<p>This invention describes the configuration, construction, working principle and possible applications for PROHPI internal combustion engines. This new type of engines works by means of one or more both rotating and reciprocating cylindrical pistons within cylinders with the following characteristics:
—� Piston top and cylinder head have matching wavy (e.g. sine wave alike) surfaces;
—� By rotation and reciprocation, matching wave forms form alternating compressing and expanding chambers;
—� During maximum compression, compressed air or air - fuel mixture is pressed through channel like connections between compressing chambers and combustion and expansion chambers;
—� Fuel can be injected and / or ignited just before or within such channels;
—� PROHPI engines can be configured for two stroke or for four stroke operation;
—� PROHPI engines can be configured for Otto, Diesel or direct injection spark ignition operation; The PROHPI engine can be applied for stationary and non-stationary power units, e.g. to drive generators, compressors or pumps, pile or driving sheet drivers and aviation, automotive, train, nautical or other mobile primary drive lines and/or range extenders.</p> |
