摘要

A piston engine designed as a motor with a star configuration has a rotary shaft arranged in the motor housing, upon which pistons linked to a piston rod are radially movable. An expanding gaseous fluid exerts a pressure on the pistons that are arranged each in a working chamber located in the motor housing. The successive working chambers and pistons generally have a wedge-shaped cross-section, and the number of working chambers and pistons is variable. The pistons are radially movable in the rotor, in the direction of rotation, and operationally coupled to a forced control. The object of this invention is to obtain a specific power as high as possible with a compact design and a reduced engine weight. Among many others, its most remarkable characteristic is the extremely high motor torque that results from this motor system. With this engine an engine torque that is 48 times higher than that of comparable 4-stroke internal combustion engines is obtained, thanks to the 24-fold reduction of the driving engine speed caused by the system and to the 2-stroke system. During each rotation of the rotor shaft 24 x 24 = 576 working cycles per engine disk are obtained. A comparable 20 cylinders 4-stroke reciprocating piston engine has only 10 working cycles during each rotation of the crankshaft.
