Abstract: A rotary reciprocating internal combustion engine is disclosed and includes a rotor with a set of four pistons driving respective spaced apart cranks. Each of the ends of the rotating cranks extends through a bearing in support plates on the rotor and includes a crank gear meshing with the teeth of a larger ring gear. The larger ring gear is fixed on the housing of the engine and is axially aligned with the rotor. The crank gears drive the rotor which in turn is fixed to and drives a power take off shaft. As the rotor is driven in the housing, fuel is supplied to the cylinders and combustion gasses are exhausted through openings formed in the housing. A pair of fuel intake ports, exhaust ports and spark plugs are provided for the four cylinders and pistons such that eight piston strokes are provided for each revolution of the power take off shaft.

Abstract: The present hood glare shield for blocking sun or headlight glare reflecting from the hood of a vehicle includes a panel slidable transversely in a resilient base affixed to the dashboard of the vehicle. The base includes a pair of resilient guides for readily inserting the panel in the base such as when the vehicle is suddenly turned into the sun or when the bright high beam headlights of an oncoming vehicle are ungraciously switched on. The base further includes a pair of resilient upright clamps for maintaining the panel in an upright position regardless of the angle at which the panel is inserted into the base.
