摘要:
The Compact Non Vibrating Endothermic Engine (CoNVEE in the following) is an internal combustion engine with reciprocating motion of the pistons, whose innovative architecture makes it more compact, given the same delivered power, with respect to the current state of the art. This happens both because the CoNVEE core occupies a very reduced volume, and also because it does not require the presence of any additional compensation or damping of mechanical vibrations. In fact all the moving parts of the CoNVEE are already internally compensated: they act in perfect anti-symmetry compensating each inertia force developed, excluding, of course, that of the motor shaft which is indispensable for the generation of the useful mechanical energy. The intrinsic compactness of the CoNVEE is made possible by the new and characteristic mechanism adopted for the motion transfer from the pistons to the motor shaft. The CoNVEE may be conveniently used with any type of propulsion fuel and, particularly, for those applications which require high power density and low vibration in the motor.

A rotary valve cam engine of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,456,630 and No. 4,610,223, where the bearing area to take the rotational forces of the cams and the thrust forces of the pistons are improved. Also an improved means of sealing the compression and power strokes of the pistons without inducing friction forces against the rotary valve. Also an improved cam structure which shortens the length of the engine.
摘要:
An engine structure and mechanism that operates on various combustion processes in a two-stroke-cycle without supplemental cooling or lubrication comprises an axial assembly of cylindrical modules and twin, double-harmonic cams that operate with opposed pistons in each cylinder through fully captured rolling contact bearings. The engine may comprise one or more pairs of axially symmetric cylinder modules which with their opposed pistons perform perfectly balanced reciprocating and rotary motions at all loads and speeds. The opposed pistons are double-acting, performing a two-stroke engine power cycle on facing ends and induction and scavenge air compression on their outside ends, all within the same cylinder bore.

An internal combustion engine includes at least one piston (1) which is reciprocally received in a cylinder (2) which is coupled to a rotary output shaft (17) by a coupling (5, 22) which converts reciprocal movement of the piston into rotary movement of the output shaft. The engine is so arranged that, in use, the fuel/air mixture in the or each cylinder ignites at a predetermined ignition time in the operation cycle of the engine. The coupling is so arranged or programmed that on its compression stroke the speed of the piston deceases abruptly substantially at the ignition time and that the speed of the piston subsequently increases prior to reaching the top dead center position.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine is described in which the piston movement is parallel to the drive shaft. The engine cylinders are arranged in opposed pairs and the piston rods directly coupled so that the power stroke in one cylinder can assist with the compression stroke in the associated cylinder. The coupled or common piston rods have attached thereto a carriage that engages in a cam groove in the drive shaft. The drive shaft cam groove receives the force of the carriage as it is propelled by the pistons and the resulting torque causes a rotation of the drive shaft. The cylinders include a precompression chamber that assists in the exchange of combustion products with air. The internal combustion engine does not require special cooling and does not require a starter motor.
