LJACOB WOOLF, of Burr Oak, in the conntyof S't-.Josephjand State'of Michigan, have invented'a new and nsefullmprovement in Mechanical More ments, of which the following is a specification.

Nature-and Objects of `the lrrucnticm.

My invention relates, primarily, to the ymachinery described in my two patents 'fof .October the `18th and November the 29th, 1870.

My present improvement 'consists in -a peculiar `ar rangement for connecting and combining;` two 'of' the -machines described in my aforesaid patents, so that they may bc adapted to'act in unison bnt in opposite directions.

Description of the AccompanyingDrawing. Figure 1 is a sectional-elevation ot' my combined apparatus, taken in the plane indicated by thellne :c :c in iig. 2.

- Figure 2 is a side elevation of' the Sallie.

'Geiwral Description.

A A are two standards, which may be secured to a common bed,.B', and each support a stationary longitudinal shaft, G C', or a `single shaft may extend from one standard to the other, as illustrated by'dotted lines in fig.Y 2.

I shall proceed to describe the machineas made with two separate shafts, Athe only diierence being that, with a continuons shaft, the levers hereinafter described must be made short enough for their ends `to pass the saidshaft, as will be understood when their operation is explained.

The sleeves D D', wheels E E', cranks G G', eccentric annular weights H H', and levers I l rnay he constructed and arranged in each series as described in my patent of November 29, 187 0; but the weights H H of the respective series are set cccentrically to the shaft, in opposite directions, as clearly shown in Iig. 1, and the ends ofthe respective levers I and l are made with pins i and hooks t', or some equivalent means of adapting them-to interlock, as represented.

J J represent pulleys, to either or both of which driving-belts or brakesmay be applied.

l Operation..

The dotted lincs` in Iig. landthe arrows 'adjacent thereto represent the nearly circular path described by the en d of each lever in the respective series when inopcra'tion. l

As the ends come together at a, the'pins z' pass into the hooks i', causing the levers to interlock, and they are thence carried downward in a straight vertical line to the point b, where they separate, and each follows its ow'n'orbit.

The effect upon the eccentric annular weights is as described in my patents hereinbefore referred to.

The rotation of each is indicated by the arrow placed thereon in'fig. 1.

The wheels E E rotate in the direction indicated by the' arrow 'shown in fnll lines in fig. 1,'and the wheels E E' in the opposite direction, as indicated by the dotted arrow.

Claim.

I claim as my invention- The combination ofthe two movements, running in opposite directions, with their levers interlocking automatically, in manner substantially as described.
