  • Publication number: 20250179956
    Abstract: A rotary engine, parts thereof, and methods associated therewith is provided. The engine is modular and adjustable to accommodate a variety of requirements and preferences. The system includes a combustion assembly having a housing and a power rotor positioned therein. The power rotor rotates in a first direction from the beginning of each combustion process through the end of each exhaust process. The system also includes a compression assembly linked to the combustion assembly such that the compression rotor rotates in the first direction from the beginning of each intake process through the end of each compression process. A tank assembly in fluid communication with the compression assembly and the combustion assembly provides stability to the system while eliminating or otherwise reducing transitional loses.

  • Patent number: 12270331
    Abstract: The instant invention includes systems for and methods of maximizing efficiencies in an internal combustion engine while minimizing costs and weight for the same and while also minimizing maintenance requirements for the same. Such systems include a compression assembly for compressing fluid to a desired pressure for combustion (such as above 220 psi) and a combustion assembly configured to receive at least a portion of the compressed volume of air for each power stroke. In this way, the power stroke of the engine is independent of the compression stroke of the engine, thereby eliminating or otherwise minimizing transitional losses associated with the same.
