Abstract

420,860. Rotary internal - combustion engines. BISCHOF, B., Winterthur, and ESCHER WYSS MASCHINENFABRIKEN AKT.-GES., Escher Wyss Platz, Z³rich, both in Switzerland. Feb. 3, 1934, No. 3640. Convention date, Feb. 4, 1933. [Class 110 (ii)] The engine has vanes built up of plates 7, 7<1> and between them are arranged plates 8<1>, 8<2>, 8<3>. In the case of a compression - ignition engine, air under pressure is admitted through a port 12, compressed into a chamber 14 and oil is injected into it through a series of nozzles 15. Extra air is admitted through a port 13. Partial combustion takes place, and when a following cell of compressed air, between two vanes, passes the point 14<2>, the combustion is completed. The exhaust gases pass out through a port 11, and scavenging air is admitted when a vane passes the point 121. The exhaust may lead to a turbine. As an alternative process, fuel gas may be admitted through the port 13, compressed and fired in chamber 14 by means of a sparking plug. The inlet port 12 may be replaced by a number of ports displaced angularly, the first port being provided for scavenging air. Cooling water is admitted through a conduit 4 into the hollow rotor, and leaves through a conduit 5. Cooling of the casing is secured by passing water inside a guide-plate 19, the water then being conducted through the rotor and finally being led up the expansion side of the engine following the arrow D. A localized cooling conduit passes through the casing near the point 14<2>. The casing walls vary in thickness on the compression and expansion sides, as shown. The tips of the vanes, which are forced outwards by centrifugal force, are carried by shoes 24 sliding in grooves in races 25 which may be supported on balls or rollers. The vanes 8<1>, 8<2> may be pressed against the end covers 2, 21 by springs or gas pressure. Packing segments 10, between the vanes, may also be spring- pressed or under gas pressure. The inlet and exhaust ports may be formed in the end walls 2, 21. In place of a smooth periphery on the rotor, pockets may be scooped out between each vane assembly. In a modified arrangement the vanes are in one piece, the tips being supported in bushes allowed to rock in sliding shoes. The vanes, which are hollow, may have water hermetically sealed inside, or water flowing through the space.
