ABSTRACT:
A cross-over rod internal combustion engine (10). The engine (10) includes a power train including a receiving cylinder (12) and a power output cylinder (34) disposed at a right angle to each other and coupled by a plurality of rods (40), each defining a 90.degree. bend. The receiving cylinder (12) and the power output cylinder (34) react to an axial force applied to a piston (48) received within one of the cylinder bores (14). The housing (52) carries a lead wire (88) for firing a spark plug (84) associated with each cylinder bore (14) as the cylinder bore (14) rotates past the lead wire (88). An oil duct (92) is provided for circulating oil from the lower housing (68) to the upper portion of the upper housing (52). A fuel and air mixture is introduced into the individual cylinder bores (14) through an inlet port (16) and is evacuated, when spent, through an exhaust port (18). In similar fashion, water is introduced through a water inlet (20) and is evacuated through a water outlet (22) during the rotation of the receiving cylinder (12). A spring (114) is positioned proximate the bottom of each of the cylinder bores (14). The spring (114) serves to absorb the inertia of the piston (48) as it approaches the bottom of its stroke, the energy absorbed by the spring (114) being used to push the piston (48) back toward the top of its stroke.
