ABSTRACT:
An orbital engine having a piston member mounted eccentrically upon a shaft journalled in a housing so that the piston member orbits within the housing as the shaft rotates. A control member supported in the housing to describe an orbital path corresponding to the desired path of the piston member and restrained to move in this path by a plurality of secondary cranks of the same eccentricity as the shaft. The control member being connected to the piston member by a tongue and slot connection which will not permit relative movement between the piston member and the stabilizer plate in the circumferential direction, but will permit relative movement in the axial and radial direction.
