Internal combustion engine
View Patent ↗The internal combustion engine includes at least one compression chamber, formed by a housing and therein compressor rotary pistons rotating on a shaft with compressor sealing strips, on which optionally movable toggle sealing strips are arranged. The compression chamber is in gas connection with at least one ignition chamber and this ignition chamber is in gas connection with at least one expansion chamber. This chamber is formed by the housing and by an expansion rotary piston rotating in this chamber on a shaft. An at least one flywheel rotating in the housing on a shaft provided for the power transfer together with the compressor rotary piston forms a compression chamber and together with the expansion rotary piston forms an expansion chamber. The ignition chamber is equipped with a device for igniting a compressed gas mixture.
1. An internal combustion engine, comprising:
at least one inlet for an ignition mixture;
at least one outlet for exhaust gas;
at least one working chamber formed by a housing and a rotary working piston rotating therein and having at least one sealing strip;
at least one flywheel rotating in the housing provided with at least one recess for receiving the sealing strip of the rotary working piston; and
a pendulum seal arranged in the housing in contact with the flywheel and movable between the housing and the flywheel;
wherein the pendulum seal comprises a receiving aperture mounting a press-on device; and
wherein the press-on device comprises a bolt mountable pin mounted in the receiving aperture being supported on a coil spring and wherein the coil spring is supported on an adjusting screw.
2. The internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a recess for receiving the pendulum seal such that the pendulum seal is movable in said recess.
3. The internal combustion engine according to claim 2 , wherein the pendulum seal is rotatable in the recess around a longitudinal axis of the pendulum seal.
4. The internal combustion engine according to claim 2 , wherein the pendulum seal is float-mounted on an oil film in the recess.
5. The internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving aperture is arranged eccentrically to a longitudinal axis of the pendulum seal, so that the press-on device exerts a rotary movement on the pendulum seal in case of pressure.
6. The internal combustion engine according to claim 5 , wherein:
the press-on device is conducted to the pendulum seal through the housing of the internal combustion engine and is adjustable by the adjusting screw and a corresponding screw thread.
