Abstract

1,252,258. Refrigerating. UNITED KING- DOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY. 13 Jan., 1969 [19 Jan., 1968], No. 3128/68. Heading F4H. [Also in Division F1] A Stirling engine, which may operate as a refrigerator, comprises variable volume chambers H, C intercommunicating through a regenerator 4, there being incorporated a flexible mechanical structure 1, 2 for permitting movement of the walls of the chambers to provide variation in the volume thereof, the flexible structure being capable of repetitive deflection for the life of the engine at the working temperature. Non-positive coupling means is provided between side portions of the chambers, the side portions being movable by virtue of the flexible structure. The coupling means transmits force for maintaining reciprocating gas displacement between the chambers and the operating components of the engine are tuned to resonate in correct phase relationship in response to the forces transmitted by the coupling means (see also Division F1). Two Stirling engines of the above type may be mounted back to back with their mechanical terminals connected together to provide a heat pump.
