The invention relates to a rotary piston engine comprising a housing which forms an interior space, two rotary pistons which are arranged in the interior space, an inlet opening for introducing a fluid into the interior space, and an outlet opening for the fluid, which is located in the interior space on a side opposite the inlet opening. Each rotary piston comprises at least two sealing strips and at least two recesses on the outer circumference thereof, wherein the shapes of the recesses and the sealing strips are selected to engage the sealing strips of a respective rotary pistons in the recesses of the respective other rotary piston. In addition, the sealing strips are dimensioned in the radial direction to sealingly contact an inner wall of the housing. The invention also relates to a corresponding method for operating a rotary piston engine.

A rotor unit assembly includes a rotor unit having a chamber and a rotor located within the chamber. The rotor has a piston which extends radially outward from the main body of the rotor; and a valve flange with an aperture. The rotor unit further comprises a rotatable hub, with a cavity configured to receive the piston. The rotor unit further comprises a first low pressure port provided in a path described by the piston; a first high pressure port positioned in a path described by the valve flange aperture around the clearance volume; and a second high pressure port positioned in a path described by the cavity around the hub axis.

A first rotor configured to rotate adjacent to a second rotor is disclosed. The second rotor includes a circular main body with a first axis of rotation and a vane extending radially from the main body. The first rotor includes a first curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept at a constant radius about a second axis of rotation, a second curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept by a leading edge of the vane when the second rotor is simultaneously rotated about the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation, a third curved surface that corresponds to a curve swept by a trailing edge of the vane when the second rotor is simultaneously rotated about the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation, and a vane-receiving groove disposed between the second curved surface and the third curved surface.

This invention of a continuous motion revolving piston engine describes a machine comprising piston(s) fitted to rings that revolve around a stator circular base which has a cavity in which a disc fits to create a closed combustion compartment together with the casing. The disc has a disc cavity to allow the piston to pass. The rotation of the disc and piston are synchronized to allow the piston to pass through the disc cavity. As there are no reciprocating parts and optionally enables an oil free operation, it is more efficient and has cleaner exhaust than existing engines.

The invention relates to an exhaust-gas energy recovery system, comprising an exhaust-gas line system (111) for conducting exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine and comprising a motor-generator device (101), which can be driven by means of exhaust-gas energy in order to produce electric current. The exhaust-gas line system (111) comprises a first line arm (124) to the motor-generator device (101) for conducting exhaust gases into the motor-generator device (101). The motor-generator device comprises a motor (100), which is arranged in such a way that the motor can be driven by a pressure of exhaust gas flowing through the motor. The invention further relates to a corresponding method for exhaust-gas energy recovery.

An engine system is provided, including a housing, multiple shafts in alignment and in parallel with each other, vertically penetrating through the housing, multiple wing sections integratively attached around the multiple shafts, respectively, and configured to engage with each adjacent one to drive axial rotation, and multiple ducts attached to the housing and communicating with inside of the housing, each duct being for use for passing an air-fuel mixture or outputting exhaust gases. The air-fuel mixture is collected in at least two open sections associated with the first wing section, and the collected air-fuel mixture is compressed and ignited for combustion when each of the at least two open sections has a minimum volume. Chemical energy generated by the combustion is used to drive the axial rotation of each wing section, thereby individually rotating the multiple shafts to transmit power.
