摘要： A modular engine design system utilizes selectively replaceable components whereby a family of related engines having varying power outputs may be produced. A first series of engines utilizes a common piston operable in a cylinder of first predetermined dimensions. The engine design may utilize a first or second crankshaft/connecting rod combination to vary the power output. A modified engine design utilizes a second cylinder in addition to the first cylinder. A second series of engines utilizes a larger piston operable in a cylinder of second predetermined dimensions. The second series of engines shares a common engine design scheme with the first series of engines. However, corresponding parts are adapted for use with the larger piston/cylinder combination. The second series of engines may likewise utilize a first or second crankshaft/connecting rod combination to vary the power output.

摘要： A V-2 engine includes two cylinder blocks mounted to a crankcase such that the respective cylinder axes of the cylinder blocks extend at an angle to each other and merge together at the axis of a crankshaft with the angle formed between the cylinder axes being divided into two angle parts by a centerline of the crankcase passing through the axis of the crankshaft, and an auxiliary machine mounted to the crankcase on the same side as one of the cylinder blocks when viewed from the axis of the crankshaft. In order to reduce the maximum width of the engine, the cylinder blocks are offset from a symmetric position with respect to the centerline of the crankcase to such an extent that a straight line circumscribing an outer end of a head cover attached to the one cylinder block and an outer end of the auxiliary machine is in parallel to the centerline of the crankcase.

摘要： A radial cam driven internal combustion engine has connecting rod guide pins that slide into ends of the connecting rods, allowing the connecting rods to slide freely linearly while applying side loads on the connecting rods to the crankcase. The stationary guide pins protrude out from a center ring that floats over the central drive shaft. These pins are grooved to allow the pressure inside the connecting rod to escape. Each piston dwells at top dead center long enough to create a fixed volume environment and for all the fuel in the cylinder to be consumed.

摘要： An odd-cylinder V-type internal combustion engine including 2n+1 cylinders (n is a natural number) arranged in two banks and pistons fitted in the cylinders has a crankshaft provided with n common crankpins (KC) each connected to the two paired pistons respectively belonging to the two banks, and one odd crankpin (KS) connected to the one unpaired piston. The common crankpins (KC) are disposed at the same phase. Bank angle &thgr; between the two banks meets &thgr;=cos−1(½n). The odd crankpin (KS) is disposed (180−&thgr;)° behind the common crank pins (KC) with respect to the rotating direction of the crankshaft when the unpaired piston belongs to the front bank with respect to the rotating direction of the crankshaft. Reciprocating parts including all the pistons fitted in the cylinders have the same mass (M), and the crankshaft is provided with balance weight means capable of generating a balancing force of kMr&ohgr;2 acting in a sense of (&agr;+180)°, where: k = ( 1 2 ⁢ 1 - 1 4 ⁢ n 2 ) 2 + ( n - 1 4 ⁢ n ) 2 α = sin - 1 ( 1 2 ⁢ 1 - 1 4 ⁢ n 2 k ) &agr;: Angle from the common crankpins in the rotating direction M: Mass of each reciprocating part r: Crank throw &ohgr;: Angular velocity of the crankshaft The odd-cylinder V-type internal combustion engine prevents generation of a primary vibration caused by a primary inertial force without entailing increase in weight and size.

摘要： A radial piston engine is disclosed wherein power is transferred such that the power take-off is truly balanced, where the piston runs truly parallel to the cylinder walls. This concept reduces wear of the cylinders and piston rings. The engine provides improved gas mileage due to the reduced piston drag. One unique feature is the power take-off from the piston to the flywheels. The design takes power from inside the cylinder compartment, through four transfer arms, to cams that in turn transfer the power to two flywheels. By firing complimentary cylinders 180 degrees at the same time, almost no vibration is noticed. Also, since the cylinders can fire many times per flywheel rotation, the torque which this engine produces is greater other designs. Any number of cylinders is possible. Single cylinders and two cylinder designs with chain power take-offs are also possible for lawnmowers and motorcycles.

摘要： A torque transmitting device having a rotating shaft and a gear connected to the shaft. The gear transmits the torque between the rotating shaft and the gear. A splined portion and a centering inner circumferential surface portion formed in the inner periphery of the gear are engaged with the splined portion and the centering outer circumferential surface portion formed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft. This arrangement minimizes noise due to gear runout, and reduces wear in the gear.
