Engine with rotary cylinder block - has cylinders in successive positions round axis of rotation

摘要

The IC engine has two or more pistons (6) working in cylinders (2) and with protruding piston rods (10). The cylinders form a block (3) rotating on a first axis (4), extending radially from it. Roller components (15) on the piston rod ends work in a circular guide (17) centred on a second axis (M) parallel to the first. The distance between the axes is equal to half the piston stroke. The cylinders are in successive positions round the first axis. They can comprise one or more each working and auxiliary cylinders. USE/ADVANTAGE - Simple, efficient, and quiet running rotary engine.
