AxyCam
is an engine that produces a continuous and uniform rotation, converting
a linear motion of reciprocating pistons through a three-dimensional
cam.
The engine can be powered by compressed air or any gas or liquid under
pressure.
This mechanism is very versatile, can be an alternative to existing
combustion engines, hydraulic and electric, just their simple construction,
high efficiency and high torque.
Depending on the destination functional design of the cam motor is calculated
to meet the desired torque and speed characteristics.
Use compressed air to produce motor movement allows use in applications
where existing solutions are almost impossible to use or very expensive,
such as in areas with explosive gases and flammable liquids for medical
systems with sensors sensitive to electromagnetic fields and electrostatic
parasites, etc. ...
This engine powered by compressed air can be a possible solution for
building cars with absolutely clean air storage tanks at high pressure.
The engine can be used to recover the gas or vapor pressure directly
released into the atmosphere in the various production processes of
various industries and transform them into electrical energy by coupling
the engine with a electrical generator.
The mechanism is able to produce reversible compressing air and storing
it, for example, wind or hydrodynamic energy and converting it into
electricity when needed.
Although the entire process and then re-compress the compressed air
is lower than other forms of energy use, using this system may bring
some benefits anyway, because of the possibility of immediate application
in most existing applications, especially from an economic standpoint
in the building due to the simplicity and efficiency of the system.
Since
this concept don't need anymore the joints on the piston, we have developed
a prototype using normal compressed air cylinders as you can see in
the movie.
The
engine can work with to any type of fuel, using the appropriate changes.
Advantages: Compared to a conventional motor-drive shaft rod, the current
system has some advantages:
-
Constant Torque throughout all the piston race
- Don't need a flywheel to overcome the dead points
- Very low vibration
- Easy construction
- Powered by compressed air results in an engine with zero pollution
Specifications:
Engine
consists of: 3 pneumatic cylinders (standard)
Cylinder
caracteristics: diameter 32, stroke 100mm
Measurements
registered feeding the engine with air at 7 bar:
-
400 (rot/min)
-
Power = 0.7 CV
The
first impression: As compressed
air engine we found easy to synchronize and mounting, starting very
easy. The RPM obtained is relatively low, but with a very high Torque.
Not so heavy (even as the first prototype) has excellent quality and
wide possibilities for use as engine for automotive, but also in industry.
