Abstract
A trochoidal design rotary piston engine design has an external axis cogwheel oil pump which has a smaller diameter drive cogwheel which drives a larger diameter size cogwheel where the larger diameter size cogwheel is coupled to an oil-metering pump. The larger cogwheel is supported in a side disk disposed at one side of an engine housing forming a combustion engine.
Claims21
A rotary piston engine comprising:
- a housing;
- first and second side disks at respective opposite sides of the housing to form a rotary piston chamber;
- an eccentric shaft for a rotary piston extending in said housing;
- a cogwheel pump including
- a first cogwheel mounted on the eccentric shaft, and
- a second cogwheel mounted on the first side disk to be drivingly engageable with said first cogwheel;
- and
- an oil metering pump operable to supply lubricating oil to tracks of the housing and side disks, wherein the oil metering pump is driven by the second cogwheel of the cogwheel pump.
A rotary piston engine comprising:
- a housing,
- first and second side disks at respective opposite sides of the housing to form a rotary piston chamber,
- an eccentric shaft for a rotary piston extending in said housing,
- an oil metering pump operable to supply lubricating oil to tracks of the housing and side disks,
- a first cogwheel mounted on the eccentric shaft and disposed adjacent the first side disk, and
- a second cogwheel mounted on the first side disk to be drivingly engageable with said first cogwheel to drive the oil metering pump, wherein the second cogwheel has a diameter at least twice as large as the diameter of the first cogwheel.
A rotary piston engine comprising:
- a housing,
- first and second side disks at respective opposite sides of the housing to form a rotary piston chamber,
- an eccentric shaft for a rotary piston extending in said housing,
- an oil metering pump operable to supply lubricating oil to tracks of the housing and side disks,
- a first cogwheel mounted on the eccentric shaft and disposed adjacent the first side disk, and
- a second cogwheel mounted on the first side disk to be drivingly engageable with said first cogwheel to drive the oil metering pump, wherein both the first and second cogwheel are installed between an inset plate facing the first side disk and a side disk cover with an integrated cogwheel pump housing.
An oil metering pump assembly for use with a rotary piston engine of the type having a piston housing covered at one end with a side disk which supports an eccentric shaft, said pump assembly comprising:
- an oil metering pump housing cover connectible to a side disk of the engine,
- a first cogwheel mountable on the eccentric shaft and disposed adjacent the first side disk, and
- a second cogwheel mounted on the first side disk to be drivingly engageable with said first cogwheel to drive the oil metering pump, wherein the second cogwheel has a diameter at least twice as large as the diameter of the first cogwheel.
