civil engineer, a-suhject of the King of Prussia,.(erman Emperor, residing at No. -14 Bisv5 marckstrasse, Charlottenburg, in the Kingdourof Prussia, 'German Empire, have in? vented .a new and Improved Fly-W'heel for Quick-'Running Internal-Combustion Eninventionl is illustrated in theaccompanyiug' Figure l is a veitcal'sectional view taken on the line 1 1 of Fig. 2, and- Fig. 2 a vertical sectional view taken on'the line 1I II-of Fig. 1, lthe engine being shown in side elevation.

The fly-wheel consists in the example shown of a disk manufactured 'of non-magnetic materialf-such, for instance, as brass on bronze or thelike-the tire of the wheel being formed by a'permanent-maguet c, the main part o'f'which is circularly bent, so as to correspondto the circular shape of the disk L, whereas the ends r! l? are bent inward to'form the concentric poles e c, one pole being located diametricallyopposite the other. The llength of the legs of the magnet measured from the neutral line i ment of the pole-.pieces c c is obviously very great, which is highly favorable for `theintensityfand long effectiveness of the and thus of the whole inductor.' The magnet is shown in Vthe drawings as formed of three sections of corresponding shape, each/section vbeing animlependent magnet. I t is obvious, `however, that it may he .formed o f only one 'section or magnet.

The disk /-is rigidly secured tothe drive- 'shaft hy angly suitahhl means, a fkey being magnet may gincs, of which the followingY is a-slur'cifica-- reduce the Yv veight ,of the. said magnet a part of the,

serial' No. 162.274. No mod u.)

shown in thedrawingafor this purpose. The be secured tothe disk in any suitablemanner, preferably clmnping-bolts Il, as shown in thc'drawings. h

The armature a of the ind uctor is surround- 5 5 ed by ahobhind.' This armature iii'atatiirrA arily supported' concentric with the driveshaftg and between the polesfof the magnet by meansof-apost'zl, theshaft passing loosely through thc center of the armature. The elec- 60 tric current is'gencrated, as is well knowmby constantly changing the ,excitation of the ar- 'mature a by means of poles f/Seo the magnet.

The poles of the igniter device /L are in circuit wi'th'the 'bobbin 1L by means of the wircs'g ef. The dri ving-shaf t is con nectcd bythe pitman lrtc' the pistonjand is driven throughthc -pitman k by the vpiston'jin the usual manner.

It is obvious that the disk '/1 may be replaced by a wheel proper vhavingfthev usual spokes, the magnet alsorforming in this instance-the tire of the wheel, and thus converting the `same into a yiwheel. 'Y
