Rotary valve head

Abstract

The R.V.H. (Rotary Valve Head) is a three way valve system designed to replace the head and valve train of four stroke combustion engines. Valve opperations are carried out with one rotating component. This is accomplished by rotating a cylinder with a concave inside a chamber with three openings. These openings are the intake, exhaust and combination ports. The combination port and cylinder form the top of the combustion chamber. Two main benefits result. Less energy is consumed in this system than traditional valve systems. Also, larger chambers can be utilized for the flow of gasses into and out of the combustion chamber.

1 . I claim as my invention a valve chamber, with three passages, one being the intake port, one the exhaust port, and the other a combination port, which combines with a cylinder with a concave to form the top of the combustion chamber, successively opening and blocking channels through the ports as the cylinder rotates, achieving valve timing in a four stroke internal combustion engine.  
   
   
       2 . I claim a cylinder with a concave, used with a valve chamber to accomplish the above functions.
