  "textContent": "A reciprocating piston combustion engine (1) is presented that has at least one cylinder (4), at least one piston (6) which is movably arranged within the at least one cylinder, and a crankshaft (2) which is rotatably arranged in a crankshaft housing, with every piston (6) being connected to the crankshaft (2) via a connecting rod (9) having an upper and lower bearing (14a, 14b) to drive the crankshaft. The reciprocating piston combustion engine (1) is additionally provided with an eccentric tappet (15) at the lower bearing (14b) of the at least one connecting rod (9) and with a locking mechanism (16) for locking the eccentric tappet (15) either to the connecting rod (9) or to a corresponding crank pin (2a) of the crankshaft (2) to operate the reciprocating piston combustion engine changeably at a first or second compression ratio respectively.",
