ABSTRACT:
A mechanism and method for increasing an internal combustion engine's output efficiency by improving the conversion of energy from a reciprocating piston motion to rotary output shaft motion by more closely matching the potential source work available from the reciprocating piston to the receiving work ability of the rotary shaft. An improved engine output shaft or output shaft design and the method of making same includes a work receiving guide on the output shaft that controls the transference of potential work to a substantially constant transitional work output. More specifically, an engine output shaft includes at least one disc-like element rotatably fixed thereto with a work receiving guide groove defined therein which engages with a lower end of a connecting rod pivotally extending from the reciprocating piston. During the power stroke, the work receiving guide means increases the length of the leverage arm and decreases the degree of angular movement associated with increments of equal displacement volume of the piston as the combustion force acting on the reciprocating piston decreases.
