Abstract:
A continuously variable displacement engine has a plurality of pistons received in a cylinder block and connected to a nutator. A crankshaft with an axis of rotation is carried in a crankcase and incorporates an upper journal with a first angle relative to the axis and a lower journal with a second angle with respect to the axis. A first slider ball is engaged on the upper journal and a second slider ball engaged on the lower journal. A carrier assembly captures the first and second slider balls and incorporates an actuating cylinder. An actuation piston assembly is translatably carried in the actuating cylinder and connected to the crankshaft intermediate the upper journal and lower journal. The actuating piston is controllably translated between a first high eccentricity position and second low eccentricity position. An anti-rotational assembly connects the nutator to a piston case. A balance mechanism is adapted to change the amount of counterbalance for the nutator and the axial location of the counterbalance consistent with eccentricity of the nutator.

Claim (Index 1):
A continuously variable displacement engine comprising:\n a plurality of pistons received in a cylinder block and connected to a nutator; a crankshaft carried in a crankcase and having an axis of rotation and\n an upper journal with a first angle relative to the axis and \n a lower journal with a second angle with respect to the axis; \n a first slider ball engaged on the upper journal and a second slider ball engaged on the lower journal; a carrier assembly capturing the first and second slider balls and incorporating an actuating cylinder; an actuation piston assembly translatably carried in the actuating cylinder and connected to the crankshaft intermediate the upper journal and lower journal, said actuating piston controllably translating between a first high eccentricity position and second low eccentricity position; an anti-rotational assembly connecting the nutator to a piston case; and, a balance mechanism adapted to change the amount of counterbalance for the nutator and the axial location of the counterbalance consistent with eccentricity of the nutator.
