ABSTRACT:
A two-cycle engine system of the crankcase precompression type comprising the combination of a first engine, a second engine and a combustion chamber provided with an ignition plug constructed in such a manner that the second engine is mounted in parallel and adjacent to the first engine with the combustion chamber interconnecting the first and second engines, whereby the construction becomes very compact. A rich air-fuel mixture is supplied into the combustion chamber through the second engine for ignition and a lean mixture (or air) is supplied into the first engine for scavenging and combustion so that the system provides a very compact design as well as a satisfactory performance in the reduction of the amount of harmful components in the exhaust gases.
