<p>A transfer mechanism for converting reciprocating motion to rotary motion in a reciprocating-piston type machine or engine comprises a motion conversion assembly (12) having a rotor (19) with a cam track groove (20) connected by a cam follower (17) to a piston rod (13) which joins pistons (3, 3A) inside cylinders (2, 2A) of the engine. In operation the reciprocating motion of the piston rod (13) causes the cam follower (17) to move along the cam groove (20) to drive the rotor (19) and hence the output shaft (16).</p> |
