  • Publication number: 20060169225
    Abstract: Crankcase scavenged two-stroke internal combustion engine (1), in which a piston ported air passage is arranged between an air inlet (2) and the upper part of a number of transfer ducts (3, 3?). The air passage is arranged from an air inlet (2) equipped with a restriction valve (4), controlled by at least one engine parameter, for instance the carburetor throttle control. The air inlet extends via at least one connecting duct (6, 6?) to at least one connecting port (8, 8?) in the engine's cylinder wall (12). The connecting port (8, 8?) is arranged so that it in connection with piston positions at the top dead center is connected with flow paths (10, 10?) embodied in the piston (13), which extend to the upper part of a number of transfer ducts (3, 3?).

  • Patent number: 6941906
    Abstract: A crankcase scavenged internal combustion engine includes a cylinder and a piston reciprocating along the cylinder wall. At least one auxiliary duct is arranged with an auxiliary port in the cylinder wall. An inlet is divided into: a fuel inlet leading to a fuel port and an air inlet leading to an air port. The auxiliary port, fuel port and air port can be opened and closed by the piston. The piston also comprises a transfer space, which mouth edges are limited by the piston periphery, and which, in at least one piston position, creates a connection between the fuel port and the auxiliary duct's port, so that fuel can be supplied to the auxiliary duct via the auxiliary port, and then, after the port later on has been opened by the piston, can flow into the combustion chamber.

  • Patent number: 6877723
    Abstract: Flange assembly for supporting a structure that provides scavenging air supply to an internal combustion engine at the carburetor to the engine. The assembly includes a thin-body flange that is configured to be abuttingly installed upon an end surface of the carburetor. The carburetor has its combustion air intake or port exposed at an outer surface for intaking air for the combustion process. The thin construction of the flange enables advantageous positioning of the adaptive flange. The relative dimensioning of the thin-body flange also contributes to its low-impact as a modification to air inlet arrangement. A combustion air aperture is provided that extends through the thin-body flange. The combustion air aperture is located in the flange for alignment with the combustion air intake. By this alignment, fluid communication is established across the flange and into the carburetor when the flange is abuttingly installed upon the carburetor.

  • Patent number: 6557504
    Abstract: A two-stroke internal combustion engine comprising a cylinder (10; 50) with a movable piston (11; 52) in it, which cylinder at its one end has a combustion chamber (16; 51) and at its other end is connected to a crankcase (15; 53). The crankcase and the combustion chamber are mutually connected via a scavenging duct (17; 56), whose opening and closing is controlled by the movement of the piston, and a carburetor (20; 55) is via an inlet port (21) connected to the crankcase. In order to simplify starting the engine it is provided with a device (23-6; 61-65; 70-72) for supply of fuel to the scavenging duct (17; 56) adjacent the combustion chamber.

  • Patent number: 6142454
    Abstract: A diaphragm carburetor having a carburetor casing defining a mixing passage. A measuring chamber is disposed in the carburetor casing and is partitioned into a fuel chamber and a compensation chamber separated by a control diaphragm. The compensating chamber is closed to the surrounding atmosphere but is connected to a channel. An opening of the channel enters into a space between the air filter and a fuel inlet in the mixing passage. The channel is at least partially defined by a pipe extending through the carburetor casing. The pipe is adapted for assembly/disassembly from outside of the casing. The pipe is attached to a spacer for properly orienting and fixing the pipe relative to the casing during assembly.

  • Patent number: 4466478
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for storing heat in a heat-of-fusion storage medium, e.g. a salt hydrate, and the heat exchange and mixing in conjunction with the taking of heat from the storage medium. In a closed system including a vapor chamber (5) and a chamber for a solid/liquid phase, the storage medium (2, 4) is brought into direct contact with a substance, i.e., a heat transfer medium (3) having the capacity of taking up heat from the storage medium by being vaporized. The vapor travels to the vapor chamber (5), and when heat is removed from the vapor, the vapor is caused to condense and the condensate returns to the storage medium. The substance has insignificant solubility in the storage medium and a density which is higher, or equal to the density of the storage medium in its liquid phase. Suitable combinations of storage medium and substance include calcium chloride hexahydrate and trifluorotrichloroethane or Clauber's salt and octafluorocyclobutane.

  • Patent number: 4219973
    Abstract: The invention relates to a grinding machine for chamfering workpiece end surfaces and renders possible a high-capacity machine, which removes material from the workpiece end surfaces only to an amount necessary for obtaining a product acceptable for continued working. This is achieved thereby that the grinding pendulum is mounted pivotally in a pendulum mounting, which is rotatable about an axis substantially in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the workpiece, so that the grinding wheel is caused to perform a circular movement after the workpiece outline.
