A reciprocating heat accumulating type
internal combustion engine for air inlet and air outlet through a
scavenging duct comprises a compression air cylinder, a heat accumulator, a communicated
pipe, a
combustion chamber and an expansion air cylinder. The reciprocating heat accumulating type
internal combustion engine is characterized in that the heat accumulator is located in a channel of the communicated
pipe connecting the compression air cylinder and the expansion air cylinder, the compression air cylinder is divided into a pre-compression cavity and a compression cavity through a
piston, and the pre-compression cavity and the compression cavity are connected through the
scavenging duct. According to the basic operating principle, when the
piston of the compression air cylinder moves towards the upper stopping point from the lower stopping point, the air is fed into the pre-compression cavity, the air in the compression cavity is compressed, the
compressed air flows through the heat accumulator to be heated and enters the
combustion chamber to be burned with the fuel, a
piston of the expansion air cylinder moves downwards from the upper stopping point, and
fuel gas expands and acts. When the piston of the air cylinder moves upwards, the piston of the compression air cylinder moves downwards, the acting
fuel gas gets out of the expansion air cylinder and reversely passes a
combustor and the heat accumulator reversely to heat the heat accumulator, the
fuel gas temperature is reduced, the fuel gas enters the compression cavity and is exhausted through an exhaust outlet,
fresh air enters the compression cavity through the
scavenging duct, and a power circulation is finished.
