Central-axis rotary piston internal combustion engine for use as load engine for accumulators in hybrid motor vehicle, has round cylindrical rotor housing closed by drive-output-side and drive-output-opposite housing cover

摘要

The central-axis rotary piston internal combustion engine has a round cylindrical rotor housing (1) closed by a drive-output-side and a drive-output-opposite housing covers (2,3). The engine also has an outer rotor (13), which rotates in the rotor housing about its central axis with uniform speed and an supports a drive-output-side and a drive-output-opposite rotor side disk (12,15). The outer rotor has three pistons arranged at uniform angular intervals from one another. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating an internal-combustion engine.
