THANKS for the post! I am always interested in new technology!..........
Very cool. What is missing from the animation is the cylinder, which is still what is driving the whole thing. So whats really different is the replacement of the main shaft set up with the direct cam things. It's not a Wankle variant as I first thought.
I don't get this comment at all "The piston assembly slides rigidly through the block eliminating piston to cylinder-bore contact."
How can you eliminate piston to bore contact. Presumably the piston still has to be tight to the cylinder to facilitate controlled combustion, and preventing fuel from blowing back into the cams (which must require lubrication).
Anyone get what they are talking about?
It looks too bulky for motorycle application.
What's wrong with the Wankle? Why did only Mazda use it?
