Internal combustion engine with an engine-peripheral connection of an ignition chamber assigned to a main combustion chamber

摘要

The invention relates to an internal combustion engine (100) having a combustion chamber (I) and an ignition chamber (II) assigned to the combustion chamber (I), which is in fluid communication with the combustion chamber (I), the ignition chamber (II) having a branch duct (II .4). It is provided that the branch channel (II.4) is used to supply a fluid gaseous combustion medium to the ignition chamber (II) and / or to discharge a residual gas of the burned combustion medium, the ignition chamber (II) via the Branch duct (II.4) also with at least one engine-peripheral component (K1, K2, K3) of the internal combustion engine (100) via at least one connecting duct (11.41, II.42, outgoing from the branch duct (II.4)) II.43, II.44) is in fluid communication. Various procedures for operating the internal combustion engine (100) and the removal of residual gas from the ignition chamber (II) are also presented.
