A Mr.. Samuel Smith, from Little
Rock, Ark, has gotten up an improve
ment in the reciprocating steam engine,
the object Of which is, If necessary, to
convert the slide-valve of an engine into
the working piston, thereby permitting
the repair or replacing of the main
cylinder piston or connections without
arresting the action of the machine.
The invention consists in novel con-
nection Of the parts. The improvement
claimed in the invention is the convert
ing piston valve into working piston,
with the addition Of small side-valve.
Allowing the use of an extra cylinder
the construction of steam passages is so
arranged that each engine works indie
pendent or collectively. BY this means
it will be seen that the main cylinder
can be thrown out of action, using the
slide-valve cylinders as means of keep
ing the machinery in motion.
