Abstract
The invention appertains to a gas exhaust device for 4-stroke piston engines, in the cylinder of which combustible gases and air rotate around the vertical axis of the cylinder without being mixed, and combustible gases and air escape through a gap created by a vertically movable ring valve and a stationary ring valve support seated in the cylinder.
Claims1
Ring valve for 4-stroke piston engines with air intake device, fuel nozzle and ignition device characterised in that a rotating, air shrouded mixture is formed and combusted in the cylinder, during which a ring valve mounted in a cylindrical bore which is movable along the vertical axis of the cylinder and coaxially mounted to this axis, together with a ring valve support which is stationary mounted in the cylinder, seals the compression and cylinder chamber against the exhaust channel by means of sealing areas on both ring valve and ring valve support, whereby the sealing areas are situated at a distance to that part of the cylinder head which partially forms the compression chamber.
