The Gurkha engine preserved at the Fleet Air Arm Museum, Yeovilton, Somerset, England, is the only surviving Sunbeam side-valve engine in the world. It is installed in the Short 184, aircraft number 8359, that played a minor role in the Battle of Jutland at the end of May 1916. The pilot on that occasion was Flight Lieutenant Frederick Rutland ...
The Toyota 1ZR-FAE is a DOHC, 16-valve, 1.6 L (1,598 cc) engine also equipped with Dual VVT-i and Valvematic. Output for this engine is rated at 132 hp (98 kW) at 6400 rpm and 118 lb⋅ft (160 N⋅m) of torque at 4400 rpm for most applications. Compression ratio has been increased to 10.7:1, red line is at 6600 rpm.
An overhead valve (OHV) engine, sometimes called a pushrod engine, is a piston engine whose valves are located in the cylinder head above the combustion chamber. This contrasts with flathead engines, where the valves were located below the combustion chamber in the engine block. Although an overhead camshaft (OHC) engine also has overhead ...
Camless piston engine. A camless or free-valve piston engine is an engine that has poppet valves operated by means of electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic [1] actuators instead of conventional cams. Actuators can be used to both open and close valves, or to open valves closed by springs or other means. Camshafts normally have one lobe per ...
The first CamPro engine used in older Gen-2 models.. The first CamPro engine made its debut in 2004 fitted to the newly released Gen•2 models. It was codenamed S4PH and was a DOHC 16-valve 1.6-litre engine that produced 110 bhp (82 kW) of power at 6,000 rpm and 148 N⋅m (109 ft⋅lbf) of torque at 4,000 rpm.
The Argyll aircraft engine was the first four stroke sleeve valve engine built for aircraft use. Manufactured by the Scottish car maker Argylls in 1914, the engine was a 120 hp straight-six design utilising Burt-McCollum single sleeve valves which eliminated the need for poppet valves. The Argyll aircraft engine was exhibited to the British War ...
The sleeve valve is a type of valve mechanism for piston engines, distinct from the usual poppet valve. Sleeve valve engines saw use in a number of pre– World War II luxury cars and in the United States in the Willys-Knight car and light truck. They subsequently fell from use due to advances in poppet-valve technology, including sodium ...
Valvetrain. 1969 AMC V8 overhead valve engine. The rocker cover has been removed, so the pushrods, rocker arms, valve springs, and valves are visible. A valvetrain is a mechanical system that controls the operation of the intake and exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine. [ 1] The intake valves control the flow of air/fuel mixture (or ...
