This invent on relates to. valve gears for gas engines, and is adapted to improve upon the construction shown in my prior Patent, No. 1,088,580, dated February 24%,1914.

The primary object of this invention is to provide a slide valve located in. one'end of the gas engine cylinder, and is so con-v structed as to form a eylinderwhich maybe operated to admit a :ehajrge or toeXha-ust the most effective results.

With these and other objects in view, this invention consists in the peculiar combination and arrangement of the variousspa'rts of a slide valve gear, as will be hereinafter described and. more particularly set forth in the appended claim. Referring to the drawings forming a portion of this application, wherein similar relerence numerals indicate similar parts when ever used the figure is, an axial section through a motor embodying my improved device. v
