    摘要: The instant invention includes systems for and methods of maximizing efficiencies in an internal combustion engine while minimizing costs and weight for the same and while also minimizing maintenance requirements for the same. Such systems include a compression assembly for compressing fluid to a desired pressure for combustion (such as above 220 psi) and a combustion assembly configured to receive at least a portion of the compressed volume of air for each power stroke. In this way, the power stroke of the engine is independent of the compression stroke of the engine, thereby eliminating or otherwise minimizing transitional losses associated with the same.

The at least one planet wheel may be configured to engage the inner cylindrical surface of the cylindrical compartment and include at least one indentation configured to be received by the at least one lobe when the at least one planet wheel rotates along the inner cylindrical surface. Air intake and compression as well as combustion and exhaust may be performed within the same or different compartments of the at least one cylindrical compartment.

    摘要: A work machine that can discharge water collected inside a casing to the outside, reduce leakage of noise, and reduce entry of foreign matter from outside. The work machine includes a bottom portion cover forming a portion of a casing, and the bottom portion cover includes: at least two ribs and a bead (strengthening structure portions) that are formed substantially perpendicular to a bottom surface of the bottom portion cover; and a drain hole located in a connecting portion connecting the bottom surface of the bottom portion cover and a water-discharging rib among the at least two ribs. An upper portion of the water-discharging rib is located over the drain hole.

    摘要: A rotary combustion engine, such as a Wankel engine has a rotor with a rotor pocket for receiving air-fuel mixture that is combusted therein to propel the rotor within the housing. Rotor air channels extend from an inlet that is configured in the compression chamber to an outlet configured in the rotor pocket to deliver compressed air-fuel mixture to said rotor pocket. The rotor air channels have an open portion, open on the face of the rotor and a closed portion extending as a conduit into the rotor to the rotor pocket. Fuel may be delivered to the rotor air channel from a rotor-gear fuel conduit that receives fuel from the fixed gear or a side-wall fuel conduit that receives fuel from a housing side-wall injector through a side-wall fuel transfer port. Rotor air channels may be configured to direct air-fuel streams to intercept one another to enhance combustion.

    摘要: A rotary engine includes a shroud surrounding a rotor. The rotor carries a combustion chamber spaced from an axis of rotation of the rotor. A pressure activated valve is located between the combustion chamber and obliquely arranged exhaust nozzles. An ECU controls the combustion cycle of the engine based on a signal from a pressure sensor in the combustion chamber. The electronic control responds to the pressure signal from the pressure sensor to open a fuel control valve, to fire a spark plug and cause combustion of the fuel within the combustion chamber, and to thereafter open an air control valve to purge the combustion chamber of exhaust gasses.

    摘要: The Rotary Roller Motor (RRM) is a four cycle rotary internal combustion engine that uniquely overcomes many of the drawbacks of other rotary type engines, by having the Rotor ‘roll’ around the inside of the engine block, rather than scraping it. This is accomplished with a two part rotor. The inner part of the rotor is composed of a Rotor Shaft (RS-12) with an Offset Circular Lobe (OCL-11) rigidly attached to it. The Outer Rotor (OR-9) fits symmetrically around the Offset Circular Lobe, with Inter Rotor Bearings (IRB-10) between the two to allow free movement. The four cycles are separated by two barriers; the Compression/Power Barrier (CPB-13), and the Exhaust/Intake Barrier (EIB-6). Compression is controlled by two non-reversing barriers, the Non-reversing Compression Barrier (NCB-3) and the Compression Hold Barrier (CHB-14), on either side of the Combustion Chamber (CC-2).

    摘要: An internal combustion engine comprises a plurality of engine units (50A-50C), each having a working space (11), in which two rotary pistons (20, 30) are arranged so as mesh with each other and thereby divide the working space (11) into an inflow region (12) and an outflow region (13). Each engine unit comprises a closable inlet opening (62A-62C) to the inflow region (12) and a closable exhaust gas outlet opening (64A-64C). The internal combustion engine further comprises a feed-line pipe (60) to the inlet openings (62A-62C) and an exhaust gas collection pipe (66) connected to the exhaust gas outlet openings (64A-64C), so that the engine units (50A-50C) are connected in parallel with each other. The internal combustion engine further comprises exhaust gas lines (63A, 63B) which connect the engine units (50A, 50B) with each other in series. In dependence upon a desired power output, a control device (70) operates some of the engine units (50B, 50C) either as internal combustion engines, wherein the respective inlet opening (62B-62C) is opened, or as expansion engines, wherein respective inlet opening (62B-62C) remains closed and the respective rotary pistons (20, 30) are instead driven by exhaust gas flowing in via the respective exhaust gas line (63A, 63B).
