19 results about "Variable compression ratio" patented technology

Variable compression ratio is a technology to adjust the compression ratio of an internal combustion engine while the engine is in operation. This is done to increase fuel efficiency while under varying loads. Variable compression engines allow the volume above the piston at top dead centre to be changed. Higher loads require lower ratios to increase power, while lower loads need higher ratios to increase efficiency, i.e. to lower fuel consumption. For automotive use this needs to be done as the engine is running in response to the load and driving demands. The 2019 Infiniti QX 50 is the first commercially available car that uses a variable compression ratio engine.

Ignition timing control method and apparatus for an internal combustion engine

PendingJP2026105142ALow loadIgnition timing
In an internal combustion engine equipped with a variable compression ratio mechanism, abnormal noises caused by combustion pressure in a specific low-load operating range are appropriately suppressed by controlling the advance angle limit of the ignition timing. [Solution] The noise suppression advance ignition limit value calculation unit 101 includes a map search unit 102, an advance ignition limit value selection unit 103, a change rate limit unit 104, a change rate limit determination unit 105, and a dummy value output unit 106. When the region determination unit 107 determines that the operating point is within the noise region, it outputs the noise suppression advance ignition limit value OPDADV via the select-low unit 110. The final ignition timing is limited to the retarded side of the MBT point by this advance ignition limit value. The map search unit 102 includes an advance ignition limit value map for each engine state label ETDST corresponding to the compression ratio. When the compression ratio is high, the ignition timing is limited to the retarded side even more.

Atkinson engine with external variable compression

1. Atkinson engine with external variable compression. 2.1 There are several inventions in the Atkinson cycle that control compression within the engine; one is by varying the length of the connecting rod, and the other is by variably controlling the opening time of the intake valve beyond the bottom dead center of the connecting rod. Both solutions require extensive modifications to the engine design. The objective of this invention is to relocate the variable compression mechanism outside the engine. 2.2 By installing a check valve and a container whose volume can be changed in the inlet channel upstream of the inlet valve, the gas is directed into this container and pressurized when the inlet valve is open, passing over bottom dead center. 2.3. By changing the volume of the container, the pressure in the engine can be varied, thereby changing the compression ratio and also varying the engine's power output, without throttling losses through the carburetor.
