June, 1917 RAILWAY iMECHANICAL ENGINEER 357 LOCOLIGHT HEADLIGHT EQUIPMENT The Locolight Company, Indianapolis, Ind., has recentlybrought out a new model of the standard generator which thecompany has been manufacturing since 1914. The newmachine, which is rated to deliver 450 watts at 32 volts, em-bodies all the principal features used in the former type. The turbo-generator, complete with the base, weighs 109 length over all is ISj in., the height 15>2 in. and thewidth 15 in. The turbine wheel is 11 in. in diameter, weighs. Locolight Headlight Generator about 6 lb., and is designed to run at a speed of 3,200 governor acts directly on the wheel, the governor weightsin action forcing the wheel out of the path of the steam, thuscontrolling the speed. The shaft, wheel and governor canbe removed from the machine without destroying the adjust-ment of the governor. The shaft is carried on two sets ofannular liall-bearings which are lubricated by a chain oilingdevice. The chain passes over a spacer, between the ballbearings, which is smaller at the center than it is at either
