Disclosed is an offset rotational non-reciprocating-piston internal combustion engine in which an outer ring rotates on a one axis and an inner disk rotates on a second offset axis. Pistons are connected to the outer ring, while cylinders and other devices for operating the engine are mounted within an inner disk that rotates on a second axis that is offset from the axis of the outer ring. The inner disk and outer ring rotate together, such that the pistons create conditions of compression and explosive expansion within the cylinders without vibrating reciprocal piston motion. A unique fuel injection system is also disclosed that provides a variable fuel pressure that is created by centrifugal forces on the fuel. Because of the rotating inner disk and outer ring, advantages are taken of centrifugal force and gravity to distribute fuel, air, oil, high-voltage current, and cooling air in the engine.

A bearing device includes a piston arranged in a cylinder of a rotor, and a half bearing mounted on the piston to support a roller. The piston includes a recessed holding surface, and holding side surfaces on both axial sides thereof. Each holding side surface includes a ridge portion having an arc-shaped or elliptic-arc-shaped profile protruding toward a radially inner side of the piston. The half bearing includes a partially cylindrical portion, and protruding portions protruding from axial end faces thereof. Each protruding portion has a protruding portion end face which includes a central recessed surface, and two support recessed surfaces located on both circumferential sides thereof, that have an arc shape or an elliptic arc shape to correspond to the profile of the ridge portion, so that only the two support recessed surfaces are in contact with the ridge portion.
