This invention relates to a reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder crankcase in which a crankshaft is rotatably supported, to which crankshaft there is flexibly joined at least one connecting rod having a piston guided in a cylinder liner, the crankcase having fittings of an oil circulation system and various attached parts in a number independent of the number of cylinders. The crankcases with various numbers of cylinders can be cast, machined and assembled at the lowest possible cost because groups of fittings and attached parts have spacings to one of the two ends of the various cylinder crankcases (1) that remain constant.

Reciprocating internal combustion engine

An oil-cooled or oil-air-cooled reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder crankcase provided with oil fittings which are manufacturable at a low cost and are accessible for servicing, adjustment and replacement from the exterior of the engine.

Oil-cooled reciprocating internal combustion engine

This invention relates to a reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder crankcase with a cylinder head with is designed to reduce the manufacturing and spare parts cost. A single design unified cylinder head is employed for liquid cooling and air cooling, the cylinder head having both cooling spaces for the liquid coolant and cooling fins for the cooling air. Coolant passageways in the cylinder head are connected to coolant spaces in the cylinder block portion of the cylinder crankcase by way of openings in the upper end of the cylinder block and openings in the cylinder head gasket which permit flow of coolant to the annuli in the cylinder head. In addition to the annuli, the coolant passageways in the cylinder head include a longitudinally extending header, horizontally extending web ducts extending radially inward from the annuli and vertically extending connecting conduits inclined relative to the cylinder axes interconnecting the web ducts and the header. Each connecting conduit extends through a pillar extending between the cover plate portion and the base portion of the cylinder head. The pillars are in the wind shadow of, and in a substantially parallel relationship to, injection nozzles installed in the cylinder head.

Cooling system for an internal combustion engine

A reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder crankcase and a ventilation device for said crankcase, which ventilation device is in fluid flow relation with an oil-gas distribution line in a cylinder head. The fluid flow connections between the ventilation device (3) and the interior of the cylinder crankcase (1) and between the ventilation device (3) and the oil-gas distribution line is effected solely by flow passages internal to the engine.

An internal combustion engine which each cylinder has a cylinder cooling space and each cylinder head has a head cooling space, the individual cylinder cooling spaces being connected in series, the individual head cooling spaces being connected in series and the cylinder cooling spaces, as a group, cooling spaces, as a group, being connected in series. The engine includes a lubrication oil system which supplies cooling oil to the cylinder and head cooling spaces as well as supplying lubricating oil to lubricate other components such as the bearings for the crankshaft, the crankshaft and the piston connecting the rods.

Liquid cooled internal combustion engine

A connecting passageway is provided between a cooling air fan and an enclosure for an enclosed belt drive of an internal-combustion engine, whereby the belt drive is cooled by a cool-air stream diverted from the cooing fan. The connecting passageway is made as an air shaft, which is formed largely from existing parts of the internal-combustion engine and, in addition, is arranged in such a fashion that it has no parts protruding beyond the outer counter of the engine.

Belt drive for an internal-combustion engine

An diesel internal combustion engine with a liquid-cooled cylinder crank casing (1) includes a cylinder head gasket (300) which can be used with either a liquid-cooled cylinder head (200) or an air-cooled cylinder head (100).

Diesel internal combustion engine

An air-cooled block cylinder head adapted for mounting on an open-deck cylinder casing of an internal combustion engine. In order to maintain a tight seal of the cylinder head to the cylinder casing, the combustion chamber floor of the cylinder head is designed to be deflected in a manner that does not adversely affect the sealing of the cylinder head to the cylinder casing. This is achieved by designing the cooling chamber side of the cylinder head floor with a gradually changing floor wall thickness in the area directly above the cylinder combustion chamber. In the preferred designs, the combustion chamber floor is designed to be concave or convex. The cylinder head also includes features for effectively cooling the combustion chamber floor and for isolating the exhaust conduit.

Cylinder head

The spatially curved oscillator tubes are closely seated on the cylinder head and are partially integrated in that wall of a common intake housing which faces the cylinder head, and are completed by shell halves. The intake system preferably includes injection molded synthetic material, and is fastened on the cylinder head by an aluminum fastening rail or strip, or includes reinforced synthetic material, and is fastened directly on the cylinder head. An air-filter element can be installed as a part of the intake housing.

Intake system with oscillator tubes

A cylinder head, for a water cooled internal combustion engine, which reduces the thermal stresses. The gas-changing channels and the oil-return channels are located on one side. A main water overflow, in conjunction with an oppositely located auxiliary water overflow, makes possible a precise or directed flow along the valve land portion and around the turbulence chamber or the injection nozzle channel, whereby the flow is kept along the cylinder head bottom by a roof-shaped wall on the side remote from the cylinder block. The strength of the cylinder head is increased, and the oil removal is improved, by associating an oil-return channel with each cylinder. Specially shaped cylinder head screw channels increase the compression or pressure against the combustion chamber walls and effect a more uniform pressure distribution. A more favorable sealing behavior is attained by compensation or expansion curvatures in the cylinder head cover plate.
