ABSTRACT:
A split internal combustion engine wherein a first unit having one or more cylinders can be coupled to a second unit by an accelerating friction clutch. Direct torque-transmitting connection between the crankshafts of the two units is established in automatic response to acceleration of the second unit to a speed such that its crankshaft slightly overtakes the crankshaft of the first unit. The mechanism which serves to effect direct transmission of torque between the two units is designed to eliminate play between such units as well as to compensate for wear upon its parts and the parts of the clutch.
