ABSTRACT:
Axial-piston combustion engine having a rotating drum journaled in a housing and having therein a number of pistons and the usual cylinder bores, an inclined crank disc coupled with the drum, the disc being supported against the encountered gas pressures both by the customary axial thrust bearing and, according to the invention, by two consecutive, hydraulically interconnected hydrostatic axial thrust bearings fed by an oil-pressure source, wherein only the rearward one of the two bearings has a slit for controlling oil pressure, while the rearward bearing of the two constitutes a hydraulic relief for the customary bearing.
