INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: engine engineering. SUBSTANCE: engine comprises at least four cylinders with pistons 2, traverses 3 mounted inside housing 4 on axle 5 for permitting rolling, shaft 6 coupled with traverses 3 through a crank mechanism and arranged in the symmetry plane of rocking of traverses 3. The traverses are mounted in antiphase to each other. Shaft 6 is interposed between cylinders. Each traverse 3 is pivotally connected with the crank of the mechanism through a connecting rod. The pivots are arranged on both sides of the rocking symmetry plane and at the same distance from it. The angle between cranks is equal to the angle between lines which connect centers of pivots with the axis of shaft 6 when pistons 2 are in the top dead center. EFFECT: improved design. 2 cl, 3 dwg
