Abstract (en)

A piston and cylinder machine, such as an internal combustion engine, has a pair of fixed coaxial cylinders (1A,1B) mounted on a crankcase which rotatably supports a rotary crankshaft (2) with the cylinders on opposite sides of the crankshaft. Each cylinder (1A,1B) has a respective piston (3A,3B) slidable in it. One piston (3A) is connected to a first crankpin (5) of the crankshaft by a single connecting rod (4A). The other piston (3B) is connected by second and third connecting rods (4B,4C) to second and third crankpins which are separated by the first crankpin and spaced from it by 180 DEG . <IMAGE>
