Ladies and Gentlemen,
Combustion engines don't only produce transversal waves of energy (power output and torque) but longitudinal waves as well - which usually only destroy the clutch (if not hydraulic) and go to waste... This effect must occur especially at "boxer engines" in which the transversal waves created by the pistons extinguish each other but as energy doesn't get lost only transforms longitudinal waves must appear within the crankshaft... (Otherwise boxer engines could be a very interesting combination of gas turbines and combustion engines just like the "Wankel-engine...")
Now if you don't want to let the longitudinal waves destroy the clutch you can implement a wheel that stands at a right angle to the crankshaft in order to lead the energy of the longitudinal waves away from the engine and the clutch and towards the gear-box... (The energy should be transmitted from this new wheel to the usual gear-box so that there is only one mechanical gear-box in a car which means less weight, less parts and a better efficiency...)
In the end you can expect from the usage of the longitudinal waves occuring in a combustion engine:
a) a clutch of a longer life;
b) a better fuel-efficiency by using those energies which are meant to make the run of combustion engines smoother and which usually go to waste...
In a similar way you could also use the transversal waves created in gas turbines/ jet engines (in terms of the spinning exhaust gases), not only the usual longitudinal waves... The newest jet engines with a zig-zag ending used in the Boeing 747 and 787 aircraft are a very good example for increasing the efficiency of jet engines thus...
Best wishes, Joseph de la Mikula and Team
