" "Boivin 'Apvplicaton filed September 10, 19.24, Serial NeffBGQS/I, and in Sweden March S1, 18234.

eerned with `siinpliiicatio'n to reduce the 'ing fior einen the i devine' nurnloer of partsrequired and the ainount o `a ceurate machining nece-sary to make Vsatisfa.etory device, and to that end einploys oertainnovelprinciples sueh as the use of singlefpulnping` elenent to effect all the oil transference. @ther features of importance include the localization of the moving' parts and theuse .offa one-piece cainplate.

"Further objects and advantagesof the interehangeahility of Vparte than obtained heretofore will become apparent as the tdescriptionproceeds. if
