Inventor claims piston motor could revolutionize motors
Edwin L. Rice, Washington inventor, touts a Roller motor with a novel piston design that he says will overhaul the motor industry.

The Rice Manufacturing and Aerial Transport Corporation has been developing the device for years and expects soon to market it.
