General information
- Short Summary
-
A Slovenian company developed an engine charging ring, for all internal combustion engines, as a new construction or renovation of existing engines, that is designed to reduce consumption, emissions and detonations.
The company is looking for a partner interested in Investment agreement, Commercial agreement with technical assistance or Research and development cooperation agreement. - Full Description
-
The invention of the Slovenian company can be used and is designed for all internal combustion engines in order to improve their thermal efficiency, thus reducing fuel consumption and harmful emissions.
It can be used both in Otto and Wankel petrol and diesel two- and four-stroke engines, as well as these engines in marine applications, which use specific fuels.
The subject of the invention is an engine charging ring or a special additionally installed combustion chamber or compression chamber in the area of the primary ignition of mixture (next to the spark plug or heater glow plug), composed of three functional elements, which can be used in different modified forms for all known internal combustion engines in order to ensure the ignition of lean mixtures which could not be ignited by the spark or heater glow plug.
For better understanding, the term “compression chamber” is explained. Conceptually, the compression chamber is also a combustion chamber, comprised of a volume between the engine piston at top dead center and engine head and the secondary volume located directly below the ring, and a primary volume located between the ring and the plug or the heater glow plug.
The use of the proposed invention in engines further prevents engine knock (detonations), which allows for the construction of engines with higher compression ratio, thus increasing their efficiency.
The proposed invention in the form of the construction and use of the engine charging ring 1 installed below the spark plug 3.1 (or heater glow plug 3.2 for diesel engine) partially divides the compression chamber 1.3 into two parts:
1. The upper primary ignition part and the secondary operating part – hereinafter referred to as the primary volume 1.1.
2. The lower primary operating part and the secondary ignition part – hereinafter referred to as the secondary volume 1.2.
3. The ring 1.0 is the link between both volumes and has the function of containing fuel in the primary volume and providing additional turbulence of fuel mixture on ignition. - Advantages and Innovations
-
By using the proposed invention in practice, the compression ratio can be structurally increased, and a substantially leaner mixture can be cumulatively supplied to the engine, which results in higher efficiency, lower consumption and reduced emissions of hazardous substances into the environment without risk of detonations.
The engine charging ring can be used in all internal combustion engines.
The purpose and the function of the engine charging ring 1 is to lower fuel consumption and reduce harmful emissions by using a lean fuel mixture, allowed by the engine charging ring 1. - Stage of Development
