Abstract

Rotary displacement machine having a housing and at least two twinned rotors of asymmetrical profile, the twinned rotors each made of a core on which projects a helicoidal thread which extends above the core like a tooth. The helicoidal thread having a first predetermined dimension in a direction radial to the longitudinal axis of the twinned rotors and above the surface of a rotor. The machine having a first flank with a position and length of arc predetermined such that the shape of the first flank and the shape of the second flank each connect to one of the opposite ends of a connecting segment which constitutes a helicoidal surface. The connecting segment having a second predetermined dimension in a direction radial to the longitudinal axis of the twinned rotors such that the ratio of the second dimension over the first dimension ranges between 0.005 and 0.1.
