A variable volume chamber such as defined by a cylinder and piston has closed circuit connections to a given gas and a given liquid for which the gas has a chemical affinity when in physical contact therewith. By bringing the liquid and gas together in the confines of the closed chamber, the rapid absorption of the gas creates a vacuum or implosion effect which results in the piston being driven by the pressure differential further into the cylinder. The same process can be used to drive a rotary engine, there being required no heat, ignition system, or exhaust to the atmosphere of gas.

An implosion engine including, in combination: a. a stator body having an inner wall defining an annular cavity of given diameter; b. a rotor body of diameter smaller than said given diameter eccentrically mounted in said cavity to be tangent to said inner wall at one point whereby a closed volume is defined between the inner wall and periphery of said rotor body, said stator body including an inlet passage adjacent to one side of said point of tangency communicating with said volume and an outlet passAge adjacent to the other side of said point of tangency; c. at least one movable vane means extending from the periphery of said rotor to said inner wall to define a closed volume between one side of said vane means and said point of tangency; d. a closed gas system including a gas container holding a given gas under 2 to 20 atmospheres pressure connected to said inlet passage; e. a liquid container holding a given liquid for which said gas has a chemical affinity; f. pump means connected to said liquid container and to said stator body for introducing, upon actuation, a spray mist of liquid into the volume defined between the opposite side of said vane means and said point of tangency; g. means responsive to rotation of said rotor to a given position for actuating said pump means; and, h. a closed exhaust container connected to said outlet passage whereby said rotor is caused to rotate by gas under pressure passing into said inlet passage and acting against said one side of said vane means, the gas subsequently being subjected to a spray mist of said liquid when said rotor reaches said given position for actuating said pump means, said spray mist of liquid absorbing said gas to thereby create a vacuum in the volume defined between said other side of said vane means and said point of tangency thereby increasing the pressure differential across said vane means to cause continuous rotation of said rotor, water resulting from said mist with said absorbed gas therein being exhausted through said outlet passage to said exhaust container.
