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.
To show the forces which can be exerted during thermal expansion or contraction.
Comprising a heavy cast iron frame 340x120x100mm with slotted end pillars to carry a stout iron bar.
The bar is threaded at one end for a large tensioning nut and has holes at the other end to accommodate the cast iron breaking bars.
Supplied complete with ten breaking bars.
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.
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.
For use with a large motor/generator and a lamp unit to demonstrate the conversion of electrical energy to kinetic energy and then back again.
Comprising an iron flywheel, mounted in cast brackets with bearings.
The shaft has an aluminium 'V' pulley for driving with the spring belt supplied.
To show conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Turbine with transparent cover, inlet and outlet tubes, directly connected to a dynamo. Fitted on base.
