  • torque is transmitted between the rotary motor and the rotary compressor.
  • the motor-compressor unit can have an input/output shaft that is connected to both the rotary motor and the rotary compressor.
  • the distance between the piston axis and the engine axis is also referred to as eccentricity.
  • the up and down movement of the engine pistons within the associated cylinders is due to the fact that the engine pistons and the engine rim each rotate about different axes of rotation, namely the engine rim around the engine axis and the engine pistons around the piston axis. Both the engine rim and the engine pistons each rotate on a circular path during operation of the rotary engine.
  • Units that include both a drive, in particular a motor, and a compressor are already known in the prior art.
  • a drive in particular a motor
  • a compressor for example, on the US Patent Application 2007/0172363 A1 referred.
  • This includes a motor-compressor unit in which an unspecified drive interacts with an axial compressor.
  • the motor-compressor unit is characterized in that it is arranged in a common housing.
  • the well-known motor-compressor unit is shielded from the environment by means of this housing.
  • the document mentioned deals with a special routing of the air compressed by means of the compressor, with at least a proportion of the compressed air being used to cool the drive.
  • a rotary engine of the type described above also results from the U.S. Patent 1,968,694 .
  • This patent shows a rotary engine having an engine ring with a plurality of cylinders and a corresponding number of engine pistons, the engine pistons being each articulated by connecting rods to a common connecting rod disc.
  • the connecting rod disk rotates about a piston axis, which is offset by an eccentricity to the engine axis of the rotary engine shown.
  • the control of the valves of the individual cylinders is particularly complicated.
  • a rotary engine which discloses an engine housing with a cam track, with which the valves of the cylinders are controlled.
  • the present invention is based on the object of providing a motor-compressor unit that can be operated in particular without a supply of electrical power, with the simplest possible rotary motor advantageously being used.
  • the rotary motor comprises a motor housing with at least one motor rim rotatably mounted in the motor housing.
  • the motor rim is rotatably mounted about a motor axis of the motor housing.
  • At least one cylinder preferably a plurality of cylinders, is arranged within the motor rim, with a motor piston being arranged in each of the cylinders.
  • An engine piston delimits a combustion chamber together with the wall of the respectively associated cylinder, the engine piston being guided inside the cylinder so as to be linearly movable along a central axis of the respective cylinder. In other words, the volume of the combustion chamber can be changed by moving the engine piston along the cylinder axis.

  • the motor piston or pistons are rotated in such a way that the motor pistons revolve on a circular path around the piston axis.
  • the piston axis is oriented parallel to and spaced from the engine axis. In other words, is the piston axis arranged eccentrically to the motor axis. The consequence of this is that the motor rim and the motor pistons rotate about different axes or revolve on different circular paths.

  • the piston axis is arranged parallel to the compressor axis and offset by an eccentricity at a distance from the compressor axis. While the compressor ring rotates about the compressor axis and the compressor piston—as described—rotates about the piston axis, during the operation of the rotary compressor, analogous to the rotary engine described above, a continuous relative movement takes place between the compressor pistons and the respectively associated cylinder, as a result of which an up and down Ab-movement of the compressor pistons in the cylinders is due.

  • all suitable substances can be considered as fuels for the rotary engine, in particular natural gas, petrol or diesel.
  • the combination of a compressor with an internal combustion engine offers the advantage that the compressor can be operated independently of an electrical power supply. This can be particularly beneficial in regions that are not supplied with electricity.
  • the rotary engine is advantageously operated as a two-stroke engine. This means that each of the pistons performs two strokes within the cylinder between two consecutive ignitions in the associated cylinder. This type of operation of the rotary engine is particularly simple compared to four-stroke operation and contributes to increased longevity of the rotary engine.
  • the rotary motor and the rotary compressor are each mounted in an associated housing, the rotary motor in a motor housing and the rotary compressor in a compressor housing.

  • This Elevation is such that a high point of the elevation measured from the respective axis of rotation of the respective rotary machine has a smaller radial distance than the other points of the respective housing outside of this elevation. This geometric relationship is explained below with reference to the exemplary embodiment.
  • a corresponding motor housing with an elevation offers the particular advantage that it can be used for mechanical control of a valve device of a cylinder of the rotary engine.
  • valve control can be carried out particularly easily by means of two mechanical forces, namely the centrifugal force that occurs due to the rotation of the rotary motor and the other by means of an axial force that is transmitted by means of a transmission element.
  • the transmission element is suitable for transmitting an axial force, which is directed in the radial direction of the rotary engine, to an associated valve disk or another valve element of the motor rim, for example.
  • valve device together with a corresponding valve plate is pressed into its sealing seat due to the acting centrifugal force, so that the combustion chamber of a respective cylinder is sealed off from its surroundings.
  • the valve device In the area of the elevation on the inner lateral surface of the motor housing, however, the valve device is forced to move relative to the motor rim when viewed in the radial direction relative to the motor axis, in that a transmission element, which interacts with the elevation, moves due to the form fit between the valve device and the Survey must move in the radial direction in which extends the survey viewed in the radial direction.
  • valve train To design the valve train, a designer is now free to provide one or more bumps along the perimeter of the motor housing and determine their arc length relative to the motor axis. In this way, depending on individual application alone by changing a positioning of a survey and the geometry of the valve control of the associated rotary motor can be adjusted freely.
  • valve control is correspondingly particularly robust and is also possible independently of an electrical supply, for example a complex control or the like.
  • the centrifugal control described does not require such aids. It may only be necessary for a start-up phase of the rotary motor to provide a corresponding valve spring, since there may not yet be sufficient centrifugal forces acting on the valve device. However, such a valve spring remains inoperative in an operating phase of the rotary engine.
  • an associated valve device includes a guide element, in particular a roller or a carriage, by means of which the valve device is guided on the inner lateral surface of the motor housing.
  • the inner lateral surface preferably has a corresponding guide element, for example in the form of a guide groove or a guide rail.

  • the rotary compressor acts at least partially, preferably completely, as a turbocharger for the rotary engine. Supercharging the rotary engine is suitable for increasing its efficiency.
  • the cylinders of the rotary motor and the rotary compressor are assigned to each other, being arranged relative to the transmission axis with only a small angular offset of a maximum of 20°, preferably a maximum of 10°, more preferably completely offset.
  • the cylinders of the rotary motor and the rotary compressor are advantageously arranged one behind the other in alignment or slightly twisted relative to one another, viewed along an axis of the motor-compressor unit.
  • such a turbo pipe can be designed completely straight, that is to say it can be designed without kinks, curves or other deflections over its longitudinal axis.
  • both the rotary engine and the rotary compressor are operated at the same speed, so that the turbo pipe or pipes can be firmly connected to the cylinders assigned to them.
  • the rotary engine and the rotary compressor are advantageously each equipped with the same number of cylinders.
  • a cylinder of the rotary compressor is preferably assigned to each of the cylinders of the rotary engine, with each pair of cylinders being fluidically coupled by means of a turbo pipe.
  • turbo pipe is continuously cooled by its rotation together with the rotary motor and the rotary compressor.
  • a temperature problem as often occurs in the prior art with known turbochargers, can be avoided in this way.
  • the straight, i.e. non-bent, design of the turbo pipe also contributes to this.
  • the valve device is positively engaged with the motor housing at least over a partial angular range of a complete revolution of the cylinder around the engine axis, wherein at least one valve element of the valve device can be lifted out of its sealing seat by means of the engagement, so that a fluidic connection between the combustion chamber of the cylinder and a Environment is releasable or released.
  • the rotary motor and the rotary compressor of the motor-compressor unit according to the invention are advantageously arranged along a common axis, with the motor axis of the rotary motor and the compressor axis of the rotary compressor coinciding.
  • This common axis of the motor-compressor unit also forms a transmission axis of the transmission device, by means of which the rotary motor and the rotary compressor are connected to one another.
  • the arrangement of the rotary motor and the rotary compressor directly next to each other or one above the other is particularly advantageous with regard to the torque-resistant coupling of the two rotary machines, since only a rigid connection between the motor ring and the compressor ring has to be created.

If a rotary engine is coupled to a rotary compressor, there is the possibility of using the rotary compressor to supercharge the rotary engine, that is to say as a turbocharger, so to speak. For this it is necessary that the valves of the rotary engine and the rotary compressor open at different points in time on their orbit around the transmission axis.
  • the valving of the rotary engine opens to discharge exhaust gas from the respective associated cylinders, while the opening of the valves of the rotary compressor serves to discharge the compressed gas from the respective cylinder. If this compressed gas is intended for introduction into the combustion chamber of a respective cylinder of the rotary engine, it will be understood that the valving of the rotary engine should be closed at the time of introduction of the compressed gas, while the valving of the rotary compressor must be open. A described offset of the elevations is therefore particularly advantageous in such a case.
  • the described opposite of the elevations viewed relative to the transmission axis of the motor-compressor unit is particularly advantageous when the motor-compressor unit or at least the rotary motor thereof is operated in two-stroke operation.

It is particularly advantageous for this construction to arrange the rotary motor 2 and the rotary compressor 3 on a common support shaft. Since both the rotary engine 2 and the rotary compressor 3 are, in a manner of speaking, a kinematic inverted version of a typical piston engine, this carrier shaft can also be regarded as a stationary crankshaft 18 .

It goes without saying that, conversely, when a motor piston 7 is in its lower reversal position, the associated compressor piston 15 is in its upper reversal position.
  • This arrangement of the engine pistons 7 and the compressor pistons 15 relative to one another offers the advantage that the rotary compressor 3 can be used as a turbocharger for the rotary engine 2 .
  • This is based on the following consideration: when a motor piston 7 is in its lower reversing position, the motor piston 7 releases the gas inlet opening 25 of the cylinder 6 in the associated cylinder 6 .
  • the compressor piston 15 of the associated cylinder 14 of the rotary compressor 3 is in its upper reversing position, in which the gas in the compression chamber is compressed to the maximum.

  • the design of the elevation 21 follows the basic idea that a valve device 27 mounted circumferentially in the motor housing is forced to be guided radially inwards by engaging with the elevation 21 , i.e. in the direction of the motor axis 5. This guidance of a valve device takes place solely on the basis of being guided past the same along the elevation 21. Thus, there is a purely mechanical control of the valve device.

As a result, the valve disk 28 of a valve device 27 is lifted once during one revolution of the rotary engine 2 from its associated sealing seat on the associated cylinder 6 and consequently the combustion chamber 26 is fluidically connected to an environment of the cylinder 6 . This makes it possible to conduct gases from the combustion chamber 26 out of the cylinder 6 .
  • an exhaust pipe 31 is advantageously arranged at an upper valve opening of each cylinder 6 of the motor rim 4 , through which the exhaust gases can then escape in a guided manner.
  • a closure of the valve that is to say a pressing of the valve disk 28 onto its associated sealing seat, takes place automatically after the elevation 21 has been passed, solely as a result of the prevailing centrifugal forces.
  • a mechanical feedback for example by means of a spring element, is not necessary.
  • the valve device in 27 is held in the guide groove 35 by the effect of centrifugal force with its roller 29 and is only forced radially inward in the direction of the motor axis 5 when the elevation 21 is passed. resulting in the opening mechanism described.
  • the rotary compressor 3 is also equipped with a corresponding elevation 21, guide groove 35 and associated valve device in 27 . Due to the staggered arrangement of the piston axes 7, 11 of the rotary motor 2 and the rotary compressor 3 , the elevations 21 in the motor/compressor housing 22 are arranged in an equally staggered manner corresponding to the angular offset of the piston axes 7, 11 . In this example, the projections 21 are opposite to each other in the motor-compressor housing 22 when viewed relative to the transmission axis 9 .
  • the control of the valve device in 27 of the rotary compressor 3 enables the gas compressed in the respective compression chamber to be released and thus allows it to flow out of the gas outlet opening 24 into the turbo pipe 23.

The form fit causes the crankshaft 18 actually is fixed together with the motor-compressor housing 22 and does not rotate about the transmission axis 9 .
  • the rotary compressor 3 is used exclusively for charging the rotary motor 2 . It goes without saying that the rotary compressor 3 is not necessary for operation of the rotary motor 2 , but is very advantageous.
  • the axial arrangement of rotary machines along a common axis offers the significant advantage that it is easily conceivable to combine further rotary machines with the motor-compressor unit 1 shown here or, for example, with an isolated rotary motor 2 . It is thus conceivable, for example, to transmit torque from the motor-compressor unit 1 shown to a further rotary compressor by means of gear wheels, so that this further rotary compressor can be operated in a manner analogous to the rotary compressor 3 described.
  • a further rotary compressor acts as a compressor in an otherwise conventional compression refrigeration machine, that is to say, in other words, the motor-compressor unit 1 can be used as a drive element for an air conditioning system.
  • a torque-locking engagement of the respective rotary motor or of a plurality of rotary motors coupled to one another and with the associated rotary compressor can be selectively activated and deactivated.
