Valving system for compressors, engines and the like

In a rotary vee device that includes:

• a. a rotational cylinder block having a plurality of cylinders defined therewithin and rotatable about a central longitudinal axis;
• b. a plurality of pistons disposed within said cylinders such that there is relative rotational and reciprocal motion between interior walls of said cylinder and the exterior walls of said pistons;
• c. a plurality of respective inlet ports and passageways for intake of a fluid within respective cylinders atop respective said pistons therewithin at least by the time said pistons and said cylinders have attained a predetermined first position;
• said intake ports being connected with and communicating with respective said cylinders at least by said first position;
• d. a plurality of respective discharge ports and discharge passageways for discharging fluid from within said cylinder at a predetermined second position;
• said discharge port being connected with and communicating with respective said cylinders at said second position;
• e. power delivery means connected with said device for delivering power with respect thereto;
• an improvement comprising:
• f. a plurality of respective first flow areas defined on one of the surfaces of said piston and cylinder such that respective ports will traverse thereacross during a revolution of said cylinder block;
• g. a plurality of first flow passageways communicating intermediate said first flow area and its said cylinder, at least one for each said cylinder and piston;
• each said first fluid passageway terminating at a first end in communication with the interior of its respective said cylinder above its respective said piston and at its second end in communication with its respective said first flow area;
• h. said respective plurality of intake ports and discharge ports comprising apertures located at predetermined locations on the other of said surface of said cylinder and piston and connected with respective intake and discharge passageways for respective intake and discharge flow of a fluid when a respective port is rotatably and reciprocally brought into communication with its said first flow area;
• such that as respective said relative rotational and reciprocal motion is effected between respective said pistons and cylinders an intake flow passage is defined for intake of a fluid interiorly of said cylinder, followed by closure of said intake flow passage, followed by pressurizing of said fluid, followed by opening of a discharge flow passage for discharge of a fluid from the interior of said cylinder, followed by closure of said discharge flow passage to complete a cycle;
• thereafter repeating said cycle.
