Abstract:
The device includes a valve adapted to be closed, when the intake of fuel is reduced, to prevent the entry of burnt gases into the intake pipe. The valve is actuated by a mechanism arranged so that the valve can be fully opened and can shut the intake pipe at a short distance from the peripheral surface of the combustion chamber of the engine. The device is especially useful for rotary piston engines with peripheral ports.
Abstract:
A rotary piston internal combustion engine, especially of trochoidal construction, which essentially consists of lateral parts, of at least one casing housing, in case of multi-disc internal combustion engines of one or several intermediate parts, of a piston rotating in the casing housing which slides along a multi-arched running surface of the casing and of a lubricating system for lubricating the running surface of the casing, the lubricating system itself consists of oil channels of which at least one terminates within the area of the running surface of the casing between the end flanks of the casing housing and the adjacent lateral or intermediate part.
Abstract:
In a rotary-piston, internal combustion engine in which pistons rotate about the axis of a cylindrical casing in circumferentially consecutive relationship in sealing engagement with the casing and move angularly relative to each other in such a manner that each pair of circumferentially consecutive pistons defines a combustion chamber of the engine which expands and contracts during rotation, the casing is formed with an intake port for admitting a fuel mixture to the expanding chambers and with an exhaust port and an auxiliary port juxtaposed circumferentially in the direction of piston movement for releasing the spent fuel mixture as combustion gases from the contracting chambers. A conduit extends from the exhaust port outward of the casing and terminates in a tapering, open nozzle. Another conduit extends from the auxiliary port and has a throat portion spacedly enveloping the nozzle so as to form a jet pump or ejector pump therewith, the pressure of the combustion gas discharged from the nozzle drawing additional gas at lower pressure from the combustion compartment.
Abstract:
An intake passageway for a rotary internal combustion engine having a housing provided with an epitrochoidal internal wall defining a cavity and a rotor rotatably disposed in the cavity and having a peripheral surface with a plurality of circumferentially spaced apex portions sealingly engaging with the epitrochoidal internal wall of the housing to define a plurality of working chambers, which intake passageway includes a plurality of partitions disposed in an opening portion of the intake passageway substantially in parallel to the flow of an air-fuel mixture passing therethrough for preventing engine exhaust gases from being sucked into one of the plurality of working chambers into which the air-fuel mixture is supplied. The intake passageway further includes valve means for controlling the effective cross sectional area of the opening portion of the intake passageway.
Abstract:
A rotary internal combustion engine of the multi-rotor type having a plurality of rotor chambers including exhaust chambers provided with exhaust ports respectively. The rotary internal combustion engine has an exhaust system constituted by exhaust passageways formed to be congregated in one portion of a rotor housing and communicating with the exhaust ports leading from the respective rotor exhaust chambers, and at least one exhaust manifold connected at one portion of the rotor housing to the exhaust passageways.
Abstract:
TO INCREASE THE WEAR RESISTANCE OF A ROTARY PISTON ENEGINE CASING ENVELOPE THE INNER SURFACE OF THE ENVELOPE IS COATED BY A KEYING FILM AND THEN A RESISTANT SUB-LAYER OF AN ALLOY OF STEEL AND NICKEL ALUMINIDES, THEN BY A THIN WEAR-RESISTANT LAYER OF NICKEL OR COBALT. THE SUB-LAYER IS FORMED BY FLAME-SPRAYING SIMULTANEOUSLY 90% TO 70% BY VOLUME CARBON STEEL WITH 10% TO 30% OF A MIXUTRE OF EQUAL PARTS OF NICKEL AND ALUMINIUM POWDERS.
Abstract:
A rotary piston internal combustion engine having a three or more apexed rotary piston moving in planetary motion within a casing formed by a center wall having a trochoidal inner peripheral surface and end walls disposed at both sides of the center wall and intake and exhaust passages provided in the end wall and/or center wall includes a conduit communicating between the intake and exhaust passages. The conduit is disposed in the neighborhood of the engine coolant jacket within the casing and a control valve opening and closing in response to the operating states of the engine is disposed in the conduit within the casing and the recycling exhaust gas and control valve are cooled by the engine coolant.
