  • Patent number: 7434563
    Abstract: The rotary engine includes a cylinder body having a cylinder chamber, an intake port, an exhaust port, and a spark plug, and a rotor which is received in the cylinder chamber to eccentrically rotate while coming into contact at seal faces thereof with an inner circumferential contact wall of the cylinder chamber to thereby implement intake, compression, expansion, and exhaust strokes. The rotor has an elliptical outer contour, and the inner circumferential contact wall of the cylinder chamber coincides with a specific curve, which is described by opposite apexes of the elliptical rotor in a direction of a major axis, when the rotor eccentrically rotates. The intake port and exhaust port are provided with opening/closing valves, respectively. Sealing performance between the cylinder chamber and the rotor may achieve an enhancement in the efficiency of fuel combustion and engine output and prevent waste of fuel.

  • Patent number: 6172492
    Abstract: A dual mode converter is provided that may be operated as a variable-frequency, naturally-commutated controller in a Zero-Voltage-Switching mode and as a fixed-off-time controller in a Fixed-Off-Time mode. The converter includes four functional elements. A reference and biases element generates voltage references and biases utilized to determine various signal states. A Timing element generates a fixed off time signal and a voltage ramp signal utilized to create the dual modes of operation. A Catastrophic-Event element detects events that cause the converter output be inhibited and the controller to be restarted. A Mode Detection and Pulse Width Modulation element determines the mode of operation for the converter based on signal inputs from the other functional elements and modulates the output accordingly. In a primary mode, the controller utilizes variable frequency operation to deliver primary power. In a standby mode, the controller utilizes fixed frequency operation to provide low power (less than 5W).
