Abstract
Cylinder head construction defining a hemispheric combustion chamber and including a guide wall facing an intake port to impart swirl to an incoming air-fuel mixture and permit use of a lean air-fuel mixture. The position of the guide wall relative to the cylinder center and relative disposition of the guide wall and a spark plug are made such that although the guide wall is effective in imparting swirl, a flame front may be efficiently propagated to all parts of the combustion chamber subsequent to ignition of the air-fuel mixture therein, whereby provision of the guide wall does not result in increased emission of hydrocarbon compounds in exhaust gas or formation of carbon deposits in the combustion chamber.
