Abstract:
A Revolving piston rotary annular and toroid cylinder rotary valve continuous flow and combustion expansible chamber devices, compressor and engine machine system with an outer annular cylinder housing assembly having a central axis, having one or a plurality of balanced pistons with means for attachment to a rotor and radiating through the outer rotor assembly to contact or come within close tolerance of the interior surface of the outer housing at the other extreme of the pistons, whereby, a plurality of relatively air tight compartments are formed between the interior surface of the outer housing, the outer surface of the rotor assembly and the piston or plurality of pistons with the volume of said compartment varying as a function of the rotative position of the inner cylinder and rotor assembly in relation to the isolating valve. At least one isolating valve conformably shaped and associated with a respective piston and said hollow cylinder housing pivotally connected at one end to said housing upstream and before said intake port, another end of said isolating valve being in rotary contact with said conformably shaped outer peripheral surface of said associated piston and said rotor assembly following said conformably shaped surface The rotary device can be used as a compressor having an inlet for receiving any fluid and an outlet for providing compressed fluid such as air etc. The rotary device can also have an inlet for receiving working fluid and exhaust port for venting working fluid a combustor for burning combustible fluids. The combustor can also heat an expansion gas or fluid which is introduced or mixed within the combustor simultaneously.
Abstract:
A rotary engine casing having at least one end wall of an internal cavity for a rotor including a seal-engaging plate sealingly engaging the peripheral wall to partially seal the internal cavity and a member mounted adjacent the seal-engaging plate outside of the internal cavity. The member and seal-engaging plate having abutting mating surfaces which cooperate to define between them at least one fluid cavity communicating with a source of liquid coolant. When the casing includes a plurality of rotor housings, the end wall may be between rotor housings. A method of manufacturing a rotary engine casing is also discussed.
Abstract:
A rotary engine (10, 510) with improved cooling, and a MMC material for a rotary engine are provided. The rotary engine (10, 510), comprises a rotor (20, 520) having an interior and an exterior divided by a plurality of rotor faces (68, 568), a rotor chamber housing assembly (14, 514) surrounding the rotor exterior, and a side plate (16, 516) coupled to the rotor chamber housing assembly (14, 514). The side plate (16, 516) comprises a charge air inlet (34, 514) port arranged to direct charge air to the interior of the rotor (20, 520) and a charge air exit port (48, 548). The charge air exit port (48, 548) is intermittently exposable by the rotor faces( 68, 568) to selectively exhaust charge air from the rotor interior directly to the chamber housing assembly (14, 514), for combustion, depending on the rotational position of the rotor (20, 520).
Abstract:
A rotary machine which comprises: a machine casing (25); a drive shaft mounted for rotation within the said casing; an eccentric (15) attached to the drive shaft and parallel to the axis of rotation of the drive shaft (10); a rotor (20), mounted for rotation on the said eccentric constrained to rotate in the same direction as the drive shaft performing one revolution to three revolutions of the drive shaft; a housing with a profile (28) constructed from a diametrically divided circle in which the two halves are displaced apart perpendicular to the line of division and the ends joined, tangentially, by two equal parallel lines to form a smooth closed curve; so that in operation the path traced by a point attached to the said rotor closely approximates to the housing profile.
