=747. Is the ordinary “chain and sheave” multiplying gear,= unequally
geared, thus--
Ram end. Cylinder end.
With 1 sheave 1 sheave it is geared 3 to 1.
„ 2 „ 2 „ „ 5 to 1.
„ 3 „ 3 „ „ 7 to 1; &c.
=748. Is the same plan,= but equally geared--
Ram end. Cylinder end.
With 1 sheave No sheaves it is geared 2 to 1.
„ 2 „ 1 sheave „ 4 to 1.
„ 3 „ 2 „ „ 6 to 1; &c.
=749. An arrangement of the sheaves= suitable for vertical working,
geared 8 to 1.
=750. An arrangement of the sheaves= suitable for vertical working, but
geared 6 to 1.
[Illustration: 734.-750.]
=751. An arrangement of the sheaves= suitable for vertical working, but
geared 4 to 1.
=752. Stevens and Major’s patent= for horizontal working. The angle of
the chain helps to support the weight of the ram.
=753. Modification of 752,= sometimes used, and suitable for both
horizontal and vertical positions, with any required multiplication of
speed.
=754. Rack gear;= short stroke piston cylinder plan.
=755. Double rope vertical ram gear.=
=756. Arrangement with the sheaves= all at head of cylinder.
