摘要:
An opposed-piston, two-stroke engine is provided and includes a first cylinder having a first longitudinal axis and a first pair of pistons slidably disposed within the first cylinder and movable toward one another in a first mode of operation and away from one another in a second mode of operation. The engine additionally includes a second cylinder having a second longitudinal axis and a second pair of pistons slidably disposed within the second cylinder and movable toward one another in the first mode of operation and away from one another in the second mode of operation. A crankshaft is connected to at least one of the first pair of pistons and at least one of the second pair of pistons and has an axis of rotation. The axis of rotation is disposed between and is substantially perpendicular to the first longitudinal axis and the second longitudinal axis.
