Title: Koichi Ogino and His Valve Operating System for Multicylinder Engines.
Introduction
Koichi Ogino is an inventor based in Wako, Japan, associated with Honda Motor Co., Ltd. His recorded patent concerns a valve operating system designed for multicylinder engines.
Latest Patents
Ogino’s listed patent is “Valve Operating System for Multicylinder Engine.” The invention uses a camshaft-mounted cam to operate pairs of rocker arms, which open and close the valves on each cylinder. For at least one cylinder, the rocker arms are inclined in opposite directions relative to the direction perpendicular to the camshaft axis. This arrangement counteracts thrust loads on the camshaft, helping reduce those loads and prevent axial movement. The supplied information lists 1 patent for Ogino.
Career Highlights
Ogino’s documented patent work focuses on engine valve-train design. The described system addresses camshaft thrust and stability in multicylinder engines.
Collaborations
The supplied information identifies Naoya Ashita and Takeya Harada as Ogino’s coworkers. It does not specify their roles in developing or patenting this invention.
Conclusion
Koichi Ogino’s listed invention applies an opposing rocker-arm arrangement to manage camshaft thrust, reflecting a practical engineering approach to multicylinder engine design.
