ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In mechanical energy production through internal combustion motors, several different engines have been developed featured by carrying out 4 basic functions or strokes: admission, compression, explosion and exhaust. This type of engine was the invention of August Otto and has been subsequently the subject of several changes. Its basic principles remaining unchanged; these gave rise to engines having 4-valves per piston, 2 sparkplugs per piston, engines with cylinders in line or in V, engines carrying out the 4 functions or strokes in two turns of the piston crankshaft, the so-called 2-stroke engine; also there are engines with pistons divided around a crankshaft, mostly used in aviation, the toric engine as well as others. The Wankel engine at one thee was considered the potential definite substitute of the traditional Otto piston engine, but due to higher fuel consumption, in relation to the traditional engine, forced the idea to be abandoned. There is also the engine that due to over-compression explodes its mixture, such as Diesel engine, and there exist other power plants that have not been proven a challenge to the Otto engine. At present, auto manufacturers and others, are looking for other options to substitute internal combustion engines, for example, electric engines.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An object of the invention is to use 4 basic strokes: admission, compression, explosion and exhaust, to manufacture a new internal combustion motor plant, characterized by its ability to produce energy within rectangular chambers inside a circular device, whereby the 4 strokes are carried out using rectangular piston blades pivoting at one end and transmitting power through the other end of the piston blades to the pinions via the connecting rods and the crankshafts. These moving pinions, that according to their movement push the rotor, actuate through a gear a fixed pinion or a fixed interior toothed-ring, allowing it to begin a new cycle once a cycle has ended.
In one embodiment of the engine having 4-piston blades, it has the ability to repeat the cycle of admission, compression, and explosion and exhaust cycle once each revolution or turn of the engine, and in the embodiment having 8-piston blades, twice each revolution or turn of the engine. That is, either the pinions traveling across an internal fixed toothed-ring or encircling a fixed pinion with the same relation, 2:1 for the 4-piston blade engine, 4:1 for the 8-piston blade engine and 6:1 for 12-piston blade engine embodiment.
The present invention further relies on a lubrication system where oil comes into through the central portion of the engine by means of a mechanical seal with holes and slots and is evacuated through seals along the periphery of the rotor.
The present invention further includes an air-cooling system, located in the sides or the rotor, provided with turbines allowing for air to pass from one side of the rotor to the other by means of chambers in the fixed portion of the stator. The lubrication system also helps in the cooling due to the hot oil evacuated from the engine passes through a radiator. The engine seals or gaskets are similar to those of the Wankel engine, these seals lowering friction both in the chambers as in the rotor.
The present invention, additionally, is provided with a reinforcing system or additional aid to piston blade displacement by explosion through polarization of the piston blades with positive or negative magnetic charges which are repel or repulsed with its stator, when piston blades are nearer the stator with the same type of positive or negative magnetic charge. The charge of the electromagnet of the stator is increased at the moment that it passes a few degrees from its maximum position through the load yielded by the alternator or dynamo, which is synchronized and distributed by means of timers, electronic panels, thus further lowering fuel consumption.
