Patent

CA 2645325

A two-cycle, opposed piston engine with side-mounted crankshafts and cylinders isolated from mechanical stresses of the engine includes tailored cooling of cylinders and symmetrical cooling of the interior surfaces of piston crowns. Each opposed piston includes a compliant member that permits movement of an axially-centered rod mounted in the piston in order to maintain axial alignment with the bore of a cylinder in which the piston is disposed during engine operation. A single wristpin is disposed externally of the piston to connect the piston with connecting rods that run between the piston and the crankshafts.

La présente invention concerne un moteur deux temps à pistons opposés dont les vilebrequins sont montés sur le côté et dont les cylindres sont isolés des contraintes mécaniques du moteur. Ce moteur comporte un refroidissement adapté des cylindres et un refroidissement symétrique des faces intérieures des têtes de pistons. Chaque piston opposé est pourvu d'un élément conformable permettant le déplacement d'une bielle centrée sur l'axe montée dans le piston de façon à conserver l'alignement axial avec l'alésage d'un cylindre dans lequel le piston est disposé pendant le fonctionnement du moteur. Un unique axe de pieds de bielle est disposé à l'extérieur du piston de façon à relier le piston aux bielles travaillant entre le piston et les vilebrequins.
