Description:

Claim:

My invention has reference to a particular construction of gas - engine chest whereby two explosive charges may be drawn from a common supply and completely separated from each other, such charges being adapted to be exploded at different times, the explosion of the second charge being regulated by the position of the piston within the cylinder, thus producing a plurality of working explosions one after the other as the piston travels outward on its working stroke.
