Abstract: A piston cooling jet includes a housing, a nozzle, a valve, a pressure chamber, a pressure adjusting passage, and a filter. The nozzle is provided to project outward from the housing, and capable of spraying oil toward a piston. The valve is capable of moving reciprocally inside the housing, and configured to receive a load due to a hydraulic pressure in an engine-side oil passage applied from a front side of the valve. The valve includes a valve-side oil passage that communicates with the engine-side oil passage. The pressure chamber communicates with the valve-side oil passage. The pressure adjusting passage is disposed between the pressure chamber and a space outside the housing. The filter is disposed in the valve, and configured to remove foreign matter that cannot pass through the pressure adjusting passage from oil passing through the valve-side oil passage.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a cooling fluid circuit and a pumping circuit. The pumping circuit drives an ejector pump located along the cooling fluid circuit, enabling a reduced parasitic load on the engine from pumping cooling fluid through the cooling fluid circuit.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an oil-jet emplacement assembly and an oil-jet sheltering assembly. The oil-jet emplacement assembly is configured to spatially emplace an oil-jet device at an installation position relative to an engine block of a vehicle. The oil-jet sheltering assembly is positioned relative to the oil-jet emplacement assembly. The oil-jet sheltering assembly is configured to protectively shelter the oil-jet device from inadvertent oil-jet installation damage.

Abstract: A cooler arrangement comprising a charge air cooler which comprises at least one first pipeline for guiding compressed air during cooling and a tank which receives the cooled compressed air via an outlet aperture from the first pipeline, and an EGR cooler which comprises at least one second pipeline for guiding exhaust gases during cooling and a tank which receives the cooled exhaust gases from an outlet aperture of the second pipeline. The cooler arrangement comprises a tubular element extending from the EGR cooler's tank to the charge air cooler's tank. The tubular element has an outlet aperture for exhaust gases which is situated downstream of the most downstream outlet aperture in the charge air cooler's tank with respect to the main direction of flow of the air in the tank.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine for a small planing boat for preventing supercooling of the internal combustion engine before warm-up while enabling efficient cooling of the internal combustion engine after warm-up. An internal combustion engine for a small planing boat includes a first cooling water path B through which cooling water introduced from a jet propulsion pump flows toward an internal combustion engine main body via an exhaust manifold. A second cooling water path C is provided through which cooling water introduced from the jet propulsion pump flows toward an exhaust pipe via an oil cooler. A bypass cooling water path D is provided for branching a part of cooling water in the second cooling water path C which flows out from the oil cooler, so as to merge into cooling water in the first cooling water path B which flows into the internal combustion engine main body.
