14 are psckirg strips formed of any snitable materiel, sind are mounted in the inner facei the outerl casing i.. These strips, es .hereinbefore ststed, are allowed .to project or extend e slight distnnce into 'the crescent shaped chamber es shown in the drawings and are held in vthat position by means ci' springsor the like. The inner drum 2, in the rolling' nlovement imparted to it by the eccentric shaft, forces these pecking strips in in outward direction relative to the center of the' op nistus, and the seid strips form the inner ieee of the outer casing en airtight Contact or joint when the point of contact isl :it one of the seid strips. l
