Abstract
An engine includes an air cylinder system, a driving system including a piston and a crankshaft, a power generating system and a cooling system. The power generating system is disposed on a side of the driving system and includes a generator and a counterweight. The generator includes a main body and a rotor pivotally disposed within the main body. The cooling system is disposed on an opposite side of the driving system and includes a first water pump in fluid communication with the air cylinder system. An outline of the rotor is projected along the crankshaft to forma first projecting zone. Projections of the first water pump and the driving system along the crankshaft are located almost wholly in the first projecting zone.
Claims9
An engine, comprising:
- an air cylinder system;
- a driving system disposed under said air cylinder system and including a piston that is capable of moving upwardly and downwardly in said cylinder system and a crankshaft that is driven by said piston;
- a power generating system disposed on a side of said driving system and including a generator that is disposed on one end of said crankshaft and that is driven by said crankshaft, and a counterweight that is disposed on said crankshaft, said generator including a main body and a rotor that is pivotally disposed within said main body and that is adjacent to said counterweight;
- and
- a cooling system disposed on an opposite side of said driving system and including a first water pump that is in fluid communication with said air cylinder system;
- wherein an outline of said rotor is projected along an axis of said crankshaft to form a first projecting zone, projected areas of said first water pump and said driving system along the axis of said crankshaft being located almost wholly in the first projecting zone.
