Description

NEW-GENERATION ENGINE CONSTRUCT WHICH PROVIDES FUEL

CONSERVATION AND HIGH POWER

Technical Field

The invention relates to a new-generation engine construct which provides fuel conservation and high power.

Prior Art

Following their invention, internal combustion engines have shown a very rapid development and secured a very significant position in the industry. Internal combustion engines usually use petrol products as energy resource. This has led to a search for both alternative energy resources and achieving low fuel consumption and high performance characteristics thanks to advancements in technology.

Internal combustion engines rely on the movement of the part referred to as the piston by pressure which occurs as a result of burning fuel in a limited space in the engine referred to as the combustion chamber. It is possible to classify internal combustion engines based on fuel type: Otto engines (petrol engines), Diesel engines, and Seilinger engines (partly similar to Otto engines and partly similar to Diesel engines).

In the prior art, the crank of the internal combustion engine receives the initial acceleration with the engine start as a result of suction, compression, combustion, and exhaust steps, and turns the linear movement of the piston in the cylinder into rotational movement through the connecting rod. This engine type is widely used today.

In the engine type specified above, clean air is sucked into the intake air duct and the fuel is injected from the fuel injection nozzle, which is located at the end of the intake air duct, and the cylinder is filled with fuel-air mixture. An almost homogeneous fuel- air mixture is compressed in the uppermost part of the cylinder, which is referred to as the combustion chamber, and ignited by the sparking plug. Upon ignition, the cylinder rapidly expands and in parallel with this expansion, the piston is pushed down, and the crank-connecting rod mechanism connected to the piston is activated. The connecting rod is also known as the piston rod. The crankshaft is a shaft which provides the momentum necessary for the vehicle’s movement. The connecting rod mechanism connected to the piston transmits the linear movement that it receives from the piston to the crankshaft as rotational movement. The crankshaft is connected to the transmission, and allows for adjusting the power transmitted to wheels.

In the prior art, the crankshaft is the part which allows for converting the linear movement from the piston to rotational movement. The linear driving force from the piston or pistons contacts with protrusions of different shapes on the crankshaft to obtain the rotational movement.

All engines in the prior art use crankshafts. Although the crankshaft produces the entire rotational movement in the engine, it has certain disadvantages.

The primary disadvantage of the crankshaft is the necessity to produce it with flawless workmanship. It must be cast as a single piece in a way that it will not cause friction. This makes the crankshaft the most expensive part of the engine. As such, the crankshaft is the most significant part which determines the cost of the engine.

Another disadvantage of the crankshaft is the friction that occurs during the rotation and the consequent loss of power. This loss of power increases fuel consumption, while decreasing the performance of the vehicle.

Another issue in the prior art is high friction and the fact that the mixture consisting of chemicals and air combusted in the engine cannot transmit all of the movement. Only 20% to 30% of the movement can be transmitted.

Therefore, it is necessary to create a new-generation engine construct due to above mentioned disadvantages and inadequacy of solutions for existing problems. Short Description of The Invention

The present invention relates to a new-generation engine construct which responds to all above mentioned needs, eliminates all disadvantages, and offers some additional advantages.

The primary purpose of the invention is to offer a more powerful, smaller, and more efficient engine.

Another purpose of the invention is the transmission of the linear movement which occurs as a result of the combustion of the chemical-air mixture to the shaft as rotational movement.

This feature is directly related with fuel conservation. The engine in question allows for producing high power, while ensuring low fuel consumption.

Another purpose of the invention is to ensure lower carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide emission. Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide emission will be lower since it is directly proportional to fuel consumption.

Another purpose of the invention is to ensure smaller dimensions. Compared to engines in the prior art, it will occupy much smaller space. This will allow for a lower vehicle weight and smaller space occupied by the engine within the hood. Decreasing the space occupied by the engine within the hood will allow for easier work in cases such as repair or replacement, thereby decreasing the time spent.

Another purpose of the invention is to allow for a higher number of pistons. The engine in question requires at least two pistons; however, the number can be increased in multiples of two such as 4, 5, 8, 10, or 12.

Another purpose of the invention is to decrease the amount of power wasted for pistons, which is a problem encountered in engines with more than two pistons, thereby increasing the power output. In the prior art, engines which contain a crankshaft and 4 or more pistons are not connected with a single shaft, which leads to compression of one piston when the other piston springs. This causes the engine waste power for every other piston.

The invention will decrease the amount of fuel used by solving above mentioned problems and adding features which improve the engine efficiency. This will ensure lower petrol consumption and decreased dependency on petrol.

We believe that the engine explained in this patent application will contribute to the world economy, and if it replaces low-efficiency engines which contribute to the global warming problem, it will decrease the negative effects caused by engines in the prior art.

The Implementation of The Invention to The Industry

The invention may be used in automobiles, provide a solution to engine-related needs in military technology, vehicles used in agricultural applications, and similar fields. The invention may also be used in various machines that depend on an engine.

The new-generation engine, which is the subject of this patent application, may essentially be used in every field where internal combustion engines are used to provide rotational movement.

In this detailed description,“the new-generation engine construct which provides fuel conservation and high power” is described only to ensure a better understanding of the subject and without causing any limiting effects.

The engine (1 ) is composed of:

• The wall (2) which surrounds the gear (3) and contains at least one protrusion 1 (2.1 ) and at least one indent 1 (2.2),

• The gear (3) which contains at least one protrusion 2 (3.1 ) which matches up to protrusion 1 (2.1 ) and at least one indent 2 (3.2) which matches up to indent 1 (2.2),

• At least two pistons (4), one at each end of the wall (2) which receives the pushing movement and transmits the movement from one piston (4) to the other piston (4),

• At least one spring (5) adjacent to each piston (4) which balances the pushing movement performed by the piston (4),

• The shaft (6) which receives the rotational movement transmitted by the gear (3) and the wall (2) after turning the linear movement coming from the piston (6) into rotational movement.

The wall (2) is a part which surrounds the gear (3) and contains a piston (4) at each end. Both ends of the wall (2) are designed in a way that they will contact with the gear’s (3) surface which does not contain indent 2 (3.2) and protrusion 2 (3.1 ). Parallel sides of the wall (2) allows for the gear’s (3) movement from one end to the other end. Parallel sides of the wall (2) which face each other contain at least one protrusion 1 (2.2) and at least one indent 1 (2.2).

The gear (3) contains at least one indent 2 (3.2) and at least one protrusion 2 (3.1 ). A part of the gear’s (3) surface does not contain indent 2 (3.2) and protrusion 2 (3.1 ). The gear (3) allows for turning linear movement into rotational movement. A piston (4) is located at each end of the wall (2). The pistons (4) move the wall (2) upon combustion. The wall’s (2) movement from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other piston (4) compresses the piston (4) on the receiving end.

The spring (5) balances and slows down the pushing movement performed by the pistons (4). The spring (5) can be position at different points in the invention.

The shaft (6) is the part to which the movement is transmitted. The shaft (6) allows for obtaining rotational movement.

The engine (1 ) works as follows:

If the engine (1 ) has two pistons (4) as in Figure 1 :

The combustion of the fuel-air mixture coming from valves pushes one of the pistons (4). When one of the pistons (4) is pushed, the wall (2) moves from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other piston (4). The wall’s (2) movement from one side to the other triggers the rotational movement of the gear (3). The gear’s (3) travel from one side to the other is 180 degrees. The rotational movement of the gear (3) is provided by the contact of protrusion 2 (3.1 ) and indent 2 (3.2) positioned on the gear with indent 1 (2.2) and protrusion 1 (2.1 ) positioned on the wall (2) With each movement of the wall (2), indent 1 (2.2) and protrusion 2 (2.1 ) positioned on the wall (2) and protrusion 2 (3.1 ) and indent 2 (3.2) positioned on the gear (3) are displaced. This allows for the movement of the gear (3) to turn the linear movement transmitted to the wall (2) by the piston (4) into rotational movement. At the same time, the linear movement of the wall (2) creates pressure on the spring (6), compresses the piston (4), and causes bursting. The piston (4) moves to the other direction upon bursting and a pushing action occurs once again. Thus, the constant pushing action of the pistons (4) occurs in a reciprocative manner. This linear movement turns into rotational movement by the 180 degree movement of the gear (3) from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other. A complete lap of 360 degrees is completed two 180 degree movements of the gear (3) from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other, which continues in a constant manner. Unlike the crankshaft, this system transmits almost all of the linear movement to the shaft (6), which is its most significant advantage.

If the engine (1 ) has four or more pistons (4) as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3:

The combustion of the fuel-air mixture coming from valves pushes one of the pistons (4). When one of the pistons (4) is pushed, the wall (2) moves from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other piston (4). The wall’s (2) movement from one side to the other triggers the rotational movement of the gear (3). The gear’s (3) travel from one side to the other is 180 degrees. The rotational movement of the gear (3) is provided by the contact of protrusion 2 (3.1 ) and indent 2 (3.2) positioned on the gear with indent 1 (2.2) and protrusion 1 (2.1 ) positioned on the wall (2) With each movement of the wall (2), indent 1 (2.2) and protrusion 2 (2.1 ) positioned on the wall (2) and protrusion 2 (3.1 ) and indent 2 (3.2) positioned on the gear (3) are displaced. This allows for the movement of the gear (3) to turn the linear movement transmitted to the wall (2) by the piston (4) into rotational movement. At the same time, the linear movement of the wall (2) creates pressure on the spring (6), compresses the piston (4), and causes bursting. The piston (4) moves to the other direction upon bursting and a pushing action occurs once again. Thus, the constant pushing action of the pistons (4) occurs in a reciprocative manner. If the engine (1 ) contains 4 or more pistons (4), the fourth piston (4) is compressed while the first one is bursting. Meanwhile, it compresses the second piston (4) in the opposite side; however, the second piston (4) exhausts at this time. When the fourth piston (4) bursts, the second piston (4) is compressed, and the first piston (4) exhausts. Thus, the engine (1 ) works in a four-stroke manner.

The operational method of the engine can be described as follows:

• The combustion of the fuel-air mixture coming from valves pushes one of the pistons (4),

• When one of the pistons (4) is pushed, the wall (2) moves from the direction of one piston (4) to the direction of the other piston (4),

• With each movement of the wall (2), indent 1 (2.2) and protrusion 2 (2.1 ) positioned on the wall (2) and protrusion 2 (3.1 ) and indent 2 (3.2) positioned on the gear (3) are displaced, and the wall’s (2) movement from one side to the other triggers the rotational movement of the gear (3),

• The linear movement of the wall (2) creates pressure on the spring (6), compresses the piston (4), and causes bursting,

• The bursting action on the side of the compressed piston (4) causes it to move to the other direction,

• These movements are repeated continuously, and a rotational movement is obtained on the shaft (6).
