## Background
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates at field of rotary internal combustion engines, also is related with pneumatic engines.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
Nagata and Cobb, (U.S. Pat. No. 6,651,609) in recently few past years has itemized rotary engines, especially the Wankel engine, about its disadvantages, which are: vibration problems, heat problems, friction, mix wasted, difficult to build, inspect and maintain.
In general for all types of engines, is possible to add comments about another disadvantages as:
Almost of designs do not improves torsion, especially at low RPM, that implies work at high RPM regimen, with flywheels for kinetic energy storing, leading fuel waste when variation happens in acceleration.
No possibility to change compression ratio, that characteristic is wanted as altitude, load regimen, fuel class and combustion type.
Eccentricity and asymmetrical forms, typical in those engines leads to more fuel consumption, because compensatory mass is required; creating more vibrations and acceleration problems also.
Optimal function requires high RPM regime on those engines and mostly applications works satisfactory at low RPM.
Best power/weight ratio is hard to obtain, without increasing in the moving mass, heat and shaft length.
Need of gears and flywheels increase manufacturing costs, and also increase the engine overall weight.
Typically they are closed designs, purely mechanical solutions that do not allow changes. Native flexibility scarce do no let obtain other improvements, as hydrogen fuel, compressed air, and neither other types of combustion can be used. Use of modern resources as electricity, electronic, and computing have been very limited, because those developments were incorporated in adapted form, at existing designs that are from decades ago.
In transportation use, braking energy recovery is very difficult and not possible in some cases. Designers vastly majority target was getting more powerful engines, disregarding fuel efficiency and ecological considerations.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION
Accordingly, the previous disadvantages are remedied in my invention. Several objects and advantages of the invention are:
Best torsion at any load and RPM, by near tangential point of explosion force application. Dynamically variable air/fuel mix compression; at initial atmospheric pressure for adjust as requirements of combustion type, fuel class, load conditions, temperature and barometric pressure.
Engine totally concentric and symmetric form; with only one major moving part in each module, with very low reciprocating mass and short range. Plus a reduced internal friction, results in a truly fuel saver machine. This device is disposed to reduce main internal friction, manually or electrically operated; let use rotor as part of an electric motor, giving in transport, recovery energy braking capability. It can also recover energy in form of compressed air.
High power/weight ratio, capable of producing multiple Otto cycles in every rotation, increasing those cycles exponentially when numbers of modules increase. Power increase adds low weight and volume of the engine and without increasing length of drive shaft, self-cooling avoid heat problems. Low RPM engine and vibration free, brings a durable device and adequate for use of hydrogen. Separated compression and expansion chambers, makes possible to use the heat of compression to avoid freezing when use compressed air as external energy source.
Best acceleration time, without flywheel and with development of Otto cycles in two times fashion. Fast exhausted gases evacuation means a more cool and less contaminant engine. Tuned port let use exhaust backpressure, bringing fuel savings and the staged output keep noise at minimum. Volumetric asymmetric ratio between compression and expansion chambers uses better the power of explosion and let a less violent output of exhausted gases.
The device is designed for a more efficient and integrated use of computer, electronics and electricity, providing more fast time response, more versatility and more accurate control. High reliability for aircraft use because few critical parts, low fuel consumption, high power density, vibration free and smooth torsion modulation.
Compression sharp peak, because of an almost wedge form of the chamber and fast switching to the expansion chamber makes adequate for auto ignition combustion, and also the mix compression at atmospheric pressure, or higher, can enable a homogeneous charge compression ignition.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
These engine works based on modules operating at the periphery of the rotor, each one consisting mainly of three chambers and one gate (9). and capable of using technology improvements in the areas of computing, electricity and electronics. A three module preferred embodiment is illustrated in the simplified expanded view in FIG. (1) and another cut view of the rotor inside the stator in FIG. (5) II-II, showing the main components.
Basically the engine has a stator (1), its form seems as a toroid of rectangular cross section (FIG. 18 cut VIII-VIII) where inside has solenoid gate valves (9), combustion chambers (8), and tuned ducts exhaust ports (1 0). Also contains all sort of standard parts used In Otto engines, such as sparkplugs (not showed), injectors (15), sensors (not showed) and a circular heat radiator (2).
It has a concentric rotor, reel resembling, in a short height cylinder form, with the wall formed by ramps (4), as vanes forms; jointed by a packer (25) and a spring (17) at the expansion chambers (5), (FIG. 31). Those chambers (5) also form the wall of the cylinder, and has a form of sectors of a toroid of rectangular cross section (FIG. 28), with a sort of channels or cavities in the exterior wall, with arch form grooves (312) in both plane sides, with mountings (23,24) attached at the cylinder ends (3).
It also has internal cavities (262), couples (16), hoses (282). elbows (281) and radiant external fins (12) for cooling system. The outside central part of the ends (3), near the shaft (6) Is disposed for mounting electrical parts (not showed) (as starter, generator or alternator). Mounting bolt (21) of the ramps (4) has space (24A) inside for a temperature control sensor (not showed). Small external cavity (261) nests the detach camshaft (14), all threaded parts are supported at the ends (3) with nuts (not showed). Ends (3) outside, supports with legs (211), the radiator fins (12), couple (212) and elbow (213).
FIG. 36 shows the rotor assembled (using holes (205)), with the drive shaft (6), with cylinder wall components (4,5) removed. The shaft (6) is a concentric supportive tube, perforated in the inside part between the ends (3) of the rotor for air input and air/fuel mix return, one end is closed (7) and the other is loosely coupled at the air filter (26), supports a cooling water pump (not showed) a small generator (not showed), and a pulley for drive parts fixed at the base (not showed). More complex version could be support an electric or turbo charger, modifying the filter (26) fixed at base holes (33), (not showed). Or also could use the plug (7) to put a concentric hydraulic coupling seal, to use only a stationary cooler pump (not showed).
Engine base (13) has mounting holes (31). Holes (32) and bearings (11) keeps aligned the rotor inside the stator (1), also with screws (34); with plenty space to support auxiliary stationary parts (not showed), (as electric generator, air compressor, pumps and cooling parts for the stator (1)). There are also, flexible sector seals (19), for the edges joint of rotor and stator (1), (in FIG. 16) and flexible air ducts (18) for mix air/fuel re-circulation of any leak, returning toward the air filter (26) through a hose (362). That hose or flexible duct, serves as used lubricant storage also.
Simplified drawings FIG. (39), A, B, C and D (presented as rough sketch illustrations) show rotor various different angular positions in a module, and describe the working cycles of the engine.
FIG. 39 shows last Otto cycle finishing; exhaust gases going out, gate (116) is next to fast input inside the rotor, toward ramp (4). Inside solenoid gate valve (9), percussion core (131) is going down to hammering the gate core (121). Fuel injector (15) begins to work.
FIG. (39) A, show the motion of the rotor shifting the ramp (4) and the sliding gate (116), creating a virtual compression chamber, causes that the volume of air and the fuel vaporized by the injector (15) in that chamber decreases (FIG. 39B), leading the compressed mix towards the combustion chamber (8), (FIG. 39C).
The firing, by the spark plug (not showed) triggered by the signal of reluctance sensor (117), happens when the rotor movement aligns the first cavity (252) of the expansion chamber (5), (FIG. 39D) and sequentially receives the force of the explosion, driving the rotor, and then exhausted gases are conveyed at the escape port (10).
The seal (115) of the gate, avoids any leakage toward the ramp (4), but after the first cavity (252) passes, the gate is pulled out, saving unnecessary wear during the time when expansion chamber (4) is present and return rapidly at initial condition of fig (39) ready for next cycle. When gate (115) is on ramp (4) toothed end (FIG. 39D), happens residual compression relief through slots.
Otto cycles occur in compression and aspiration fashion first, expansion/exhaust develops almost simultaneous after, that illustrates that the engine operates in two times.
Tuned exhaust ports holes (109) let create a backpressure, and gives additional impulse at the rotor. There is a rough check valve (91), with spring (96) screwed at the stator (1) wall, calibrated at rotor internal pressure preventing mix escapes at the atmosphere.
Because Physics defines Torsion as the result of the force multiplied by distance at point of rotation, easy conclusion is that at any force value of explosion applied near the tangential multiplied by the value of rotor radius, will be near maximum theoretical torsion value.
The symmetrical geometry and concentricity, torsion soft modulation (because explosions high frequency), and stepped attenuation of exhausted gases, brings a device with few vibrations, less noise and best of all, without considerable internal mechanical energy loses.
Increments in modules quantity, adding few additional mass, leads at exponential growing of number of explosions per rotation, giving best power/weight ratio, without any increase of drive shaft length.
Computer controlled gate let dynamically compression ratio variation for instantaneous correction upon load conditions, velocity, acceleration, fuel type, temperature and barometric pressure. That is accomplished changing the velocity of the gate inlet, touching the ramp at different points.
Another computer fundamental function is keep at minimum the differential of temperature between stator and rotor, which has disposed space inside in one of the ramp bolt, for a temperature sensor (not showed), that can be wired, or wireless electronics best. Computer adjustments take place in stator cooling system or both stator and rotor. Also computer takes over another traditional tasks as fuel injection, firing time control, rotor position and angular velocity.
That manner is possible to keep engine thermal expansion between design parameters. And that class of expansion also is absorbed by the re-circulation duct (18) flexibility and the self-adjust characteristic of the expansion chamber, and also contributes sector seals, gate lateral seals (114) and spring (142), (supported with seal holder (141)). Additional computer control is possible electrically acting over spring (96), (fixed at stator with small screw (95)), to dynamically modify the exhaust check valve port (91) pressure, in case the engine use turbo or electric charger (not showed). Air pressurized injector (not showed) at the combustion chamber ventilates the residual gases inside space (66), at near end of the expansion time (across any hole (62)).
These low RPM engine can use a variety of fuels, very adequate for hydrogen and gives excellent isothermal approach control, using compressed air as an external energy supply, taking advantage of compression cycle heat.
In transportation use, braking energy recovery is possible electrically, using a central generator at rotor and also is possible in form of compressed air.
In last case of compressed air will be necessary to modify the combustion chamber air injector system (not showed), to avoid waste the pressure from the virtual compression chamber, before the expansion chambers aligns (not showed).
The exposed toward atmosphere rotor concept, let use cooling system, and also using it as fan for stator cooler and no limits thermal expansion, avoiding stalls. Another concept: slid able mountings (23,24) of expansion chamber (5), also let self adjust, compensates thermal changes, compensates wear, and keeps centrifugal forces at minimum effect.
Relief valves (22) inside the expansion chambers (5) are provided for misfiring; the union spring (17) between the expansion chambers (5) and the ramps (4) gives additional relief. Those valves discharge in lateral channels (251). Lubrication can be provided through the solenoid gate oil inlet (113) and at the rest of the frictional areas inside the engine. This can be omitted upon low friction materials election. Also it can be lubricated by high-pressure injection in another part of the stator (1).
Engine overall internal friction is very low, inasmuch as expansion chambers (5) have a large channeled surface, letting few frictional area with the stator (1) inner wall. The sector seals (19) also cause low friction; the re-circulation ducts (18) only touch on the rotor (3) edges and the gates friction can be reduced yet, using the solenoids magnetic force.
Elimination of the main friction in the module can be accomplished (by turn) manually or electrically (not showed) in disposed points (127) and points (206). Evident advantage is at idle operation. Also requiring less power in starter and battery (extending life also). Using 3 modules as preferred embodiment here, the engine causes in each turn, nine Otto cycles, in other words, 3 elevated at the second power. Using six modules, 36 Otto cycles are produced or in other words 6 elevated at the second power. In general, being N=number of Otto cycles, and M=number of modules, then N=M.expo.2.
Upon quantity of modules increments, an auxiliary pump can be used in series circuit form, for help air/fuel mix re-circulation. (Not showed)
Maintenance is very simple, with common tools. Gates replacement is fast and easy without machine opening (ring seals change, equivalent in Otto engine) and long interval service, (as change pistons, in Otto engine) also can be made adjusting the supports (23,24) with shims in outer points (204).
Other variants of the solenoid gate could be a cam driven by stepper motor (not showed) or traditional camshafts mechanical linkage (not showed).
Engine basic design introduced here, by reliability, production costs, application, fuel economy operation and other factors, admits many combinations in its configuration, for that cause auxiliary systems, as electricity, electronics parts, computer hardware and software, compressed air and some parts of the cooling system are not showed.
Modular concept developed here, using gates with physical and virtual chambers; the outside exposed rotor ends concept; computer controlled gate concept and other new characteristics brings at the applications designer a new and broad development field, for that reason the presented invention will not be construed at these Description and at actual drawings, only at the spirit of Claims.
