Abstract

In an inlet system for a two-cycle internal combustion engine which includes a cylinder with a piston reciprocating therein between a top dead center position and a bottom dead center position and in which at least two rows of scavenging air flow passages are arranged in separate flow planes around the cylinder adjacent the bottom dead center position of the piston which are closed by the piston when it is remote from the bottom dead center position, each of the separate flow planes includes independent air flow control components for independently controlling the admission of scavenging air to the scavenging air passages in the different flow planes.
