Mini Free Piston Engine

詳細技術說明

Miniature Engine and Compressor Package for Use in Pneumatic ApplicationsA design for a free piston engine and compressor package has been developed to deliver power in the form of compressed air. The system, which can be fabricated at a miniature scale for portable use and deliver up to 10 watts of power, is ideal for use in orthotic, power tools and robotic applications. The free piston engine does not involve a crankshaft, so is much easier to miniaturize. The device incorporates homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI), which negates the need for active control, reducing implementation costs.MN-IP Try and BuyThis technology is available via a standard negotiated license agreement. Contact Larry Micek for specific details.Fluid Power Delivers High Power DensityFluid power actuations have several advantages over motor mechanical drives including higher power density and load holding without consuming energy. Conventionally, small fluid power sources are powered by a lithium ion battery; making use of the higher energy density hydrocarbons, miniature free piston engines can achieve lighter weight and longer run time compared to a battery/motor package. With its simple design, the device can also be easily scaled up or down for higher or lower power output target.BENEFITS OF A FREE PISTON ENGINE WITH HOMOGENEOUS CHARGE COMPRESSION IGNITION (HCCI)Up to 10W of powerLonger run time and lighter weight compared to a battery motor packageSmall enough for orthotics, power tool and robotic applications
