. Collection of United States patents granted to Thomas A.

By means of the alternate closing and breaking ofthe circuit according to the speed, a nearly uniformvelocity of the motor is insured; hence two or moreinstruments can be propelled at almost the samespeed, even at distant stations, the regulation of thespeed being by the screw 3. I claim as my invention:— A yielding fly rotating against the atmospheric re-sistance, and so arranged as to break or close an elec-trical circuit, in combination with a revolving electro-magnetic motor, substantially as and for the purposesset forth.
