SignUp Now!Is there a way to translate that page into English?
Just watch the video and follow the tortured path of the support bearing balls that swim in products of combustion while converting the back and forth motion of the pistons into rotational force.
Wow. somebody has invented a motor with the torque of a Wankel, the complexity of gyroscope and the life span of a first gen "budget roller" cam.
Interesting theory! I wonder what the volumetric efficiency would be?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
But in all seriousness, I wonder how far it is from practical reality. Not having any sound or english translation of the actions.
I remember reading about all the objections in the old days of going from “Mechanical brakes” to “Hydraulic brakes”.
No one thought it would work (YES, it is b4 my time :tongue: )
Heck, even going to “Drive By wire” concepts are hard to grasp.
This is a perfect example of a “Paradigm Shift”.

What is a Paradigm Shift?
I think it is fascinating that we are still working AND coming up with brand new ideas for a better air pump.
One thing I learned over the years: Technology waits for no-one!

I think you misunderstood my post.
Quit being so positive will ya?
Some things take time my friend ..... The first internal combustion Otto Cycle engine did not start with the LS2 set-up either.
It is a great idea and looks like they have a working proto type.
How long and how good etc, I am not sure, but, the Wright Brothers only went 15 seconds (??) on the first flight.
In this design, there is a minimum amount of moving parts and it has a great weight advantage. I think the internals/ "balls" are made of some ceramic.
