Abstract

Valve-controlled internal combustion engine with air compression, for non-self-igniting fuels, comprising an injection nozzle for direct fuel injection into a combustion chamber provided in the piston, and a spark plug, and further comprising devices imparting a torque to the incoming combustion air. To obtain reliable ignition by simple means, the spark plug is positioned in the central area of the combustion chamber and a multi-hole injection nozzle is used.
