Abstract

117,684. Williams, A. H. July 27, 1917. Compression engines; driving-gear. - Cylinders 1, 2 are arranged in polygonal formation around a central driving-shaft 9 and contain double - acting pistons which are acted upon in pairs by explosions occurring in chambers located at the angles of the polygon. Fig. 1 shows a four-strokecycle engine in which the pistons of alternate cylinders a are connected to oscillating arms 8 one of which is connected to a crankshaft 5 by a rod 14. the shaft carrying a pinion 16 which gears with a wheel 17 on the main shaft. The pistons of the cylinders b are similarly connected through arms 19 and a rod 21 to a crank-shaft 6 carrying a pinion which gears with the wheel 17. Each set of arms 8, 19 is braced together by rods 10, 20 respectively. Inlet and exhaust valves, actuated from the main shaft through two-to-one gearing, are mounted in the combustion chambers 3 which are each common to two pistons. Slots 23, through which the gudgeons pass, may be uncovered by the pistons and thus serve as exhaust ports. The engine may comprise one or more cylinder units.
