Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20130025565MULTI-ROTOR ROTARY ENGINE ARCHITECTURE - A multi-rotor internal combustion engine has a plurality of rotary internal combustion units axially distributed along an engine axis. Each unit has a rotor mounted on an eccentric portion of the shaft inside a housing. The housings of adjacent rotary internal combustion units have different angular positions about the engine axis so as to angularly offset the housing from adjacent housings, which may provide for a more uniform temperature distribution around the housings and may also or instead allow optimising of the balancing of pressure induced side loads on the shaft of the rotors.01-31-2013
20130025566ROTARY INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH VARIABLE VOLUMETRIC COMPRESSION RATIO - A method and apparatus for controlling an air input in a rotary engine, including selectively controlling inlet ports communicating with an internal combustion cavity of the engine, the ports located serially downstream of the exhaust port. The inlet ports are controlled to alter air intake at various engine operational stages, such as start up, idle, etc., to allow for varying operational requirements to be met. For example: when a power demand on the engine is lower than a predetermined threshold, control may be effected by opening a primary inlet port and closing a secondary inlet port; and, when the power demand exceeds the predetermined threshold, control may be effected by opening the primary inlet port and opening the secondary inlet port, the secondary inlet port being in communication with the exhaust port throughout portions of the engine revolution to purge exhaust gases.01-31-2013
20130028768ROTARY INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH EXHAUST PURGE - In one aspect, described is a rotary engine having a purge port located rearwardly of the inlet port and forwardly of the exhaust port along a direction of the revolutions of the rotor, the purge port being in communication with the exhaust port through each of the chambers along a respective portion of each revolution, and the inlet and outlet ports being relatively located such that a volumetric compression ratio of the engine is lower than a volumetric expansion ratio of the engine.01-31-2013

20110296013SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING HYBRID ON DEMAND SERVICES TO A WORK UNIT - The present document describes a method and system for providing Hybrid On Demand (HOD) software and/or data to a plurality of normal nodes associated with a work unit. The normal nodes are serviced via two or more parent nodes using different communication networks. Normal nodes, which are connected to the Local Area Network (LAN) of the work unit, may receive software and/or data services from a local node via the LAN, and normal nodes which are outside of the LAN may receive software and/or data services from a SUPR node via a Wide Area Network (WAN) such as the internet. After synchronization with one the normal nodes, the parent nodes synchronize the updated data with each other, and then they push the updated data to all the normal nodes associated with the work unit to mirror the same data on all the normal nodes. Frequencies of synchronization and provision of software and/or data services and/or updates is governed by a set of synchronization rules that are embedded in the business layer of the nodes. This scenario may also be used for synchronizing data in a cache cloud manner between the different nodes of the wide and the local networks.12-01-2011
