ABSTRACT:
A corner seal member for use in a rotary internal combustion engine is constructed with an apex seal groove and an elongated cavity. The elongated cavity forms a thin wall having a substantially semicircular cross-section in the opposite side of the apex seal groove. The gas pressure delivered into the elongated cavity is advantageously used for urging the corner seal towards the inner surface of the corner seal groove, thereby preventing the gas pressure from leaking into an adjacent working chamber.
