Abstract: A muffler includes a first chamber, a second chamber, an extender tube, a reverse flow tube, and a separation chamber. The first chamber is coupled to an exhaust inlet of the muffler. The extender tube is coupled to the first chamber and the second chamber. The exhaust gas flows from the first chamber to the second chamber through the extender tube in a first direction. The reverse flow tube coupled to the second chamber. The exhaust gas flows through the second chamber from the extender tube to the reverse flow tube in a second direction different than the first direction. The separation chamber that provides spatial separation between the first and second chamber.

Abstract: A balance system for a single cylinder engine is described. The single cylinder engine generates forces, that if left unbalanced, cause significant vibrations or movement to the single cylinder engine and devices driven by the single cylinder engine. The balance shaft includes a primary balance shaft for a first type of forces and at least one secondary balance shaft for a second type of forces. The secondary balance shaft is driven directly by the primary balance shaft. In one example, only one secondary balance shaft may be used, which may leave some forces unbalanced but is more space and cost effective. In another example, two or more secondary balance shafts may be included in a drive chain such that one secondary balance shaft drive the next secondary balance shaft.

Abstract translation: 描述了用于单缸发动机的平衡系统。 单缸发动机产生力，如果不平衡，则会对单缸发动机和由单缸发动机驱动的装置造成显着的振动或运动。 平衡轴包括用于第一类力的主平衡轴和用于第二类力的至少一个次平衡轴。 二次平衡轴由主平衡轴直接驱动。 在一个示例中，可以仅使用一个二次平衡轴，其可能留下一些不平衡的力，但是具有更大的空间和成本效益。 在另一示例中，两个或更多个次级平衡轴可以包括在驱动链中，使得一个次级平衡轴驱动下一个次级平衡轴。
