20090012699 | Method for Operating a Two-Stroke Engine - A two-stroke engine has a cylinder with a combustion chamber delimited by a reciprocating piston, wherein the piston drives in rotation a crankshaft, and wherein a spark plug projects into the combustion chamber and ignites a fuel/air mixture. The two-stroke engine further has devices for supplying fuel and combustion air to the combustion chamber and a control unit that determines the ignition timing based on an ignition map. The ignition map indicates the ignition timing as a function of the engine speed for at least one first and one second operating states and for at least one first and one second engine speed ranges. The engine is controlled in that for an engine cycle the ignition timing is set in the second operating state at least within the first engine speed range based on the engine speed and on the number of engine cycles since the last combustion. | 01-08-2009 |
20100011754 | Exhaust Gas Muffler - An exhaust gas muffler for an internal combustion engine, especially the engine of a manually-guided implement such as a power saw, a cut-off machine, or the like. The muffler has a housing having an inlet for exhaust gases and an outlet out of the housing. The housing has an outer wall over which the exhaust gases from the outlet flow. To achieve an adequate cooling of the exhaust gas muffler and the discharging exhaust gases, the exhaust gases out of the outlet draw in atmospheric air between the exhaust gases and the outer wall of the housing. | 01-21-2010 |
20110086528 | Spark Plug Socket - A spark plug socket has an elastic base member and a contact element secured in the base member. The base member has a spark plug receptacle for a spark plug and the contact element has a contact receptacle for a terminal of the spark plug. The spark plug socket is removable in a removing direction from the spark plug. In an unloaded state of the spark plug socket arranged on the spark plug, a section of the contact receptacle engages behind the terminal of the spark plug in the removing direction of the spark plug socket. A longitudinal center axis of the contact receptacle is slanted relative to a longitudinal center axis of the spark plug receptacle. The contact element is adjustable against an elasticity of the base member such that an angle between the longitudinal center axis of the contact receptacle and the longitudinal center axis of the spark plug receptacle is reduced. | 04-14-2011 |

20080264388 | Method for operating an internal combustion engine - A method for operating an internal combustion engine having a fuel system which feeds fuel at a given pressure to a metering valve provides that a controller defines the opening time and the closing time of the metering valve and correspondingly actuates the metering valve so that the metering valve opens and closes at the defined times. In order to permit precise metering of fuel even in high-speed internal combustion engines there is provision for the controller to define at least one of the times for the opening or closing of the metering valve while taking into account the counterpressure actually prevailing at the outlet opening of the metering valve. | 10-30-2008 |
20110108002 | IGNITION MODULE HAVING A BUS LINE - The invention relates to a portable hand-guided work apparatus having an internal combustion engine ( | 05-12-2011 |
20130112180 | IGNITION DEVICE FOR A TWO-STROKE ENGINE - The invention relates to an ignition device for triggering an ignition spark at a spark plug by way of an ignition generator. The latter includes a magnet wheel, which has two permanent magnets arranged at a spacing from each other in the peripheral direction and a magnetic yoke. The magnetic yoke carries a charging coil which charges an ignition capacitor, a primary coil and a secondary coil, connected, to the spark plug. During every passing of a permanent magnet, a voltage is induced in the coils, wherein, in order to trigger the ignition spark, the ignition capacitor is discharged via a switch element. In order to avoid an unwanted ignition at the bottom dead center of the piston, a device for reducing the voltage that occurs at the spark plug is provided. | 05-09-2013 |
20140165964 | Method for operating an internal combustion engine of a hand-guided power tool - In a power tool, an internal combustion engine is coupled by a clutch to a tool member. An ignition control device is provided that for each engine speed of the internal combustion engine specifies at least one ignition timing. For each engine speed of a first engine speed range a correlated first ignition timing is specified, wherein each first ignition timing is an ignition timing of a first ignition timing range. For each engine speed of a second engine speed range, adjoining the first engine speed range, a correlated second ignition timing is specified, wherein each second ignition timing is an ignition timing of a second ignition timing range. The first ignition timing is retarded by at least 5° crank angle relative to the second ignition timing. The first engine speed range extends at least from the coupling engine speed range to the limit engine speed of approximately 7,000 RPM. | 06-19-2014 |
