Abstract: A handheld work apparatus has a combustion engine and a rest position. The engine includes a cylinder wherein a piston is mounted to drive a crankshaft in a crankcase. The engine has an intake channel having an intake channel section formed in a fuel supply. The intake channel is divided into a mixture channel and an air channel. The engine has an air filter defining a clean chamber for a deflection bowl. The deflection bowl has a first passage opening whereat the air channel passes from the deflection bowl into the clean chamber and a second passage opening whereat the mixture channel passes from the deflection bowl into the clean chamber. The air channel and the mixture channel run mutually separate in the deflection bowl. In the rest position, no second passage opening extends into a region situated lower in terms of the geodetic height than the main fuel opening.

Abstract: A two-stroke engine possesses a cylinder, in the cylinder bore of which a combustion chamber is formed. The combustion chamber is bounded by a reciprocating piston, which drives a crankshaft rotatably mounted in a crankcase. A crankcase interior is fluidically connected to the combustion chamber across at least one transfer channel in at least one position of the piston. The at least one transfer channel emerges with a discharge opening in the crankcase interior and with at least one transfer window on the cylinder bore. It is proposed that all transfer channels have an average length as measured from the discharge opening to the transfer window, the average length being at least 1.5 in relation to the stroke, and that the volume of the crankcase interior including all transfer channels is at most 3.1 in relation to the piston displacement.

Abstract: A fuel feed unit has a base body with an intake channel section, into which a fuel opening opens. A partition wall section divides the intake channel section into a mixture channel and an air channel. The wall section has a recess in which the throttle flap at least partially lies in an end position. The wall section has, upstream of the recess, a continuous surface facing the mixture channel and which has lateral sections adjacent to the channel wall and a middle section running between the lateral sections. The lateral sections have, upstream of the throttle flap, a separation edge for the flow. In the end position, the side of the throttle flap facing the mixture channel defines a reference plane which divides the unit into a first region and a second region. The lateral sections extend, at least directly upstream of the recess, into the second region.

Abstract: The invention specifies an in particular horizontal tubular-bag machine (5) in which objects (2) which are provided for packaging are conveyed along a conveying direction (6) by means of a conveying apparatus (51). The tubular-bag machine (5) has an apparatus (50, 43) for producing from a packaging sheet material (12) a packaging tube (13) extending in the conveying direction (6), and also has a longitudinal-connection device (53, 54) and a transverse-connection device (44) for producing longitudinal and transverse connections in the packaging tube (13). Also provided is a gas-adjusting device (8) with an introduction head (80) for engaging in the packaging tube (13) in a direction transverse to the conveying direction, wherein the introduction head (80) has a first gas-passage opening (802, 804, 805, 807, 808) and at least one second gas-passage opening (802, 804, 805, 807, 808) by way of which a gas is fed into the packaging tube (13) or removed therefrom.

Abstract: A two-stroke engine has a cylinder with a combustion chamber which is bounded by a piston which drives a crankshaft which rotates in a crankcase. The crankcase is connected to the combustion chamber via an overflow passage in the lower dead center region of the piston. The two stroke engine has an intake passage. A carburetor forms a section of the intake passage. The intake passage is partially divided into an air passage, which supplies combustion air into an overflow passage, and a mixture passage which opens into the crankcase. A throttle valve mounted pivotably in the carburetor controls the combustion air quantity supplied to the air and mixture passages. An air-guiding element arranged on the passage wall of the air passage guides the combustion air passing between the throttle valve and passage wall in the idling position of the throttle valve in the direction of the mixture passage.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine has an intake device having an air filter and at least one port. Combustion air is sucked in from the clean side of the air filter to the internal combustion engine via the port. The intake device has air trunking, in which at least a first section and a second section of the port are guided. The air trunking has a longitudinal center axis, wherein combustion air flows in the first section of the port in a first direction of flow running in the direction of the longitudinal center axis. The combustion air flows in the second section of the port in a second direction of flow oriented in an opposite direction to the first direction of flow and in the direction of the longitudinal center axis. As a result, a compact overall size is achieved with port length.

Abstract: A working apparatus has an internal combustion engine which drives at least one tool via a clutch. The clutch starts the coupling process at an initial engagement speed when the internal combustion engine is accelerated. The internal combustion engine has a piston, an ignition device and an ignition timing control device. The control device provides a first ignition timing for idling and a second ignition timing for full load operation, which is earlier than the first ignition timing. A method for operating the working apparatus provides that the ignition timing is adjusted toward “late,” with respect to the first ignition timing, when the engine speed drops in a first speed range above the idling speed and below the initial engagement speed.

Abstract: A two stroke engine comprises a cylinder, in which a combustion chamber bounded by a piston is formed, and an intake passage. A carburetor forms a section of the intake passage, within which a throttle element is mounted pivotably, and at least one main fuel opening and at least one idling fuel opening open into the intake passage, which is divided downstream of the carburetor into an air passage and a mixture passage. The idling fuel opening feeds a secondary passage arranged within the mixture passage. In the idling position, the throttle element may be arranged adjacent to the upstream entry opening in the secondary passage, and the throttle element may have an opening which, in the idling position of the throttle element, is arranged in the region of the entry opening and connects the secondary passage to that region of the intake passage located upstream of the throttle element.

Abstract: A hand-held power tool has a two-stroke engine with a cylinder with combustion chamber and a piston disposed therein that drives a crankshaft supported in a crankcase. In at least one piston position, crankcase and combustion chamber are connected by a transfer passage. An air passage supplies in at least one piston position combustion air to the transfer passage. A mixture passage for fuel/air mixture is provided. Air and mixture passages in operation are at least partially connected to each other. Part of the mixture passage is formed in a carburetor where a fuel port opens into the mixture passage. The mixture passage opens into the crankcase with a piston-controlled mixture inlet having a width in circumferential direction of the cylinder. Upon upward piston stroke the mixture inlet is connected to the crankcase with a portion of the width before a connection of air passage and transfer passage is established.
