Abstract
In an apparatus for driving an output shaft (21) by means of a piston and an intermediate driving gear, the piston consists of two piston parts (1, 2), which together form combustion chambers (43). The two piston parts (1, 2) rotate about an axis (A) so that the width of the combustion chambers (43) is variable.
Claims15
A rotary piston engine wherein two rotating pistons rotate around one axis within a cylindrical case, the pistons being connected with a motor shaft by means of a crank gear and a planetary gear system, the pistons forming together four variable combustion chambers, each piston being provided with at least one segmented cylinder cutout (41) and at least one axially spaced segmented cylinder section (42), the segmented cylinder cutout (41) having a greater angle than the segmented cylinder section (42), so that the segmented cylinder section (42) of one piston is arranged within the segmented cylinder cutout (41) of the other piston.
