In a connecting rod of a piston machine which comprises two separate parts which are longitudinally movable relative to one another but operatively interconnected and of which one part is connected to the piston and the other is rotatably mounted on the crank of a crankshaft, the two connecting rod parts are interconnected by a fluid spring structure in which a fluid is utilized as a spring element for operatively interconnecting the connecting rod parts.

A cylinder head for a uniflow-scavenged two-stroke internal-combustion engine, particularly in motor vehicles, is provided with outlet valves which can be controlled by a camshaft. Outlet ducts connected with the outlet valves extend out of the cylinder head. A total of four outlet valves are provided for each cylinder, with the associated outlet ducts being guided to one side of the cylinder head. The camshaft is arranged laterally of the cylinder head opposite the outlet side of the outlet ducts. The outlet valves which are situated on the side facing away from the camshaft can be operated from the direction of the camshaft by way of operating members transversely penetrating the cylinder head.

In an inlet system for a two-cycle internal combustion engine which includes a cylinder with a piston reciprocating therein between a top dead center position and a bottom dead center position and in which at least two rows of scavenging air flow passages are arranged in separate flow planes around the cylinder adjacent the bottom dead center position of the piston which are closed by the piston when it is remote from the bottom dead center position, each of the separate flow planes includes independent air flow control components for independently controlling the admission of scavenging air to the scavenging air passages in the different flow planes.

The invention relates to connecting rods for piston engines, made of sintered metal, the connecting-rod shank consisting of two individual booms separated from one another. The object is to connect the individiual booms to the connecting-rod eyes in such a way that the danger of buckling is effectively minimized. The object is achieved in that the arrangement of the connection of the individual booms to the connecting-rod eyes takes place at such an angle and these connections are made so smoothly by means of transitional radii that the force flux between the connecting-rod eyes and the individual booms has an optimum course.

A casing of a trunk piston internal combustion engine has a cylinder hed, cylinder head cover, cylinder block and oil sump regions and bearing devices for the crankshaft and camshaft. The casing is manufactured from parts which are as simple to manufacture as possible and can be connected together with little effort. For this purpose, the cylinder block, together with a part of the cylinder head closing the respective individual cylinder spaces at the combustion space end, is configured as a common engine block casting with hollow spaces manufactured without the use of lost cores and open in the direction of the cylinder axis at one of the two ends of at least. The hollow spaces are closed by parts welded onto both ends to create a closed continuous water cooling jacket.

The invention relates to a direct fuel injection method for a diesel engine in which a preset quantity of fuel is introduced into a combustion space via a fuel injection nozzle in a preinjection and in a main injection which is separate from the preinjection. To achieve a short ignition delay with lowest possible specific fuel consumption during this process, the beginning of the preinjection occurs within the range of 10.degree.-16.degree. or of 20.degree.-30.degree. crank angle before top dead center, depending on speed, and the beginning of the main injection occurs within the range of 2.degree. after top dead center to 15.degree. before top dead center, the interval between the end of the preinjection and the beginning of the main injection being within the range of 3.degree. to 14.degree. or of 3.degree. to 26.degree. crank angle before top dead center and the preinjection quantity is 10% to 20% or 1% to 5% of the quantity of fuel preset in each case, depending on load.
