Abstract

An engine block has compression and expansion cylinders with a compression and an expansion piston, respectively, therein. Each piston is connected to a crankshaft. A rotary prechamber tube has two constant volume combustion chambers defined therein and is positioned within a housing coupled to the engine block.
Induction and expansion ports respectively form passageways communicating the compression cylinder and the expansion cylinder with the chambers of the tube.
The tube is rotatably supported in the housing and has its axis generally transverse to the cylinder axes. During operation, the chambers are successively brought into communication via the induction port with the compression cylinder, separated from communication with the compression cylinder, brought into a position to receive fuel from the fuel injector and to initiate combustion, and then brought into communication via the expansion port with the expansion cylinder to complete combusion.
