The cylinder development drawing shows 1 exhaust port and 11 transfer ports ( counting both ends).
I think the port below the exhaust feeds 2 further ports inside the exhaust.
However the cylinder section drawing doesn't show that transfer port below the exhaust, but it does show something in the exhaust!
Regarding the rings not touching the piston, I think perhaps something got lost in translation.
regarding those lines in the exhaust duct, couldn't it be as simple as left overs from an auxiliary port someone forgot to remove from the drawing?![]()
A couple of Ryger observations:
1. The primary drive and gearbox ratios are exactly the same as the VM engine on which it is based
2. The exhaust is also very close. All the 14 cone diameters are the same, both at the start and finish. The inside cone lengths are all the same, other than #2 which is a few mm longer. However The total outside length of cones #1 to #5 inclusive is 181.7 compared to 222 for the VM exhaust. I guess this will have an effect, including straightening out the pipe. Cones #7 and #9 also vary a tad, but within a bee's dick.
Honey or Bumble?
I think I'll need one of those clear plastic boxes crank the handle and see the engine turn to even begin to understand how this works.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
drawings seem pretty close
doesn't help building a model though either - features can still have questionable function
the groove in the plate is to accommodate piston skirt - doesn't go all the way through
Haha just realised my cylinder is on backwards
That drawing shows the cylinder tight against the protruding seal holder, but in other pictures there is room for the upper piston exhaust port slide cover on one side of the seal holder.
Looks like 5 or 6 mm, maybe more. I'm sure that gap will be consistent around the perimeter of the seal holder and cylinder.
Still not a lot of space for good transfer flow, but of course the gas is under pressure entering those lower ports.
So will this thing stall, or not start under 10,000?
Who`s going to be the first to tell him to raise the exhaust port floor?![]()

I suppose the patent might explain it all at least a little better than just the pictures. Anyone found it now that it has gone through the patent process ?
