Abstract: A rotary combustion engine having a split carrier with or without an integral stationary phasing gear wherein the carrier halves with bearing halves mounted thereon are bolted together about an intermediate main journal on the crankshaft and the assembly is then insertable in an opening in an intermediate wall in the engine housing. The assembled carrier is held against the wall of this opening to receive the combustion gas pressure force by spring loaded dowels that permit slight angular movement of the split carrier to dampen gear tooth shock or carrier motion.
