What is that?
Type designation, manufacturer and operating principle are required.

Correct, but the type designation is not complete. Locked for fromwien.

Yes, this is the DKM 54 rotary piston engine, built at NSU by Felix Wankel. The puzzle picture shows the cutaway model from the "Deutsches Museum" in Munich.
