An exothermic cutting rod comprising an ignition assembly portion and a main portion. The main portion may comprise a plurality of fuel rods and a rod housing that is configured to allow a flow of oxygen to the ignition assembly portion. The ignition assembly portion may comprise an ignition fuel housing and an ignition fuel, which is entirely contained within said exothermic cutting rod. The ignition fuel housing may have one or more windows that are configured to allow a heat source to ignite the ignition fuel, which then in turn ignites the fuel rods.

An active prechamber device may include a prechamber housing longitudinally aligned with a main axis. The active prechamber device may also include a prechamber nozzle forming a cap at an end of the prechamber housing. The prechamber nozzle and prechamber housing may define a prechamber space that extends along the main axis. The prechamber nozzle may have a plurality of orifices fluidly connected to the prechamber space. Additionally, a fuel injector may be in a linear arrangement with the prechamber housing along the main axis. The fuel injector may have a fuel injection nozzle positioned to spray a fuel into the prechamber space. An electrode arrangement may be formed within the prechamber space. The electrode arrangement may include an electrode shaft and an electrode ring. The electrode ring may circumscribe the electrode shaft to form a spark gap within the prechamber space.

This patent discloses thrust vectoring ignition chamber engine. Thrust vectoring ignition chamber used in this engine is an annular cylinder having nozzles mounted in a way such that during fuel suction phase they are sealed and during ignition of fuel they are unsealed so that hot jets of ignited fuel escaping through nozzles cause coupled rotatory motion on the ignition chamber. Engine uses specially designed dwell barrel cam mechanism for suction and compression of fuel. Flywheel mounted on extension of ignition chamber functions as output of the engine. Each half rotation of flywheel completes three phases namely fuel/air suction, compression and combustion. Thus this engine fires for every half revolution and therefore can give improved power boost.
