Model of a Disengaging Gear for Paddle Wheels, Model of the disengagement of the crankshaft of a paddle wheel, on a floorboard. The pin of the crank falls into a hollow bush in the eye of the crank of the wheel shaft, which can be unscrewed and removed and thereby disengages the shaft. With each stroke, the pin of the crank moves freely through the slot of the wheel crank, which remains open at the location of the bush. 1:10 scale (derived)., Koninklijke Fabriek P. van Vlissingen & Dudok van Heel, c. 1840 and/or 1842, wood (plant material), brass (alloy), h cm × w 17 cm × d 17 cm
