About Us

MotorPat, LLC owns the patent assignment rights for the revolutionary internal combustion engine invented by Walter Schmied. At the heart of the engine is the hypocycloidal crankshaft which allows for in-line reciprocal motion of each engine cylinder to be converted to rotating motion. This unique configuration results in more power with less weight, lower emissions, and very low fuel consumption.

Bonner Motor Corp. is currently researching and developing this technology for the United States Government - See the NASA Technical Report:

Overcoming Present-Day Powerplant Limitations Via Unconventional Engine Configurations

Excerpt:
"The Bonner Engine is unmatched in its ability to operate at maximum efficiency over its entire RPM range, and in its ability to deliver constant power at any desired altitude. It is expected to be the most fuel efficient intermittent combustion engine ever conceived."

Change

"Don't go backwards, you've already been there."
Ray Charles

"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future."
John F. Kennedy

"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew."
Abraham Lincoln

"We are all hooked on oil, and oil is getting scarcer. Like it or not, changes are coming. But do we understand our choices, or even the variables that control our choices?"
