ABSTRACT:
A spring-loaded piston is slidably arranged in an auxiliary chamber opening into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The spring-loading of the piston is preset so that the piston retracts at a certain high pressure attained during the combustion process, thereby increasing the combustion chamber volume. This enables higher compression ratios to be used than is otherwise possible.
