ABSTRACT:
A rotary internal combustion engine including a plurality of variable compression ratio rotating combustion chambers or alternatively stationary combustion chambers, a multi-piston movable assembly or alternatively a multi-sector movable assembly, a multi-sector stationary assembly or alternatively multi-piston stationary assembly with means for effecting ignition or alternatively for injecting fuel into the combustion chambers. The combustion chambers are formed by the multi-sector stationary assembly and the multi-piston movable assembly such that each of the pistons is located radially of the engine's pre-definable center axis. The stationary assembly, the movable assembly and the pistons of the movable assembly are cooperatively associated one with another so that the movable assembly is capable of being made to undergo rotating motion about the engine's center axis in a circular path about the stationary assembly. Motion is imparted to the movable assembly by virtue of the forces produced during combustion in the combustion chambers acting upon the pistons which project outwardly above the rotor of the movable assembly in the area between the stationary assembly and the movable assembly, when the rotating combustion chambers are in the expansion stage.
