A rotary internal combustion engine includes a main rotor housing that has a peripheral wall that circumscribes a rotor cavity, a first interface surface and a second interface surface. A rotor is disposed within the rotor cavity. First and second side housings are secured against corresponding first and interface surfaces of the main rotor housing. The main rotor housing, the first side housing and the second side housing are formed from an aluminum alloy and at least one of the first interface surface and the second interface surface include an anti-fretting coating.

A rotary engine includes an intake port, an exhaust port, a rotor having an intake channel and/or an exhaust channel, and a rotor shaft coupled to the rotor. The rotor shaft has an inflow channel in communication with the intake channel and/or an outlet channel in communication with the exhaust channel. The rotary engine includes a housing having a working chamber formed between the housing and the rotor, the working chamber configured to handle, in succession, an intake phase, a compression phase, a combustion phase, an expansion phase, and an exhaust phase. The inflow channel cyclically communicates with the intake port and forms a passage between the intake port and the working chamber through the rotor shaft and the intake channel. The outlet channel cyclically communicates with the exhaust port and forms a passage between the exhaust port and the working chamber through the rotor shaft and the exhaust channel.

A scroll compressor is provided that may include a casing, a discharge cover fixed inside of the casing, a first scroll revolved a rotational shaft, a second scroll provided on the first scroll to define compression chambers, the second scroll having an intermediate pressure discharge hole that communicates with a compression chamber of the compression chambers having an intermediate pressure, a back pressure plate provided on the second scroll and having an intermediate pressure suction hole that communicates with the intermediate pressure discharge hole, a floating plate movably provided at a side of the back pressure plate and defining a back pressure chamber, and a sealing member provided between the back pressure plate and the floating plate, the sealing member including a sealing body, and at least one protrusion provided at an incline with respect to a central line that extends in a horizontal direction of the sealing body.

A pump apparatus includes a shaft, a first pump, and a second pump. The first pump includes a first driving gear disposed on the shaft in a first phase and rotatable with the shaft to feed a first operating fluid. The second pump includes a second driving gear disposed on the shaft in a second phase shifted from the first phase. The second driving gear is coaxial with the first driving gear and rotatable with the shaft to feed a second operating fluid.

A rotor housing for an aircraft rotary engine includes a side housing body and a rail. The side housing body extends along an axis between and to an inner side and an outer side. The side housing body forms a fluid cooling passage and a plurality of ribs. The fluid cooling passage extends about the axis at the inner side. The plurality of ribs are coincident with and extend into the fluid cooling passage. The plurality of ribs are distributed about the fluid cooling passage as an array of ribs. The rail is disposed at the plurality of ribs. The rail extends about the fluid cooling passage. The side housing body and the rail form a plurality of fluid cooling channels connected in fluid communication with the fluid cooling passage.

A scroll member includes a base having a panel and a spiral blade provided to extend from the panel toward another scroll member, resin layer L1 formed on the base, and a plurality of grooves C formed on a surface of the resin layer. The plurality of grooves C are formed on the surface of resin layer L1. A cross-section of each groove C has a shape similar to a U-shape or a semicircle in which the width decreases toward the deeper position and the rate of change in width increases toward the bottom. Grooves C are formed by moving an edge of a cutting tool along the original surface of the resin layer, which is originally formed on base L0 by application or the like.

A rotatory internal combustion engine includes a power module, a housing configured to retain the power module and including an intake and an exhaust, and a first sleeve including a sleeve intake, a sleeve exhaust, and an injector port. The first sleeve is removably coupleable within the housing to form an intake flow path between the housing intake and the sleeve intake, and an exhaust flow path between the housing exhaust and the sleeve exhaust. The first sleeve is interchangeable with a second sleeve that has at least one of a sleeve intake, a sleeve exhaust, and an injector port different than the corresponding sleeve intake, sleeve exhaust, and injector port of the first sleeve, and that is configured to modify at least one of a torque output of the engine, a power output of the engine, and a fuel timing of the engine, compared to the first sleeve.
