| 摘要 |
A motor according to the invention includes a combustion chamber; a central rotor disposed within the combustion chamber; a shaft, which engages the rotor longitudinally and extends from the combustion chamber in opposite directions; and a proximal rotor and a distal rotor, which are coupled to the shaft in symmetrically opposite positions and have passages defined thereon to receive at least some of the exhaust gas exiting the combustion chamber and impart a vortical motion to that exhaust gas. After exiting the proximal and distal rotors, the exhaust gas is directed to an interspace between the shaft and a housing of the motor and forms pneumatic bearings between the shaft and the housing, which maintain the shaft in a frictionless suspended position during operation of the motor. In one embodiment, some of the exhaust gas energizes batteries disposed around the motor. |
