automatic feed and drain pipes to
maintain the water at the proper level
Inside this reservoir one or more YER

or noise resulting while the machinery
is in motion. The driving wheel is
provided with magnetic coils arranged
around the periphery, with means for
energizing a portion of the coils at a
time
This is accomplished by passing the
electric current from a generator
through the upper spring contact arm
into the two or three coils mediate-
1y below, and allowing it to pass out
through the lower arm. In this way
a strong pull is exerted on the project
ing spokes of the larger wheel on the
side toward the energized coils, with

magnets and att -tcted spOkes to con-
