A rotary trochoidal compressor comprising a rotor mounted for planetary motion within a housing and in which the periphery of the rotor is substantially a hypotrochoid and the peripheral inner surface of the housing is the outer envelope of the rotor and in which a radially movable or elastic seal means is provided in the housing at the hypotrochoid generating points and the intake and outlet ports are so disposed in the housing on opposite sides of each hypotrochoid generating point such that each working chamber closes to an intake port before it opens to an outlet port, the working chamber being formed between the seal means at the rotor nose portions or between seal means at a rotor nose portion and at a hypotrochoid generating point.

A rotary mechanism such as a compressor, expansion engine or the like comprising: a. an outer body comprising a pair of axially-spaced end walls and an intermediate wall defining a cavity therebetween; b. an inner body mounted for relative rotation within said cavity and having its axis eccentric to the axis of said outer body, the peripheral surface of said inner body being substantially a hypotrochoid with three nose portions and the inner peripheral surface of said outer body intermediate wall being substantially the outer envelope of the hypotrochoidal peripheral surface of the inner body such that said intermediate wall peripheral surface has two diametrically opposed regions which generate said hypotrochoidal surface and such that a plurality of working chambers are formed between said inner body and said intermediate wall; c. said nose portions of the inner body having sealing cooperation with the inner surface of the housing intermediate wall; d. a radially movable seal bar carried by the outer body intermediate wall at each of said hypotrochoid generating regions and spring means for urging each seal bar into sealing contact with the hypotrochoid peripheral surface of the inner body; e. said outer body having intake and discharge ports so disposed on opposite sides of each said seal bar such that each working chamber moves out of communication with an intake port before it subsequently moves into communication with a discharge port; f. axially movable seal strip means carried by an end face of the inner body for sealing engagement with the adjacent outer body end wall, said seal strip means being disposed adjacent and parallel to but radially inwardly of the hypotrochoidal peripheral surface of the inner body; and g. an axially movable seal pin carried by said last-mentioned end wall of the outer body adjacent to each seal bar with each said seal pin having a recess for receiving an extension of the adjacent end of its associated seal bar, and spring means for urging said axially movable seal pin into sealing engagement with the adjacent portion of the end surface of the inner body extending from said disposed radially outwardly of said seal strip means and with the outer body intermediate wall being recessed adjacent to each seal pin to permit the seal pin to move axially into said sealing engagement with the end surface of the inner body.
