. 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. red motive power, a is theaxis or shaft on which the wheels are all mounted ; each wheel consists of two parallel rims, h, b, eachof which is connected by radialarms, c, to a boss, d, keyed onthe axis, a; the working partsof each wheel are mounted be-t w e e n the rims and arms^J thereof, but the outer rim,boss, and radial arms are re-moved in the figure in orderthat the working may be fullyshown. It must be understoodthat the pivots or axis, /, j, n, t,hereinafter referred to, on whichcertain parts are mounted, aresupported by and extend between the two parallel rims, radial arms,and bosses of the wheel, b, c, d. e, e are curved arms working on axes orpivots, /, fixed in the rims; each arm carries weights, g, g, held in placeby adjusting screws g\ Each arm, e, terminates at its innermost endin a wheel, h, toothed on a portion of its periphery, through whichthe weight, v, forces the weights, g, outward at the right-hand side ofthe wheel, causing a preponderance of weight on that PERPETUAL MOTION. The differential hydrostaticA, B, C, D are four vessels connected to the wheels, E, by roundpins which project from the vessels on eachside, and enter into corresponding holes inthe wheels E. The wheels, E, are in-tended to revolve by the space under thevessel, B, being a vacuum, and thereforelighter than the same portion of air; a lit-tle before the vessel, B, reaches the high-est point of the wheels, it begins to close,and opens the opposite vessel, D, in thesame manner as the vessel, C, opens A, be-cause the pressure of the atmosphere on thevessel, C, is equal to the pressure on of common packing to make thevessels ai
