Abstract
A port belt arrangement for use in a two-stroke internal combustion engine containing a pair of adjacent cylinders. The arrangement including a first hollow annulus defining a first annular channel, the first annular channel tapering in a radial direction, with increasing circumferential distance from a first port, an inner wall of the first annular channel having a second port, and a second hollow annulus defining a second annular channel, the second annular channel tapering in a radial direction, with increasing circumferential distance from a third port, an inner wall of the second annular channel having a fourth port, wherein the first hollow annulus and the second hollow annulus are joined together at a joining point located on each of their circumferences. The cross-sectional area of the first annular channel at the joining point is less than the cross-sectional area of the first annular channel at the point on the circumference of the first hollow annulus which is furthest from the joining point.
