Twin cylinder free piston engine - has output shaft driven through worm and wheel from piston rods

The engine has two pairs of cylinders (20, 22) on either side of the output shaft (32). Each pair consists of two cylinders in line with each other each containing a piston (44, 46) which are joined directly to each other by a piston rod (108). The pistons are joined to the rod by flexible bellows (...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The engine has two pairs of cylinders (20, 22) on either side of the output shaft (32). Each pair consists of two cylinders in line with each other each containing a piston (44, 46) which are joined directly to each other by a piston rod (108). The pistons are joined to the rod by flexible bellows (60) to give a certain amount of freedom of relative movement. Each piston rod carries worm gearing which meshes with a gear wheel on the output shaft (32). The gear contains a free qheel mechanism which ensures that the output shaft turns in one direction only. A second similar worm and wheel (108c) (110) links the two pairs of cylinders through a layshaft (112) and thus synchronises the timing of the two pairs.
