Section showing the ball and slot. 923. PERPETUAL MOTION. The pick-up-ball type. Betweenthe upright frame, A, A, run the wheel, C, geared to the pinion, D, and on the same shaft the two double pin-ions, D, D, over which double pinions runa double chain, to which chain are fixedthe buckets, F, F. The chain is madewith joints on each side and bars runningacross, equal in number to the cogs of thewheel C. Upon the same axle with thewheel, C, on the farther side of the innerstile. A, runs the wheel, G, whose diameteris double that of the wheel C. The wheel,G, is divided near the periphery into recep-tacles in number equal to the buckets on thechain, which receptacles are supphed withmetal balls, I, I, from the buckets, F, F, by means of the gutter, K, whichballs by their weight forcing round the wheel, G, and thereby hfting upthe buckets, F, F, on one side as they go down on the other side, discharge. PERPETUAL MOTION. 369 themselves again at the bucket, L, where they are taken up by the buck-ets, F, F, and discharged again at the gutter, K, and are so repeatedin a constant succession as often as any receptacle is vacant in the wheel,G, at the gutter, K, for their reception, and by that means the perpetualrevolution is obtained, the upper ball being at the same time dischargedfrom one bucket when the lower ball is taken up by another. 924.
