Abstract:
Reciprocating combustion engine with balancing and pre-compression, the combustion engine comprising:(a) at least one active cylinder having at least one piston, wherein a cylinder head of each active cylinder has at least one outlet valve and at least one opening for the inlet for air into the active cylinder; (b) at least one auxiliary cylinder having at least one piston, the auxiliary cylinder positioned at a right-angle to the active cylinder wherein each auxiliary cylinder is equipped with a cylinder head having a one-way valve for air inlet and a one-way valve for air outlet; (c) a throw of each piston of the relative cylinders positioned on a same drive shaft wherein the phase of the piston of the auxiliary cylinder precedes the phase of the piston of the active cylinder by 90 degrees, the phase difference operable to cause a double action characterized by the auxiliary cylinder acting as a balancing mechanism of the first order forces of inertia, and by a thrust crank mechanism acting as a pre-compressor to achieve a forced flushing of the active cylinder for the totality of flushing fluid, the double action allowing an increase specific power, use of the same thrust crank mechanism of the active cylinder and auxiliary cylinder for a petrol cycle or a diesel cycle, two- or four-stroke, engines, and operable to reach high speeds of rotation for a single cylinder engine; and (d) fuel supply parts operable to supply fuel to the active cylinder.
