DEFINITION

Classification: 123/318

Rear compression of air or combustible mixture to be subsequently pumped into the working cylinder:

(under subclass 311) Subject matter wherein the charge or some part of the charge is compressed by the engine working piston on its downstroke in a volume other than that of the engine crankcase.

(1) Note. This volume is generally immediately adjacent the connecting rod side of the engine piston and is sealed at the passage of the connecting rod to the crankcase. The pressurized air or mixture is pumped into the cylinder to insure complete filling.
