A beam,C, pivoted on a center at D, and connected by a pitman, J, to a crank and fly wheel, contains a longstraight tube at the top andtwo double inclined tubesbelow. A ball rolls along theupper tube by gravity in syn-chronism with the revolvingwheel and axle, so that its mo-mentum just carries it to thedrop valve and incline at F asthe crank reaches the upperpoint of its revolution. Thesteeper incline of the lowerdouble bend tube returns theball to the farther end of the tube in time to start in the straight tubefor its next run. Patented in 1870.
