The nozzle itself is square, and the adjustment is Icaused by two hinged ears which open as the reverse lever is moved from center towards corner and close [as the lever is hooked back towards the center notch,so that the more steam that is being used the larger :will be the nozzle area, and vice versa. The De Lancey Exhaust Nozzle. This is another formof variable exhaust nozzle, as may be seen by the illus-trations. It is the invention of Mr. John J. De Lancey,of Binghamton, N. Y., who descri
