Abstract

Le moteur rotatif de la présente invention fonctionne selon un cycle de travail à quatre phases et, de par sa géométrie, atteint un rendement se situant, suivant le type, dans une plage variant entre 48 % et 64 %. Le cylindre a un trou de forme cylindrique, ce trou étant solidement fermé en ses deux extrémités par deux têtes plates (2). La section du trou du cylindre (1) est une courbe plane fermée se définissant par l'équation à coordonnées polaires selon laquelle on a (r, f): r(f) = R1 + aR1sin f pour: f⊂∫0; 2Π⊃ avec R1 > 0 et 0 < a ≤ 0,5. L'arbre (3), qui croise le trou du cylindre (1), est supporté dans les trous des deux têtes (2), et son axe est aligné sur l'axe du trou de cylindre (1) considéré. La section de l'arbre (3) entre les têtes (2), c'est-à-dire à l'intérieur du cylindre considéré (1), est de section rectangulaire et de forme cubicoïde. Le rotor (4) installé dans le cylindre considéré (1), se présentant sous la forme d'un bras, divise intérieurement le cylindre (1) en deux chambres hermétiques l'une par rapport à l'autre. La forme de la paroi intérieure du rotor considéré (4) est définie dans sa section par la ligne brisée plane définie par la fonction (r1, f): en coordonnées polaires. Ce moteur permet d'atteindre un rendement bien plus élevé que les moteurs à piston en raison de la course du moment de force de la pression des gaz s'exerçant contre l'arbre (3) pendant la phase de travail, et ce, en raison de la géométrie et du processus thermodynamique du moteur.
