ABSTRACT:
A diesel engine converts the reciprocating motion of its pistons to a rotating motion through the use of a cam assembly. The engine utilizes free floating pistons mounted in cylinders having combustion chambers at both ends. Each combustion chamber is uniquely designed to maximize precombustion air and fuel mixing. The pistons are provided with radially directed pins which act as followers and are positioned in the cam groove of a power cam wheel which operates to rotate the crankshaft.
