Abstract

An engine propulsion system is configured to utilize bursts of pressurized media in order to transmit mechanical energy. The engine propulsion system includes at least one cannon, wherein each cannon is configured to displace the pressurized media and further includes a firing pin casing configured to accommodate a firing pin. The firing pin is configured to transmit the mechanical energy when moved thus allowing the media to exit the cannon.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An engine propulsion system, configured to utilize bursts of a pressurized media in order to transmit mechanical energy; the engine propulsion system comprising:
 at least one cannon, wherein the at least one cannon is configured to displace the pressurized media and further comprising a casing that internally houses a firing pin;   a first pressure media input, through the casing and configured to receive a first pressurized media;   a first pressure cannon port entrance, through the cannon, and aligned with the first pressure media input such that the first pressurized media travels through the casing and into the cannon;   a second pressure media input, through the casing and configured to receive a second pressurized media;   a second pressure cannon port entrance, through the cannon, and aligned with the second pressure media input such that the second pressurized media travels through the casing and into the cannon;   the firing pin further comprises a stern connected to an obstruction cylinder with a stem; wherein the first pressure cannon port entrance is proximate the hat and the second pressure cannon port entrance is proximate the stern;   a spring, joined to the casing and the firing pin;   wherein a first mode of operation the first pressurized media linearly displaces the obstruction cylinder toward the second pressure cannon port entrance;   wherein a second mode of operation the second pressurized media linearly displaces the obstruction cylinder toward the first pressure cannon port entrance.   
     
     
         2 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , further comprising: a first stern seal and a second stern seal attached to the stern wherein the second mode of operation, the stern blocks the second pressure cannon port entrance while the first stern seal and the second stern seal prevent the second pressurized media from entering the cannon. 
     
     
         3 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , further comprising: a hat, configured within the cannon and attached to a hat seal, wherein the first mode of operation, the obstruction cylinder and the hat seal prevent the second pressurized media from exiting the cannon; wherein the second mode of operation, the second pressurized media travels around the hat seal, past the obstruction cylinder and exits the cannon generating energy. 
     
     
         4 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; the media propulsion system further comprises: a reservoir which contains the media. 
     
     
         5 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: a pump configured to pump the media. 
     
     
         6 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: at least one pressure intensifier to condition the media for pressurization. 
     
     
         7 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: at least one check valve. 
     
     
         8 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: at least one accumulator attached to a regulator and is configured to accumulate the media. 
     
     
         9 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: at least one solenoid attached to the firing pin casing and configured to disperse the media. 
     
     
         10 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , further comprising a firing pin tube mechanically coupled to a tube seal proximate a tube media exit wherein a second pressure media is discharged through the tube media exit causing propulsion. 
     
     
         11 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon has one exit port. 
     
     
         12 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is a plurality of cannons and the plurality of cannons share an exit port. 
     
     
         13 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is configured to operate in a synchronized mode of operation. 
     
     
         14 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 13 , wherein the synchronized mode of operation uses at least one motor. 
     
     
         15 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is configured to operate in an alternating mode of operation. 
     
     
         16 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 15 , wherein the alternating mode of operation uses at least one motor. 
     
     
         17 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an axel mechanically coupled to the at least one cannon;   wherein the at least one cannon creates the mechanical energy by turning the axel.   
     
     
         18 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 ; wherein a surface is sealed and covered in order to prevent injury which otherwise could be caused by exposure to the surface. 
     
     
         19 . The engine propulsion system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cannon is proximate a media propulsion system; wherein the media propulsion system further comprises: at least one safety relief valve.
