    摘要: This invention uses a body force to trap the liquid component of a fluid in local potential minimums in a continuous cavity in an expander. Shaping of the cavity traps the vapor components of the fluid between these "liquid pistons". In the external combustion embodiment, the cavities have a continuously increasing cross section. Therefore, the surface pressure of the fluid generates an unbalanced force on the containing expander. The cavities are shaped such that components of the unbalanced forces combine to generate a torque, which rotates the expanders. In the preferred embodiment, some of this rotational force is fed back by gearing to revolve the expanders around a rotor axis. This revolving generates a centrifugal body force on the fluid in the expander cavities. In the internal combustion embodiment, the expander stages are preceded by decreasing cross section stages which compress the fuel air mixture. The mixture is ignited and expands in the following stages. This expansion allows external work to be done.

    摘要: A device is provided for use in examining the piston rings of free-floating piston engines wherein power from the pistons is transmitted to the engine''s power output shaft through a hydrostatic motion converter system. The device includes piston detector means associated with each of the pistons in the engine for respectively producing a continuous output signal corresponding to the momentary or instantaneous position of their associated piston. A shaft detector is located adjacent the engine''s output shaft and is adapted to produce an output signal corresponding to the momentary or instantaneous angular position of the shaft. Independent comparator means are operatively connected between each of the piston detectors and the shaft detector for comparing the signals produced thereby and generating separate synchronization error signals for each of the pistons. Fluid control means is operatively connected to the comparator means for selectively adding liquid to or removing liquid from the hydrostatic converter system in response to the synchronizing signal so that the synchronization error between the pistons and the shaft is reduced. An adjustable signal generator for selectively producing output signals corresponding to predetermined output shaft positions, is selectively connected to the comparator means by a switch so that when the signal generator is connected to the comparators, the latter generate predetermined synchronization error signals to operate the fluid control means and thereby move the pistons to predetermined positions independently of the actual position of the engine''s output shaft.
