Abstract

840,047. Free-piston engines; starting. JANICKE, H. Aug. 26, 1957 [Aug. 24, 1956], No. 26822/57. Classes 7(2) and 7(5). A free-piston engine is supercharged by compressed air supplied by a compressor 1 driven by an exhaust driven turbine 13. Compressed air from the compressor is conducted to outer return chambers and is used for starting the engine. As shown an electric motor 29 is used to drive the compressor at starting. The compressor supplies air to piping 8, 9. When the pressure reaches a predetermined value a valve 16 opens and the air can operate a piston 21 which opens valves 25, 251 controlling the supply of starting air to the return chambers 28, 28<SP>1</SP>. A pressure retaining valve 14 is included in the exhaust passage 12. It is stated that the pressure retaining valve is inoperative during starting. It may be omitted if desired. The engine drives pairs of hydraulic pumps 4, 41. It is possible to use hydraulic or pneumatic starting means instead of the electric motor 29. When using an electric motor the shaft of the motor is displaced and its pinion is brought into engagement with a gear 31 as in motor vehicles.
