We nowsee that the engineer can alter the posi-tion of the supporting point H fromwhich hangs the radius arm G, and sovary the curve made by the point motion of C, as previously de-scribed, is either cir-cular or elliptical, ac-cording to the designof the bell crankE E, and the motionof G is radial, the in-clination of the curveit swings on beingalterable by the engi-neer as he shifts thesupporting point now have the ec-centric arm C F with
