摘要:
The present invention concerns an engine comprising at least one working cylinder (1) which has valves (16) and/or nozzles for the feed or injection of fuel and air and for the outlet of exhaust gas and a method of operating such an engine. In order to provide an engine and a corresponding method by which the fuel is used considerably more efficiently without excessively high temperatures occurring, which entail the risk of misfires, it is proposed according to the invention that each working cylinder (1) is coupled to a subsequent cylinder (11) which is driven by the pressure of hot exhaust gases from the working cylinder (1) and which is so designed and arranged that on the other hand it feeds pre-compressed combustion air to the working cylinder (1), a cooling device (17) which cools the pre-compressed gas, a device (9, 7) for transferring the cooled pre-compressed gas into the working cylinder (1) and a transfer valve (16) which for a further stroke of the subsequent cylinder (1) transfers exhaust gas under pressure from the working cylinder (1) into the subsequent cylinder (11).

A split-cycle engine includes a compression cylinder having a first volume for a first working fluid and a second volume for a second working fluid, the first volume and second volume being separated by the compression piston, an expansion cylinder having a first volume for the first working fluid and a second volume for the second working fluid, the first volume and second volume being separated by the expansion piston, and a fluid coupling between the second volume of the compression cylinder and the second volume of the expansion cylinder, wherein the two second volumes and the fluid coupling provide a closed volume for the second working fluid, wherein the fluid coupling includes a regenerator arranged such that the two second volumes are thermally decoupled.

Disclosed herein is a novel ICE termed the Leaschauer Engine (LE). The Leaschauer Engine (LE) is a single or multiple step compression cycle ICE machine, employing the Pressure/Heat Detonation Principle (Diesel Principle). The Leaschauer Engine differs significantly from a conventional ICE machine by its ability to employ extreme combustion pressure to achieve high combustion efficiency operation without risking a pre-detonation condition.

A two-stroke or four-stroke internal combustion engine operates by admitting a carburated mixture or by admitting fresh air with the direct or indirect injection of fuel. The engine has at least one cylinder, which defines a variable-volume combustion chamber in which an engine piston, coupled by a connecting rod to the wrist pin of a crankshaft, executes a reciprocating movement. A compressor associated with each cylinder to supercharge the cylinder with carbureted mixture or with fresh air has at least one stage and, in the compression chamber, a compressor piston moves and is coupled to the crankshaft by a link rod articulated to an eccentric mounted on the shaft of the crankshaft.

A metered induction two cycle engine is presented. In accordance with the metered induction two cycle engine, an aspirating cylinder (or pulsing air-charger) is connected to a combustion cylinder by a voluminous transport duct having a valve disposed therein. The valve permits flow from the aspirating cylinder and duct to the combustion cylinder and prohibits flow in the opposite direction. The duct acts as an extension of the clearance volume of the aspirating cylinder. The valve is actuated when the pressure in the duct exceeds the pressure in the combustion cylinder. Further, the aspirating cylinder leads the combustion cylinder by a fixed amount to provide a disciplined flow of mixture (i.e., air and fuel) into the combustion cylinder.

An internal combustion engine power unit comprises two power cylinders (3, 4) spaced equidistant about a pumping cylinder (5). All cylinders operate on two-stroke cycles, the power cylinders (3, 4) having a phase difference of 180.degree.. Power piston assemblies (13, 14) in the power cylinders (3, 4) drive crankshaft (1). Pumping piston (16) and separate crankshaft (2) are driven at twice the cyclic speed of the power pistons (13, 14) and crankshaft (1) through gear train (6, 7) between the respective crankshafts (1, 2). Air inducted into pumping cylinder (5) via intake ports (20) is compressed and passed alternately to power cylinders (3, 4) via valve controlled transfer passages (21, 24). All valves, ports and gas passages are found in a cylinder head (19). Timed fuel injection and ignition are provided. An engine may comprise one or more power units. There is also disclosed a turbo-charged diesel engine comprising two power units in "V" configuration.
