ABSTRACT:
A rotary internal combustion engine comprising a stationary, water cooled housing having a large cylindrical bore in which a hollow cylinder with end walls rotates. On said cylinder a pair of wedge-shaped pistons is mounted diametrically opposed to similar reactor elements carried by a multiple splined shaft, said reactor elements remaining stationary during ignition and expansion and they are then accelerated by a novel crank mechanism to reduce the gap between the pistons and the reactor elements to exhaust the burned gases and/or compress the intake mixture of gas and air before ignition takes place.
