Model of an Oscillating Steam Engine with Adjustable Steam sketch model on base board. The model, which is driven with a steam, displays the following components: section of an oscillating cylinder with piston, which drives a crankshaft; scissor movement of Stephenson on the crankshaft, driving the tripod steam slide; Steam slide controller. The latter consists of a screw-without-end with crank, with which a gear quadrant can be opposed, which controls the transmission of the scissor movement on the steam slide with a rod. With this controller the machine can be set forward and re
