Cam engine (original) (raw)
A cam engine is a reciprocating engine where, instead of the conventional crankshaft, the pistons deliver their force to a cam that is then caused to rotate. The output work of the engine is driven by this cam. Cam engines are deeply rooted in history. The first engine to get an airworthiness certificate from the United States government was, in fact, a radial cam engine. A variation of the cam engine, the (also the closely related wobble-plate engine), was briefly popular.

| dbo:abstract | A cam engine is a reciprocating engine where, instead of the conventional crankshaft, the pistons deliver their force to a cam that is then caused to rotate. The output work of the engine is driven by this cam. Cam engines are deeply rooted in history. The first engine to get an airworthiness certificate from the United States government was, in fact, a radial cam engine. A variation of the cam engine, the (also the closely related wobble-plate engine), was briefly popular. These are generally thought of as internal combustion engines, although they have also been used as hydraulic- and pneumatic motors. Hydraulic motors, particularly the swashplate form, are widely and successfully used. Internal combustion engines, though, remain almost unknown. (en) Un motor de levas (o también motor de leva) es un motor de combustión interna alternativo donde, en lugar del cigüeñal convencional, los pistones entregan su fuerza a una leva que luego se hace girar. El trabajo de salida del motor es impulsado por esta leva. Los motores de levas están profundamente arraigados en la historia. El primer motor en obtener un certificado de aeronavegabilidad del gobierno de los Estados Unidos fue, de hecho, un motor de levas radiales. Una variación del motor de levas, el fue brevemente popular. Generalmente se los considera motores de combustión interna, aunque también se han utilizado como motores hidráulicos y neumáticos. Los motores hidráulicos, en particular los de plato cíclico, se utilizan ampliamente y con éxito. Sin embargo, los motores de levas de combustión interna siguen siendo casi desconocidos. (es) |
