For showing potential energy in a wound-up spring and its conversion to electrical energy by driving a dynamo and lighting a lamp.
May also be used to wind up a weight on a cord showing the change from potential energy to kinetic and back to potential in the raised weight.
The steel shaft carries a clock spring with a free wheel device and winding ratchet, also an aluminium 'V' pulley 56 mm.
diameter.
One end of the shaft overhangs the base for use as line shaft when winding up a weight.
Dimensions 220 x 100 x 100 mm.
high Supplied complete with driving belt.
The cut section is constructed model is of light and strong metal showing air intake, axial flow, double stage compressor, fuel supply, combustion chamber, turbine rotor, jet thrust, exhaust etc.
Complete on base.
A series of models to demonstrate different gearing systems.
With transparent slideplates, the gears may easily be seen and where necessary there is an index on the primary and secondary shafts to show the change in the direction of rotation and the relative speed of rotation.
A simple three-speed and reverse-gear system using spur gears.
Reverse gear is obtained by interposing a small lay-shaft mounted pinion between the two main shafts.
Gear selection is by means of a short ball-ended lever.
Operation of a commercial steam engine is well illustrated with this working model.
The extra large size unit is provided with a horizontal boiler with a whistle, safety valve, steam gauge, on metal base.
Operates on 220V A.C. 50 Hz.
A model of two-stroke diesel engine made in aluminium alloy and gun metal.
Ignition is shown by means of a miniature bulb. Fuel supply is also sectioned.
With hand crank, provided for manual operation.
Mounted on base.
A model of the simplest form of D.C. electric motor, having 2-pole armature wound with enamelled copper wire and a permanent magnetic field provided by a removable bar magnet.
A disc-type commutator is incorporated and external connection to the phosphor-bronze bushes is by means of a pair of 4 mm. sockets.
The motor will operates on 6-8 Volts D.C.
