An apparatus that can be utilized as an internal combustion engine, a compressor, a pump or the like has an indexer which defines a plurality of slots. A pinwheel has a plurality of pins which, when the pinwheel and the indexer are rotated, engaged a respective slot to form a compression chamber. As rotation of these two components continues, each pin sequentially engages a slot to continuously form compression chambers.
