ABSTRACT:
A two-cycle internal combustion engine has a plurality of parallel cylinders supporting a central drive shaft, a piston in each cylinder having an outer extension connected to a swash plate rotatably mounted on an inclined portion of the drive shaft. The swash plate adjacent portions of the drive shaft and the connection of the piston rods to the swash plate are in sealed oil-filled chambers at opposite ends of the cylinders. Ball and socket joints by which the pistons are connected to the swash plates are slidable radially of the swash plate to function as pumps forcing oil from the swash plate chamber through central tubes in hollow extensions into the pistons for lubricating and cooling the pistons and cylinders, after which the oil returns through the hollow piston rods to the oil chamber. Preferably the invention is embodied in an opposed piston engine having swash plates adjacent both ends of the cylinder.
