Section 21.--CIRCULAR AND RECIPROCATING MOTION.

=392. The ordinary type of piston-rod and crank motion= as universally

used.

=393. Watt’s substitute for the above,= or “sun-and-planet” gear. Note

that the crank shaft revolves twice for each double stroke or revolution

of the engine. The crank being a loose link only, the planet wheel does

not revolve.

=394. Epicycloidal parallel motion and crank.= The pinion is one-half

the diameter of the wheel on pitch line, and the connecting pin is fixed

on the pitch line of pinion.

=395. Bernay’s patent crank motion;= radius of crank = stroke × ·25.

[Illustration: 381.-395.]

=396. Slot and crank motion.= The pin usually runs in a sliding block.

=397. Segment pinion and double rack motion.=

=398. Rack and pinion.= The pinion is sometimes made so as to be driven

on one stroke and run loose on the other, by a clutch or ratchet motion,

such as Nos. 1135, 1178, or their equivalents. See Section 62.

=399. Hydraulic multiplying gear.= See also Section 42.

=400. Slotted crosshead and disc crank.= The pin runs in a sliding block

in a groove in the covered crosshead.

=401. Stannah’s patent,= works vertically; the fly-wheel centre ~A~

oscillates on the end of a link ~B~, allowing the crank pin to run in a

straight line.

=402. Screw and fly nut.= May be made to produce continuous rotary

motion by fitting the nut with a clutch motion similar to 1135 or 1178,

so as to grip the wheel only on one stroke.

=403. Friction gear;= the pinion is driven by the reciprocating rod and

runs loose on the out stroke, the weighted lever with roller giving

frictional grip on the in stroke.

=404. Lever and roller crank pin.=

=405. Treadle motion,= with cord and spring. For continuous rotary

motion the pinion must be fitted as described with No. 402.

=406. Ball and socket crank motion.= The crank pin is always horizontal.

=407. Segment lever,= with cord and pulley.

=408. Double geared cranks,= used for driving rotary blowers, &c.

=409. J. Warwick’s patent;= circular motion converted into reciprocating

by a diagonal sheave grooved as shown; the crank arm centre is in line

with the centre of the sheave, as shown in dotted lines.

=410. Rolling sectors,= with thrust motion to crank pin. Used in

Outridge’s box engine with double pistons; this gives a constant

rectilinear thrust to the crank pin at all points in the stroke, and no

part is in tension.

[Illustration: 396.-410.]

=411. Weight and multiplying pulleys,= used for clock motions, driving

any light machines, &c.

=412. Oscillating clutch arm and ring,= silent feed motion.

=413. Slot and roller motion for crank.= The crank pin has a friction

roller, which runs in a covered slot in the crosshead.

=414. Trammel gear;= one revolution of the wheel to two double strokes

of piston.

=415. Segmental vanes= (in a semicircular case), driven by a disc crank

and pin, running on the upper centre, giving motion by links to two arms

fixed to the two vanes, which have independent motion. Used as a pumping

or blowing machine.

=416. Circular into reciprocating motion= by revolving arm ~A~ carrying

the two pinions, the point at end of arm ~B~ describes a vertical line

four times the length of arm ~B~, the large wheel ~C~ is fixed, and

motion is given to the arm ~B~. May be used as a piston rod and crank

motion.

=417. Trammel gear;= the slotted cross moves in a right line.

=418. Slot link and treadle,= driving the pinion on both strokes by

friction on the inside of link alternately at the upper and under sides.

=419. Chain and roller treadle motion.=

=420. Reciprocating wheel and crank motion.=

=421. Velocipede pattern= foot treadle.

=422. Double crossheads,= separated by distance rods so arranged as to

allow the crank and connecting rod to work between them. See No. 681.

=423. Mangle rack and pinion reciprocating gear.= The rack moves in a

right line, the pinion working round it by moving up and down the slot

at each end of the travel of the rack.

=424. Mode of connecting an oscillating lever= by a sliding joint to any

reciprocating part, such as a steam hammer head, engine crosshead, &c.

See Nos. 893, 894.

=425. Suspended treadle motion.=

=426. Eccentric and sliding bush motion= for a double piston engine.

=427. Rocking lever motion= by gearing and a tied crank pin. The upper

pinion drives the crank disc on the middle centre at each revolution, of

which the lever with the gearing attached oscillates from side to side

as shown.

[Illustration: 411.-427.]

=428. Crank pin and slotted lever= for giving a variable speed to the

connecting rod. See No. 1195.

=429. Side gudgeon crank motion.=

=430. Bell crank and disc crank motion,= the bell crank centre having

horizontal as well as vertical movement.

=431. Worm wheel and screw reciprocating motion= by means of a tied

crank pin. Useful for slow speeds.

=432. Treadle, cord and pulley crank motion.=

=433. Circular into reciprocating motion,= or _vice versâ_.

=434. Another form of sun-and-planet gear.= The ring is stationary, and

the bush on which the planet wheel revolves is slotted to fit the ring;

the planet wheel is fixed to the connecting rod end.

=435. Bent shaft and arm motion.=

=436. Reciprocating motion= by a return thread screw and lever.
