. Marine Engineer . erefore to meet in a complete andsimple apparatus, all the possible conditions hi. 96 THE MARINE ENGINEER AND NAyAL ARCHITECT. October i, 1907. obtain when an increase of speed results from anycause whatever, a new form of governor arrange-ment has been devised, which consists essentially of amomentum governor operated by the engine, ananticipator operated by the inclination of the ship,an automatic bye-pass adapted to cut out the antici-pator when the momentum governor is operative, anda power device for operating the throttle valve fromany source of fluid pressure. By reference to the adjoining diagrams the generalarrangement of the device is shown, as also the con-structive details of the essential parts. Figure 1 is a general end elevation of a marineengine with the combined governor applied thereto. Figure 2 is a part sectional elevation of the anticipator. Figure 3 is a detail view of the momentum governorand its gear. Figure 4 is a sectional view of the automaticDye-pass Fig 4 Upon the crosshead a, oi othei convenient recipro-cating part of the engine, is a momentum governoi b,consisting of a bai i which is pivoted a :econd rodattached to a weight, and this weight is pivotallyconnected by a rod with a sliding sleevi carried bythe crosshead bar, while a spring attached to thesleeve enables the effei I ol the weighl on the leeve tobe modi 11. d according to circumstances by varying itstension. Upon the framing ol the engine .1 rod ispivoted of ? ui h a lei is to allow the sli 1 ve to u 1 «ith the rod foi the whole length ol i troke olnor is operated on espeed being attained. At the lower end of th< rod ap 1 arranged on one side, and on the other side an adjustable re-acting spring is provided, wherebythe force against which the sleeve acts can beregulated. The adjustable re-acting spring consists of a fixedsupport into which is screwed a stem having a handwheel, and through the centre of the stem a rod ispassed which is fixedly s
