PERPETUAL MOTION. Anothersolution of the water-wheel problem, to be ob-tained by multiplying the number of wheels,which makes the thing sure to work. Thesiphon, P, discharges water upon the upperwheel, and by the aprons, V and W, succes-sively to the second and third wheel; all ofthe wheels are connected to a walking beamby crank and pitman, thus operating a pumpfor the water supply. Patented in 1831. PERPETUAL MOTION. 375 /r=^ 937. PERPETUAL MOTION. The gear problem. The frames,B, and the wheels, G, are secured upon the hollow shafts, so that they can not move independent ofeach other. Shafts are placedwithin the hollow shafts, H,upon which the communicat-ing wheels, D, and the centerwheels are secured, so thatthey can move independent ofthe frames, B, and wheels, the frames, B, makeone revolution, the wheels, D,and the center wheels make two revolutions. This is caused by theaction of the weighted levers E. Their weight, or inertia, prevents themfrom passing around the
