ROTARY ENGINE -32- ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A rotating single cylinder is mounted upon a pair of hollow rotating shafts and extends upon each side there- of. A pair of opposed pistons with a simple combustion chamber being defined within the area between the pistons, are mounted for reciprocation within the cylinder. Each piston is mounted upon an eccentric bearing which in turn may be stationary or rotatable, so that the effective move- ment of the pistons as the cylinder assembly rotates with the rotary shaft, is towards and away from one another with- out the stopping and starting of the pistons at top dead centre and bottom dead centre. Intake of fuel/air is via a valve at the inner end of one of the rotary shaft sections and exhaust is through a valve at the inner end of the other of said rotary shaft sections. The exhaust preferably is discharged tangentially of the plane of rotation immediate- ly adjacent the cylinder assembly to avoid the head from the exhaust, affecting the rotary shaft and bearings therefor. Due to the rotary motion of the pistons and cylinder, with the combustion chamber in the centre, centrifugal inertial forces are reduced relative to a conventional four-stroke engine in which the pistons and cylinders have to decelerate, - 33 - stop and accelerate in the opposite direction at the upper and lower ends of each stroke.
