  • Patent number: 8939128
    Abstract: The present invention shows a high-pressure injector having the following assemblies: an injector unit (1), a drive unit (2) for driving the injector unit (1), preferably a high-pressure storage unit (3) for supplying the injector unit (1) with fuel, and a high-pressure connection (4). Provision is made in this respect that the high-pressure injector has a housing (5) in which a plurality of the named assemblies are arranged behind one another in the longitudinal direction of the injector, wherein the housing (5) completely envelops at least one of the named assemblies, in particular the drive unit (2) and/or the high-pressure storage unit (3). The high-pressure injector with the injector unit can be used in all types of internal combustion engines, preferably in diesel engines.

  • Patent number: 6513466
    Abstract: The invention relates to a two-stroke engine in the form of a drive motor in a motor-driven chain saw or like portable handheld work apparatus. A combustion chamber (4) is provided in a cylinder (2) of the engine and is delimited by a piston (1). The piston (1) drives a crankshaft (6) via a connecting rod (5) and the crankshaft (6) includes a crankweb (7). The combustion chamber (4) is connected via an outlet to an exhaust-gas muffler. A fresh mixture is supplied to the combustion chamber (4) from the crankcase (3) via a transfer channel (10). The entry of the fresh mixture takes place via the crankcase (3). Also, an air channel (21) is provided for supplying fuel-free air. To reduce the scavenging losses, the air channel (21) is connected via a storage space (20) to the crankcase (3). The transfer channel (10) is either connected directly via a valve (23) to the crankcase or indirectly via the storage space (20).
