Abstract

A cylinder head for a uniflow-scavenged two-stroke internal-combustion engine, particularly in motor vehicles, is provided with outlet valves which can be controlled by a camshaft. Outlet ducts connected with the outlet valves extend out of the cylinder head. A total of four outlet valves are provided for each cylinder, with the associated outlet ducts being guided to one side of the cylinder head. The camshaft is arranged laterally of the cylinder head opposite the outlet side of the outlet ducts. The outlet valves which are situated on the side facing away from the camshaft can be operated from the direction of the camshaft by way of operating members transversely penetrating the cylinder head.
