[0024] The following describes an output shaft valve distribution and supercharging system of an annular opposed-engine according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings as an example.

[0025] An output shaft valve boosting system of an annular opposed engine, the opposed engine comprises a piston cylinder 1 and a power transmission shaft 2, and an output shaft housing 3, wherein the power transmission shaft 2 is coaxially arranged in the output shaft housing 3, and the output shaft housing 3 is provided with a first high-temperature baffle 4, an exhaust fan wheel 5, an intake fan wheel 6, an airflow boosting vortex 7, a second high-temperature baffle 8 and a power output gear 18 coaxially sleeved on the power transmission shaft 2 from one end to the other end, the exhaust fan wheel 5 is coaxially fixedly connected with the intake fan wheel 6, the first high-temperature baffle 4, the coaxially fixed exhaust fan wheel 5 and the intake fan wheel 6 and the second high-temperature baffle 8 are all rotatably connected to the power transmission shaft 2, and the airflow boosting vortex 7 is fixed in the output shaft housing 3 and is not connected to the power transmission shaft 2;

[0026] The area between the air intake impeller 6 and the second high-temperature baffle 8 in the power shaft housing 3 forms an airflow boosting chamber 9, and the airflow boosting scroll 7 is arranged in the airflow boosting chamber 9;

[0027] An exhaust gas outlet 10 and an air inlet 11 are provided between the piston chamber of the piston cylinder 1 and the output shaft housing 3. The exhaust gas outlet 10 and the air inlet 11 are both connected to the piston chamber of the piston cylinder 1 and the output shaft housing 3. The exhaust gas outlet 10 is provided at the exhaust fan wheel 5, and the air inlet 11 is provided between the airflow supercharging scroll 7 and the second high-temperature baffle 8. The exhaust gas blown into the output shaft housing 3 by the exhaust gas outlet 10 drives the exhaust fan wheel 5 to rotate, and the rotating exhaust fan wheel 5 drives the intake fan wheel 6 to rotate.

[0028] The power shaft housing 3 is provided with a carburetor 12 connected to the outside world at the position of the air intake fan wheel 6. The carburetor 12 is provided with a throttle valve and a fuel injector. When the air intake fan wheel 6 rotates, the throttle valve of the carburetor 12 opens to inhale fresh air into the power shaft housing 3, and the fuel injector sprays oil mist, which follows the inhaled fresh air into the output shaft housing 3 for mixing, and is pressurized in the air flow booster chamber 9 and enters the piston chamber of the piston cylinder 1 through the air inlet 11.

[0029] As a preferred implementation scheme of this embodiment, the exhaust fan wheel 5 and the intake fan wheel 6 are fixed on a sleeve 14, and the sleeve 14 is rotatably sleeved on the power transmission shaft 2 through a bearing 15. A third high-temperature baffle 16 is sleeved on the outer side of the sleeve 14 and located between the exhaust fan wheel 5 and the intake fan wheel 6. A bearing 15 is provided between the third high-temperature baffle 16 and the sleeve 14, and the third high-temperature baffle 16 is fixed to the inner wall of the output shaft housing 3.

[0030] As a preferred implementation scheme of this embodiment, the carburetor 12 is arranged between the air intake fan wheel 6 and the airflow supercharger 7.

[0031] As a preferred implementation scheme of this embodiment, the first high-temperature baffle 4, the coaxially fixed exhaust fan wheel 5 and the intake fan wheel 6, and the second high-temperature baffle 8 are all rotatably connected to the power transmission shaft 2 through bearings 15.

[0032] As a preferred implementation scheme of this embodiment, a fourth high-temperature baffle 17 is provided on the power transmission shaft 2 on the side of the power output gear 18 away from the second high-temperature baffle 8, and the fourth high-temperature baffle 17 is connected to the power transmission shaft 2 via a bearing 15.

[0033] As a preferred implementation scheme of this embodiment, a waste outlet 13 is provided on the power shaft housing 3 located on the exhaust fan wheel 5, and the waste outlet 13 is used to discharge the waste gas entering the exhaust fan wheel 5. The waste gas discharged from the waste outlet 13 does not interfere with the fresh air entering through the carburetor throttle 12.

[0034] The output shaft housing 3 of the present invention can be matched with multiple piston cylinders 1, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0035] In the present invention, when the work done in the piston cylinder 1 is completed, the high-pressure exhaust gas generated rushes into the output shaft housing 3 through the exhaust port 10, and drives the exhaust fan wheel 5 to rotate at a high speed. The exhaust fan wheel 5 drives the intake fan wheel 6 to rotate at a high speed through the sleeve 14. The huge back suction generated opens the throttle of the carburetor 12 on the power shaft housing 3, allowing fresh air to enter the output shaft housing 3 through the carburetor 12. At the same time, the oil nozzle of the carburetor 12 sprays oil mist in the opposite direction of the air flow of the intake fan wheel 6. Under the squeezing effect of the air flow on the air flow in the air flow boosting chamber 9 through the air flow boosting vortex 7, the mixing of oil and gas is increased, and it is sprayed into the piston cylinder from the air inlet 11 at a higher flow rate, so as to prevent the oil from mixing with the air flow. Figure 1 It can be seen from the structure above that there is only one air inlet and one exhaust port between the piston cylinder 1 and the output shaft housing 3 of this architecture, which greatly optimizes the efficiency of the engine valve system, simplifies the structure and improves the reliability of the engine;

[0036] The power transmission of the present invention: the cylinder piston acts to output power to the power transmission shaft 2 through the crank connecting rod mechanism, and the power transmission shaft 2 rotates and passes through the power output gear 18 thereon, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the power output gear 18 is a bevel gear, which provides power to the auxiliary parts of the engine through the configured transmission structure, thereby simplifying the structure, reducing the weight and reducing the volume, and improving the adaptability to the matching aircraft.

[0037] The present invention and its embodiments are described above, and such description is not restrictive. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in the field are inspired by it, without departing from the purpose of the invention, they can design a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without creativity, which should belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
