Mechanical appliances, mechanical movements and novelties of construction; a complete work and a continuation, as a second volume, of the author's book entitled "Mechanical movements, powers and devices" ... including an explanatory chapter on the leading conceptions of perpetual motion existing during the past three centuries. fromwhich the air enters the axle, E, by the tube, G, and passing throughthe hole in it at T, enters the lower bladder, C, by the tube D; this blad-der being thus rendered lighter than the space it occupies, ascends,bringing the bladder behind it over the hole in the axle, T, in like man-ner, and which is thereby expected to gain an ascending power, pro-ducing a similar effect on the one behind it. When one cf the bladdersarrives at the knob, S, the lever cf the valve, Q, strikes against it andopens the valve; when the bladder arrives at C and begins to descend,its pressure on the w^ater drives out the air; the knob, R, then closes thevalve, Q, and prevents the entrance of any water into the bladder; bythis contrivance, three of the bladders were expected to be alternatelyfull and empty, according as they passed over the hole T or the knob reason assigned for the failure of this machine was the friction,the old invincible enemy of perpetual-motion seekers.
