An engineer named Tasca designed a rolling engine in 1913.

-The construction was done under the name MIRT (see).

-The engine in question had a fixed eccentric and an external rotating drum.

-This eccentric could be considered the piston. (in a way a Wankel with the main parts rotating in reverse).

-It gave 200 HP, and it measured 60 cm in total external diameter.

-He also made a classic four-cylinder in-line engine that same year, with a power of 55/60 CV.
