Patent number: 6112709Abstract: A boosting mechanism of two-stroke engine, including a turbo-propeller disposed on a mandrel of an activating shaft. The turbo-propeller is positioned in front of an intake port of the combustion chamber of an engine and coupled with a crank of the piston of the engine. By means of rotating the activating shaft, the turbo-propeller is rotated along the activating shaft. Also, the turbo-propeller is synchronously operated with the piston to sweep mixed gas into the combustion chamber so as to maintain a proper oil-gas ratio and increase gas pressure and enhance combustion efficiency and power of the engine.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 1999Date of Patent: September 5, 2000Inventor: Yu-Po Chu

Patent number: 4480597Abstract: A two-stroke cycle gasoline engine, comprising a power cylinder-piston assembly having a scavenging port configuration including a first scavenging port configuration first uncovered by the power piston as it moves along the power cylinder from its top dead center to its bottom dead center and a second scavenging port configuration uncovered by the power piston as it moves from its top dead center to its bottom dead center immediately after said power piston has completed uncovering the first scavenging port configuration, wherein the general rate relative to piston position in the power cylinder of uncovering of the area of the first scavenging port configuration is substantially lower than that of the second scavenging port configuration, so that the idling and low-load performance of the engine is substantially improved by improving scavenging.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 1979Date of Patent: November 6, 1984Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kobyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masaaki Noguchi, Yukiyasu Tanaka, Isao Igarashi

Patent number: 4430967Abstract: The invention engine comprises a compressor with a rotary piston in a cylinder bore in a stator and a U-shaped box-like combustion-expansion compartment, conveniently called a U-box, immediately above and riding on the rotary piston, the U-box and the compressor unit contained between the same parallel end walls. The rotary piston is eccentrically mounted on a shaft which is concentric with the cylinder bore and is supported in bearings in the end walls. A wiper blade is fitted in a groove across the piston head to yieldably sweep the cylinder bore to generate a suction stroke behind it, drawing in air via a one-way inlet port in the perimeter of the cylinder, and a compression stroke ahead of it to compress the air drawn in during the preceding suction stroke. The U-box is in the shape of a rectangular plate bent upward at two places to form two parallel vertical sides of equal height and a base plate between them.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 1982Date of Patent: February 14, 1984Inventor: Robert H. Williams

Patent number: 4362132Abstract: A two-cycle engine is disclosed which conventionally includes a piston that reciprocates between a closed combustion chamber and crankcase. The piston reciprocates through a connecting rod that is eccentrically connected to the crank discs of a crankshaft. The crankcase is partially circular in configuration, and the crankdiscs conform in shape to the crankcase. Each crank disc has an annular recess or pocket extending around its periphery for approximately 180.degree. and in opposition to the eccentric point of connection of the connecting rod. The pockets cyclically communicate with a fuel inlet port and carburetor, both of which are positioned below the crankshaft rotational axis on the downstroke side of the crankcase. Fuel transfer passages between the crankcase and combustion chamber are positioned to receive the fuel charge from each recess as it is thrown tangentially upward with rotation of the crank discs.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 1981Date of Patent: December 7, 1982Inventor: Clayton L. Neuman

Patent number: 4276858Abstract: A two-cycle internal combustion engine includes a power cylinder, a drive piston being positioned therein. A first transfer duct extends between an auxiliary cylinder, which is supplied with carburetted air and the power cylinder and opens thereinto via a carburetted air inlet port provided on the side wall of the power cylinder or its combustion chamber. A pump crankcase, which is supplied with pure air, is connected to the power cylinder via a second transfer duct which opens thereinto via a scavenging inlet port on the side wall of the power cylinder. An exhaust port is provided on the side wall of the power cylinder. The ports are operatively arranged so that the scavenging port starts to open after the exhaust port and before the carburetted air inlet port.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 1980Date of Patent: July 7, 1981Assignee: Ateliers de la MotobecaneInventor: Christian Jaulmes
