2. Two-stroke power valve system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_power_valve_system

   The only moving parts inside simple two-stroke engines are the crankshaft, the connecting rod, and the piston. It is the same simplicity in design, however, that causes a two-stroke engine to be less fuel-efficient and produce high specific levels of undesirable exhaust gas emissions. At the bottom of the power stroke, the transfer ports, which ...

3. Joseph Day (inventor) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Day_(inventor)

   In fact there was at least one valve in Joseph Day's original design, a simple check valve in the inlet port communicating directly with the crankcase, where you would probably find a reed valve on a modern two stroke. His patent No.6,410 of 1891/2 covered variants with a piston controlled transfer port or an additional check valve in the crown ...

4. Rolls-Royce Crecy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_Crecy

   The Rolls-Royce Crecy was a British experimental two-stroke, 90-degree, V12, liquid-cooled aero-engine of 1,593.4 cu.in (26.11 L) capacity, featuring sleeve valves and direct petrol injection. Initially intended for a high-speed "sprint" interceptor fighter, the Crecy was later seen as an economical high-altitude long-range powerplant.

5. Two- and four-stroke engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-_and_four-stroke_engines

   The M4+2 engine, also known as the double-piston internal combustion engine, is a type of internal combustion engine invented by Polish patent holder Piotr Mężyk. [1] The M4+2 engine took its name from a combination of two-stroke engines and four-stroke engines. The two-stroke combustion engine is characterized by a simple construction and ...

6. Two-stroke engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_engine

   Animation of a two-stroke engine. A two-stroke (or two-stroke cycle) engine is a type of internal combustion engine that completes a power cycle with two strokes of the piston (one up and one down movement) in one revolution of the crankshaft in contrast to a four-stroke engine which requires four strokes of the piston in two crankshaft revolutions to complete a power cycle.

7. Engine configuration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_configuration

   The crankshaft configuration varies amongst opposed-engine designs. One layout has a flat/boxer engine at its center and adds an additional opposed-piston to each end so there are two pistons per cylinder on each side. An X engine is essentially two V engines joined by a common crankshaft. A majority of these were existing V-12 engines ...

8. List of Suzuki engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Suzuki_engines

   The E08A engine is a short-lived diesel engine engineered mostly for the Indian market. It is a small inline twin 4-stroke diesel engine with a bore × stroke of 77 mm × 85.1 mm (3.03 in × 3.35 in), giving 793 cc (48.4 cu in). [1] As a 360° parallel twin it features a Balance shaft located beside the crankshaft. This all aluminium engine is ...

9. Flat-twin engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-twin_engine

   Boxer crankshaft configuration. Most flat-twin engines use a boxer configuration for the crankshaft and are therefore called "boxer-twin" engines. In a boxer-twin engine, the 180° crankshaft moves the pistons in phase with each other, therefore the forces generated by one piston are cancelled out by the other, resulting in excellent primary balance.
