  • Patent number: 7866296
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine having at least one working chamber limited by a piston and means for fuel injection, wherein said fuel injection means are arranged in a separate ignition chamber communicating with said working chamber, and means for tuning said ignition chamber and fuel injected by said fuel injection means such that substantially only burnt, expanding combustion gas enters the working chamber.

  • Patent number: 7117840
    Abstract: A rotary piston machine with a housing forming a prismatic cavity with a cavity wall. The cross section of the prismatic cavity is a cavity oval. A rotary piston is guided for rotary movement in the cavity. The rotary piston moves in consecutive intervals of motion from one blocking position to an adjacent end position. The rotary piston, during the consecutive intervals of motion rotates, in the same rotational direction, alternatingly about one of two different axes. A transmission arrangement transmits the rotary motion about two axes. When the rotary piston reaches a blocking position, there is an associated larger diameter cavity circular arc, in which the larger diameter piston circular arc was slidingly guided during the preceding interval of motion.

  • Patent number: 6983729
    Abstract: A rotary piston machine having a housing defining a prismatic chamber the cross section of which forms an oval of odd order. A rotary piston is guided in the chamber and, in each position, subdivides the chamber into two working chambers. Piston-fixed instantaneous axes of rotation of the rotary piston are defined in a center plane. The rotary piston, in each interval of movement, is rotating with one of opposite nappe sections in an inner wall section about an associated instantaneous axis of rotation and is sliding with the opposite nappe section along the opposite second inner wall section of the chamber and is reaching a stop position there.

  • Publication number: 20050145213
    Abstract: An electric power generator assembly comprises a rotary piston engine having a housing, which defines a chamber. A rotary piston having an oval contour is rotatably guided in this chamber. A variable volume working chambers are defined between the wall of the chamber and the rotary piston. The rotary piston, during its rotary movement, is consecutively rotatable about at least two different axes of rotation.

  • Patent number: 6910397
    Abstract: The axis of a gear is to follow a trajectory having a salient point. To this end, the gear rolls along two stationary toothed racks. A change-over toothing is provided between these two toothed racks. This change-over toothing extends non-smoothly with respect to the toothed racks. Such change-over toothing permits the gear to roll, without jamming, from one of the toothed racks to the other one, with its axis following a trajectory having a salient point.

  • Publication number: 20040244762
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary piston machine. A housing defines a prismatic chamber the cross section of which forms an oval of odd order, which is alternatingly composed of circular arcs having a first relatively small radius of curvature and circular arcs having a second, relatively large radius of curvature, which arcs change into each other continuously and differentiably. Corresponding first and second cylindrical inner wall sections are formed. A rotary piston is guided in the chamber, the cross section of the rotary piston forming an oval the order of which is one less than the order of the chamber. Opposite cylindrical nappe sections are formed at the rotary piston, of which, in each position, a respective one is rotatable in a cylindrical inner wall section of equal radius of curvature and the respective other one engages an opposite inner wall section. The rotary piston, in each position, subdivides the chamber into two working chambers.
