| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6994057 | Compression ignition engine by air injection from air-only cylinder to adjacent air-fuel cylinder The internal combustion engine relies on air injection for ignition instead of Otto cycle spark or Diesel cycle fuel injection. Cylinder pairs are connected by a cylinder-connecting valve, which opens near top-dead-center on the compression stroke injecting high-pre... | 02/07/2006 |
| 6748909 | Internal combustion engine driving a compressor A two-stroke or four-stroke internal combustion engine operates by admitting a carburated mixture or by admitting fresh air with the direct or indirect injection of fuel. The engine has at least one cylinder, which defines a variable-volume combustion chamber in whi... | 06/15/2004 |
| 6352057 | Super charged two-stroke or four-stroke internal combustion engine Two-stroke or four-stroke internal combustion engine (M1), operating by admitting a carburated mixture or by admitting fresh air with the direct or indirect injection of fuel, the engine having at least one cylinder (1) defining a variable-volume combusti... | 03/05/2002 |
| 5325824 | Split cycle internal combustion engine A split cycle internal combustion engine having located wholly within the combustion chamber (13) of the firing cylinder (10) and spaced from the walls thereof a hollow dome (14) with the closed head of the dome (14) adjacent to the head (11) of the firin... | 07/05/1994 |
| 5299537 | Metered induction two cycle engine A metered induction two cycle engine is presented. In accordance with the metered induction two cycle engine, an aspirating cylinder (or pulsing air-charger) is connected to a combustion cylinder by a voluminous transport duct having a valve disposed ther... | 04/05/1994 |
| 5050570 | Open cycle, internal combustion Stirling engine An open-cycle internal-combustion Stirling engine having two pistons coupled by a rhombic drive which define a combustion chamber and a compression chamber, within either a single cylinder or two cylinders, and a manifold enabling flow of the working flui... | 09/24/1991 |
| 4422414 | Piston and cylinder arrangement including means to vary the compression ratio A piston which is reciprocable within a cylinder is rigidly connected to a bearing housing by a connection. The connection comprises a rigid tube fixed to the piston and a rigid rod fixed to the housing which extends within the tube coaxially thereof. The... | 12/27/1983 |
| 4094278 | Two-stroke combustion engines A two-stroke combustion engine with intake and exhaust ports which are indirectly or directly controllable in accordance with the reciprocating motion of a working piston in a cylinder space, wherein at one side of the piston there is a working chamber ac... | 06/13/1978 |
