In theengine iliustreted-in Fig'. the pipe 18 is dispensed with and the delivery valves 17 are arranged in vthe scerenging pump piston 4t iteeht, so that 'the air drewn into chamher 'l5 on. the downward Stroke olf piston llt is diechergcd into the receiver 950 through valves l? on the return stroke of the piston.

In the engine illuetreted in Fig.. L, the
