Abstract: An intermediate duct (108) is connected between first and second positive displacement machines (104, 106). An inlet duct (107) is connected to the first positive displacement machine (104). An outlet duct (109) is connected to the second positive displacement machine (106). A heater (102) raises the temperature and pressure of a gaseous working fluid in the intermediate duct (108). There is a kinematic connection (111) between the first and second positive displacement machines (104, 106) and the arrangement is such that, in operation, the first positive displacement machine (104) causes the working fluid to flow through the intermediate duct (108) to the second positive displacement machine (106), the heated working fluid drives the second positive displacement machine (106), and the second positive displacement machine (106) drives the first positive displacement machine (104) via the kinematic connection (111). The positive displacement machines include at least one orbiting piston. The heater (102) is preferably constituted by a condenser in a heat pump circuit (101-103).

Abstract: A casing 1 has a circular cylindrical internal surface 3 delimiting an operating chamber. An orbiting piston 4 in the operating chamber is mounted so as to orbit about a chamber axis which is the axis of the internal surface 3. The orbiting piston 4 has a circular cylindrical external surface 11, a generatrix of the external surface being adjacent to the said internal surface, and a diametrically opposite generatrix being spaced from the said internal surface. A vane member 17 mounted on the casing 1 has a tip face which faces the external surface of the orbiting piston and which has a length substantially equal to that of the orbiting piston 4. A linkage 71 connects the vane membe 17r to the orbiting piston 4 so as to keep the tip face of the vane member adjacent the external surface 11 of the orbiting piston. At least one of the external and internal surfaces (11,3) is provided with individual compliant strips 34 which are distributed around the said one surface, run parallel to one another, and project above the said one surface. The orbiting piston 4 comprises an extruded body.

Abstract: A casing (1) with a circular cylindrical internal surface (3) delimits an operating chamber. A rotor (4) orbits about a chamber axis which is the axis of the internal surface (3). The rotor (4) has a circular cylindrical external surface (11), a generatrix of which is adjacent to the internal surface (3), a diametrically opposite genetrix being spaced from the internal surface (3). A vane member (17), mounted on the casing (1) and pivotable about a pivot axis parallel to the chamber axis, is accommodated in a fluid inlet/outlet aperture (18) in the casing, the vane member having a passageway (17a) communicating between the exterior of the casing and the operating chamber. The vane member (17) has an arcuate face (17b) coaxial with the pivot axis, end faces (17b) towards the pivot axis, end faces (17c) extending from the respective lateral ends of the arcuate face (17b) towards the pivot axis, and a tip face (17g) adjacent the rotor (4), these faces (17b, 17c, 17g) being sealing faces with respect to corresponding surfaces of the aperture (18) and the rotor (4). A linkage (28) connects the vane member (17) to the rotor (4) so as to keep the tip face (17g) in sealing contact with the external surface (11) of the rotor, the linkage being connected to the vane member by an articulation having an articulation axis (30) such that a plane containing the articulation axis (30) and the axis of the external surface (11) passes through the region of sealing contact.
