Abstract: In a spark-ignition internal combustion engine in which a protrusion including an intake-side inclined surface and an exhaust-side inclined surface is formed on a top surface of a piston, and a cavity is formed in the protrusion at a position associated with a spark plug, the intake-side inclined surface and the exhaust-side inclined surface are formed in such a way that an inclination angle of the exhaust-side inclined surface is smaller than an inclination angle of the intake-side inclined surface, and a difference in inclination angle between the intake-side inclined surface and the exhaust-side inclined surface is 4 degrees or larger.

Abstract: In a spark-ignition internal combustion engine in which a protrusion including an intake-side inclined surface and an exhaust-side inclined surface is formed on a top surface of a piston, and a cavity is formed in the protrusion at a position associated with a spark plug. The cavity includes a bottom surface and a tubular peripheral surface, and is formed in such a way that a ratio of a depth of the cavity with respect to a diameter of the cavity is 0.3 or smaller.

Abstract: An oil ring to be attached to a ring groove of a piston for an engine is provided. The oil ring includes two annular ring bodies having a common axis and arranged in tandem, and an expander for biasing the ring bodies radially outward. A sliding surface is formed at an outer circumference of each ring body to bulge radially outward and slides on a cylinder inner circumferential surface. The sliding surface of one of the ring bodies has a tip portion and first and second curved surfaces. In cross sections of the first and second curved surfaces, the first and second curved surfaces are connected while tangent lines to the cross sections at the tip portion align with each other, and when positional change rates are compared between points on the first and second curved surfaces, a change rate of the first curved surface is lower.
