Abstract

168,093. Montgrand, L. de. April 13, 1920. Rotary and oscillating cylindrical valves.-A rotary engine of the revolving cylinder and reciprocating piston type is arranged for expansive working. A single admission valve and a single exhaust valve in conjunction with ports in the cylinders covered by the pistons controls the distribution to all the cylinders. Other valves located in the passages connecting the cylinders are rotated through 90‹ when it is desired to reverse the engine. Admission takes place at the cylinders A' only, and exhaust from the cylinders B, B<1> by ports X, as controlled respectively by distributors 2, 9. Fig. 1 shows the engine set for rotation in the direction indicated by the arrow. The inlet port commences to open when the roller 20 actuated by the cylinder A<1> is at the point I and is fully open when the point H is reached, at which the stroke of the piston commences. During the stroke the piston uncovers a port leading to the cylinder A, but the piston in this cylinder does not move until the first piston has completed its stroke on account of the shape of the cam surface. The inlet port may remain open if desired until the point C is reached. The piston in A' then remains stationary over the concentric part CD of the cam, and the working stroke of A takes place. The steam passes similarly in succession to the cylinders B', B and is finally exhausted from these cylinders at the moment when the piston in the cylinder B has just completed its working stroke and that in B' is about to commence its return stroke. The volume initially admitted to the small cylinder A' is thus expanded to the volume of the two larger cylinders. Admission to the cylinder A<1> takes place a second time at the point E, and so on successively. By rotating all the valves, such as 3, controlling the connecting passages between the cylinders, through 90‹ the engine may be reversed. Figs 5 and 6 show the arrangement of the distributing valves 2, 9.
