Abstract: A stroke control assembly for an engine. The assembly is configured to transfer power from a rectilinear moving piston by way of an interaction between a control plate and a flywheel of the assembly. The control plate is configured to phase shift or overrun the flywheel at predetermined locations of interface between a rectilinear moving piston and the control plate. In this manner, significant forces that might otherwise be applied to the control plate, may be avoided, following these predetermined locations. The control plate may also allow a firm engagement of a mechanical rectifier (one way clutch) while tracking a substantially constant velocity piston device for about 240° of rotation thereof to optimally enhance collection of power from the rectilinear moving piston.

Abstract: An engine assembly including a piston for rectilinear reciprocation within a cylinder. Rectilinear reciprocation of the piston allows for a sealing off of a fuel chamber such that fuel may be maintained and delivered to a combustion chamber independent of any lubrication oil to be employed at the interface of the piston and an inner wall of the cylinder. Additionally, the piston may be considered self-lubricating or monolithic in nature due to the presence of passageways for transferring engine fluids therethrough.
