ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for providing motive power consisting of a plurality of rotary-type pistons fitted into chambers uniformly situated about the axis of the engine in a housing for improving the effective displacement and compression of such engines. Motive forces generated by the pressure exerted on the piston are transferred from the cylinders through operative pins projecting axially from each of the pistons. The operative pins engage tracks in a guide plates. Due to the shape of the operative pins and tracks in the guide plate, the resultant forces generated between the operative pins and the guide plate cause the housing to rotate relative to the guide plate, generating torque. Thrust layers are provided which have involutes to introduce fuel and other fluids into the piston chambers and to remove exhaust fluids from the chambers. Cover plates are also provided to prevent the introduction and removal of fluids from the chambers from interfering with the transfer of power to the guide plates.
