Definitions
- the present invention fights against internal combustion engines, especially rotary engines.
- a rotary engine used in an automobile or the like includes a rotor housing, a side housing and an intermediate housing provided so as to sandwich the rotor housing from both sides, and a port rotatably housed in the rotor housing. , Side seal grooves formed on both sides of the ⁇ -side facing the side housing and the intermediate media nosing, side seals housed in the side seal grooves, and a rotor. It is equipped with an Abex seal provided on the top of the.
- the end face of the portion protruding from the side seal groove faces the side face and the side plate facing the end face. It is urged against the stored spring and slidably abuts, thereby achieving primary airtightness with respect to the engine working chamber, and the side surface on the rotor shaft side faces the side surface.
- the side walls of the side seals are slidably urged by gas pressure or the like, thereby achieving secondary airtightness with respect to the engine working chamber.
- the side seal Since the side seal has a long length and a different distance from the center of the rotor at each part, the magnitude and direction of the sliding resistance and the inertial force at each part are different. For this reason, the side seal contacts the side wall surface of the side seal groove in an unnatural posture, and furthermore, the contact friction resistance between the side seal and the side wall surface of the side seal groove is large (the friction coefficient is large). 0.1 to 0.3), when pressed against the side wall surface of the side seal groove by the gas pressure from the engine working chamber, even if it receives a lifting force by the gas pressure in the side seal groove. However, the behavior of the side seal is poor, and the area along the side housing is not sufficiently formed.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a side seal in a side seal cleaning of a side seal and a sliding of an intermediate medium nozzle.
- Surface mobility thereby eliminating the formation of gaps between the end faces of the side seals and the sliding surfaces of the side housing and the intermediate housing, deteriorating the secondary airtightness
- An object of the present invention is to provide a rotary engine that can more reliably achieve primary airtightness. Disclosure of the invention
- the object is to provide a rotor housing, a side housing and an intermediate medium that are disposed so as to sandwich the rotor housing from both sides, and a rotatable housing in the rotor housing.
- the spring includes a spring for pressing the side housing and the intermediate medium nosing, and a linear roller between the side wall surface of the side seal and the side seal and housed along the side seal. Achieved by the rotary engine.
- the object is to provide a side housing, ⁇ -one housing, a rotor rotatably housed in the rotor housing, a side seal groove facing the side housing, and a side seal groove formed in the side seal groove.
- a screen is formed on a side surface of the side seal on the rotor axis side, and a linear roller is housed in this groove.
- a rotor of the side seal is provided.
- a step is formed on the side face on the axis side, and a linear aperture is accommodated in a recess of the step.
- a thin plate with which a linear roller is in contact may be attached to the side wall surface of the side seal groove facing the portion of the side seal on the rotor axis side.
- a groove for accommodating the roller may be formed.
- the number of linear rollers may be one, but a plurality of linear rollers may be arranged in parallel, or a plurality of linear rollers may be arranged in series. In the case where a plurality of linear rollers are arranged in parallel and a plurality of linear rollers are arranged in series, if the positions of the ends of the opposed linear rollers in the two adjacent linear ⁇ -rows are different from each other, the airtightness is low. The bottom can be prevented.
- the side seal housed in the side seal cleaner is urged by the spring, and its end surface is slidably abutted on the side housing.
- the side seal consists of a linear roller and a side seal; Linear or rolling contact with the side wall surface of the wing makes it act lightly and promptly, ensuring that the side surface of the side window and the intermediate node is along the sliding surface, ensuring sufficient airtightness. Is done.
- the present invention it is possible to improve the location along the side seal and the sliding surface of the side housing and the intermediate housing, and to reliably prevent the leakage of the combustion gas and the like, thereby achieving the primary Airtightness can always be maintained, and the output can be improved by eliminating over-ripening of the engine and ignition of misses.
