  • Patent number: 8826883
    Abstract: Provided is a gas engine having a spark plug provided with a pre-combustion chamber and a check valve, the gas engine, in which the check valve is arranged in the neighborhood of the pre-combustion chamber, being capable of preventing adhesion of a solenoid controlled valve provided at an upstream side of the check valve due to soot accumulation, and dead volume in a fuel inlet passage. In a gas engine in which fuel gas is supplied to the pre-combustion chamber through the fuel gas inlet passage and the fuel gas supplied in the pre-combustion chamber is ignited by spark discharge at the spark plug that is fitted to a mounting hardware piece via a seat surface, a solenoid valve for performing open-close control of the fuel gas is provided, and a first check valve is also provided posterior to a discharge side of the solenoid valve so as to prevent back flow of the combustion gas from the pre-combustion chamber to the solenoid controlled valve.

  • Patent number: 8757127
    Abstract: Provided is a check valve structure capable of preventing soot accumulation in a check valve arranged in a pre-combustion chamber (4) due to incomplete combustion of fuel gas and preventing malfunction the check valve (6) for a gas engine having an pre-combustion chamber with a spark plug. An arrangement for supplying fuel gas to the pre-combustion chamber (4) has a multiple bore-cooling holes (11s) disposed around the spark plug (10) for cooling a gasket (10f) formed in a mounting hardware piece (13), the holes having an lateral bore-cooling hole (11a), and a lateral bore-cooling hole (11b) with the gasket (10f) therebetween. Each of the holes further has a multiple bore-cooling holes (11s) parallel to the center axis (10a) of the spark plug.
