Definitions
- thermodinamic cycle with four transformations (phases or strokes):
- the Otto and Diesel cycles are the most employed in reciprocating engines: the Otto cycle is employed also in Wankel rotary engine.
- a basic mechanism for carrying out mechanical power from four- phase thermodinamic cycle in reciprocating motors is a linear cylindrical chamber with variable volume (the cylinder), where a piston is propelled by the expansion of the fluid during the power phase :the linear motion is transformed in rotation by means of crankshaft and connecting rods. Because each phase is realized in one linear stroke of the piston(up and down) corresponding to an half revolution of the shaft, a complete four- phase cycle is accomplished in two revolutions.
- the major drawbacks in the four-phase reciprocating motors are: -uncompleted expansion of the fluid, because the largest expansion volume is equal to the intaked volume.
- the Wankel is an Otto cycle motor, with the handicap already mentioned about the expansion (power) phase; -very small crank in the torque transmitted by the eccentric shaft to the rolling one: so it is necessary to generate one important mechanical force to achieve the desired value of the torque;
- the invention permits the realization of a complete four- phase cycle in one revolution, by means of a very simple mechanical structure.
- the basic mechanism is made up of one air compressor and one internal combustion motor( both rotary and equipped with vanes), strictly integrated so that they have the same statoric frame and the same rotor.
- the schematic drawings that give an illustration of the mechanical structure are:
- Fig-1 is a front-view
- Fig.2 is a cross-section of the common stator: on the superior side is placed a pair of vanes (linked to the stator) switchable between two positions - “open “ and “closed " - but normally "closed”.
- Fig.3 is a front-view
- Fig.4 is a cross-section, of the common rotor, wich has a pair of fixed vanes.
- Fig.5 is a perspective-view of stator and rotor assembled.
- the parts pointed out are: 1 -switchable vanes for motor and compressor; 2-side-wall of cilindrical annular chamber of the motor; 3-separating wall between motor and compressor; 4-cross-section of cylindrical annular chamber of the motor; 5-cross-section of cylindrical annular chamber of the compressor; 6-pair of vanes fixed to the rotor; 7-slot for housing the separating wall between motor and compressor; 8-disk of the rotor; 9-shaft of the system; 10-rotoric surface of annular chambers.
- Chamber 1 is delimited by the statoric vane in closed position, and the rotoric vane; Chamber 2 is delimited by the rotoric vane, and the statoric vane in closed position.
- the motor is completed by the addition of these devices ( parts):
- each chamber is always assigned to the same phase: the four phases are simultaneously in evolution in the system : a settled volume of fluid evolves along the phases passing from one chamber to the successive one: at the end of each revolution, one settled intaked volume completes its cycle.
- the sequence of "operating state for each device in the motor” is : angle of switching valve of injector spark exhaust rotoric statoric immission plug port awe vane air compress.
- A5 rotary vane passing through rotary vane passing through The sequence of "operating state of devices of the compressor” is: angle of switching intake valve for emission rotary vane statoric vane port air compressed
- the volumetric efficiency of this motor is mainly determined by the loss of fluid leaving the system.
- the intermediate path is made up of a series of thin annular labyrints with decreasing diameters.who has the effect of lengthening the path and dropping the fluid pressure.
- the leaks are forced to exit through gap-rings around the shaft, where the opening is minimal, and the speed is also minimal after the drop of pressure caused by the labyrinths. Filling the path with lube oil, the speed of the leaks is further decreased because of its specific weight and viscosity: finally.the loss of fluid is small.
- Leaks between two complementary chambers are cut off by compression rings around the vanes , similar to that of pistons.
- thermodinamic efficiency because the expansion (power) phase utilizes all the pression and power available in the fluid.
- the expansion volume is nearly two-fold the volume of intaked air.
- the illustrated idea permits the realisation of more comlete cycles in the same revolution.
- By increasing the rotation diameter, and the length of the related circumference it is possible to use three (for example) equal arcs in order to obtain complete cycles under different patterns.
- the first pattern consists in distributing three equidistant boxes for vanes (and complementary devices), along the stator; the rotor has only one fixed vane.This system generates three complete and consecutive cycles in one revolution.
- the second pattern consists in distributing three equidistant boxes for vanes, along the stator: the rotor has three equidistant fixed vanes. This system generates three complete and contemporaneous cycles in one third of revolution, or nine cycles in one revolution.
- the third pattern consists in a stator with one box for vanes, but the rotor has three equidistant vanes.
- This system generates three complete and consecutive cycles in one revolution (similar to the Wankel engine).
- Another way to obtain more powered motors consists in the assembling of more basic units on the same shaft, with their rotors mounted at different angles from one another.
- Fig.1 Main components of stator.front view.
- Fig.9-Cross-section AA of the motor side of the single box are illustrated the position of statoric vane.the exhaust port.the position of the valve for immition of compressed air.the positions of injector and spark plug.
- Fig.10-Cross section BB of the compressor side of the single box are illustrated the position of statoric vane.the position of the valve for the emission of compressed air.the intake port.
- Fig.11 Cross-section of the system, referred to the motor side. In this drawing is illustrated the path of the leaks, with labyrints: it is also visible a zoom of one of the junctions between rotor and stator, with the incapsuleted round spring washers.
- Fig.12- Pressure-Volume diagram of the fluid in a complete cycle Lenoir- Cler each of the four portion of the diagram is equivalent to one phase of the cycle. In particular:
- the segment AB is equivalent to the intake (at constant pressure):-the line BC is equivalent to the compression (at variable pressure and volume): - the segment Ca is equivalent to the emission (at constant pressure) of compressed air and contemporary immission in the tank interfacing the motor: -the segment aC is equivalent to the tacking (at constant pressure) of compressed air from the interfacing tank, and contemporary immission in the motor: -the segment CE is equivalent to the explosion (at constant volume): ⁇ the line ED is equivalent to the combustion and expansion (at pressure and volume variable):-the segment DA is equivalent to the exhaust (at constant pressure).
- the applicability of this invention is very large, especially in small powered basic unit (a complete cycle in one revolution). It is easy to couple these engines with other portable rotating machines for many various uses ; for example, motor compressors, motorpumps and motor generators of electricity.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un moteur à combustion rotatif possédant un cycle complet en quatre phases en une révolution et présentant une structure mécanique très simple. Ce système présente quatre chambres cylindriques annulaires dont le volume est variable en fonction de la rotation du rotor. Ces quatre chambres sont obtenues par intégration totale d'un compresseur et d'un moteur rotatifs et comportant des aubes; une cloison de séparation sépare la partie moteur de la partie compresseur. Chacune de ces deux parties est encore divisée en deux chambres possédant un volume variable, au moyen d'une aube commutable de type stator (normalement fermée) et une d'une aube fixe de type rotor. La même phase est continuellement affectée à chaque chambre; les quatre phases évoluent simultanément dans le système; un volume déterminé de liquide se déplace au cours de ces phases et passe d'une chambre à la chambre suivante; à la fin de chaque révolution, un volume déterminé termine son cycle. Si le volume de la chambre d'expansion du moteur est égal au volume de la chambre d'admission du compresseur, le système génère des cycles Otto, si ce premier volume est plus important, les cycles générés sont du type Lenoir et l'utilisation de puissance du système est meilleure. Il est possible de réaliser davantage de cycles complets en une révolution.
