ABSTRACT:
A single acting steam engine wherein means are provided for auxiliary exhaust through the piston when an auxiliary exhaust poppet valve is open and the auxiliary exchange passages of the piston register with exhaust ports in the cylinder wall. The opening and closing of the auxiliary exhaust poppet valve are responsive to the rate of reciprocation of the pistons. A multiple of said engines may be utilized in combination to provide a multiple cylinder power plant. The engines drive a swash plate, which is formed with recessed, annular thrust surfaces. Projecting at right angles from the recessed, thrust surfaces are exhaust cams that engage valve stems through cam followers for actuating the same. The valve stems actuate the exhaust valves. The throat thickness of the swash plate between the recessed annular thrust surfaces is of uniform dimension along the circumferential paths thereof. The recessed, annular thrust surfaces have their axes coincident with the axis of rotation of the swash plate so that the radial components thereof are at right angles to the axis of rotation of the swash plate.
