Abstract: A blade-type fluid transmission device includes a rotor eccentrically located in the room of a stator and the outer periphery of the rotor is tangent to the inner periphery of the room. At least one blade is pivotably connected to stator and movably inserted in at least one slot of the rotor. The distal end of the at least one blade is in contact with the inner periphery of the room so as to form a space for receiving fluid between the outer periphery of the rotor and the inner periphery of the room. The contact between the at least one blade and the inner periphery of the room increases the efficiency for transmitting fluid which enters into the stator from an inlet and leaves from the stator from an outlet.

Abstract: A rotary engine has a rotor that has rockers pivoting in chambers. As each rocker pivots, it rotates an outer crankshaft. Each outer crankshaft has a spur gear that engages a stationary ring gear. Spur gear rotation causes the gears and the outer crankshafts to revolve around the ring gear. This cause the rotor to rotate. As the rotor rotates, successive chambers are positioned at the intake, compression, ignition, and exhaust positions. Igniting the fuel in the ignition position pushes the rocker inward to rotate the outer crankshaft associated with that rocker to cause the rotor to rotate.

Abstract: A vane machine for expansion or compression of gases, air, engine exhaust, vapors or a mixture thereof, includes a housing with a cylindrical space having inlet and outlet ports, a shaft offset in parallel or eccentric relative to a central housing axis and first and second circular discs on the shaft mutually offset in parallel. Slides are guided by the circular discs and displaceable in direction of an inner housing wall. Vane cells are formed by two neighboring slides and an adjoining region of the wall and volumes of the vane cells in vicinity of the inlet and outlet ports differ. To obtain reliability and efficiency, each circular disc has a plurality of circular arcuate slots, each slide can have a circular arc shape on an end facing the housing, and the circular arcuate part of each slide moves into circular arcuate slots of first and second circular discs.

Abstract: A variable displacement pump includes a pump structural member configured to change volumes of a plurality of working chambers by rotation of a rotor, so as to introduce oil through an inlet port into the working chambers and to discharge the oil through a discharge port, and further configured to oscillate a cam ring by a discharge pressure introduced into a control oil chamber. A first coil spring is provided to force the cam ring in a direction for increasing of a rate of change of the working-chamber volume. A second coil spring is provided to force the cam ring in a direction for decreasing of the rate of change of the working-chamber volume. The first and second coil springs are laid out on both sides of an arm portion of the cam ring in a manner so as to be opposed to each other.

Abstract: A motor for converting fluid pressure to rotational motivation, and pump for moving fluid, is provided. The motor/pump includes a drum provided within a cylindrical cavity defined by a housing. Vane assemblies are provided which extend through the inner drum, and are actuated to extend and retract through their operable coupling to a cam provided within the inner drum. As the inner drum rotates, the vanes extend and retract, alternately increasing and decreasing their drag coefficient, causing pressurized fluid admitted into the interior to drive the vanes and inner drum in a single direction. Alternatively, a power source may be coupled to the motor to drive the motor, thereby causing it to act as a pump for moving fluid from one location to another.

Abstract: The engine includes a cylindrical rotor, set up in the interior of a stator, limited by two flat surfaces forming a first chamber to provided the admission phase and the compression phase and another chamber to provided the expansion phase (D1) and the exhaust phase. The chambers are separated by two section. The peripheral interior surface of the stator is adjusted to the rotor periphery and its extension corresponds to the gap between two pistons.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a rotary machine, such as a motor or a pump, which works with a fluid in the form of a gas or a liquid. The rotary machine comprises a housing, an annular passageway arranged in the housing, and at least two rotor-driven blades which run in the annular passageway and which are movable radially in the rotor. The passageway includes a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet and a constriction located therebetween in the passageway. The radial movement of the blades is guided forcibly past the constriction. Each blade is pivotally connected to a counterweight arranged on an arm. The arm is pivotally journalled on the rotor between the counterweight and the pivotal blade connection.

Abstract: A rotary device has a housing with an elliptical inside surface surrounding an elliptical rotor. Vane and seal assemblies on the rotor and housing are controlled with cam and linkages to provide positive effective gas seals between the housing and rotor. A slack adjuster maintains lateral sealing relationships between the housing vale and seal assemblies and opposite side walls of the housing.

Abstract: A rotor 10 rotates inside a stator 13 eccentric with respect to the rotor. Retractable elements 11 in the form of blades are mounted pivotably on the rotor. The blades cooperate with the internal surface of the stator. The machine is useful as a pump, compressor, etc. The region where the rotor 10 and the stator 13 are in permanent fluid-tight contact is recessed in the wall of the stator, in which the rotor is partly embedded. Thus fluid-tightness between the admission and the delivery is produced not along a tangent line, but throughout a sector Z. The blades are withdrawn during passage through the zone Z.

Abstract: Rotary piston devices such as engines, pumps, compressors, etc. having a rotating piston member received in a chamber defining casing with a working member projecting from the piston member into sealing engagement with the chamber defining surface of the casing. The working member is received in a slot in the piston member between two guide members having opposed arcuate surfaces mating with curved surfaces of the working member, the surfaces extending parallel to the axis of rotation of the piston member.
