  • Patent number: 5711283
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine system including an engine, timer/distributor device and a compliant electromagnetic device is disclosed. The engine may have one or more cylinders and includes an anode positioned above a cathodic piston whereby the anode delivers high intense short bursts of electrical energy through the combustion chamber and ignites fuel delivered by an injector. Each engine cylinder is connected to a distributor which sequences and delivers the high energy impulses from the compliant electromagnetic device to an individual cylinder when the piston is at or near top dead center. The compliant electromagnetic device includes an inductor, a power source and a field of material, i.e., the air/fuel mixture within the combustion chamber. The summed equivalence of the electromagnetic fields within the combustion chamber at any instant in time controls the intensity of the pulses and the quantity of pulses that are discharged by the anode.
