Description:

Claim:

In several respects the governor is like that shown and described in the specification and drawings of Letters Patent No. 144,098, dated October 28, 1873, with which the valve-eccentric has of necessity to be arranged in close proximity with the flywheel and governor.

One object of my present invention is to enable me to dispose of the eccentric at a greater distance from the fly or band wheel, or as circumstances may require, thereby saving the necessity of placing the two in close proximity.
