ENGINE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240052793 titled 'ENGINE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a two-stroke internal combustion engine with an exhaust valve assembly that controls the exhaust cycle relative to crankshaft timing.

  • The exhaust valve assembly is positioned between the exhaust port and an exhaust pipe.
  • The assembly includes a rotary exhaust valve and valve phasing assembly.
  • The rotary exhaust valve has a valve body with a valve void for altering the timing of the intake and exhaust ports.
  • The exhaust port can be closed while the intake port remains open, allowing for cylinder charging.

      1. Potential Applications
  • Automotive industry for improved engine performance.
  • Small engine applications such as motorcycles and lawn equipment.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Allows for precise control of exhaust timing.
  • Enables optimization of engine performance and efficiency.
      1. Benefits
  • Increased engine efficiency.
  • Improved power output.
  • Reduced emissions.


Original Abstract Submitted

an engine system and method of operation therefor are provided. the system is a two-stroke internal combustion engine having an exhaust valve assembly that controls the exhaust cycle relative to crankshaft timing. the exhaust valve assembly is positioned between exhaust port and an exhaust pipe. the exhaust valve assembly comprises a rotary exhaust valve and valve phasing assembly. the rotary exhaust valve comprises a valve body defining a valve void therethrough. the use of the rotary exhaust valve allows for alteration or calibration of the fixed time and location at which the intake port and exhaust port are opened and closed by the piston with respect to the respective engine cycle. notably, while still uncovered by the piston, the exhaust port may be closed due to full misalignment of the valve void and the exhaust port, while the intake port remains open, allowing for cylinder charging.
