. Bulletin - United States National Museum. Science. <££. 3) 168 The reciprocating electromagnetic engine of Charles G. Page (1812-1868) was developed in the mid-1840's. See Dictionary of American Biography. ^f Figure 55.—Saxton's locomotive differential pulley. An endless rope (as shown in top figure) was wrapped around each of two con- centric pulleys integral with the shaft o (lower figure). The rim of the carriage wheel (not shown) provided a pivot point at a. Force applied on rope produced turning forces in opposing directions at b and c, causing the shaft to move to the right about 10 times as far as horizontal ropes moved. This effect can be demonstrated by pulling thread from the lower side of a spool that rests upon a flat surface. After British patent 6351, December 20, 1832. was thrown into the highly heated water in these massive tubes and a like quantity was discharged into tubes of still higher temperature in which it flashed into steam from which it passed into his great cannon or what he called his safety chamber in which he claimed to have a steam pressure of over 1000 lbs. to the square inch and from which his steam gun got its supply. I have no recollection by what device, nor the arrangement that let the bullets from the hopper into the barrel of his gun, nor how they were discharged so closely one after another as to appear like a stream of lead in their contact with the target. 132.
