摘要:
A cooling system for a marine propulsion device provides a closed portion of the cooling system which recirculates coolant through the engine block and cylinder head, the exhaust manifold, and the exhaust elbow. It provides a pressure relief cap connected to the exhaust elbow and a low velocity portion of the coolant jacket of the exhaust elbow to facilitate the release of gas and coolant when pressures exceed a preselected magnitude.
摘要:
An exhaust system for a marine propulsion system includes first through fifth exhaust conduit members, including a pair of serially connected marine exhaust elbows laterally spanning the engine.
摘要:
A catalyst system for a marine engine incorporates a catalyst device within a housing structure. The catalyst device has a rim portion that is disposed within first and second flange surfaces of first and second housing structures. A gasket is provided which is configured to have an opening that allows the rim portion of the catalyst device to be constrained between the first and second flange portions but not between the gasket and either of the first and second flange surfaces.
摘要:
The exhaust system for a marine engine provides a concentricity spacer located between an outer surface of a generally tubular member of a catalyst device and an inner surface of a generally tubular cavity formed within a catalyst housing structure. The concentricity spacer is shaped to allow fluid to pass through the spacer in a direction generally parallel to a central axis of the tubular member.

A high flow intake system for a horizontal pump skid installation is provided for reducing cavitation and for eliminating a necessity to have a booster pump. A pump inlet assembly has a collar that is affixed to a horizontal pump body proximate a pump intake. The pump inlet assembly has a plurality, e.g., four, inlet members that protrude from the collar member at an angle, preferably, 30 degrees, from a longitudinal axis of the pump body. Each of a plurality of hoses is connected to one of the plurality of inlet members. A distribution manifold has an inlet and a plurality of outlets that receive the second ends of the hoses. Preferably, each of the hoses has a length that is at least 20 times an inner diameter so that fluid passing through each of the hoses develops laminar flow.

摘要:
A support system for a marine engine provides a plurality of mounts that have primary axes that are aligned in parallel relation with a piston symmetry plane of the engine. These primary axes of the mounts are also aligned with the central axes of the cylinders of the engine. This arrangement improves the damping function of the mounts and more effectively isolates engine vibrations from the marine vessel.
