In 1910, Dr. Huth of Berlin made a fan-shape engine that, although it looks like a Farcot or REP, etc., it has a characteristic that differentiates it from those. From the year 1910.
-It has 6 cylinders placed in three levels of two in two. If we look at the photo we know that the crankshaft has to have three crankpin journals.

-The two front cylinders, located at 9:30 and 12:30, coincide on the first crankpin journal. On the second crankpin journal are the two cylinders located at 10:30 and 1:30 and in the third row are the two cylinders located at 11:30 and 2:30. The position is understood as that of the hour hand on a clock.
-Giving 50 hp at 1,200 rpm, and weighing 90 Kgs results in almost 2 Kg per CV in the power to weight ratio.
