Abstract

The scavenging passage includes a wall surface that defines an orientation direction of a main scavenging gas flow spouting from the scavenging port to the cylinder chamber. In a boundary portion between the scavenging port and the scavenging passage, a wall surface located on an opposite side of the exhaust port is composed of an inclined surface inclined in a direction further away from the exhaust port than a wall surface of a deep portion of the scavenging passage. The scavenging port includes a rear wall surface located in a portion on the opposite side of the exhaust port. The rear wall surface continues to the inclined surface to extend in the direction away from the exhaust port and generates an incidental scavenging gas flow incidental to the main scavenging gas flow and higher in speed than the main scavenging gas flow.

Claims (21)

1. A two-stroke internal combustion engine comprising:

a cylinder bore formed in a cylinder;

a piston inserted into the cylinder bore and can move reciprocatably, the piston defining a cylinder chamber in the cylinder bore;

a crankshaft configured to convert a reciprocating motion of the piston into a rotary motion;

a crank chamber configured to house the crankshaft and receive a gas mixture fed from an intake system;

a scavenging port that is open to the cylinder chamber and opened and closed by the piston;

a scavenging passage, one end of which ranges to the scavenging port and the other end of which is open to the crank chamber; and

an exhaust port configured to exhaust a combustion gas in the cylinder chamber to an outside and opened and closed by the piston, wherein

the scavenging passage includes a wall surface that defines an orientation direction of a main scavenging gas flow spouting from the scavenging port to the cylinder chamber,

in a boundary portion between the scavenging port and the scavenging passage, a wall surface located on an opposite side of the exhaust port is composed of an inclined surface inclined in a direction further away from the exhaust port than a wall surface of a deep portion of the scavenging passage,

the scavenging port includes a rear wall surface located in a portion on the opposite side of the exhaust port, and

the rear wall surface continues to the inclined surface to extend in the direction away from the exhaust port and generates an incidental scavenging gas flow incidental to the main scavenging gas flow and higher in speed than the main scavenging gas flow.

2. The two-stroke internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the inclined surface is composed of a curved surface having a convex shape toward the cylinder chamber.

3. The two-stroke internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein

the scavenging port is composed of a main port portion directly continuing to the scavenging passage and a port extension forming a port extended passage extending in a lateral direction from the main port portion, and

the port extension extends from the main port portion to the opposite side of the exhaust port in a cylinder circumferential direction.

4. The two-stroke internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the two-stroke internal combustion engine is an engine of a reverse scavenging type in which a scavenging gas spouting from the scavenging port to the cylinder chamber is directed to the opposite side of the exhaust port.

5. The two-stroke internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the two-stroke internal combustion engine is an engine of a stratified scavenging type in which fresh air spouts from the scavenging port to the cylinder chamber in an initial period of a scavenging stroke.

6. The two-stroke internal combustion engine according to claim 5 , wherein

the cylinder further includes a fresh air port that receives feeding of the fresh air from the intake system, and

the piston includes a piston groove that can make communication between the fresh air port and the scavenging port.
