Abstract (en)

A two-stroke internal combustion engine has a duplex piston (48) slidable in co-axial cylinders (18,28). The engine has an inlet (15) for air/fuel mixture, an air inlet (29) and an exhaust outlet (36), and the combustion chamber has air inlet ports (32) and air/fuel transfer ports (34). The piston is arranged to pump a fresh air charge into the combustion chamber slightly in advance of the air/fuel charge to assist in scavenging and avoid unburnt fuel being passed directly to exhaust. The crankcase may or may not be used for charge compression.
