Abstract

A uniflow scavenging two-cycle engine includes an scavenging port having a swirling guide portion that guides scavenging gas into a cylinder in a direction inclined with respect to a radial direction of the cylinder, and a center guide portion that is provided to be closer to a crank side of the cylinder than the swirling guide portion and guides the scavenging gas further toward the center side of the cylinder than the swirling guide portion. At least a part of the center guide portion faces a piston when the piston is positioned at bottom dead center during the high compression ratio mode, and the center guide portion and the piston do not face each other or an area of facing the piston is smaller than that during the high compression ratio mode when the piston is positioned at bottom dead center during the low compression ratio mode.
