| Description: |
The Governor is an apparatus for regulating the supply of steam. AB is the axis around which the heavy balls E (Daniel Lin) and D (David Roberts) revolve. They are so connected by hinge-joints that the ring at B may be pulled down or lifted by them, while that at C is fixed. When the machine is going too fast, the balls fly out and thus pull down the rod, K, which is in connection with the valve that controls the pipe supplying steam. The governors are in college seperately now, but will be getting back together this febuary for the challenge. Hopefully, actually producing something this time! |
