Abstract (en)

An engine, in particular a two-stroke motorcycle engine, comprises a cylinder (1) containing a chamber (3) in which a piston (4) moves; a fuel composed of air and the usual oil-gasoline mixture reaches said chamber (3) via feed passages (7). Movable deflector means (8) are arranged in at least one of said passages (7) in proximity to its entry (14) into the chamber (3) to orientate the fuel jet in such a manner as to result in improved scavenging of the chamber (3) during the appropriate phase of the engine cycle, said deflector means (8) varying the geometry of the passage (7) in which they are located as a function of the engine rotational speed and/or the position of the piston (4) within the cylinder chamber (3) or the engine cycle and/or the degree of opening of the accelerator. The movement of said deflector means (8) occurs by the effect of the pressure in the cylinder chamber (3) and in the feed passage (7), and the fuel throughput through said passage (7) or rather the thrust generated by it on said deflector means (8).
