Abstract

264,887. Stumpf, J. Jan. 25, 1926, [Convention date]. Engines with parallel cylinders with axes perpendicular to main shaft. -An engine of the Woolf type has a single distributing-valve for both the high and low pressure cylinders. In the engine, Fig. 1, the inlet to and exhaust from the high pressure cylinder a and inlet to the low-pressure cylinder b are controlled by heads e on a common valve stem p. The low-pressure cylinder is of the uniflour type, the piston controlling central exhaust ports. Balance pistons are arranged at the ends of the valve. The high and lowpressure pistons are made the same length. One balance piston may be omitted, and the outer end of the other put to steam through a passage o in the valve-rod p, Fig. 2, or otherwise. Two units, each consisting of a high and low-pressure cylinder a, b and a valve-chest d in the angle between the cylinders cast in one, may constitute a single engine. The valves may be operated by a common shaft q. Either unit may be cut out. Specifications 264,888 and 264,889 are referred to. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) comprises also a contraflow engine. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
