Abstract

A six-stroke cycle for a petrol or diesel internal combustion engine, the engine having at least one cylinder 34 with one piston 6 and at least three engine cylinder valves 2, 4 and 16 for petrol engines, figures 1 to 6, or at least two engine cylinder valves 2, 4 for diesel engines, figures 7 to 12. The six-stroke cycle comprises of three downward movements and three upward movements of any one piston 6. First stroke: induction of air or air/fuel mixture; second stroke: compression; third stroke: expansion (working stroke); fourth stroke: exhaust; fifth stroke, fig. 5: induction of air only, and sixth stroke: exhaust of air and any remaining gases from the combustion chamber. The six-stroke cycle is equal to thee turns of the engine which is equal to thee turns of the crankshaft. Because strokes five and six use air and not fuel, this means an increase in fuel economy, and lower exhaust emissions. The valve timing arrangements are arranged to open and close all the engine cylinder valves within the appropriate timing constraints of the six-stroke cycle.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> IMPROVEMENTS TO INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES This invention relates to internal combustion engines and in particular the strokes of the engine cycle.
It is known that the four strokes of an internal combustion engine are stroke one, induction stroke, stroke two, compression stroke. Stroke three, power stroke, and stroke four, exhaust stroke. Stroke one induction stroke, the inlet valve is open, the exhaust valve closed. The piston descends, drawing a flow of air and fuel mixture into the combustion chamber, soon after this stroke, the inlet valve is closed. Stroke two compression stroke, both inlet and exhaust valves are closed. The rising piston compresses the air and fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. Stroke three power stroke, both valves remain closed. A spark from the spark-plug ignites the compressed air and fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. Expansion of burning gas drives the piston down. Just before the end of this stroke the exhaust valve starts to open. Stroke four exhaust stroke, the inlet valve is closed, and exhaust valve open. The piston rises to expel burnt gases from the combustion chamber. Just before the end of this stroke the inlet valve starts to open, exhaust valve closing. Then the cycle starts again. The four strokes are equal to two complete turns of the crankshaft, and one complete turn of the camshaft.
The expulsion of burnt gases happens every forth stroke any reduction in these gases will be beneficial, and result in lower exhaust emissions for a cleaner environment.
It is an object of the invention to provide an improved cycle for an internal combustion engine petrol or diesel,
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
According to the present invention there is provided A six-stroke cycle for an internal combustion engine petrol or diesel, the said engine having at least one cylinder, wherein the or each cylinder having one piston, and at least two engine cylinder valves for diesel engines. At least three engine cylinder valves for petrol engines. The engine cylinder valves being operated by one or more camshafts. The or each camshaft being arranged to open and close each valve within the appropriate timing constraint of the six-stroke cycle. Each stroke of the six-stroke cycle is equivalent to a downward or an upward movement of any one piston of any one cylinder; therefore the six-stroke cycle comprises of three upward and three downward movements of a piston. The six-stroke cycle is also equivalent to three complete turns of the engine, which is equivalent to three complete turns of the crankshaft. Every valve of each cylinder opening and closing at different times, although two valves can be slightly open at once (valve overlap). The six strokes in order are stroke one piston moving down, drawing fuel and air mixture into the combustion chamber, with diesel engines air only being drawn into the combustion chamber. Stroke two piston moving up, the fuel and air mixture is compressed in the combustion chamber, with diesel engines air only being compressed in the combustion chamber. Stroke three piston moving down, the ignited fuel and air mixture forces the piston down. Stroke four piston moving up, the burnt gases are expelled from the combustion chamber. Stroke five piston moving down, drawing air only into the combustion chamber.

It will be appreciated that the described system can be applied to any internal combustion engine having at least one piston and cylinder incorporating at least two valves per cylinder for diesel engines and at least three valves per cylinder for petrol engines. One or more camshafts, and the said camshafts operating the valves within the appropriate timing constraints of the six-stroke cycle. For example opening and closing the valves at the right time and in some cases opening and closing the valves twice in the said six-stroke cycle. Because stroke five draws air into the combustion chamber and stroke six expels air from the combustion chamber these two strokes are cleaning the combustion chamber of burnt gases and unburned fuel. So that ignition of the fuel and air mixture in the next power stroke (stroke three) of the next cycle is improved.
Because there is a stroke that expels air from the combustion chamber this will mean lower exhaust emissions.
<Desc/Clms Page number 6>
Because stroke five draws air into the combustion chamber and stroke six expels air from the combustion chamber this means that the engine cylinder valves will operate at a lower temperature because of the air passing over them thus an increase in the valves lifetime.
With diesel engines it will be easier four the engine to rotate the diesel pump, because the diesel pump will rotate at a slower speed than a conventional diesel engines diesel pump to keep the diesel pump timing correct within the six-stroke cycle. For example a conventional diesel pump will inject diesel into the or each combustion chamber once in every fourth stroke which is equal to two complete turns of the crankshaft. With the six-stroke cycle engine, the diesel pump injects diesel into the or each combustion chamber once in every sixth stroke which is equal to three complete turns of the crankshaft.
Because stroke five and stroke six use air and not fuel this means an increase in fuel economy.
Thus in accordance with the invention, there is provided an internal combustion engine, petrol or diesel comprising a six-stroke cycle, for improving fuel economy, lowering exhaust emissions, longer life for the engine cylinder valves, and less mechanical wear on the diesel PUMP.
