Internal combustion motor

Abstract

 This invention refers to a motor, indistinc­tly combustion or diesel one, having in each chamber an operative unitary group in front of a conventional only cylynder, incorporates two parallel cylinders identical between them, permanently related through a gases com­municating pass in such a way that the inlet valve is fixed on the other, whilst the spark plug or the injec­tor are situated in above cited pass. The two pistons acting inside these cylinders are associated to the res­pective crankshaft and dully related between themselves to obtain an absolutely synchronized movement.
Tis structuralization facilitates the place­ment of the valves and allows the dimensional increase of same obtaining at the same time a major balance in forces transmissions to outlet shaft and a substancial reduction in the motor's vibrations.

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention refers to an internal com­bustion motor, concretely a reciprocating motor, of the type of those in which the combustible ignition or explo­sion inside of two or several cylinders chambers determi­nes the displacement of corresponding pistons which suffer that way a reciprocative motion converted into a gyratory movement for a crankshaft through the corresponding arms.

[0002] The object of the invention is centered over a structuralization special for this type of motor which fa­cilitates the dimensioning and placement of the inlet and outlet valves at the same time that balances the forces distribution in the motor minimizing the variations.

INVENTION'S ANTECEDENTS

[0003] As it is well known, the internal combustion mo­tors, reciprocating, as well in the case of explosion mo­tors as in that of combustion motors (commonly named die­sel) have as fundamental function to supply, generally to several chambers or cylinders, a mixture of combustible air, to press inmediately afterwards such mixture until producing an automatic ignition or until a certain point when an electric spark jumps inside the chamber by mean of a spark plug forcing the piston to a quick longitudinal displacement which is what is used as propulsive energy, finally producing the bump out of gases resulting from the combustion.

[0004] That implicates a double slope problematic: from one side, the intake and exhaust phases, mean a respective loss of energy owing to the fact that when intaking the piston actuates as suction pump getting its energy from the crankshaft and, as a consequence, takes away energy fro the piston which in that moment is in the phase of ex­plosion, at the same time that, during the exhausting pha­se, the piston acts as forcing pump also taking its energy from the crankshaft. Evidently, these losses of energy will be as small as bigger are the intake and exhausting valves, but such dimensions are substantially limited by the cylin­der's own volumetry and by the need of establishing in the­se cylinders other accessories, such as spark plugs or in­jectors.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0005] The internal combustion motor proposed by the in­vention has been conceived and structurated to solve at full satisfaction above problematic, in the two slopes pre­viously cited, allowing, from one side, a major dimentio­ning and easier placement for the intake valve and for the exhaust valve as well, securing, at the same time a more balanced functioning of the motor, from the view point of forces distribution.

[0006] To that effect and in a more concrete form the said motor center its characteristics in the fact that, in replacement of each operative group unitary and conventio­nal integrated by a cylinder, a piston an arm directly con­nected to the crankshaft, the corresponding couple of in­take and exhausting valves and all other accessories such as spark plug or injector incorporates two cylinders dully inter-connected between themselves to form a unique chamber from the functional or operative viewpoint, being those two pistons related through the corresponding arms with the respective crankshafts which are, at their time inter­related to obtain a perfectly synchronized movement that is transmitted to an unique exit axle which can be one of its own crankshafts.

[0007] According to this structuralization in each one of the two cylinders integrating the unique chamber, it is established whether the intake valve or the exhausting val­ve, being possible that these two valves integrally affect the base of the cylinders already cited, which is to say, to present a maximum dimensioning for the injector or the spark plug can, at their time, remain situated in the pass of communication between both cylinders, not obstructing, consequently, the placement and functioning of the cited valves. So, it is obtained, from one side, that the intake and exhausting times are affected with a minimum consump­tion of energy owing to the dimensions of the correspon­ding valves. From the other side, in the explosion phase will be produced two "pushings" of equal powers physically opposed which determine a substancial balance in the trans­mission of forces and, in consequence, a practical annul­ment of the classic vibrations in the internal combustion motors.

DRAWING'S DESCRIPTION

[0008] To complement the description that is being ef­fected and with the object to help to a better understan­ding of the characteristics of the invention, we attached herein a descriptive memory as constituent part of same of a unique drawings page in which, with a character of i­llustration and not of limitation and in his unique figu­re, it has been schematically represented, in transversal section, an internal combustion motor effected in accor­ dance with the object of the present invention, concretely at the level of one of its chambers or unitary operative groups.

PREFERENTIAL EXECUTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Looking at this figure can be observed how the proposed internal combustion motor is integrated, how con­ventional is, starting from one block (1), complemented with a yoke piece (2), on which are fixed the intake valves (3),and the exhaust (4), assisted by the respective springs (5), who tend towards a closing situation of the valves accioned al­so for respective cam disc (6), being possible to have as­sisted by compressor tube (8), the intake or exhaust con­duction (7).

[0010] Starting from this bassic structurization, the invention is centered in the fact that each chamber or u­nitary operative group materializes in two cylinders (9-9′) in which act two pistons (10-10′) linked articulately to the corresponding arms (11-11′), being, obviously, related both cylinders (9-9′) between themselves by mean of a co­mmunicating pass (12), to really configurate a chamber or unique operative group, a communicating pass (12) where will be put, preferently, the spark plug or injector so that this last element do not obstruct the placing of the intake and exhaust valves (3-4), so that above element is in the more suitable position for those valves.

[0011] The arms (11-1′) are fitted on the respective crankshafts (13-12′), which is to say, that the motor in­corporates two crankshafts parallels in front of the unique crankshaft of conventional alternative motors and each pair of arms (11-11′) corresponding to the same operative group will be related between themselves through toothed sectors (14-14′) who put itselves in gear permanently and secure a perfect synchronism in the lineal shifting of the pistons corresponding (10-10′) or, which is the same, a perfect sychronism between the two crankshafts (13-13′) which, through any conventional mean provide the movement to an unique axle of exit.

[0012] It is obtained, this way, in accordance with the aim of the invention, an optimal functioning of the intake and exhaust valves, a maximum dimensioning for the same and a suitable position together with a major balance in the transmission of efforts to the axle of exit plus a substantial elimination of vibrations in the motor.

[0013] Is not considered necessary to make this descrip­tion more extensive, for any expert in the matter will un­derstand the scope of the invention and the advantages de­riving from the same.

[0014] The materials, shape, size and set up of the ele­ments can be variated, if and when, that do not mean any change to the invention in its essence.

[0015] The terms under which this study has been made must be taken always in its broad - non strict - sense.
