Cylindrical Energy Module

Cylindrical Energy Module

The Cylindrical Energy Module is a sine-waved Swashplate engine that can also be used as a stand-alone pump powered by an alternate source. The rotating swash-plate rotor assembly is moved back and forth via piston drive pins which follow a stationary Sinusoidal Cam Track that encircles the rotor assembly. For more information on how that works please check out the Swashplate engine page.

The new pump design has been used in fire extinguishers, as well as mobile biological and chemical control units for the US military.

Inventor's claims of pump design:

  • Only 7 moving parts
  • Virtually clog-free operation
  • Its weight is about one-sixth that of an equal-capacity unit
  • Its output is 24 times that of most pumps or compressors of equal bore and stroke, and twice that of most engines.
  • Can be made out of thermoplastics for light weight uses (pumps only).

This version of the pump/compressor was invented by Eddie Paul, president of EP Industries in El Segundo, CA. (patented in 1993)
