Abstract
Abstract A two-cycle engine with fuel injector comprises an engine body, a crank case defining crank chambers for respective cylinders, the crank chambers being provided with intake ports, throttle bodies, and fuel injectors. The throttle bodies comprise throttle passages and throttle valve means and the injectors are inserted in the throttle passages downstream of the throttle valve means. The throttle passages are connected to each other through a balance passage at portions downstream the throttle valve means. An air chamber may be formed on the way of the balance passage. The throttle passages connected by the balance passage to one group of cylinders having phase difference of 180° of the reciprocating stroke.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
A two-cycle engine with fuel injector, having an engine body with at least two cylinders, a crank case defining crank chambers operatively communicating with the corresponding cylinders, a plurality of throttle bodies, throttle passages connected to the corresponding crank chambers, each of said throttle bodies having mounted therein a throttle valve at a position upstream of the throttle passage, respectively, and said throttle passage communication with the outside of the engine through at least one air cleaner, and a fuel injector provided at a position downstream of the throttle valve, respectively, comprising: a balance passage located between and connecting the throttle passages with each other whereby a reverse flow mixture flowed back from one of the cylinders can be supplied to the other of the cylinders through the balance passage, an air chamber formed in said balance passage for attenuating pulsation of the reverse flow mixture.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
146 words
A two-cycle engine with fuel injector, having an engine body with at least two cylinders, a crank case defining crank chambers operatively communicating with the corresponding cylinders, a plurality of throttle bodies, throttle passages connected to the corresponding crank chambers, each of said throttle bodies having mounted therein a throttle valve at a position upstream of the throttle passage, respectively, and said throttle passage communication with the outside of the engine through at least one air cleaner, and a fuel injector provided at a position downstream of the throttle valve, respectively, comprising: a balance passage located between and connecting the throttle passages with each other whereby a reverse flow mixture flowed back from one of the cylinders can be supplied to the other of the cylinders through the balance passage, an air chamber formed in said balance passage for attenuating pulsation of the reverse flow mixture.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
