ABSTRACT:
A split cycle internal combustion engine of the kind described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,408,811, in which the only ignition means is heat supplied from an external source such as an incandescent tube or a heater for the admitted air and which advance and retardance of the ignition is effected by automatically controlling the timing of the admission of fuel and the heated air to the combustion chamber in response to the load upon the engine. This is achieved by lengthening or shortening a pivoted telescopic lever attached to the cam followers for the fuel pump and the transfer valve admitting the air. By driving the low pressure stage of the compressor from a different throw of the crankshaft from the higher pressure stages, a compact and well-balanced engine may be designed.
