Abstract

The present invention resides in an engine in which the function of a working cylinder is performed by a chamber formed by a rotating rotor with blades. The blades also rotate about their own axis within the rotor, thus causing the chamber to have a variable cross-section. The rotor and the blades divide and completely close off the chamber in such a way that, as they rotate, spaces are formed which have changing volumes. This divides the chamber into a working mixture intake zone, a compression zone, an ignition zone, an expansion (working stroke) zone and an exhaust gas outlet zone, thus forming an internal combustion engine. The rotor passes through the entire chamber and may be a disc rotor, a cylindrical rotor or a conical rotor. The blades are secured in the rotor and rotate about their own axis such that, as they pass through a narrow zone of the chamber, they retract into the rotor. For an external combustion engine, two strokes are used: an intake-expansion stroke, and an exhaust stroke. According to the same principle, the quadroid operates as a pump or as an engine supplied with a pressurized working fluid. In the gaps between the moving parts, a magnetic field keeps a portion of the gas ionized during combustion.

Description

[0001] Description

[0002] [EN] A quadrilateral rotary screw engine with a magnetic field. The engine operates on the principle of the rotor and blades creating chambers within the engine and changing their volumes during the operating cycles. The configuration of the rotor, blades, and their synchronous operation continuously closes the chamber into zones of start, compression, combustion, power stroke, and exhaust during the cycles. The rotor passes continuously through the entire chamber (or is part of it) perpendicular to the direction of rotation and can undergo a break perpendicular to the direction of rotation only at the points where the blades pass, with the minimum possible gap. This allows the blades to be separated by a significant distance from each other, and the number of blades can be reduced to one. Fixing the blade at both ends by the rotor significantly increases the latter's resistance to deformation under loads. The blades are secured in the rotor and rotate around their axis so that, when passing through a narrow zone of the chamber, they enter the rotor, adjacent to it.During the working cycle, the blades enter and exit the rotor simultaneously, with the rotor and blades interacting with the stator. To minimize leakage losses, the interaction between the parts occurs with the smallest possible clearance: thermal expansion, bearing play, gearbox play, deformation under load, manufacturing tolerances... At high flame temperatures, some of the gases, which have converted to an ionized state (plasma), can be held by a magnetic field. The rotor, depending on its angle (from 0 to 90 degrees) to the axis of rotation, can be disc, cylindrical, or conical. It can be double-sided, double-sided solid, or single-sided solid. In Fig.

[0003] 11 shows some rotor variants. The blades can be convex, concave, or closer to straight. Their shape is determined by the passage of narrow sections of the stator. Helical blades 33, 34, 36 allow the working medium to be moved not only in the direction of rotor rotation, but also perpendicularly. Thickening blade 33 towards the center increases its resistance to deformation. In the same way, blade 33 with rotor 23 can divide the chamber into several. Blade rotation around its axis in the rotor can be a multiple of 0.5 to the rotor revolutions (0.5; 1.0; 1.5...). The rotation of the rotor and blades forms a chamber with a variable cross-section. An external combustion engine also operates on the described principles.

[0028] Motor Fig. 1, 6

[0029] The engine has a chamber formed by a solid, double-sided disc rotor 23 and helical, concave blades 33, thickening toward the center. Each blade completes 0.5 revolutions per rotor revolution. Blade 2 exits top dead center (TDC), simultaneously closing the chamber. Rotating about its axis and the rotor's axis of rotation, the blade changes the chamber volumes. The lower portion of the blade, in zone 9, compresses the working mixture while simultaneously drawing in new mixture through inlet port 7. The upper portion of the blade, in zone 10, performs the power stroke while simultaneously releasing exhaust gases through outlet port 8. As it moves toward the ignition zone in zone 9, the blade compresses the working mixture and, due to its helical shape, moves it toward the center of the blade and, through a slit in sealing ring 13, transfers it from zone 9 to zone 10, where ignition occurs. For this motor design, it is also possible to use double-sided 26 or solid single-sided 25 disc or conical 31 rotors.

[0030] Motor Fig. 2, 5

[0031] The engine has a chamber formed by a double-sided cylindrical rotor 27 or 30 and convex blades. At TDC, the compressed working mixture in combustion chamber 19, bounded at the top by housing 1 and piston 14, on the sides by rotor 2, and below by blade 3, ignites. The rotor, rotating clockwise, closes the chamber at TDC and BDC. At this time, the blade moves from contact with the rotor to contact with the chamber walls. Gases press on the blade, performing the power stroke simultaneously with the exhaust gases from the previous cycle being released. At BDC, the blade enters the rotor and passes into the intake and compression zone, where it compresses the working mixture from the previous cycle while simultaneously drawing in new mixture. At TDC, the synchronous operation of the rotor and blade creates a combustion chamber into which the compressed working mixture is supplied, and the cycle repeats. Retracting piston 14 upward reduces compression and reduces the possibility of detonation, and vice versa.Retracting cylinder wall 15 to the left reduces the volume of the compression chamber, while retracting cylinder wall 16 to the right reduces the volume of the power chamber. This allows for a reduction in engine power without sacrificing efficiency. The rotor can be divided into several sections along the axis of rotation, as can blade 35, creating multiple engine chambers. Magnet 20 magnetizes the stator and rotor with blades. A magnetic field is generated in the gaps between the rotor, blades, and stator. During combustion, several percent of the gas is ionized. As the Lorenz forces pass through the gaps perpendicular to the magnetic field, they deflect charged particles, reducing plasma leakage through the gaps.

[0032] Motor Fig. 3

[0033] The motor has a chamber formed by a solid, single-sided cylindrical rotor 28, relative to which the blades are positioned inward. This motor differs from the previous one in that the combustion chamber is formed inside the rotor. The blade, performing compression and power stroke, interacts with the rotor on only one side. When using injectors, the inner part of the motor can rotate. A motor with rotor 29, relative to which the blades are positioned externally, will operate in a similar manner.

[0034] Fig. 4, 9

[0035] In this design, the blade rotates 0.5 times around its axis for every rotor revolution. When external pressure is applied to one of the ports, it functions as a motor. When the rotor rotates, it functions as a pump.

[0040] Fig. 10

[0041] The motor has a chamber formed by a conical rotor. As the blade passes TDC, pressurized steam (superheated water) is supplied through channel 22. As the blade exits TDC, channel 22 is interrupted by the rotor. The expanding steam performs work.
