Implementations are disclosed herein that relate to a cylinder occupying structure. An example provides a cylinder system comprising a mechanical cylinder including an internal space in which a fluid is introduced, and a piston configured for reciprocating motion in the internal space, and a cylinder occupying structure including an insertion rod acting as a second piston, wherein the insertion rod is variably inserted into, and retracted from, the internal space of the cylinder in correspondence with the reciprocating motion of the piston and where parts of the insertion rod and the piston may surround the combustion space, and where fluid compression and fluid combustion is conducted within separate spaces.

A crank drive device for an internal combustion engine which comprises a crankshaft configured to be eccentrically connected to a connecting rod of a piston and to drive the drive shaft. The crankshaft is eccentrically connected to the camshaft and is rotatably supported with respect to the camshaft. An auxiliary motor which is configured to rotate the rotatable eccentric system.
