Abstract: A hypotrochoid positive-displacement machine includes an inner rotor and an outer rotor with intermeshing projections. During rotation of the rotors, the inward-most tips of the outer rotor trace hypotrochoid paths relative to the inner rotor. A driven rotor, for example the inner rotor, drives a driven rotor, for example the outer rotor, by contact between driving surfaces and driven surfaces of the respective rotors. Improvements are provided, for example in relation to the contact between the rotors. In use of the device contact between the driving surfaces and driven surfaces may move radially outward from a point of initial contact. The driving or driven surfaces or both may be arranged to flex under contact between the rotors. The driving surfaces may be convex. The driven surfaces may be concave.
