. 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. 92 STEAM POWER 199. FLEXIBLE CRANK formarine shafting. The crank pin isfixed in one side and swiveled in theother side of a double crank, asshown, giving flexibihty to a Hne ofshafting in marine engines. 200. FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS for marine shafting. A ball bear-ing between the sectional ends of a line of shafting. In order to reducefriction to a minimum, a parallel piece made ofsuitable material is placed between the drivingahead faces of the jaws, a, on the driving shaft,and the driven ahead faces of the jaws, b^ on thedriven shaft. These pieces are lipped under thejaws at the bottom or inner end, to prevent themflying out while in motion. For the purpose oftaking up the backlash and compensating for anywear that might occur on the driving ahead facesof the jaws, adjustable pieces made in wedge formare fitted between the driving astern faces of thejaws, a, or. the driving shaft, and the driven asternfaces of the jaws, h, on the driven shaft.
