ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to internal combustion engines in which the cylinders are arranged parallel to the main shaft and the reciprocating movements of the pistons are converted to rotation by means of a swashplate, and more particularly to means for automatically varying the combustion chamber volume to get at all times the maximum combustion chamber pressure permissible. Various embodiments of the invention are shown and involve changing the compression ratio by the controlled movements of a fluid under the action of the gas pressure in the combustion chambers. The movement of the fluid being controlled variously and in combination by check valves, spring loaded discharge valves and discharge orifices arranged and adjusted to give the required changes in position in accordance with the engine load with the use of spring pressure to maintain a balanced condition in the various arrangements.
