Abstract

Rotary engine for the direct conversion of heat energy into rotational energy, characterised in that a fuel-air mixture is drawn in through an inlet valve (6) into a circular, fixed housing (1) and thus enclosed in an evacuated chamber formed from eccentric shaft (2) and partition walls (3), and housing wall (1), ignition of the mixture occurring in a minimal volume - in a chamber configuration (I) - after a 180 degree rotation by contracted chamber and gas volume. After a 360 degree rotation an exhaust valve (4) opens and allows the major proportion of the old gases to escape at maximum gas volume. After a 540 degree rotation of the chamber, the old gases still contained in this are compressed and thereby expelled to the outside of the combustion chamber through a second exhaust valve (5) arranged offset in relation to the first. After a 720 degree rotation a vacuum can be built up by expansion of the chamber volume and fresh gas imploded into this again by opening of the inlet valve (6). The number of partition walls (3) must be an odd number greater than one. In the case of five partition walls therefore five fuel explosions occur for two revolutions of the eccentric shaft (2). <IMAGE>

Circular engine

The invention relates to a method for converting thermal energy into mechanical kinetic energy.

The most famous process like the Otto or reciprocating engine has the disadvantage, that only from a back and forth movement of a piston in a cylinder, via a connecting rod and a flywheel a circular motion can be generated.

The piston has to be accelerated and decelerated again and again which leads to a reduction in efficiency. The invention is therefore based on the object of a machine for converting thermal energy into mechanical kinetic energy to represent, which executes the four strokes of a four-stroke engine with one complete revolution in each chamber and with ignition the expansion of the combustion gases immediately converts into a rotational movement, which is the superposition of the power output with the compression in another chamber meant.

In the accompanying drawing is an example of the Invention shown and shows a plan view of the circular motor.

Solution;

The object is achieved according to the invention in that a fuel-air mixture is sucked through an inlet valve (6) into a circular, fixed housing (i) and thus in one of the eccentric axis (2) and partition walls (3) 9 and the housing wall ( i) the evacuated chamber formed is enclosed, whereby after a 180 degree rotation to the contracted chamber and gas volume the ignition of the mixture "takes place at minimum volume - in chamber _{configuration (1) - 9} " or ^ .a the center axis ( 2) experiences an impulse and as it expands a gas volume starts rotating clockwise (reverse to the drawing) "After a 360 degree rotation, an outlet valve (4) opens and allows the main part of the older gases to escape at maximum gas volume. According to odnnr MO (rrrul-Draining The waste gases still contained in the cidosur were then compressed and pushed out through a second offset valve (5) on the outside of the chamber
