The moiion, it will be observed, is de-rived entirely from the reciprocatingmovement of the pistons. Each piston. FIG. I. VIEW OF VALVE GEAR APPLIED TO A LOCOMOTIVE WITH VALVEEXPOSED many important improvements in rail-road appliances may become better 1, is a view of the valve gear asapplied to a locomotive. The valve cham-ber and valve are partly exposed. It will causes the valve movement equal to itslap and lead on its own side, and travelof the valve in the opposite side. Thisdiversity of movement is caused by the opposite to the link that imparts the mo-tion. As the front end of the radius baracts on the lap and lead lever betweenits two extreme connections, unusuallylong travel is imparted to the valve with-out excessive angularity to the swing ofthe link. This feature alone accounts not onlyfor a more rapid opening of the valve atthe desired moment when the piston isabout to reverse its movement, but alsogives a much wider opening, and, rela-tively, a more rapid closing of the valve,than is possible in the case of valve gear-ing confined to a shorter valve also produce
