A straight-three engine (also called an inline-triple or inline-three) [1] [2] [3] is a three-cylinder piston engine where cylinders are arranged in a line along a common crankshaft. Less common than straight-four engine , straight-three engines have nonetheless been used in various motorcycles, cars and agricultural machinery.
1919 Napier Lion II aircraft engine with three cylinder banks. Any design of motor/engine,be it a V or a boxer can be called an "in-line" if it's mounted in-line with the frame/chassis and in-line with the direction of travel of the vehicle.When the motor/engine is across the frame/chassis this is called a TRANSVERSE motor.Cylinder arrangement is not in the description of how the motor/engine ...
All engines developed within this family have aluminum cylinder block and head, double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, and MIVEC continuous variable valve timing. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The 3B20 was designed with the " rear midship " layout in mind but is not limited to that.
The third cylinder and Gresley gear are visible below the smokebox of this 4-12-2. Gresley conjugated valve gear was used by the American Locomotive Company under license for the 4-12-2 locomotives, the Union Pacific 9000 class, built for the Union Pacific Railroad between 1926 and 1930. These were the largest locomotives to use this valve gear.
These engines use a single camshaft per cylinder bank, paired with a balancing shaft for inline engines, or a second camshaft for the other cylinder bank in vee-block engines. The flywheel drives either one camshaft or the balancing shaft via an idler gear , depending on the specific engine configuration.
The 2si 808 is a family of in-line three cylinder, liquid-cooled, two-stroke, dual ignition, aircraft engines that were designed for ultralight aircraft. [1]The basic engine was originally designed and produced by JLO-Motorenwerke of Germany and was later acquired by the AMW Cuyuna Engine Company of Beaufort, South Carolina and marketed under the Cuyuna brand name.
The Rhino Passive Infrared Defeat System (also known simply as Rhino) was an early detonation Counter-IED system. It was mounted to the front of a vehicle and used heat to prematurely detonate any hidden improvised explosive devices (IEDs) while the vehicle was at a safe distance away from the blast.
It was the first Atlas engine, and was introduced in 2002 for the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, and Oldsmobile Bravada. The engine was also used in the Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X, and Isuzu Ascender. It displaces 4.2 L (4,160 cc; 253.9 cu in), with a 93 mm × 102 mm (3.66 in × 4.02 in) bore and stroke.
