Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
Try putting your elbow on the table with your palm up and dropping a bowling ball from the ceiling on to your palm, and then rethink your statement. The pressure in a combustion chamber at (TDC) is about 2000 psi it has been tested and just like when the ball hits your palm. Then move your...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
It is a fact that it takes as much energy or force to stop a mass in motion, as to start it moving again. If that energy or force drives a shaft at a total mechanical advantage at 90 degrees is that not more efficient? If the heavy pistons push against the cylinders back and forth through...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
I will go back about 19 years to when I was experimenting with #1 the Phenomena of centrifugal force, precession of a gyro, and action reaction, in an effort to produce motion without friction or traction ( in other words to make two counter rotating flywheels and or swinging arms to move in...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
Hi Russ your right 20% is probable a low number with modern day technology, and thermodynamics is important but i base my claim on tests from models years ago and i have answers for any question. It only makes sense that 4 power in one cycle is better then 1 in four and 90% is better then 0% to...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
Danger maybe you are smart enough or are you to tell me y all internal combustion engine are only about 20% efficient i believe it is because of the crank?? when the piston is at top dead center and it fires all the energy has no place to go but into heat,and then when the crank moves down, and...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
Thanks for the reply my engine has four power strokes per cycle and It always fires 90 degrees to the crank. most (ICEs) fires one power stroke every forth cycle and then at (TDC). I don't much about thermodynamics but do know they (ICEs) are only about 20% efficient for the last 150 years I...- enginebob

Automotive Three-piston engine with rack-gear output design
Hi i would like to post for discussion my design of a new type internal combustion engine Please post your comments.The following information is to explain the description and operation. In drawing #1 The engine has three heavy pistons all attached together; two small and one large one in...- enginebob
