Abstract

A stratified scavenging two-cycle engine, whose simple configuration can satisfy the regulation of emission rate of THC in exhaust gas, includes: a cylinder block (4), housing a piston (1) so as to be vertically slidable and having an exhaust port (14) and a scavenging port (16) in a sidewall; a scavenging flow passage (22), for connection between a crank chamber (8) and the scavenging port (16); an air supply flow passage (24), connected to the scavenging flow passage (22) and supplying air through a check valve (26); and a mixture supply flow passage (20), for supplying mixture to the crank chamber (8). The supply quantity ratio R=qa/Qf, which is the ratio of a supply quantity qa of air flowing through the air supply flow passage (24) to a supply quantity Qf of mixture flowing through the mixture supply flow passage (20) during a suction stroke in which pressure in the crank chamber (8) is negative, is in the range of 0.7.ltoreq.R.ltoreq.1.4.
