Abstract
A rotary piston internal combustion engine of trochoidal construction with spark ignition and fuel injection, comprises a housing made up of a peripheral wall portion with a two-lobed inner surface having first and second nodes on its minor axis, and two parallel side portions. A three-cornered piston in the housing is rotatably mounted on the eccentric of an eccentric-carrying shaft, the piston having a recess in each flank and defining together with the inner peripheral surface of the housing working chambers of variable volume. Provisions are made in the housing near the first minor-axis node, an inlet port with a fuel metering device and an exhaust port for the escape of the burnt gases, and in which at least one sparking plug and an injection nozzle are arranged in the zone of the inner peripheral surface in which compression takes place.
