DEFINITION

Classification: 60/597

(under the class definition) Apparatus comprising the combustion of (1) an internal combustion engine of the type where fuel is burned in an expansible working chamber means, said engine may or may not do work other than to produce combustion products; and (2) a fluid actuated motor means actuated in whole or in part by (a) motive fluid comprising said combustion products, or (b) motive fluid generated by said combustion products or by other energy which is unused to do work but which is exhausted or otherwise lost by said engine.
