Rotary engine lubrication system using intensifier injector

A rotary internal combustion engine (ICE) comprising:

• a housing defining a rotor cavity;
• a rotor rotationally received within the rotor cavity to define a plurality of working chambers of variable volume around the rotor, the rotor having circumferentially spaced peripheral apex seals biased radially outwardly in sliding engagement against a peripheral wall of the housing to separate the working chambers from one another, the housing having a fluid passage defined therethrough and opening into an inner surface of the peripheral wall;
• and an injector having a lubricant inlet hydraulically connected to a lubricant source, an actuation inlet hydraulically connected to a source of an actuation fluid, and a lubricant outlet, the injector having an open state in which the lubricant outlet is in fluid flow communication with the fluid passage upon the actuation fluid being received within the injector and a closed state in which the lubricant outlet is disconnected from the fluid passage, the injector having a valve movable from a first position corresponding to the closed state to a second position corresponding to the open state, a first electromagnet operable to move the valve between the first position and the second position, and a backup electromagnet operable to move the valve between the first position and the second position.
