Optimize embodiment's detailed description
The partial sectional view of one internal-combustion engine 10 has been shown among Fig. 1, has wherein shown a cylinder 14 of internal-combustion engine 10.This internal-combustion engine 10 comprises a crankcase 18, and this crankcase 18 limits a crankcase chamber 22 and bent axle 26 can rotate in this crankcase chamber.Internal combustion (IC) engine airframe 30 defines cylinder 14.This body 30 also limits one by means of the suction port 34 of a transmission passage 38 with connection between cylinder 14 and the crankcase chamber 22.This body 30 also limits a relief opening 42.A but piston 46 to-and-fro motion and can be connected to drivingly on the bent axle 26 in cylinder 14 by means of connecting rod crank assembly 50.The upper end of one cylinder head, 54 closed cylinders 14 is so that limit a firing chamber 58.This internal-combustion engine 10 comprises that also is contained in an oil sprayer 62 that is used for fuel oil is sprayed into firing chamber 58 on the cylinder head 54.One spark plug 66 is loaded on this cylinder head 54 and stretches in the firing chamber 58.
Internal-combustion engine 10 comprises that also (referring to Fig. 2) predetermined instant after fuel oil has sprayed in the firing chamber 58 produces the delayed firing circuit 70 of an igniting spark in cylinder 14.As shown in Figure 2, this delayed firing circuit 70 comprises that one has data output 78, sprays the microprocessor 74 that indicator output 82 and one produces ignition spark output 86.As described below, this microprocessor 74 produces an igniting spark signal at output 86 places.Yet should understand: this ignition spark signal also can be produced by other suitable component (for example ECU-internal-combustion engine electronic control unit).This circuit 70 also comprises a timer 90, and this timer has a data input 94 time signal and that have eight bit register that is used to receive from data output 78 outputs of microprocessor 74.This timer 90 also has in the injection indicator output 82 that is connected to microprocessor 74 so that receive the triggering input 98 of the signal that has been started by microprocessor 74 from an expression course of injection of microprocessor 74.This timer 90 also comprises pulse output 102 when certain.
