new TYPE MOTOR
IS Being STUDIED
1t Works on The Lever System
for Power

Chicago. Aug. 1-Automotive en-
gineers have become Interested in a
new type of engine that is said to
produce double the power transmit
ted to it by the pressure of the ex-
ploding gas on the piston.
1t is called Powell leverage en-
CINE because it adopts the principle
of the lever between the piston and
the crankshaft.
This engine, according to its max
ers here. is so designed. through use
Of the leverage principle. that the
piston stroke Is double that of the
crankshafu stroke. In ordinary mo-
tors the piston stroke, being directly
connected to the crankshaft is the
same as the stroke on the shaft.
The lever is about halfway be-
tween the piston and the crankshaft.
Its fulcrum at one end is bolted to
the side of the cylinder, the other
end is connected to the bottom of
the piston rod, while at its center is
the upper end of the connecting rod.
Doubles Stroke OF Piston
As a result Of this arrangement,
the piston can take double the
stroke, and therefore double the
speed, 1t ordinarily would take for
the same power transmitted to the
crankshaft in the existing motors.
The designers of this motor claim
several advantages to the long
stroke. double speed motors, among
them being flexibility. greater tur-
bulence due to the need of smaller
combustion chamber. greater econo-
my in use of fuel. high thermal eff
ficiency. high compression and
greater durability
while high piston speed in
creases the economy and flexibility
of any engine" say the Powell mo-
tor designer "this feature in a con-
ventional engine shortens its period
Of usefulness through strain which
cannot be avoided because the rest
of the engine must travel at a speed
corresponding to that Of the piston.
In a Powell leverage engine, the eff

of fuel"
The lever. 1t is added, il sim
liar to a reduction gear in that 1t

slow r. p. m. of the crankshaft.
with the resultant difficulties and
weight Of reduction gear.
Claim superior Features
The designers stress especially
the long stroke, small bore and
smaller combustion chamber. all of
which they say combine to produce
high compression. greater power. a
faster and more powerful engine
and all at less fuel cost.
Only the lever equipment is diff
ferent from the conventional motor
in design. This has been made ac-
cessibIe by providing plate at the
side of the motor. the removal Of
which opens UP the insides for in
spection or repair.
The engine designed for passenger
car service is made in SIX or straight
eight models. with 2 Inch bore, s.
inch piston stroke and 3-inch crank
shaft stroke.
There is u six-cylinder bus engine,
with 81 Inch bore, 6-inch stroke
and 3-inch, crankshaft stroke. that
is said to develop IS horsepower at
I 900 revolutions a minute. 1t weighs
with all accessories. only 900
pounds.
In addition to these, a truck
design has four cylinders. of 3-inch
bore, s-inch piston stroke and
4inch crankshaft stroke.
