For example, the gas in thesupply device 15 can be air, which is cheap and safe, is obtained easily and has no any pollution. - The
admission valve 113 and theexhaust valve 114 can be selected from two different mode valves consisting of mechanical valves and electronic valves. For example, theexhaust valve 114 as shown inFIGS. 1-4 is a poppet valve, which is a normal mechanical valve, and theadmission valve 113 as shown isFIGS. 1 ,2 and5 is a typical solenoid valve. However, theadmission valve 113 and theexhaust valve 114 as shown inFIGS. 1-5 is only used to explain the present invention. Both of theadmission valve 113 and theexhaust valve 114 can be selected from the two different mode valves. - In the embodiment as shown in

Thecam 172 is connected with the output terminal of thecrank member 14 and rotates by rotating the output terminal of thecrank member 14 to drive thelimited switch 171 and control the solenoid valve (the admission valve 113). - Furthermore, a
flywheel 19 is arranged at a side of thecrank member 14. - The operation of the power machine of the present invention is described as following:
- When the
piston 12 moves between an upper dead center and 10 degrees before the upper dead center, theadmission valve 113 is opened to provide the high pressure gas into thecylinder 11. At the same time, theexhaust valve 114 is closed. Therefore, at this time, aprotrusion 173 of thecam 172 touches thelimited switch 171 to open theadmission valve 113. - When the
piston 12 moves between approximate 10 degrees before a lower dead center and the lower dead center, theadmission valve 113 is closed to stop providing the high pressure gas. Tests prove the power machine outputs excellently power by closing theadmission valve 113 at the 10 degrees before the lower dead center. - When the
piston 12 reaches the lower dead center, theexhaust valve 114 is opened to exhaust the high pressure gas out. - When the
