    摘要: An apparatus (201) and method for controlling intake valves (23) in an internal combustion engine (5), as well as an internal combustion engine and a vehicle comprising the apparatus, and an electronic processor for performing the method is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a hydraulic system (3) configured to hydraulically actuate a first intake valve (23a) and a second intake valve (23b) of a first combustion chamber (25) of an internal combustion engine (5). The apparatus also includes a controller (9) configured to control the hydraulic system (3) in at least a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation. In the first mode of operation, the controller (9) is configured to control the hydraulic system (3) to cause lifting of the first and second intake valves (23a, 23b) of the first combustion chamber (25) during each intake stroke of a respective cylinder piston (27). In the second mode of operation, the controller (9) is configured to control the hydraulic system (3) to cause lifting of the first intake valve (23a) of the first combustion chamber (25) during an intake stroke of the respective cylinder piston (27) and disable actuation of the second intake valve (23b) of the first combustion chamber (25) during that intake stroke.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an apparatus for increasing the flow rate in an engine pipe, and a processing method therefor and, more specifically, to an apparatus for increasing the flow rate in an engine pipe, the apparatus being provided in an engine pipe so as to define a circular flow of a gas by maximizing a circular flow length of the flowing gas, enabling the gas to flow circularly along an outer surface of a flow rate increasing tube body, preventing the occurrence of a vortex due to the collision of the gas flowing in the inside and the outside of the flow rate increasing tube body, and preventing the occurrence of noise and the like since the flow rate increasing tube body is firmly fixed to the pipe.

    摘要: A control system of a compression-ignition engine is provided, which includes an engine configured to cause combustion of a mixture gas inside the combustion chamber, an injector attached to the engine and configured to inject fuel into the combustion chamber, a spark plug disposed to be oriented into the combustion chamber and configured to ignite the mixture gas inside the combustion chamber, and a controller connected to the injector and the spark plug and configured to operate the engine by outputting a control signal to the injector and the spark plug, respectively. After the spark plug ignites the mixture gas to start combustion, unburned mixture gas combusts by self-ignition. The controller outputs the control signal to the injector so that a fuel injection timing is advanced when the engine operates at a high speed than at a low speed.

    摘要: An internal combustion engine comprising: an intake opening; an exhaust opening; and a mask part having a wall surface extending toward the inside of the combustion chamber along an outer periphery of the intake opening at an opposite side from the exhaust opening side. The wall surface of the mask part is formed so that a clearance from a passage surface of an edge part of the intake valve at an edge part at the lift direction side is greater than the clearance at the edge part at the opposite lift direction side, and so that between the edge part at the lift direction side and the edge part at the opposite lift direction side, the clearance is a value between the clearance at the edge part at the lift direction side and the clearance at the edge part at the opposite lift direction side.
