    摘要: There is provided a variable valve timing system for an engine in which a cam chain chamber is formed in a cylinder and a cylinder head, the variable valve timing system including: a variable valve device configured to change an opening and closing timing of a valve; and an oil control valve configured to control a hydraulic pressure with respect to the variable valve device. The oil control valve is disposed on an outer surface of the cylinder, which is an outer wall of the cam chain chamber. An oil path for hydraulic pressure control enters the outer wall of the cam chain chamber from the oil control valve, extends from a side of the cylinder to a side of the cylinder head, and crosses the cam chain chamber to the variable valve device through an inner wall of the cam chain chamber.

    摘要: A water jacket includes: a cooling channel through which a coolant flows, the cooling channel being formed in a cylinder block in which a plurality of cylinders are formed such that the cooling channel is positioned outside the cylinders; and a cooling groove (slit) through which the coolant flows, the cooling groove being formed between adjacent ones of the cylinders. When a slit end portion is viewed in sectional view in a direction in which the cylinders are arranged, the slit end portion and a cylinder-block inner wall are continuous with each other via an inclined portion inclined so as to become thicker toward the cylinder-block inner wall.

    摘要: A cylinder block defines a cylinder, in which a piston is reciprocated. The cylinder includes an upper bore, a center bore, and a lower bore arranged in order from proximity to a cylinder head in the axial direction of the cylinder. The inner diameter of the center bore is greater than the inner diameters of the upper bore and the lower bore. The cylinder block defines an upper recess that serves as an upper water jacket surrounding the upper bore and a lower recess that serves as a lower water jacket surrounding the lower bore. The upper recess and the lower recess are spaced apart from each other in the axial direction of the cylinder so as to sandwich a spacer.

    摘要: A cylinder bore wall thermal insulator is installed in a groove-like coolant passage of a cylinder block having cylinder bores in an internal combustion engine to insulate the entire bore wall of all the cylinder bores or part of the bore wall of all the cylinder bores. The thermal insulator includes: a base member made of a synthetic resin and having a shape conforming to the shape of the groove-like coolant passage at the installation position of the thermal insulator; a cylinder bore wall thermal insulating member formed of a heat-expandable rubber and affixed to the inside of the base member; and a cylinder bore opposite wall contact member formed of a heat-expandable rubber and affixed to the outside of the base member. A thermal insulator can be obtained which is less likely to be displaced in the groove-like coolant passage, and is readily manufactured.

    摘要: A heat retention material cartridge fixed to a base member of a heat retention tool of a cylinder bore's bore wall for heat retention of the cylinder bore wall, which includes a thermosensitive expansion rubber, a back-side pressing member, a rectangular opening, a front-side abutting plate cooperative with the back-side pressing member for sandwiching an outer edge portion of the thermosensitive expansion rubber, and an elastic member attached member to which an elastic member is attached. A convex portion being convex toward the side of the back-side pressing member is formed in a portion of the front-side abutting plate where the outer end is not sandwiched by bendable portions. And, the outer edge portion of the thermosensitive expansion rubber is formed in such a manner that the outer end of the thermosensitive expansion rubber is positioned inside an apex of the convex portion.

    摘要: A cylinder liner that is casted in a block and defines a cylinder bore for one cylinder includes: a cylindrical liner body; a projection part including a plurality of projections on an outer peripheral surface of a part of the liner body; and a bore adjacent part inclined at a predetermined angle to an axial direction of the body and extending in the inclination direction, at a predetermined part between an upper side end and a lower side end of the body, of the outer peripheral surface of the body, which faces another cylinder bore to be adjacent when casted in the block. The outer peripheral surface of the bore adjacent part is positioned more on an inner side of the body than the outer peripheral surface above and below, and is formed such that the projections are absent on at least a part of the outer peripheral surface.
