ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine (20) which includes an oscillating piston (52) and rotary valves (34) and (36) is shown. Oscillating movement of piston shaft (50) is transmitted to oscillating idler shaft (66). Outer and inner coaxial shafts (82) and (84) are connected by direction reversing gears (88) for counterrotation of the shafts. Outer shaft (82) is connected to oscillating shaft 66 through gear sets (102) and (104), and inner shaft (84) is connected thereto through gear sets (106) and (108). Gear sets (102) and (106) include one-way overrunning clutches (110) and (112), and gear sets (104) and (108) include electromagnetically controlled friction clutches. (See FIG. 1) In FIG. 13, mechanically operated clutches (200A) and (200B) are used in place of the electromagnetically controlled friction clutches shown in FIG. 1, and in FIG. 17, sector gear sets (244) and (246) connect oscillating shaft 66 to respective coaxial shafts (82) and (84). Threaded arms (300A and 300B), extend radially outwardly from oscillating shaft (50) and motors (302A and 302B) are movable along the arms for control of the moment of inertia of the oscillating shaft (50).
