Description: |
| Abstract:
A spherical or cylindrical combustion c'hamber 7, formed in either the cylinder head or the piston, is connected to the cylinder by a short tangential passage 11, along the axis of which the liquid fuel is injected. The passage 11, the diameter of which is less than a quarter, and preferably slightly less than a sixth, of the cylinder bore, may be formed in a screwed-in plug 9, the upper wall 12 of which is as thin as possible compatible with strength; a shallow depression 13 overlaps the mouth of the passage 11. If the combustion chamber is cylindrical its axis is either horizontal or vertical, and in the latter case the passage 11 is eccentric and inclined as shown in Fig. 11, where the combustion chamber is in the cylinder head and the passage mouth overlaps the edge of the cylinder bore. |
