Abstract
A rotary piston engine having a main rotor, a power rotor, and an exhaust rotor which is capable of carrying out intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust simultaneously.
Claims6
A rotary piston engine that undergoes intake, compression, combustion, and exhaust of gases simultaneously, comprising:
- an engine housing;
- a main rotor disposed within the engine housing, wherein the main rotor has a plurality of rotary pistons;
- a power rotor in contact with a first portion of the main rotor, wherein the power rotor has a power rotor chamber that is configured to engage the rotary pistons of the main rotor and to facilitate the compression and combustion of gases;
- and
- an exhaust rotor in contact with a second portion of the main rotor, wherein the exhaust rotor has an exhaust rotor chamber that is configured to engage the rotary pistons of the main rotor, wherein the main rotor rotates within the engine housing and is rotationally engaged with the power rotor and the exhaust rotor at all times, and wherein the rotary pistons engage the engine housing in a manner that forces the gases to move throughout the engine housing.
