Description

SUPERMOTIVE MACHINE SUMMARY An object of the present invention is to provide the Supermotive machine with a condensed pushing force in the midway position by means of employing a crank on any selected angle from 450 to 890 on the inclined shaft, relative to the longitudinal axis Y-Y.

Another feature of the present invention is the C-shaped arm combined with the crankshaft forming one rigid component.

Another feature of the invention is a dual inclined crankshaft in conjunction with a wobble bearing block connected together.

Another feature of the invention is to provide the air compressor with smaller motors thus saving on fuel and also resulting in a reduction of noise and exhaust gases into the atmosphere.

BACKGROUND AED FIELD This invention relates to an inclined crankshaft and high torque mechanism. All inclined cranks, past and present, are designed from 10 to 450 angle relative to the longitudinal axis. On this newly invented inclined crankshaft the angle of the crank can be arranged from 450 to 890 relative to the longitudinal axis x-x, for the condensation of pushing forces in the midway position.

This invention contains a dual inclined shaft, each mounted on its own bearing housing in the embodiment. The invention also contains a C-shaped arm crankshaft, which is distinguishable from all other known crankshafts. The C-shaped arm crankshaft works in conjunction with a wobble bearing housing block arranged with a push bar.

An experimental test employing an inclined shaft with a crank set at a 600 angle proved that, if 1 kg. of pressure is directed onto the C-shaped arm crank, then the pressure on the end of the inclined shaft fitted with a crank having the same stroke as the C-shaped arm crank will produce 2 kg. of pressure.

According to the present invention, there is provided an inclined crankshaft comprising a crank arranged at a wide angle relative to the longitudinal axis, arranged in conjunction with a C-shaped arm crankshaft.

A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows an inclined crankshaft with a demountable bolt.

Figure 2 shows the same component as above, turned half-way down but without the demountable bolt.

Figure 3 shows an inclined crankshaft with a crank set up at a higher degree.

Figure 4 is a sectional view of the Supermotive machine.

Figure 5 is a sectional view of fig. 4 on line A-A.

Figure 6 is a sectional view of fig. 4 on line B-B.

Figure 7 is a sectional view of an air comDressor.

Figures 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 are views of a modified radial key lock.

Figures 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 show a modified spring bolt fastener.

Fig. 1 comprises of a shaft 1, having an inclined lug 3, projecting from the shaft 1, and a demountable bolt 6, as a crank. The crank 6, is set at a wide 600 angle relative to the longitudinal axis Y-Y. The shaft is provided with a circular rim 2, for setting the shaft at a required position in the machine. A collar 5, on the lug is essential for contacting the inner race of the bearing to prevent friction between the lug and the wobble housing bearing block 12 (see fig. 4). The lug 3 has a step 4, which gives the C-shaped arm 11 room to swing (see fig. 6).

On fig. 2, is the same component as on fig. 1, but turned half-way down and it is shown without a connecting crank 6. It also shows the apperture 7, on a wide and rigid projecting lug 3.

Fig. 3 shows the same inclined shaft as on fig. 1 arranged with a crank forming one component and set up at a 75 angle from the longitudinal axis Y-Y. It has a powerful pushing force of 5.5 to 1. The inclined lug 3, slopes down from the shaft 1.

RESEARCH IS TURN OF THE REQUIRED SHAFT Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the Supermotive machine, comprising an embodiment 8, having internal combustion chambers I, II, III and IV, a C-shaped arm 11, which has combined conventional 4 stroke crankshafts on each end, positioned on vertical line axis X-X. Dual inclined crankshafts 1a and ib are aligned longitudinally across the vertical line axix X-X.

The two inclined crankshafts are arranged with one wobble bearing housing block 12, which are provided with bearings 33 and 34 and a connecting crank 6. The end of the crank 17, is secured with radial key locks 32 and 52, see figs. 9, 10, 11, 12 and 4. Pasts of the machine are assembled outside the embodiment 8. The assembled parts are slipped through the opening of the large bore 36, arranged on the embodiment, and the first inclined shaft 1a, is mounted into bearings 16 and 15, respectively. The said bearings are housed in the bearing housing boss 13, formed on the embodiment 8 for stability. The bearing 15 is prevented from sliding out by a cover plate 14.

The large bearing housing cover plate 38, provided with bearings 29 and 30 is mounted on the second inclined shaft 1b and fitted firmly into the large bore 36, and fastened with spring bolts 39, (see figs. 4, 13, 14, 15, 16 & 17). The two inclined crankshafts are rotatable in the bearings.

The wobble bearing housing block 12 is rotatable on the crank 6. The bearing 29 is prevented from sliding out by a cover plate 37.

Oil seal 28.

The C-shaped arm 11 (see fig. 4) is combined with two shafts 10 and 19 on which are arranged cranks 9, 41 and 21, 26 with two end shafts 23 and 44, connected with webs and forming one rigid component. Shafts 10, 19, 23 and 44 are relative to the axis X-X, and are mounted on bearings 35, 18, 25 and 42 respectively. Bearings 18 and 35 are arranged seated on lugs 31 and 40, formed on the embodiment 8. Bearings 25 and 42 are pressed into cover plates 24 and 43 respectively. If the reciprocating piston 49 with connecting rod 48 (see fig. 5) pushes the crank 9 downwards, then the piston 46 will automatically be lifted upwards, with respect that the C-shaped arm crankshaft will rock in the bearings instead of rotating. Cranks 21 and 26 function in the same way. A commonly known connecting rod is provided with bearing 61 (see fig. 5).The reciprocating pistons, connecting rods and the C-shaped crankshaft can be assembled outside the embodiment. Readily assembled parts are slipped through the large apperture 47, shown on fig. 5.

The C-shaped arm is mounted on push bar 51 and the crankshaft on two lugs 31 and 40, and fastened with well known bearing clamps 54. The push bas bearing (not shown) is secured with radial key locks 32 and 52. Be awing cover plate 24 is fitted onto the upper end shaft 23 and a bore 22, shown on fig. 4. Bearing cover plate 43 is fitted onto the lower end shaft 44 and a bore 45.

Fig. 5 shows a sectional view of fig. 4 on line A-A. The large rectangular cover plate 50 has multiple cylinder blocks which are mounted on the reciprocating pistons and onto the large rectangular apperture 47 of the embodiment and fastened with bolts 53. The oil sump is divided by two lugs 31 and 40 into three portions 55, 57 and 60. Lug 31 is provided with multiple holes 56, and lug 40 is provided with multiple holes 59 for drainage purposes (see fig. 6j. The embodiment 8 is also provided with bolt 58, for drainage purposes.

The two rigid lugs formed with the embodiment can withstand torsional forces. This also applies to circular bearing cover plates 24 and 43.

Fig. 6 illustrates a sectional view of fig. 4 on line I-. The C-shaped arm swings from a to c, at a 120 . The web 27, with the three remaining webs should be considered as a yoke and the crank 26 including the other three cranks as a push pin (see application No. 8924401/6). The highest pushing force on the inclined crankshaft is when the C-shaped arm is at the "b" position and the lowest at "a" and "c" positions. An experimental test proved that the pushing force on the inclined crankshaft from "a" to "b" rapidly increases, and is twice as high at "b" position than on a a conventional crankshaft. The pushing force decreases from "b" to "a" or from "b" to "c" faster than on a conventional crankshaft.A crank 62 is mounted on the end of the inclined crankshaft 1 a, having the same stroke as the C-shaped arm crank 26, (see experimental data on page 2, with an inclined crank set at 600).

Fig. 7 shows a sectional view of an air compressor comprising a piston 64 contained in the compression chamber 65 connected to a slotted pushrod 77.

The other end of the slotted push rod is connected to the second piston 72. The two pistons are secured to a slotted push rod by a pin 70. A crank 62, see fig. 6, fits into the bore 78 arranged on the sliding block 79, see fig. 7. When the crank 62 turns, the sliding block 79 moves up and down in the slot 80 pushing the slotted push rod 77 with the two pistons 64 and 72 sideways in a reciprocating manner. When the C-shaped arm 11 is on "b" position, see fig. 6, then the crank 62 with sliding block 79 and the slotted push rod 77 will also be at "b" position, see fig. 7. At this moment, the piston 72 compresses the air twice as much as a conventional compressor powered by a conventional motor, because the pushing forces are concentrated on the midway area at "b" position.The movable parts of two pistons, the slotted push rod and the sliding block are contained in the housing body 63, closed with cover plate 71. Cover plate 71 has a compression chamber for a piston 72. Holes 69 and 76 on the compression chambers are provided for the reduction of air compression when the C-shaped arm 11 is at "a" or "c" positions, because the power of the Supermotive machine is at its lowest for air compression. Therefore, the pistons should be made of greater diametrical dimension, to enable the compression of a greater amount of air into an air container through an outlet valve 74 or 68. Air inlet valve 67 is fitted on the cover plate 66 and inlet valve 75 is fitted on the cover plate 73. The cover plates are secured with spring bolts 39, see figs. 7, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17.

The C-shaped arm 11 controls the movement of the slotted push rod 77 from "å" to "b" then "b" to "c" and vice versa.

Fig. 8 shows the end 17 of a crank 6 which is arranged with one groove 80.

A radial key 32 is fitted into a wide and deep groove. A second radial key 52 is shown on fig. 9.

Fig. 10 illustrates a part of a connecting rod provided with two radial keys 52 and 32. A ring 82, shown on figs. 10 and 11, is mounted on the two radial keys preventing them from falling out. A circular clip 83, shown on figs. 10 and 12, is fitted onto the two radial key undercuts 81 preventing the ring 82 from falling out. The width of the mounted ring 82 must have a slack which prevents the strain of the circulars clip.

Fig. 13 shows a bolt 39. A pivot 85 and a groove 84 are arranged on top of the hexagon bolt for the wired clip 87, shown on fig. 15. The bolt is also provided with one or more holes 86, for drilling guidance purposes on the tightened part. When the bolt is tightened, then a small hole is drilled through any of the holes on the tightened part. One end 88 of the wired clip 87 is inserted into a drilled hole (see fig. 16).

The top end 87, clips onto the groove 84, shown on figs. 13 and 17.

The embodied wire clip 88 into the tightened part, trill prevent the bolt from unlocking under vibrating conditions.
