AIR BRAKES.
How They Are Made and How They

nystery. for which nm explanation Is
demanded from time 10 time.
The modern air brake consists OF
twelve parts. among which are the air
pump, which congresses the air; a
main reservoir, I'm which the air Is
stored, the engineers brake valve, reg
ulatlng the ilow OF air; the train pipe,
which connects the brake valve with
the triple valves under each ear; the
quick action triple valve, controlling
the low ofar IL and from the auXll-
larry reservoir, which is supplied from
inder piston rod. which Is forced out.

The theory of the air brake is the
equalization OF prcSsurcs. When the
brakes are not In action the pressure
on the train pipe is made such ms ~

desires 10 make an application OF
brakes re turns his brake valve 50 that
there Is n moderate reduction of the
pressure in the train pipe, This causes
the greater pressure in the auxiliary
reservoir To force air into the brake
cylinder. forcing the piston out and

When IL is desired to release the
brakes the engineer turns his valve In
the opposite direction, permitting the
air To now from the main reservoir.
