bearings of the connecting rods.

Abstract: A fan is suitable for an air-guiding system of an outboard motor including an internal combustion engine and a covering hood bounding an engine interior space. The engine drives the fan, which is connected to an upright shaft journal projecting beyond an upper side of a housing of the engine. The covering hood has air flow openings, and the fan influences the air flows in the covering hood interior space. A flywheel, fixedly attached to the upright shaft journal, carries a fan wheel of the fan. The fan wheel is set in place from above, and the flywheel carries the fan wheel for conjoint rotation. Airflows enter the interior space via an inlet opening and a first conducting device, and the airflows, under the action of the fan, act upon at least parts of surfaces of the internal combustion engine and the auxiliary units to cool the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A pivot bearing suitable for two connecting rods in at least one piston of an internal combustion engine having two crankshafts, includes radial bearing regions that are provided with bolt boreholes and are disposed on either side of a center longitudinal plane of the piston and delimit connecting rod ends, forming an intermediate space. The bearing regions are designed as cylinder bodies having a crucible-like cross-section, of which each cylinder body has a base wall and a bearing ring jacket. The base walls of the two cylinder bodies extend at a distance from each other, and the bearing ring jackets surrounding the base walls are guided away from the base walls in opposite directions. One or more connecting supports run between the base walls. The bearing ring jackets cooperate with the piston boreholes in a rotatably movable manner. The base walls are connected to bearing bushings which are oriented in the axial direction of the pivot bearing and into which the bolt boreholes are incorporated. The pivot bearing is made of a material that brings about a targeted low-weight construction of the pivot bearing, while offering high strength and low wear.

Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation system is provided for an internal combustion engine having reciprocating piston design with an exhaust gas turbocharger unit having an exhaust gas turbine and a supercharger. The internal combustion engine has a machine housing accommodating one or more cylinders having reciprocating pistons, which is provided with a suction unit and an exhaust gas outlet unit, which is connected to the exhaust gas turbine by way of an exhaust gas line. The exhaust gas line supplies at least a part of the exhaust gas stream to the suction unit via the exhaust gas recirculation system. To optimize the exhaust gas recirculation system, it has a pipe branch, which is connected to the exhaust gas line and is connected to an exhaust gas recirculation line with a control element interconnected. The exhaust gas recirculation line extends, on the one hand, with a first supply line section outside and, on the other hand, with a second supply line section in an interior of, a suction unit container of the suction unit. An exhaust gas stream is conveyed by the second supply line section into the suction unit container for targeted mixing of exhaust gases with the air volume contained in the suction unit container.
