DE102013002329A1 - Dual output engine e.g. maximum efficiency internal cycle engine has coupling elements that drive functional elements such that resulting output torque of second functional element is positive and larger than that of first element - Google Patents

Abstract

The dual output engine provides outputs (A,B) of two functional elements, comprising successive, cyclic, negative and positive output torques. The coupling elements in form of a crank (K1), a couple guide (K2) and a coupling rod (K3) are provided to drive the functional elements technically such that the resulting output torque of the second functional element is positive and is larger than resulting output torque of the first functional element.

Description

The invention relates to a MEICE (Maximum Efficiency Internal Cycle Engine) as an engine according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

The aim of the invention is to develop a simple in construction, environmentally friendly and resource-saving engine, while it is inexpensive and which also has an effective efficiency. This is not feasible with the conventional art. However, the invention achieves this by realizing special influencing variables with regard to their geometries and corresponding parameters with respect to their functional elements.

Core idea of the invention is the targeted arrangement of defined loaded and specially trained coupling elements of a first output of a machine with a second, drive-downstream of this machine, further output.

A principal embodiment of the invention is shown in the following 1 to 3 and also finds in particular with reference to the claims explanation:

Fig. 1:

A first output A (with direction of rotation in the direction of the arrow) is characterized by the circular path A1 with the center of rotation A2. Its drive characteristic (here: crank drive) or working potential is to be provided here by way of example and in particular by means of the compression and expansion of an elastic medium such as gas. This results in the output A (in particular crankshaft) successive negative and positive moments, which hold in the simplest case easily the balance. So there is no torque surplus in this case.

Coupling elements in the form of a crank K1 and a rotatable straight guide with the coupling guide K2 and the coupling rod K3 kinematically connect the first output A to the second output B. The latter consists essentially of a pivotable (double arrow) generator B3 from the path B1 about the pivot point B2 , The functionality is now based on 2 described:

Fig. 2

The coupling elements are arranged so defined that a particularly switched torque output is achieved by A2, such that the negative and positive torques of A act on K2 in different ways according to the invention in such a way that, despite the same energy or load potential, the negative torque by B2 is significantly smaller than the positive torque by B2. Subsection a) stands for a schematic load profile with the tangential torque M _F , plotted against the shaft rotation angle α in ° KW. Subitem b): In the illustrated position of the output A, an engagement point A3 is marked with the corresponding tangential force F _T1 . The effective force component of the force corner is then F _W1 with a comparatively small effective lever around A2 or B2 and generates a comparatively small negative torque. In the further course, the point of application A4 then has a tangential force F _T2 with an effective force component F _W2 . The latter generates a relatively large positive torque with a comparatively large effective lever around A2 or B2 (the effective force component F _W2 is almost twice as large as the force component F _W1 , despite the same load potential).

Fig. 3

The inventive coupling of the outputs A and B is formed from the conventional torque torque c) a modified, more favorable torque diagram d). Visible is the - with identical, positive - much lower, smaller, negative course. The resulting torque potential can then be used positively with the coupled, pivotable generator.
