[0003] First, in the process from the moment of combustion in the internal combustion engine to the opening of the exhaust valve, only the moment when the connecting rod moves along the tangent direction of the crankshaft rotation radius has the largest energy conversion ratio, and most of the rest of the time is spent doing useless work, resulting in serious energy waste;
[0004] Second, when the connecting rod moves to a specific position to open the bleed valve, there is still valuable kinetic energy in the cylinder that has not been fully utilized;
[0005] Third, the crankshaft size is limited, making it difficult to significantly increase the output torque by increasing the torque;
[0006] Fourth, the existing internal combustion engine fuels are almost entirely dependent on petroleum products, which faces challenges in terms of energy diversification and environmental protection;

[0040] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limitations on the present application. On the contrary, the embodiments of the present application include all changes, modifications and equivalents that fall within the spirit and connotation of the appended claims.
[0041] The crankshaftless explosion engine of an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 8As shown, the crankshaftless explosion engine of the embodiment of the present application may include at least one explosion chamber 1, a connecting rod 2, a power output gear set 3, a linkage control rod 4 and a return device 5, wherein the explosion chamber 1 is used to contain explosion materials and generate power, and has a filling port, an exhaust port and a firing device. When two explosion chambers are included, the two are linked and returned through a mechanical structure. One end of the connecting rod 2 is connected to the piston in the explosion chamber 1, and the other end is in contact with the power output gear set 3. The connecting rod 2 pushes the power output gear set 3 through a unidirectional helical tooth structure, allowing power to be transmitted only in a specific direction. The power output gear Group 3 cooperates with connecting rod 2 to convert linear motion into rotational mechanical energy output, and the size of power output gear group 3 can be adjusted according to actual power requirements. The linkage control rod 4 controls the exhaust, filling and firing timing of the explosion chamber 1 through contacts to ensure that the two explosion chambers work alternately. The return device 5 adopts a spring linkage structure. In the case of two explosion chambers, when one explosion chamber completes the work, it drives the connecting rod 2 to return through a mechanical connection and prepares for the other explosion chamber. In the case of a single explosion chamber, the elastic restoring force of the spring is used to directly drive the connecting rod 2 to return to the initial position to prepare for the next work.
[0043] It can be understood that the single deflagration chamber workflow:
[0044] 1. Filling stage: The filling port of the deflagration chamber 1 is opened, and the appropriate deflagration material is injected into it. For example, in some scenarios, a mixture of gasoline and air can be used as the deflagration material. After the filling is completed, the filling port is closed, and the deflagration chamber 1 is ready to enter the next stage.
[0045] 2. Firing and working stage: When the preset conditions are met, the firing device is triggered, and the deflagration material in the deflagration chamber burns violently, generating strong pressure instantly. This pressure pushes the piston to move, and the piston drives the connecting rod 2 connected to it to move linearly. The other end of the connecting rod 2 contacts the power output gear set 3 through a one-way helical gear structure. Under the push of the connecting rod 2, the movable teeth 34 in the one-way helical gear structure are tightly meshed with the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3, ensuring that the power is transmitted in a specific direction, thereby driving the power output gear set 3 to rotate and converting the linear motion into rotational mechanical energy output.
[0046] 3. Exhaust stage: After the work is completed, the linkage control rod 4 controls the exhaust port of the deflagration chamber 1 to open through the contact, and the exhaust gas after combustion is discharged. At this time, the firing device is in a closed state to prevent false triggering. During the exhaust process, the linkage control rod 4 accurately controls the exhaust node position according to the performance of the deflagration material and the engine operation requirements to ensure full utilization of the exhaust gas energy.
[0047] 4. Return stage: The spring in the return device 5 exerts elastic restoring force to directly drive the connecting rod 2 and the piston connected thereto to return to the initial position. During the return process, the movable teeth 34 in the one-way helical gear structure are disengaged from the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3 under the action of the locking plate 32 and the spring assembly 33, avoiding reverse influence on the power output gear set 3. After the return is completed, the explosion chamber 1 enters the filling stage again and starts the next working cycle.
[0048] Double Deflagration Chamber Workflow:
[0049] 1. Filling stage of deflagration chamber A: the filling port of deflagration chamber A is opened, and the deflagration material is injected. After the filling is completed, the filling port is closed.
[0050] 2. Explosion and working stage of the deflagration chamber A: the firing device is triggered, the deflagration material in A burns, and the pressure generated pushes the piston, which drives the connecting rod 2 to move. The connecting rod 2 pushes the power output gear set 3 through the one-way helical gear structure, causing the power output gear set 3 to rotate and output rotational mechanical energy.
[0051] 3. Exhaust of deflagration chamber A and filling of deflagration chamber B: After the work of A is completed, the linkage control rod 4 controls the exhaust port of A to open for exhaust and closes its firing device. During this period, the linkage control rod 4 controls the filling port of deflagration chamber B to open for filling of deflagration material.
[0052] 4. Explosion and work of the deflagration chamber B and return stage of the deflagration chamber A: After B is filled and ready, the linkage control rod 4 triggers the firing device of B, and the deflagration material in B burns and works, pushing its connecting rod 2 to drive the power output gear set 3 to continue to operate. At this time, the return device 5 comes into play, using the spring linkage structure and mechanical connection to drive the connecting rod 2 and related components of A to return while B is working. During the return process, the unidirectional helical tooth structure of A also avoids reverse interference with the power output gear set 3.
[0053] 5. Cyclic alternating operation: After B completes its work, it enters the exhaust stage, while A enters the filling stage. In this way, the two explosion chambers A and B work alternately, continuously providing power to the power output gear set 3, and realizing stable operation of the engine. During the whole process, the linkage control lever 4 accurately controls the exhaust, filling and firing timing of the two explosion chambers to ensure the coordination and stability of the work.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 8As shown, the one-way pushing structure of the connecting rod 2 and the power output gear set 3 is a plurality of helical ratchet mechanisms, each of which comprises a tooth socket 31, a locking piece 32, a spring assembly 33 and a movable tooth 34, wherein the tooth socket 31 is embedded in the 2 connecting rods; the locking piece 32 is arranged on the inner wall of the tooth socket 31, and is used to fix the spring assembly 33 and the movable tooth 34 to prevent them from falling off during movement; the spring assembly 33 is arranged in the tooth socket 31, and one end of the spring assembly 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the locking piece 32, and is used to ensure the normal operation of the movable tooth 34; The movable tooth 34 can be slidably arranged in the tooth socket 31 up and down, and one end is fixedly connected to one end of the spring assembly 33. The helical teeth of the movable tooth 34 are meshed with the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3; when the connecting rod 2 pushes the power output gear set 3, the helical teeth of the movable tooth 34 are meshed with the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3 to ensure that power is transmitted in a specific direction. When a reverse force acts on the power output gear set 3, the movable tooth 34 is disengaged under the action of the locking plate 32 and the spring assembly 33 to prevent reverse power transmission.
[0055] It can be understood that, 1. Power transmission stage: when the deflagration material in the deflagration chamber 1 burns to generate power and pushes the piston to move, the connecting rod 2 connected to the piston starts to move. The connecting rod 2 drives the helical ratchet mechanism to transmit power to the power output gear set 3. In this process, the movable tooth 34 overcomes part of the elastic force of the spring assembly 33 under the thrust of the connecting rod 2 and slides upward along the tooth socket 31. As the movable tooth 34 rises, its helical teeth gradually mesh closely with the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3. Due to the helical tooth design of the movable tooth 34 and the power output gear set 3, the thrust of the connecting rod 2 can be effectively converted into a torque that rotates the power output gear set 3, thereby driving the power output gear set 3 to rotate in a specific direction, and converting the linear motion generated by the deflagration into rotational mechanical energy output.
[0056] 2. Preparation stage for return after power transmission is completed: When power transmission is completed and the connecting rod 2 no longer applies thrust to the movable tooth 34, the spring assembly 33 begins to work. One end of the spring assembly 33 is fixedly connected to the locking plate 32, and the other end is fixedly connected to the movable tooth 34. At this time, the spring assembly 33 pushes the movable tooth 34 to slide downward along the tooth socket 31 by its own elastic restoring force, so that it returns to the initial position and prepares for the next power transmission. During the return process, the locking plate 32 limits the range and direction of movement of the movable tooth 34, ensuring that the movable tooth 34 can accurately return to the initial position and that there will be no abnormal shaking or deviation during the return process.
[0057] 3. Preventing reverse power transmission stage: During the operation of the engine, various situations may occur that cause reverse forces to act on the power output gear set 3, such as when the engine suddenly slows down or is subjected to a short external reverse impact. At this time, the power output gear set 3 will tend to rotate in the opposite direction. Once this happens, the movable tooth 34 quickly disengages from the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3 under the joint action of the locking plate 32 and the spring assembly 33. The locking plate 32 constrains the movement of the movable tooth 34 so that it cannot rotate in the opposite direction with the power output gear set 3, while the spring assembly 33 provides additional elastic force to help the movable tooth 34 disengage quickly, thereby effectively preventing the reverse power from being transmitted back to the connecting rod 2, avoiding interference with the normal operation of the engine, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the engine power output.
[0058] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the firing device of the deflagration chamber 1 can adjust the firing point to adapt to the combustion characteristics of different deflagration materials, and realize the optimal combination of the deflagration sequence and time interval through the linkage control rod 4.
[0059] It is understandable that, 1. Preparation stage: Determine the firing point based on the explosive material
[0060] Before using the crankshaftless deflagration engine, the firing device of the deflagration chamber 1 needs to be adjusted according to the type of deflagration material selected. For example, if liquid explosives are used, their distribution in the deflagration chamber is different from that of solid fuels due to their fluidity. In order for the liquid explosives to fully burn and release energy, the firing device needs to be adjusted to the bottom of the deflagration chamber 1 or a specific mixing area. If solid explosives are used, the firing device also needs to be accurately positioned to achieve the best combustion state because factors such as their shape, density, and ignition point will affect the combustion effect.
[0061] 2. Operation stage: linkage control lever 4 controls the explosion sequence and time interval
[0062] When the single explosion chamber is working: When the engine has only one explosion chamber 1, the linkage control lever 4 controls the triggering time of the firing device according to the engine's operating state (such as speed, load, etc.) and the preset program. For example, at the beginning of the engine start-up, in order to quickly increase the speed, the linkage control lever 4 will shorten the firing interval so that the explosion chamber 1 will explode and work more frequently. As the engine reaches a stable operating state, the linkage control lever 4 will appropriately extend the firing interval to improve fuel utilization.
[0063] When the dual explosion chambers are working: If the engine contains two explosion chambers 1, the control process of the linkage control lever 4 is more complicated and critical. Assuming that the two explosion chambers are A and B, when the engine is running, the linkage control lever 4 will determine the explosion order and time interval according to actual needs. For example, under conditions where a higher initial power output is required, the linkage control lever 4 first triggers the firing device of the explosion chamber A, so that the explosion chamber A quickly generates power to drive the connecting rod 2 and the power output gear set 3 to operate. After a short time interval, the firing device of the explosion chamber B is triggered again to achieve the superposition and enhancement of power to meet the instantaneous high power demand. In the case of requiring smooth power output, the linkage control lever 4 will set the firing time intervals of the two explosion chambers to be relatively uniform, so that the explosion chambers A and B can alternately and stably work to keep the power output stable.
[0064] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the linkage control rod 4 sets the exhaust node position according to the performance of the deflagration material, and accurately controls the exhaust, filling and firing timing of each chamber in the dual deflagration chamber linkage.
[0065] It can be understood that: 1. Set the exhaust node position according to the performance of the explosive material
[0066] Different deflagration materials have different exhaust gas characteristics after combustion, such as exhaust gas pressure, temperature, and energy release law. Before the engine is running, the technician will input relevant parameters into the control system 6 according to the characteristics of the selected deflagration material.
[0067] The linkage control rod 4 determines the exhaust node position of each deflagration chamber 1 based on these preset parameters. Taking a deflagration material with rapid energy release, high exhaust gas pressure after combustion but short duration as an example, in order to maximize the use of exhaust gas energy to drive the piston movement, the linkage control rod 4 will set the exhaust node position relatively backward, so that in the later stage of combustion, the piston can still obtain additional driving force with the help of exhaust gas pressure, avoiding energy waste caused by premature exhaust. On the contrary, for deflagration materials with relatively gentle energy release, relatively low exhaust gas pressure but long duration, and when the engine application scenario has high requirements for power stability, the linkage control rod 4 will appropriately advance the exhaust node position to ensure that the exhaust gas can be discharged in time and does not affect the intake and filling process of the next combustion cycle.
[0068] 2. Accurately control the exhaust sequence of each chamber in the linkage of dual explosion chambers
[0069] Assume that the two deflagration chambers are respectively deflagration chamber A and deflagration chamber B. When deflagration chamber A completes deflagration work, linkage control rod 4 triggers the exhaust port of deflagration chamber A to open through its contact according to the preset exhaust node position. At this time, the exhaust gas after combustion begins to be discharged. At the same time, linkage control rod 4 will close the firing device of deflagration chamber A to prevent it from being triggered by mistake. During the exhaust process, the set exhaust node position is strictly followed to ensure full utilization of energy.
[0070] While the explosion chamber A is being exhausted, the linkage control lever 4 will accurately control the working state of the explosion chamber B according to the overall operating rhythm and power requirements of the engine. If the engine needs to continuously and stably output power at this time, the linkage control lever 4 will ensure that the explosion chamber B is in a state of being ready to fire, that is, checking whether the filling of the explosion chamber B is complete and whether various parameters meet the firing conditions.
[0071] 3. Accurately control the filling sequence of each chamber in the linkage of dual explosion chambers
[0072] When the exhaust of the deflagration chamber A is nearing the end, the linkage control rod 4 controls the filling port of the deflagration chamber A to open and start filling new deflagration materials. During the filling process, the linkage control rod 4 monitors the progress and quality of the filling to ensure that the filling amount meets the preset requirements.
[0073] At the same time, if the deflagration chamber B has completed the preparation work, the linkage control rod 4 will trigger the firing device of the deflagration chamber B according to the accurately calculated time interval. During the work of the deflagration chamber B, the deflagration chamber A continues to be filled to prepare for the next work.
[0074] 4. Accurately control the firing sequence of each chamber in the dual-explosion chamber linkage
[0075] When the linkage control rod 4 is triggered, the explosion material in the explosion chamber B is ignited, generating strong pressure to push the piston to move, thereby driving the connecting rod 2 and the power output gear set 3 to operate and output power.
[0076] When the work of the explosion chamber B is completed, the linkage control rod 4 will control the exhaust port of the explosion chamber B to open and the firing device to close according to the established timing, and then open the filling port for filling, and at the same time start to prepare for the next round of firing control of the explosion chamber A. In this way, the linkage control rod 4 accurately controls the exhaust, filling and firing timing of the dual explosion chambers, so that the two explosion chambers work alternately, ensuring that the engine continuously and stably outputs power.
[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 8As shown, it also includes a control system 6, which is connected to the linkage control rod 4. It can accurately control the movement of the linkage control rod 4 according to the operating status of the engine and the preset program to realize the automatic operation of the engine. The control system 6 is also connected to a sensor 7. The sensor 7 is used to monitor the pressure, temperature and other parameters in the explosion chamber 1, and transmit the monitoring data to the control system 6, so as to provide data support for the accurate control of the linkage control rod 4 and ensure the accurate coordination of the alternating work.
[0078] It is understandable that 1. System initialization and startup
[0079] Before starting the engine, the technicians will preset a series of program parameters in the control system 6 according to factors such as the design purpose of the engine, the expected working environment and the characteristics of the deflagration materials used. These parameters include the initial filling amount of the deflagration chamber 1, the firing sequence, the exhaust and filling time interval, etc.
[0080] When the engine is started, the control system 6 starts working. It first sends a start command to the linkage control rod 4. The command is generated according to a preset program, instructing the linkage control rod 4 to prepare to open the filling port of the deflagration chamber 1 to fill the deflagration material. Assuming that the engine has two deflagration chambers A and B, after the linkage control rod 4 receives the command, it controls the filling port of the deflagration chamber A to open and inject a preset amount of deflagration material into it. After the filling is completed, the linkage control rod 4 closes the filling port and prepares to trigger the firing device.
[0081] 2. Real-time monitoring and control during operation
[0082] After the engine is started, it enters the running state, at which time the sensors 7 distributed in various key parts of the engine begin to collect data in real time. For example, the pressure sensor and temperature sensor installed in the explosion chamber 1 will continuously monitor the pressure and temperature changes in the explosion chamber 1, and transmit these data to the control system 6 in real time.
[0083] After receiving the data from the sensor 7, the control system 6 will immediately compare and analyze it with the preset normal operating parameter range. If the pressure in the deflagration chamber A rises too fast during the combustion process and exceeds the preset safety range, the control system 6 will determine that there may be abnormal combustion. At this time, the control system 6 quickly sends an adjustment instruction to the linkage control lever 4 according to the preset response strategy.
[0084] After receiving the command, the linkage control lever 4 will perform corresponding operations according to the command requirements. For example, the exhaust port of the explosion chamber A is opened in advance to discharge part of the high-pressure exhaust gas, reduce the pressure in the explosion chamber A, and avoid dangerous situations. At the same time, the linkage control lever 4 will also adjust the amount of explosion material filled in the explosion chamber A next time, as well as the working sequence between the explosion chamber A and the explosion chamber B, to ensure the overall stable operation of the engine.
[0085] 3. Dynamic adjustment when working conditions change
[0086] During the operation of the engine, if the working conditions change, such as a sudden increase in external load, the engine needs to output more power. At this time, the sensor 7 will promptly detect the speed change of the power output gear set 3 and other related parameters, and transmit this information to the control system 6.
[0087] The control system 6 calculates the parameters that need to be adjusted based on these data and the preset procedures for dealing with different working conditions. Then, a new instruction is sent to the linkage control rod 4, requiring it to adjust the working state of the deflagration chamber. After receiving the instruction, the linkage control rod 4 will increase the filling amount of the deflagration chambers A and B, so that more deflagration materials participate in the combustion to generate greater power. At the same time, the linkage control rod 4 will also shorten the firing time interval of the two deflagration chambers, increase the working frequency of the engine, and thus meet the power demand of the increased external load.
[0088] 4. Continuous circulation and stable operation
[0089] During the continuous operation of the engine, the control system 6 continuously receives data from the sensor 7, monitors the operating status of the engine in real time, and continuously sends control instructions to the linkage control lever 4 according to the preset program and the actual working condition changes. The linkage control lever 4 accurately controls the exhaust, filling and firing timing of the explosion chamber 1 according to these instructions to ensure the stable operation of the engine.
[0090] In this way, the control system 6 and the linkage control lever 4 work closely together to realize the automatic operation of the engine, so that the engine can always maintain an efficient and stable working state under various complex working conditions and provide reliable power output for external equipment.
[0091] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the connection between the power output gear set 3 and the external machinery adopts a standardized interface to adapt to the requirements of different equipment and ensure stable power transmission.
[0092] It is understandable that when the crankshaftless explosion engine needs to be connected to an external machine, the first thing to do is to select a suitable connection component based on the input shaft specifications and power requirements of the external machine. Since the power output gear set 3 adopts a standardized interface design, whether it is an involute spline connection, a flat key connection or other standardized connection methods, there are corresponding standard specifications. For example, if an involute spline connection is used, it is necessary to ensure that the spline parameters (such as module, number of teeth, pressure angle, etc.) of the external machine input shaft are completely matched with the spline parameters of the power output gear set 3.
[0093] After the engine is started, the explosion material in the explosion chamber 1 burns to generate power, pushing the piston to move, and the piston drives the connecting rod 2. The connecting rod 2 transmits the linear motion to the power output gear set 3 through a one-way pushing structure (such as a helical ratchet mechanism), causing the power output gear set 3 to start rotating.
[0094] Since the power output gear set 3 is connected to the external machinery using a standardized interface, power can be stably transmitted to the external machinery. During the transmission process, the high precision and consistency of the standardized interface ensure good coordination between the power output gear set 3 and the input shaft of the external machinery, reducing power loss and mechanical vibration. For example, when the mechanical equipment on the industrial production line is running, even if there is a certain fluctuation in the power output of the engine, the standardized interface can effectively buffer such fluctuations and ensure the smooth operation of the external machinery.
[0095] It should be noted that the control method of the present application can be automatically controlled by a controller, and the control method of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by technicians in this field, which is common knowledge in this field, and the present application is mainly used to protect mechanical structures, so the present application will no longer explain the control method and circuit connection in detail.
[0096] Specifically, in the actual implementation process, in the actual application scenario, taking the industrial production scenario as an example, a crankshaftless explosion engine equipped with a dual explosion chamber is used to power a heavy machine. The following is the specific working process of the engine:
[0097] 1. Preliminary preparation and connection
[0098] According to the power requirements of heavy machinery, the power output gear set 3 of appropriate size is selected, and it is connected to the input shaft of heavy machinery with a standardized interface of involute spline. The technicians carefully check the splines of the power output gear set 3 and the splines of the input shaft of the heavy machinery to ensure that the parameters such as the module, number of teeth, and pressure angle of the two match, and then install them to ensure a tight connection, laying the foundation for stable power transmission.
[0099] The technicians input relevant characteristic parameters into the control system 6 according to the selected explosion material (such as a gasoline and air mixture in a specific ratio), including the combustion speed, energy release curve, etc., so that the control system 6 can coordinate with the linkage control lever 4 to accurately control the engine operation.
[0100] 2. Engine start-up phase
[0101] When starting the engine, the control system 6 sends a start command to the linkage control lever 4 according to a preset program. After receiving the command, the linkage control lever 4 controls the filling port of the explosion chamber A to open, injects the explosion material according to the preset initial filling amount, and closes the filling port after the filling is completed.
[0102] Then, the linkage control rod 4 triggers the firing device of the explosion chamber A, and the mixed gas in the explosion chamber burns violently, generating strong pressure to push the piston to move. The piston drives the connecting rod 2 connected to it, and the connecting rod 2 pushes the power output gear set 3 through the one-way helical gear structure (multiple helical gear ratchet mechanisms). In this process, the movable teeth 34 in the helical gear ratchet mechanism overcome part of the elastic force of the spring assembly 33 under the thrust of the connecting rod 2, and slide upward along the tooth socket 31. Its helical teeth are tightly meshed with the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3, driving the power output gear set 3 to rotate, outputting rotational mechanical energy, and the heavy machinery starts to start running.
[0103] 3. Engine operation stage
[0104] Exhaust of Deflagration Chamber A and Filling of Deflagration Chamber B: After the work of Deflagration Chamber A is completed, the linkage control rod 4 triggers the exhaust port of Deflagration Chamber A to open through the contact according to the preset exhaust node position (determined based on the characteristics of the Deflagration Material input in the early stage), and the exhaust gas after combustion is discharged, and the firing device is closed to prevent mis-triggering. During this period, the linkage control rod 4 controls the filling port of Deflagration Chamber B to open, and the Deflagration Material is filled to ensure that the filling amount meets the preset requirements.
[0105] Firing work of deflagration chamber B and return of deflagration chamber A: After deflagration chamber B is filled and all parameters meet the firing conditions, the linkage control rod 4 triggers the firing device of deflagration chamber B. The deflagration material in deflagration chamber B burns and performs work, pushing the piston to drive the connecting rod 2, so that the power output gear set 3 continues to operate and maintains the power demand of heavy machinery. At this time, the return device 5 uses the spring linkage structure and mechanical connection to drive the connecting rod 2 and related components of the deflagration chamber A to return. During the return process, the movable teeth 34 in the one-way helical tooth structure of the deflagration chamber A are disengaged from the helical teeth of the power output gear set 3 under the action of the locking plate 32 and the spring assembly 33, avoiding reverse interference with the power output.
[0106] Cyclic operation and real-time adjustment: After the work is completed, the explosion chamber B enters the exhaust stage, and the explosion chamber A enters the filling stage. In this way, the two explosion chambers work alternately to continuously provide power to the power output gear set 3 to ensure the stable operation of heavy machinery. During operation, the sensors 7 distributed in the explosion chamber 1 monitor the pressure, temperature and other parameters in real time, and transmit the data to the control system 6. If the load of the heavy machinery suddenly increases, the sensor 7 detects that the speed of the power output gear set 3 decreases. After the control system 6 calculates according to the preset program, it sends a command to the linkage control lever 4. After receiving the command, the linkage control lever 4 increases the filling amount of the explosion chambers A and B, and shortens the firing time interval of the two explosion chambers, so that the engine outputs more power to meet the changing working conditions of the heavy machinery.
[0107] 4. Engine stop phase
[0108] When the engine needs to be stopped, the control system 6 sends a stop command to the linkage control lever 4. The linkage control lever 4 controls the explosion chambers A and B to stop filling the explosion material, closes the firing device, and ensures that the exhaust port is open to discharge the remaining exhaust gas in the combustion chamber.
[0109] As the engine stops running, the power output gear set 3 gradually stops rotating, and the heavy machinery also stops working therewith. At this moment, the whole engine system enters a stopped state, waiting for the next start-up operation.
[0110] On the basis of the above principle, when a crankshaftless deflagration engine uses solid environmentally friendly explosives as deflagration materials, an explosion chamber and a finished explosive automatic loading device are separately set outside the deflagration chamber. Figure 8 When an explosion occurs in A, the piston pushes the connecting rod to move toward B. When the exhaust node A is triggered, the explosion chamber A produces the following linkage: 1. Open the exhaust valve and stop working; 2. Drive the material transport wheel to rotate a material transport chamber to its place; 3. Close the explosion chamber door. When an explosion occurs in B, the piston pushes the connecting rod to move toward A, and the linkage control rod triggers the explosion chamber A to move as follows: 1. The explosion chamber door opens; 2. The filling plug is filled; 3. The explosion chamber door is closed; 4. The delayed ignition device is triggered and ignited. The two explosion chambers AB work alternately, are linked to each other, and trigger each other to achieve interactive interlocking.
[0111] In summary, the crankshaftless explosion engine of the embodiment of the present application abandons the crankshaft, so that the explosion kinetic energy directly cuts the output gear, improves the conversion efficiency, accurately controls the exhaust and explosion sequence to reduce energy waste, has a wide fuel compatibility, can adjust parameters according to the fuel to promote energy diversity, the power gear set can be changed as needed, and multiple machines are connected in parallel to optimize the output. The unique design simplifies the structure, reduces the cost and difficulty of maintenance, and the control sense cooperates to ensure efficient operation.
