New reciprocating machines and other devices

摘要: The disclosure relates to reciprocating fluid working devices including internal combustion engines, compressors and pumps. A number of arrangements for pistons cylinders unconventional configuration are described, mostly intended use in IC engines operating without cooling. Included toroidal or chambers, some with flow through the core toroid, a single piston between pair tensile valve actuation, links crankshaft, energy absorbing - crank links, crankshafts supported on gas bearings, rotating housings, injectors having components which reciprocate rotate during fuel delivery. In embodiments mare while reciprocating. High temperature exhaust emissions systems those containing filamentary material, as procedures reducing cold start by means valves at reaction volume exit. Also disclosed improved vehicles, aircraft, marine craft, transmissions emission suited invention.
