Abstract

A rotary internal combustion engine comprising an annular stator (10) which defines a circular-section chamber (11) in which a rotor (12) is rotatably mounted for rotation about the axis of the chamber (11). The rotor comprises radially-extending cylinders (15A, 15B, 15C) having outer ends in sealing but sliding contact with the inner surface of the annular side wall of the chamber (11). Pistons (16A,16B,16C) are displaceably mounted for axial movement in respective cylinders (15A, 15B, 15C) and are connected to a reaction point (18) disposed eccentrically of the rotor (12). The stator (10) has an ignition source (22), a fuel inlet port (21), an air inlet port (20) and an exhaust port (23) extend through the stator (10) into the chamber at respective circumferential positions for registering with the outer end of the cylinders (15A, 15B, 15C) at respective rotational positions thereof.
