ABSTRACT:
An engine block mounts one or more rotors 16 within cylindrical rotor bores that are partially overlapped by cylindrical gate valve bores. A rotary gate valve is mounted within the gate valve bore and partially overlaps the rotating rotor. Angularly spaced lobes on the rotor are interspersed with angularly spaced flanges on the rotary gate valve. The lobes rotate within a groove that is closed off by movement of the flanges, thereby forming an expandable "combustion chamber" to propel the rotor about its axis. Incoming gases can be provided through and combusted within hollow portions of the rotor.
