TWO-STROKE ENGINE FOR WORKING MACHINE AND SERIES HYBRID DEVICE FOR WORKING MACHINE INCORPORATING THE SAME

A two-stroke engine (4) has a throttle motor (22) for driving a throttle valve (20), a fuel injection device (430) disposed in an intake system (18) including a crank chamber (420), and a control unit (24) controlling the throttle motor (22) and the fuel injection device. The two-stroke engine (4) is designed to achieve an engine rotation speed of 4,500 rpm to 7,000 rpm when the throttle valve (20) is fully open. The two-stroke engine (4) is operated with the throttle full open by the control unit (24), and a battery (8) is charged with electric power generated by a generator (6) using the two-stroke engine.
