  • Patent number: 11578644
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a gas intake device (1) for a cylinder of an internal-combustion engine. The gas intake device comprises two intake pipes (5a, 5b), two intake valves (4), two intake valve calibration parts (6a, 6b) and, in each intake pipe (5a, 5b), means for forming an aerodynamic gas motion of tumble type in the cylinder. Furthermore, for each intake pipe (5a, 5b), the intersection between intake pipe (5a, 5b) and calibration part (6a, 6b) occurs along a line non-parallel to the plane of the fire face. Besides, the inclination angle of this intersection is different for each pipe (5a, 5b).
