Abstract

987,687. Hot gas engines. PHILIPS' GLOEILAMPENFABRIEKEN N.V. June 19, 1961 [June 22, 1960], No. 22050/61. Headings F1M and F1S. [Also in Division F4] In a hot gas engine comprising two intercoupled parallel crank-shafts arranged to rotate in synchronism in opposite directions and with the same angular velocity, each of the crank-shafts co-operating with two connecting rod mechanisms located substantially one on each side of a plane containing the axes of the crank-pins, one pair of the connecting rod mechanisms located substantially on one side of the plane being coupled to a first set of reciprocating engine elements comprising a piston and the other pair of connecting rod mechanisms located substantially on the other side of the plane being coupled to a second set of reciprocating engine elements comprising a piston one set comprises or both sets comprise more than one piston. In Fig. 1 connecting rods 42 and 43 are coupled to the crank-pin 37 and connecting rods 44 and 45 are coupled to the crank-pin of the right hand crank-shaft. It can be seen that the pair of connecting rods 42 and 44 is located substantially on one side of the plane Y-Y whereas the pair of connecting rods 43, 45 is located substantially on the opposite side of this plane. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a four cylinder machine .A three cylinder embodiment is also described. One or more cylinders may be provided on both sides of the driving gear i.e. also below the crosshead 51 in Fig. 1. The number of cylinders provided on one side of the driving gear may differ from the number provided on the other side. The machine may be arranged with the axis of the cylinders horizontal. One or some of the cycles may supply mechanical energy and the other cycle or cycles absorb mechanical energy for example as in a refrigerator or heat pump. An ancilliary piston may for example be the piston of a compressor for providing compression of the medium used in the thermodynamic cycles, the piston of a liquid pump or the piston of a compressor for starting air.
