A vane for a vane cell vacuum pump. The vane can be rotated about an axis of rotation by a rotor in a pump chamber and guided in the longitudinal direction in the rotor, with an upper side and a lower side to abut against the bottom and the ceiling of the pump chamber, with a rear side opposite a front side to limit the pressure chambers, with at least one face to slidably abut against an inside wall of the pump chamber on the casing side. The vane comprises a base body of a first plastic material and a vane end molded of a second plastic material to the base body forming the face. The base body comprises a mounting section around which the vane end is formed. The mounting section comprises at least one recess transverse to the front side and/or the rear side.

A composite intake system and method of operating a rotary engine with variable intake manifold is provided. The system includes two switching valves in a secondary intake switching tube to change the intake method. When the rotary engine works under low speed conditions, it adopts the long intake manifold and the side-intake mode. When the rotary engine works under medium and high speed conditions, it uses the short intake manifold and the composite-intake mode. When the rotary engine works under ultra high speed conditions, it takes the short intake manifold and the peripheral-intake mode.

A rotary directional pressure engine having a case within which a plurality of rotors rotate in parallel. The rotors include asymmetrical cavities on the circumferential faces thereof, which cavities function to move air and/or other gases into a combustion chamber area during an intake phase, to cooperatively form a combustion chamber during an ignition and combustion phase, and to move exhaust gases to the area of one or more exhaust ports for removal from the engine during an exhaust phase. Continued rotation of the rotors is accomplished by harnessing and properly directing the forces of combustion against the asymmetrical cavities of the rotors.

The invention relates to mechanical engineering. The present device for obtaining mechanical work from a non-thermal energy source comprises a cylindrical housing, a rotor, a vacuum chamber, movable elements, and systems for removal and supply of a working fluid. The rotor is provided with blades and is fastened to the power shaft, disposed inside the housing. The chamber is formed by the outside surface of the bladed rotor and the inside surface of the housing. The movable elements are mounted in diametric opposition inside the housing of the device and divide the chamber into equal parts. The shaft and blades of the rotor are hollow. The inlet ports and outlet ports are provided in surfaces of the rotor blades. Or outlet ports are provided in the housing. The technical result is an increase in the output, efficiency and environmental friendliness of the device, together with a simplified design.

In a vane compressor, a transmission pin is accommodated in a communication hole that provides communication between a first vane slot and a second vane slot. The transmission pin includes a loose-fit portion that is loosely inserted in a recessed portion formed in a bottom surface of each of first and second vanes, a shaft portion, and a flange portion formed between the loose-fit portion and the shaft portion and in contact with the bottom surface. A coil spring is disposed in the communication hole to urge the first vane and the second vane in opposite directions away from each other via the flange portion. The coil spring is disposed around the shaft portion and supported by the flange portion so as to urge and support the transmission pin.

Gas driven motors are presented including: a housing defining a circulation chamber and a shutter chamber, where the housing includes an intake port and an exhaust port; a drive axle positioned along a pair of parallel circulation chamber walls and rotatably attached thereto, where the drive axle is perpendicular to the pair of parallel circulation chamber walls; a vane having an attached edge, a leading edge parallel with and opposite to the attached edge, and a pair of vane side edges, where the pair of side edges are parallel with respect to one another and form a matching curve with respect to one another, where the vane includes a curved surface defined by the pair of side edges, where the vane is mechanically coupled with the drive axle along the attached edge.

The vane pump includes a rotor, a plurality of slits, vanes that are respectively received in the slits, a cam ring that has an inner circumferential cam face with which tip portions of the vanes are brought into sliding contact, pump chambers that are defined by the rotor, the cam ring, and the adjacent vanes, a side member that has a sliding contact surface with which the side surface of the rotor is brought into sliding contact, a discharge port that is formed so as to open to the side member, the discharge port being configured to guide working fluid discharged from the pump chamber, and a notch that are provided on the side member so as to extend from the opening of the discharge port in direction opposite to rotating direction of the rotor. The notch is formed radially outside of the protruded portion of the rotor.

A compression device is equipped with a compressor (102) and a heat energy recovery unit (200) that recovers heat energy from a compressed gas. The heat energy recovery unit (200) is equipped with: a heat exchanger (202) that has an inflow port (202a), and that heats an operating medium by means of the heat from the compressed gas; an expansion device (210); a power recovery unit (212); a condenser (214); and a pump (222). The heat exchanger (202) is arranged closer to the compressor (102) than the expansion device (210), and is oriented such that the inflow port (202a) faces the compressor (102).
