Patent number: 6840210Abstract: A direct cylinder injection-type spark ignition internal combustion engine is disclosed. The engine comprises a spark plug, a cavity formed in the top surface of a piston, and a fuel injection valve for injecting fuel into the cavity in nearly the shape of a fan having a relatively small thickness. When the fuel injected in nearly the shape of a fan from the fuel injection valve is considered by being divided into a plurality of fuel segments in a radial direction, a side wall of the cavity has a first fuel deflection passage 82a and a second fuel deflection passage 82b for so deflecting at least two of the plurality of fuel segments as to pass near the spark plug. The side wall of the cavity is at least partly provided with a return portion 83 that protrudes toward the inside of the cavity.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2003Date of Patent: January 11, 2005Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Toyokazu Baika, Tatsuo Kobayashi, Fumiaki Hattori, Takashi Hashima, Hiroyuki Hokuto, Toshimi Kashiwagura, Matsumi Kanda, Hiroya Tanaka, Souichi Matusita, Shizuo Abe, Nobuyuki Muramatsu

Patent number: 6460509Abstract: A direct-fuel-injection-type spark-ignition internal combustion engine is disclosed. The engine comprises a spark plug, a cavity formed on the top surface of the piston, and a fuel injection valve for injecting fuel into the cavity in nearly the shape of a fan having a relative small thickness. In the engine, the side wall of the cavity facing the fuel injection valve, for leading the fuel to the vicinity of the spark plug, has a horizontal sectional shape consisting of a part of an ellipse shape of which two foci are at a position of the injection hole of the fuel injection valve and a position near to the spark plug in plan view, and the side wall has a deflecting portion to deflect the fuel toward the inside of the cavity.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2000Date of Patent: October 8, 2002Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Nobuyuki Muramatsu, Yasuhito Tsutsumi, Tatsuo Kobayashi, Toyokazu Baika, Souichi Matusita, Shizuo Abe, Takashi Hashima, Koukichi Fujimori
