1. An apparatus (10) comprising:

  • a shaft (18) which defines and is rotatable about a first rotational axis (30);

    an axle (20) defining a second rotational axis (32), the shaft (18) extending through the axle (20);

    a first piston member (22) provided on the shaft (18), the first piston member (22) extending from the axle (20) towards a distal end of the shaft (18);

    a rotor (16) carried on the axle (20);

    the rotor (16) comprising a first chamber (34a),the first piston member (22) extending across the first chamber (34a);

    whereby;

    the rotor (16) and axle (20) are rotatable with the shaft (18) around the first rotational axis (30); and

    the rotor (16) is pivotable about the axle (20) about the second rotational axis (32)to permit relative pivoting motion between the rotor (16) and the first piston member (22) as the rotor (16) rotates about the first rotational axis (30).
