LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR RECIPROCATING PISTON ENGINE, METHOD OF LUBRICATION OF REPROCATING PISTON ENGINE AND RECIPROCATING PISTON ENGINE

摘要

The lubrication system has a lubricant nozzle (7) in the cylinder wall (3) for applying lubricant (8) to the bearing surface (2) of the cylinder wall in at least one compact jet (9) of lubricant directed onto the bearing surface. Atomization of the lubricant jet by the nozzle can be substantially prevented. The nozzle has several outlet openings for applying lubricant. Independent claims are also included for the following: a method of lubricating a bearing surface of a cylinder wall of a cylinder in an internal combustion engine and an internal combustion engine with an inventive system.
