Description: |
| My invention relates to heat-motors in which air, and particularly compressed air, is heated and expanded by the internal combustion of gas, petroleum, coal-dust, or any other suitable fuel. A motor of the class referred to and of my invention is set forth in Letters Patent of the
United States No. 548,824, dated October 29, 1895.
Abstract:
My present invention is in the nature of improvements upon the construction of the motor presented in my aforesaid patent; and the objects of my improvements are, first, to preparatorily heat the fuel and the air, or a mixture of both, in a regenerator within the combustion-cylinder before they enter the combustion-chamber thereof, the regenerator preferably consisting of the inclosures of an interposed annular space between the elongated cylinder and its piston; second, to improve the controlling speed and pressure regulating devices, and, third, to improve some detail constructions, especially the construction of the regenerator and of the combustion-cylinder and its piston.
Claim:
In an internal-combustion engine, the combination with a combustion-cylinder and its piston having a two-part regenerator, one part being located in the inner walls of the cylinder and the other on the outer surface of the piston, of means for supplying a combustible charge to the cylinder, the compressed air for said charge being introduced to the combustion-chamber through said re- generator, in which it is preparatory heated, and the products of combustion being exhausted through said regenerator and imparting their heat thereto. |
