ABSTRACT:
A fluid meter is disclosed which comprises a body having a crankcase portion and two axially-aligned cylinder portions. The first and second cylinder portions each have an inner end in fluid communication with the crankcase portion, and respective first and second head ends opposing the inner ends. A crankshaft is rotatably mounted in the crankcase portion and includes two crank pins radially offset from the crankshaft and angularly spaced sixty degrees apart. Pistons are reciprocally mounted in the cylinder portions and are drivingly connected to the crank pins so that rotation of the crankshaft is effected by reciprocation of the pistons within the cylinders. First, second, and third ports are provided having fluid communication with the respective first head end, the second head end, and the crankcase portion. A rotary valve is provided having inlet and outlet ports arranged to sequentially register with the first, second, and third ports when the crankshaft is rotated.
