An apparatus for converting linear reciprocal motion to rotary motion, comprising a reciprocating component and a reciprocating rod capable of linear reciprocal motion in unison, internal gear racks, a segmented gear, and transfer plates is provided. The internal gear racks are disposed on opposing internal sides of the reciprocating rod for inducing rotary motion in the segmented gear by linear reciprocal motion of the reciprocating rod. The segmented gear, disposed within a space defined between the opposing internal sides of the reciprocating rod and rigidly connected to a power shaft, alternately meshes with the internal gear racks to transmit rotary motion to the power shaft. The transfer plates, coaxially disposed on the segmented gear's centric axis, comprise profiled grooves for controlling transition of the reciprocating rod by contacting the reciprocating rod, when the reciprocating component is at a top dead center and a bottom dead center within an engine housing. |
