MECHANICAL MOVEMENTS POWERS AND DEVICES

 

Mechanical Movements explores the borders of inventive design through a review of the ingenuity, creativity and sheer brilliance of engineers and inventors that have artfully overcome obstacles with superior mechanical designs. It clearly and concisely describes and draws out the principles and facts in constructive and operative mechanics.  This book contains a huge collection images which illustrate a wide range of mechanical motions, devices, and technologies, and to places them in an excellent format for ready reference.

Mechanical concepts and details are ideally presented to the mind by dia­grams or illustrated forms. This book provides a simple and fast method for understanding the exact conditions of mechanical actions and construction. The images are accompanied by sufficient text to explain the general principles of construction and operation, and mechanical forms shown. Mechanical Movements will convey to you, via illustrations and short attached descriptions, the most important principles and facts in constructive art.

This book was specifically designed for quick and easy use. We have republished Mechanical Movements in order to place a huge amount of illustrated practical mechanical knowledge in YOUR hands; all within one phenomenal book.

"RUTH'S" ROTARY ENGINE—

A revolving cylinder engine. Three cylinders, A, A, A, radiate from a shaft set eccentric to an outer circle or ring on which the piston connected sheaves revolve. The pistons take steam through the ports M, M, M, just past the shortest eccentric radius, and drives out the piston during a half revolution, when the exhaust is opened and the piston is pushed back by the eccentric ring.

"ALMOND" ENGINE—

Four single-acting cylinders set tangent to a shaft which is central to an outer shell. The pistons have jointed segmental plates at their outer end that press against the outer shell and cause the cylinders and shaft to revolve by the ec­centric direction of their pressure. Disc ports for steam and exhaust.

ROTATING CYLINDER ENGINE—

The cylinder rotates on trunnions with a through piston rod terminating with rollers running in an oval ring. Steam and exhaust ports in the trunnion. Pressure of the piston-rod rollers on the oval ring re­volves the cylinder and fly-wheel on its trunnion.

ROTARY MULTI-CYLINDER ENGINE—

Three or more cylinders are attached to and re­volve with the fly-wheel. The crank is stationary and eccentric to the fly-wheel. Each cylinder is single-acting. Valves are on a central disc at A.

ALTERNATE RECTILINEAR MOTION FROM A SWINGING LEVER WITH SECTOR AND RACK

The lever has a quick return motion, operated by a wrist pin on a face plate, and free from backlash by the weight and lanyare, attached to end of lever.

RECIPROCATING RECTILINEAR MOTION OF A DOUBLE RAC—

gives a continu­ous rotary motion to the central crank. Each stroke of the rack alternates upon one or the other of the sectors. A curved stop on the centre gear is caught on the pins in the rack, to throw it into mesh with the opposite sector.

RECIPROCATING RECTILINEAR MOTION OF A BAR CARRYING AN ENDLESS RACK—

A mangle device. The pinion shaft moves up and down the slot, guiding the pinion around the end of the rack.

MULTIPLE GEAR SPEED IN LINE OF SHAFT—

Pinion E is fast on small shaft. B and C are fast together and pivoted on the y sleeve which runs loose on an extension of the small shaft gear; D is fast on the large shaft, and gear A is fixed to the bearing. Speed may thus be increased or decreased on a continuous line of shafting by the relative number of teeth in the different bevel gears. When the multiple of the teeth in A and C is less than the multiple of the teeth in B and D, the gear D and the large shaft will revolve forward or in the same direction as the pinion E. When the multiple of A and C is greater than the multiple of the teeth in B and D, the gear D and large shaft will revolve backward or in the opposite direction from the pinion E.

EQUATED SUNDIAL—

The curved bulbs on the shadow stile are made to conform to the equation of solar time. The end of the upper bulb represents the sun's declination at the summer solstice, the lower end of the large bulb the winter solstice of the shadow on the gnomon. The following edge of the shadow is the correct time when the 'sun is fast, the middle of April to the middle of June, and from September 1 to December 24. The forward edge of the shadow is the correct time from the middle of June to September 1, and from December 24 to the middle of April.

MECHANICAL MOVEMENTS POWERS AND DEVICES 

 

 

Mechanical Movements is a great work of reference for inventors and experimenters, mechanical students, artisans and any workingman with an inquiring mind and the ambition of an engineer. For anyone with a real interest in mechanical thought and work, this book will fully explain mechanical movements, devices used in constructive and operative machinery and the Mechanical Arts. Mechanical Movements will be your valued mechanical dictionary, commencing with a rudimentary description of the early known mechanical powers and detailing the vari­ous motions, appliances and inventions used in the mechanical arts through to present times.
