    摘要: A tensioner for an endless transmitting member is provided to reliably prevent the loosening of an endless chain, while preventing the occurrence of an incorrect meshing of the endless chain with sprockets. A plunger holder is biased in an advancing direction by the action of a first spring supported in a housing, and a plunger, carried in the plunger holder, is biased in an advancing direction by the action of a second spring having a spring constant larger than that of the first spring. Only the movement of the plunger holder in the advancing direction is permitted by a ratchet mechanism mounted between the plunger holder and the housing. During operation of the engine, the advancing movement of the plunger holder is inhibited by the hydraulic pressure transmitted to a hydraulic pressure chamber, and the plunger is advanced and retracted in accordance with a variation in tension of the endless chain. When the engine is stopped, the ratchet mechanism is operated in accordance with the elongation of the endless chain due to wearing to advance the plunger holder one pitch at a time along with the plunger.

    摘要: An engine has two balancer shafts supported on two bearing bushings which are made of the same material and mounted to a balancer holder. Lubricating oil passages for supplying oil to the bearing bushings are defined offset upwards from the centers O of the bearing bushings and by a distance .delta.. Each of the bearing bushings has two oil bores having a center angle .theta. other than 180.degree.. The two oil bores in the bearing bushing of one balancer shaft communicate with the lubricating oil passage, and one of the oil bores in the bearing bushing of another balancer shaft communicates with the lubricating oil passage, while the other oil bore of that another balancer shaft is closed to keep out of the lubricating oil passage. Thus, downstream ends of the lubricating oil passages for supplying the oil to the bearing bushings of the plurality of rotary shafts can be closed without use of a special closing member such as a blind plug.

    摘要: The interior of a chain case 23 accommodating therein a chain-sprocket mechanism (a sprocket 12 and a silent chain 14)provided for rotating a crankshaft 11 and camshafts 5 in an interlocking fashion and a tensioner shoe 18 for applying a predetermined tension to a slack side of a chain or a guide shoe 19 for preventing the run-out of the chain on a stretched side thereof is partitioned by providing a rib 27, 28 so as to protrude from at least either of an end face of an engine E and an inner surface of a chain cover 22 joined to the end face with distal end edges of the ribs being directed toward sides 18a, 18b of the tensioner shoe or the guide shoe that are perpendicular to the crankshaft. According to this construction, since the rib provided so as to protrude from the cylinder block or the chain cover cooperates with the tensioner shoe or the guide shoe so as to form a separator, an oil passage having a sufficient cross-sectional area can be defined without control from the chain line and necessity of enlargement of the engine.

    摘要: A secondary balancer device provided below a cylinder block of an engine including a front balancer shaft and a rear balancer shaft which are rotated in opposite directions and have longitudinally central main journal portions carried in a balancer holder, respectively. Bracing journal portions are provided on axial ends of one of the front and rear balancer shafts and supported in a pump body and a pump cover of an oil pump provided below the cylinder block, respectively. A pump shaft of the oil pump and the front balancer shaft are connected to a crankshaft by a common endless chain and rotated at different numbers of revolutions. Thus, the number of parts for supporting the balancer shafts can be reduced, while maintaining the freedom of setting the number of revolutions of the oil pump of the engine.

    摘要: An oil passage structure in an engine includes a first oil passage and a second oil passage. The second oil passage has a hydraulic pressure which is different from that in the first oil passage. The first and second oil passages are provided in engine body in an arrangement where they intersect each other when viewed in projection onto a plane parallel to an axis of the first oil passage. In order to enable the space for disposition of both the oil passages to be reduced to a necessary minimum to provide a reduction in size of the engine body, a cylindrical partition member having annular seal members mounted on its outer surface at opposite ends is fitted into the first oil passage. Thus, an annular intermediate chamber is defined between the outer surface of the partition member and an inner surface of the first oil passage and is sealed at its opposite ends by the seal members. The second oil passage is provided in the engine body in an arrangement where upstream and downstream passage portion thereof communicate with each other through the intermediate chamber.
