Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken in the plane of the line B B -of'Fig.1 looking in the direction of the arrows and Fig. 4 is a detail view, on an enlarged scale, showing the construction of the inlet-valve and its adjacent parts.

the inner cylinder-head, which ring comprises two halfsections 18 19. The space between the inner ring ,18 19 and the outer ring 11 13 is divided into two chambers bypartition-flanges 18* 19*, similarly to the space between the inner ring, 14 15 and the outer ring 10 12. i
The upper chambers between the inner and outer rings serve as a primary inlet-chamber 20 and a secondary inlet-chamber 21, while the lower chambers between these rings serve as a primary exhaust-chamber22 and a secvided for the secondary exhaust-chamber 23. The'primaryexhaust-chamber 22 is in 0. en communication with the secondary in et-. chamber 21 through a passage 26 by means of a pipe-coupling on the exterior of the outer .ondary exhaust-chamber- 23. A suitable valve-inlet 24 isprovided for the primaryinlet-chamber 20, and 'a suitable outlet 25 is pro- IlIlgS; The space within the inner ring 14 15. is divided into a'pair of piston-chambers b r means of a piston ,fixed to the shaft 1, whic piston is shown as comprising two disks 27 28 secured together and having flanges 29 30 keyed to the shaft 1. The space within the inner ring 18 19 is also divided into a pair of piston-chambers by a piston comprising two disks 31 32, secured together and havin flanges 33 34 keyed to the shaft 1.
The piston in the space Within the inner ring 1415, which Idesignate the primary piston, is provided with annular series of piston-wings, leaving ports of the desired area between thewings. In the present instance I have shown the primary piston as being provided with two annular series of piston-wings 35 36, projecting from the disk 27, and two annular. series 37 -38, projecting from the disk 28. An annular series of stationary wings 39, carried by the cylinder-head 4, are located between the-annular series of piston-wings'35 36, and an annular series of stationary wings 40, projecting from the plates 6 of the inner cylinder-head, are interposedbetween the series of piston-win s 37 38. These wings are arranged opposite y to the piston-wings. partition extends across the space between the. inner annular series of piston-wings 36 for dividing the space into two chambers 41 A 42. The lower part of the chamber 42 and the up er part of the chamber 41 are open,
while t eupper partof the chamber 42 and the lowerpart of the chamber 41 are provided with several win 43 44, res ectively, for giv 4.. e I 7 ing direction to t e motive uid for causing 7 upper section of the inner ring 14 15.
divided to that hereinbefore described.
The piston located withinthe space formed byv the inner ring 18 19, which lcall the secondary piston, is provided with oppositely-arranged annular series of pistonwings. In the present instance I have shown two annular series of pistonwings 45 46, proj ecting from the diskBl, and two annular series of piston-wings 47 48, projecting from the disk 32. Annular series of stationary wings 49 50 project from the inner and outer cylinder-heads and are interposed between the annular series of piston-wings 45 46 and 47 48, respectively, which wings are arranged in the. opposite direction to. the piston-wings.
The central space formed inside the annular series of piston-wings 46 is divided by a partition 51 into two central piston-chambers 52 53. The upper part of the chamber 52 and the lower part of the chamber 53 are left open, and the lower part of the chamber 52 and upper part of the chamber 53v are provided with. several wings 54 55, respectively, for giving direction to the motive fluid. It is to be understood that the central space formed ,by the inner annular series of piston wings 48 is dividedsimilarly to thespace within the annular series of pistonwings 46, as just above described.
The motive fluid is fed from the primary inlet-chamber into engagement with the outer annular series of piston-wings 37' through a number of diagonal ports 56 in lt fie e lower section 14 of this inn er ring is provided with a series of wings 57, arranged to direct the motive fluid from the lower half of the. annular series ofpiston-wings 35 37into the primary exhaust-chamber 22. From thence the motive fluid passes through the passage, 26 into the secondary inlet-chamber 21. Themotive fluid passes from this secondaryinletchamber 2l-into engagement withthe outer annular series of piston-wings 4547 throu h diagonal ports 58 in the upper section 19.0f t e in'ner ring 18 19. Thelower section 18 of the said ring is provided with a plurality of openings 59, arranged to permit the. motive. fluid to escape from the-lower half of the piston wings 47 into .the secondary exhaustchamber 23, from whence the motive fluid passes out through the exhaust-outlet 25.
- The, sides of. these. piston-0ha1nbersare.
flared toward thevshaft, so as tQ-QiVBdncreased area to these chambers .52 53.:
An auxi'iary exhaust-port 60*leads-from.
with a valve 61, arranged to open and closethe same, as may be desired. A. by-pass 62 leads from the valved inlet 24 to the exhaustoutlet 25. which by-passis provided with. a
cock 63 for openingand closing the same.
The manner in which the ports 56 are formed in the upper section 15 of the inner ring 14 15 is as follows: A band 4 is located on the periphery of the section 15, which band has secured thereto inwardly-extended wedge-shaped blocks 65, the inclined surface of each block forming one wall of the port 56, the ring being cut away to permit the insertion of the block into the same.
The inlet-valve is constructed and operated as follows: This inlet-valve 66 is arranged to slide longitudinally and is curved to fit the periphery of the section 15 of the inner ring. This valve is provided with a plurality of alternating long and. short cutofis 67 68, so arranged that when the valve is at the limit of its movement in one direction all of the ports 56 will be open and when moved toward the limit of its movement in the otherdirection every'alternate port will be closed,and finally all of the ports will be closed. The means which I have shown for operating this valve comprises a shaft 69, which extends into the primary inlet-chambier 20 and is there provided with a pinion 70, which meshes with a rack 71 on the valve. In the accompanying drawings 1 have shown agovernor controlled by the speed of the engine-shaft for operating the valve 66, so that as thespeed of the engine-shaft increases the inlet-valve 66 will be moved in a direction to gradually close the ports 56, and thus prevent the shaft from racing.
By the construction of the cylinders and pistons as herein set forth I am enabled to produce an engine in which the pressures are counterbalanced in the different piston chambers and at the sametime )rovide a structure in which the motive fluid after it has been directed inwardly from the periphery to the center of the piston-chambeitwill,
be directed outwardly from the centertov the peri hery again without causing the motive flui and without unduly confining the motive fluid. Furthern'iore, by providing thopiston with oppositely-arranged annular series of wings and causing the piston to divide each cylinder into separate piston-chambers the advisable result of balancing the pressures is obtained by a .very simple arrangement.
- What I claim is.
1. In a-t11rbine-engiue,- a rotary shaft, a.
