ABSTRACT:
A piston engine, that may comprise one or more piston assemblies, employs hydraulic pressure principles in combination with an internal combustion construction to minimize the fuel required to operate the engine. The engine includes multiple assemblies for housing a small upper piston operated in an oscillating manner from combustion at the top surface of the piston, a large piston below the small piston operated through a hydraulic medium from the upper piston, and output means from the large piston including a crankshaft or the like, preferably a short stroke crankshaft. By employing a small piston on top, maximum hydraulic force is transferred to the larger piston to increase operating efficiency.
