Abstract
The present invention relates to a sine rotary engine and, more specifically, to a technology providing high torque, thereby minimizing energy loss, by using a machine device, which can be used for various purposes such as for producing power by converting, into rotational energy, energy generated using fluid having various pressures or through a chemical reaction of fuel, and, conversely, for a pump that receives power from the outside so as to transfer fluid.
