A supercharging engine supplying compressed air to a combustion chamber as intake air may include at least two cylinders, a deactivation cylinder being at least one of the cylinders, and selectively deactivated, a compressed air tank adapted to store compressed air supplied from a combustion chamber of the deactivation cylinder, a compressed air storage passage formed to communicate the compressed air tank with the combustion chamber of the deactivation cylinder, an intake manifold selectively communicating with the compressed air tank, and a compressed air valve selectively opening/closing the compressed air storage passage, in which compressed air may be transmitted from the combustion chamber of the deactivation cylinder to the compressed air tank as the compressed air valve is opened in a compression stroke during deactivation of the deactivation cylinder.

Supercharging engine

A variable valve lift system includes a camshaft, a high lift cam, a low lift cam, a valve lift apparatus including a high lift body driven by the high lift cam, a low lift body driven by the low lift cam, and a first coupling part to selectively couple the high lift body and the low lift body, a valve provided at one end of the low lift body and opened and closed by the low lift body, a hydraulic lash adjuster including an adjuster housing installed in a cylinder head, an adjust unit to support the other end of the low lift body, slidably provided within the adjuster housing, and to adjust clearance of the valve, and a second coupling part to selectively couple the adjust unit and the adjuster housing, and a hydraulic pressure supply unit to selectively supply hydraulic pressure to the first and second coupling parts.
