Abstract: A flame ejector device for mounting in the spark plug aperture of an internal combustion engine whereby an inner end of the device is within the combustion chamber, the device being configured to receive a fuel-air mixture charge on the compression stroke of the piston and wherein the charge is ignited by a conventional spark plug mounted on the device, a unique arrangement and orientation of flame ejector nozzles on the inner end of the device for ejecting flame fronts toward predetermined areas within the combustion chamber to maximize fuel burning, to avoid engine knocking, and to prevent direct impingement of flame on metal portions contiguous the chamber which are susceptible to burning or heat damage.

Abstract: A piston/cylinder type engine having increased horsepower and torque wherein the basic components of the engine are constructed and arranged as a standard production single cylinder, “in-line” or “V” engine, but wherein one or more cylinders are bored at an angle of from about 0.025° up to about 15° around the axis of the wrist pin affixing the piston to a connecting rod at TDC, to thereby rotate the bore axis laterally of the crankshaft axis while retaining conventional intersection of the crankshaft axis with the wrist pin axis.

Abstract: A device for applying torque to a rotatable workpiece. The device is particularly constructed to loosen or tighten nuts or bolts which are difficult to turn due to rust, corrosion or the like. The device multiplies force (torque) that is applied to the handle of the device to a workpiece to be rotated thereby enabling a person to apply a relatively light force to the device and deliver a multiple of the force applied to the rotatable workpiece. The device of the invention is constructed so that it may be partially disassembled and folded to be conveniently stored until needed.
