Introduction

From the many approaches that were made to build a motor with only rotating parts that differe from the well known Piston Combustion Motor, only the Wankel Motor was developed up to an commercialy acceptable engine. Main disadvantage of the Wankel Motor is his large surface/volume ratio for a given volume and compression, this leads to bad efficency and the need of big water and oil cooling systems. The Gyroscope Combustion Motor is the most general design of a motor with only rotating parts, with the Wankel Motor as a particular solution of it. The surface/volume ratio from the Gyroscope Combustion Motor can be selected independent of a given volume and compression, avoiding the above mentioned disadvantage of the Wankel design.
 
 

Working principle

The Gyroscope Combustion Motor is generated by a ring that rotates around his own symmetry axis, at the same time that it rotates around another axis that has a defined angle to the first axis. The movement performed by the ring is the movement of a gyroscope. With a ratio of 2/3 for the two angular velocities, variable chambers  required for a four strokes combustion motor are generated between the ring and the motor head. The same technique developed for the Wankel to make the chambers gastight and for lubrication can be used for the gyroscope motor.
