Patent ID: 7784435

Claim:
A particulate deflagration combustion engine comprising: a particulate fuel delivery system attaching a main fuel cell with a mixing box for delivering a measured portion of particulate fuel from the main fuel cell to the mixing box, a dried and compressed air delivery system attaching air drier and air compressor with the mixing box for delivering a portion of dried and compressed combustion air from the air drier and air compressor to the mixing box, mixing means provided in the mixing box for mixing the measured portion of particulate fuel with the portion of dried and compressed air to form a fuel and air mixture, a fuel and air mixture delivery system attaching the mixing box with a combustion chamber of a cylinder for delivering a portion of the fuel and air mixture to the combustion chamber, dual ignition sources provided in the walls of the cylinder for igniting the fuel and air mixture under deflagration conditions to create hot combustion gases and to operate a valve located within the cylinder and rotate an output shaft that is functional attached to the valve, an exhaust system attaching the combustion chamber with atmosphere for venting the hot combustion gases from the combustion chamber to atmosphere, and said exhaust system attached to the air dryer to remove moisture from the air dryer and exhaust the moisture thus removed to atmosphere with the hot combustion gases.
