    摘要: An engine which employs a cam follower mechanism to reduce wear and reduce the size of an assembled engine. The cam follower mechanism utilizes guide rails located to reduce side thrust on the valve stem. The engine employs a high speed quill shaft to synchronize independent cam shafts existing in each of a plurality of interconnected engines. The engine is assembled using a single size fastener to provide a uniform stress gradient within the engine. The engines are interconnected utilizing O-ring seals. The engine provides a piston crown utilizing a connecting rod directly connected to the bottom surface of the piston crown. The piston crown is stabilized along the longitudinal cylinder axis by a rail guide. Connecting rods are provided which require less than one hundred eighty degrees (180.degree.) circumference of a crankshaft pin for support so that a plurality of connecting rods can be associated with a single crankshaft pin. A tabbed bearing fits under the plurality of connecting rods to provide lubrication between the connecting rods and the crankshaft pin. Connecting rods are held to the crankshaft pin by a circular retaining ring. The engine provides a separate cylinder head and cylinder which are attached via a circular deformable retaining band to form a metal to metal seal. The engine provides an independent lubrication system in each engine. Coolant or lubricant is provided to each engine in parallel so that the temperature of the coolant entering each engine is the same. A large diameter modular crankshaft is provided.

    摘要: A balanced compound, regenerative cycle, external heat source engine is mad by using mechanically double acting rigidly affixed and self-aligned reciprocating opposed piston and cylinder structure in which substantially all of the energy created during reciprocating motion is converted or translated into rotational motion by the action of a scotch yoke type, transfer lubricated, sliding/roller bearing mechanism which acts on a single and centrally located crankshaft which is contained in a telescopic crankcase structure. A balanced compound engine structure may be constructed so that two or more subsystems are housed in one or more modules. Two or more power modules may then be coupled together and an engine power and speed control may be attained by varying the relative phase angle of the couple.

    摘要: An internal combustion engine comprising an engine block including a plurality of parallel, spaced apart cylinder modules, each module having a cylinder bore and a pair of pistons in each bore which are simultaneously movable in opposite directions and a rotatable shaft parallel to the cylinder modules. A wobbler member connected to and rotatable with the shaft means, has a pair of end portions connected by a central portion, each end portion having a centerline forming an angle with the rotatable shaft and wobbler end portion. A pair of bearing members are provided within each spider assembly and located at opposite ends of each wobbler end portion, each having a general frustro-conical annular shape with relieved areas in its outer surface to provide reduced bearing contact areas and bearing friction. A connecting rod for each piston is fixed at its outer end to the spider assembly and is connected at its inner end to a piston so as to provide both rotational as well as linear side movement of the connecting rod inner end within the piston. A lubrication system supplies liquid lubricant under pressure to both the bearings and the inner ends of said pistons.

    摘要: The Uniflow Sterling engine consists of multiple power and displacer sections which are arranged in in-line form. The inline arrangement allows for the ganging of the piston sets so that a simple modular, easily-serviced engine is produced. Hot and cold conduction rods within the thermal zones aid in transferring heat within the displacer sections. Alternating one-way gas flow bores within the displacer blocks provide a uniflow gas flow loop for improved thermal effectiveness. A frictional heating system is advocated as a sustaining heating means, which utilizes an electric motor and battery system to drive a friction drum against replaceable heat transfer elements to produce sufficient heat energy for the hot displacer zone.
