    摘要: An internal combustion engine may include an engine block, a cylinder defining at least one combustion chamber, and a piston in the cylinder. The piston may travel in a first stroke from one end to an opposite end of the cylinder, and may be sized relative to the cylinder to enable an expansion stroke portion of the first stroke while the piston travels under gas expansion pressure, and a momentum stroke portion of the first stroke for the remainder of the first stroke following the expansion stroke portion. A passageway may be formed in the piston rod to communicate gas flow between a first combustion chamber and an area external to the cylinder when the piston is in a first position, and to communicate gas flow between a second combustion chamber and an area external to the cylinder when the piston is in a second position.

    摘要: Disclosed is a turbocharged dual-fuel engine, including a first driving system, a second driving system, a third driving system and a fourth driving system. The first driving system, the second driving system, the third driving system and the fourth driving system have the same structure. The first driving system includes a cylinder body in a gas compression device, a gas delivery pipe, a one-dimensional internal combustion engine, a tenth motor, an axial-flow gas compressor and a first lever braking device in a natural gas storage device. The tenth motor is connected with the axial-flow gas compressor. The axial-flow gas compressor is driven by the tenth motor.

    摘要: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards free-piston combustion engines. As described herein, a driver section may be provided in a free-piston combustion engine for storing energy during an expansion stroke. The driver section may be configured to store sufficient energy to perform the subsequent stroke. In some embodiments, the driver section may be configured to store sufficient energy so as to enable the engine to operate continuously across engine cycles without electrical energy input. A linear electromagnetic machine may be provided in a free-piston combustion engine for converting the kinetic energy of a piston assembly into electrical energy.
