INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH MULTI-CYLINDER PISTONS, COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO CYLINDER BLOCKS

摘要

In this engine comprising two blocks (2, 3) of cylinders, to each of which is associated an exhaust gas conduit (4, 5) containing a catalyst (6, 7), a block (3) of cylinders which can be stopped in the partial load operation of the internal combustion engine, and a connection section (8) between the conduits (4, 5) of the exhaust gases, this section is arranged upstream of the catalysts (6, 7) between the sections channeling (9, 10) of the conduits (4, 5) of the exhaust gas, and a length compensation element (13) is arranged in the connection section (8). Application to internal combustion engines with several cylinder blocks.
