Disclosed is a self-sealing valve and cylinder configuration, an internal combustion rotary engine, or pump or compressor, with a rotating central housing which includes at least one cylinder aperture, a non-rotating timing pulley mount concentrically positioned within the central housing, a crank shaft eccentrically mounted within the central housing, a valve housing attached to the central housing and which retains a cylinder between it and the central housing, a piston within each cylinder, the piston rod is eccentrically mounted to the crank shaft, and a rotating valve within each valve housing.

[ I claim:] [1.] A self-sealing valve and cylinder configuration in an internal combustion rotary engine, which comprises:a. a central housing including at least one cylinder aperture;b. a valve housing corresponding to each cylinder aperture in the central housing, the valve housing being attached

[ I claim:] [1.] A self-sealing valve and cylinder configuration in an internal combustion rotary engine, which comprises:a. a central housing including at least one cylinder aperture;b. a valve housing corresponding to each cylinder aperture in the central housing, the valve housing being attached to the central housing;c. at least one valve rotatably mounted within each valve housing;d. a cylinder mounted on the central housing and in relative movable relation to the valve, each cylinder comprising:i. an interior chamber with a proximal end open to the central housing, and with a terminal end which includes a transfer port; ande. a piston in relative reciprocating relation within the cylinder; such that combustion within the cylinder imparts a force on the terminal wall of the cylinder, causing the cylinder to move toward the valve, thereby creating an effective seal between the cylinder and the valve. [2.] An internal combustion engine as recited in claim 1, and in which the valve includes an intake port and an exhaust port, which alternately correspond to the transfer port in the cylinder.
