ABSTRACT:
An improved slant axis rotary mechanism, such as an engine, compressor, pump, or the like, of the type having a housing with a chamber defined by a radially outward spherical wall, a radially inner spherical wall, and opposed generally radially extending side walls interconnecting the spherical walls. A shaft is journalled within the housing and has an angularly offset portion within the chamber. A rotor having a generally spherical hub is within the chamber and journalled on the shaft. The rotor hub has a raised bearing area in sliding engagement with the inner spherical surface of the housing. As a consequence, gas and thrust loads on the shaft and bearings journalling the same are shared by the housing to increase the useful life of the mechanism.
