Two Stroke Engine With Rotatably Modulated Gas Passage

View page
US Patent:
6901892, Jun 7, 2005
Filed:
May 28, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/446393
Inventors:
Nagesh S. Mavinahally - Anderson SC, US
Jay S. Veerathappa - Northridge CA, US
International Classification:
F02B033/04
US Classification:
123 73V
Abstract:
A two stroke internal combustion engine includes at least one gaseous communication passage between a crankcase chamber and a combustion chamber of the engine. A first rotary shut-off valve on a periphery of a rotatable circular disk is operatively disposed between the passage and the crankcase chamber and rotatably connected to a crankshaft of the engine. The valve includes at least one circumferentially extending pathway extending axially at least partially through the disk and is rotatably alignable with a crankcase port of the passage though the crankcase chamber. The circumferentially extending pathway extends circumferentially less than 180 degrees. Two particular embodiments of the pathways include rectangular cross-sectional slots and annular L-shaped pathways. The gaseous communication passage may be a transfer passage or a charge injection passage or both which are controlled two or more axially adjacent rotary shut-off valves on the periphery of the disk.

Mono-Shaft Four-Stroke Engine

View page
US Patent:
7000581, Feb 21, 2006
Filed:
Sep 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/659656
Inventors:
Nagesh Siddabasappa Mavinahally - Granada Hills CA, US
Jay S. Veerathappa - Northridge CA, US
International Classification:
F01L 1/30
US Classification:
123 9024, 123 9015, 123 902, 123 906
Abstract:
A 4-stroke engine incorporating a mono-shaft multi-valve operating system, the multi-valve operating system incorporating a first cam follower assembly that is associated with an intake valve, a second cam follower assembly that is associated with an exhaust valve, and a cam follower channel assembly that is integrated into a crank web of the engine, the cam follower channel assembly including a base circle channel, a cam channel, and a cross-over channel. The cam follower channel assembly is configured to commonly interact with the two cam follower assemblies to operate the intake valve at a first instance, and the exhaust valve at a second instance, with both instances occurring while the crank web completes two rotations. When either of the two cam follower assemblies engages with a cam channel of the cam follower channel assembly, the cam follower channel assembly is configured to provide a camming operation to operate the respective valve. When either of the two cam follower engages a base circle channel of the cam follower channel assembly, the cam follower channel assembly is configured to prevent operation of the respective valve.

Stratified Scavenged Two-Stroke Engine

View page
US Patent:
7093570, Aug 22, 2006
Filed:
Dec 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
11/026209
Inventors:
Nagesh S Mavinahally - Anderson SC, US
Jay S. Veerathappa - Northridge CA, US
International Classification:
F02B 33/04
F02B 25/00
US Classification:
123 73D, 123 73 PP
Abstract:
A two-stroke internal combustion engine includes at least one gaseous communication charge passage between a crankcase chamber and a combustion chamber of the engine and a piston to open and close the top end of the passage and a rotary valve to open and close the lower end of the transfer passage. The air inlet port to the transfer passage for stratified scavenging is opened and closed by the crank-web that has passages and cutouts. The rotary valve replaces the one-way reed valve used in stratified scavenged and charged two-stroke engines. The air passes from the lower end of transfer passage to the top end and into the crankcase through the piston passage, alternatively air may also pass through the adjacent transfer passage directly or through a passage in the piston into the crankcase. A two-stroke engine also consists of a charge injection system controlled by the crank web eliminating the one-way valve.

Carburetor With Intermediate Throttle Valve Blocking Position

View page
US Patent:
7104526, Sep 12, 2006
Filed:
Jun 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/459046
Inventors:
Nagesh S. Mavinahally - Anderson SC, US
Assignee:
Homelite Technologies, Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
F02M 7/26
F02M 23/09
US Classification:
261 46, 123 73 PP, 261 47, 261DIG 1
Abstract:
A carburetor including a frame having a first air/fuel channel and a second air channel; and a throttle valve assembly connected to the frame and having two valve sections. Each valve section is located in a respective one of the channels. A second one of the valve sections has an air bleed hole therethrough. The second valve section is movable relative to the frame from a first idle position to a second intermediate closed position and then to a third open position at a wide open throttle (WOT). The air bleed hole allows flow through the second channel at the first idle position, but does not allow flow through the second channel when the second valve section is at the second intermediate closed position.

Internal Combustion Engine Cylinder And Muffler Assembly With Catalytic Converter

View page
US Patent:
7146806, Dec 12, 2006
Filed:
Jul 7, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/887193
Inventors:
Nagesh S. Mavinahally - Anderson SC, US
Assignee:
Homelite Technologies, Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
F01N 3/10
US Classification:
60302, 60312, 60314, 60322, 60323, 60324, 123 65 PE, 123 65 A, 123 65 EM
Abstract:
A two cycle internal combustion engine cylinder having a piston chamber. The cylinder includes transfer ports; and an exhaust port divided into at least two sections. A first one of the sections has an aperture at the piston chamber with a top surface located closer to a top of the piston chamber than a top surface of an aperture of a second one of the sections at the piston chamber. The first section has a cross-sectional area which is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the second section. The aperture into the first section is located further away from the transfer ports than the aperture into the second section.

Stratified Scavenged Two-Stroke Engine

View page
US Patent:
7210433, May 1, 2007
Filed:
Aug 18, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/506334
Inventors:
Nagesh S. Mavinahally - Anderson SC, US
Jay S. Veerathappa - Northridge CA, US
International Classification:
F02B 33/04
F02B 25/00
US Classification:
123 73A, 123 73 D, 123 73 V, 123 73 PP
Abstract:
A two-stroke internal combustion engine includes dual transfer passages in gaseous communication between a crankcase chamber and a combustion chamber of the engine, an air passage through the crankcase to the crankcase chamber and in gaseous communication with a carburetor of the engine. A rotatable circular disk or crank-web is rotatably connected to a crankshaft. A piston may be used to open and close a top end of the passages. An air inlet port to the transfer passage for stratified scavenging is opened and closed by the crank-web that has passages and cutouts. The rotary valve replaces the one-way reed valve used in stratified scavenged and charged two-stroke engines. The air passes from lower ends of the transfer passages to top ends and into the crankcase through a piston passage, through the adjacent transfer passages directly, or through a passage in the piston into the crankcase.
