ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine of the in-line type which has sets of cylinders in which a full-sized chamber is aligned between a pair of half-sized power chambers. Sets of pistons movable in corresponding ones of the cylinders define the chambers within the cylinders respectively. Pistons are connected to a crankshaft so that the pistons which define the half-sized power chambers move together in unison in a direction which is opposite to that which the piston which defines the full-sized chamber moves. Each half-sized chamber defines a volumetric displacement which is substantially one half that of the full-sized chamber.
