ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to improvements in engines of the reciprocating piston type, especially reciprocating piston internal combustion engines suitable for stationary and non-stationary uses. The pistons of the engine are operatively connected to the drive shaft of the engine via an elongated gear-roller gear pinion mechanism. In association with a cylinder-piston unit of the engine there is provided a roller gear pinion, engaged with the drive shaft such that rotation thereof rotates the drive shaft. An elongated roller gear is pivotally connected via an end to a piston, and the opposite open end of said elongated roller gear is meshed with the roller gear pinion. The elongated roller gear is guided through a path via appropriate mechanism which maintains continuous contact between said gears such that reciprocation of the piston within a cylinder produces rotation of the drive shaft. The invention also relates to an improved metering device for the introduction of air, or a mixture of fuel and air into the engine.
