Abstract
Abstract A combustion chamber configuration and porting arrangement for a two-cycle crankcase compression diesel engine that improves scavenging. An exhaust port opens into one side of the engine cylinder bore and the scavenge ports and a precombustion chamber are configured so that they discharge their gases in an area diametrically opposed to the exhaust port for improving scavenging.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
182 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine comprised of a cylinder having a cylinder bore, a piston reciprocating in said cylinder bore, a cylinder head affixed to said cylinder, exhaust port means opening into said cylinder bore at one side thereof, scavenge port means opening into said cylinder bore at a point spaced from said exhaust port means and configured to direct the flow of a charge from said crankcase toward the portion of said cylinder bore diametrically opposed to said exhaust port means and directed upwardly towards said cylinder head, a chamber formed within said cylinder head and communicating with said cylinder bore through a restricted throat, said throat being offset from said diametrically opposed portion of said cylinder bore and directed at an angle toward said diametrically opposed portion of said cylinder bore, said throat being disposed so as to direct the flow of expanding gases from said cylinder head chamber toward said diameterically opposed portion of said cylinder bore for redirecting the flow toward said exhaust port means, and means for initiating combustion in said cylinder head chamber.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
182 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine comprised of a cylinder having a cylinder bore, a piston reciprocating in said cylinder bore, a cylinder head affixed to said cylinder, exhaust port means opening into said cylinder bore at one side thereof, scavenge port means opening into said cylinder bore at a point spaced from said exhaust port means and configured to direct the flow of a charge from said crankcase toward the portion of said cylinder bore diametrically opposed to said exhaust port means and directed upwardly towards said cylinder head, a chamber formed within said cylinder head and communicating with said cylinder bore through a restricted throat, said throat being offset from said diametrically opposed portion of said cylinder bore and directed at an angle toward said diametrically opposed portion of said cylinder bore, said throat being disposed so as to direct the flow of expanding gases from said cylinder head chamber toward said diameterically opposed portion of said cylinder bore for redirecting the flow toward said exhaust port means, and means for initiating combustion in said cylinder head chamber.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine as set forth in claim 1, wherein the scavenge port means and throat are directed so that their flow impinge upon the same area of the cylinder bore.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine as set forth in claim 1, wherein the means for initiating combustion in the cylinder head chamber comprises a fuel injection nozzle for causing self-ignition for operating on a diesel cycle.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine as set forth in claim 3 wherein the fuel injection nozzle discharges directly into the cylinder head chamber.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
36 words
In a two-cycle crankcase compression internal combustion engine as set forth in claim 4, wherein the scavenge port means and throat are directed so that their flow impinge upon the same area of the cylinder bore.
