As the speed increases the centrifugal force causes theballs to expand, and through a proper arrangement of links and sliding sleeve, the balls_ raisethe forked lever, which in turn, by means of the link and quadrant, closes the throttle-valve in thesteam-pipe, thus instantly checking the speed of the engine.
