Abstract: An injection nozzle for use in injecting lubricating oil into cylinders in large engines is provided. The nozzle is adapted for fastening in a cylinder wall with a nozzle rod extending through the cylinder wall and with a nozzle outlet at the inner end of the nozzle rod. The nozzle rod includes a cylindrical valve seat boring with a displaceable valve body having a cylindrical sealing face which interacts with the cylindrical valve seat boring of the nozzle rod, the valve body biased by a spring for effective closing of the valve. The valve body is formed by a cylindrical rod having a turned recess in the cylindrical sealing face of the valve body. The turned recess is arranged at the inner end of the valve body with parts of the cylindrical sealing face of the valve body at each side of the turned recess.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method for cylinder lubrication of large diesel engines, such as marine engines. Injection of lubricating oil is performed via a number of injection units that correspond to a multiple of the cylinder number in the engine. There is desired an efficient distribution of the lubricating oil, not only across the periphery of the cylinder, but also across the travel of the piston in the cylinder in order thereby to reduce the consumption of lubricating oil. This is achieved in that lubricating oil is supplied by a combination of injection of a first part of the lubricating oil directly on a ring area of the cylinder wall before the passage of the piston and an injection of a second part of the lubricating oil directly onto the piston during its passage.

Abstract: There is described a hydraulic lubricating apparatus (252) for dosing cylinder lubricating oil, including a housing which via one or more valves (220) is connected to a source for supplying hydraulic oil (262) and cylinder lubricating oil (not shown), a number of hydraulic cylinders each having a hydraulic piston (6) and which may be pressurized by hydraulic oil. Furthermore, there are a number of injection units (251) corresponding to a multiple of the cylinder (250) number in the engine, and which are connected with each their dosing cylinder by a dosing piston (21). Also, there is provided a distributor plate (7) which at one side is in contact with the dosing pistons (21) and which at its other side is in contact with the hydraulic pistons (6) for displacing the distributor plate for actuating the dosing pistons.
