Abstract
A rotary piston and cylinder device () comprising a rotor (), a stator () and a rotatable shutter (), the rotor comprising a piston () which extends from the rotor into a working chamber, the rotor and the stator together defining a working chamber, the shutter arranged to extend through the working chamber and forming a partition therein, and the shutter comprising a slot which allows passage of the piston therethrough, a bearing () which mounts the rotor relative to the stator, the rotor comprising a formation () which extends substantially axially away from the chamber, and the formation being radially outward of the bearing and extending around the axis of rotation, and the formation comprising a surface which at least in part defines a space between the rotor and the stator, and at least part of that space and/or the formation overlaps in an axial direction with the bearing.
