Description: |
| Abstract:
The object of my invention is to produce a centrifugal governor, conveniently but not necessarily of the throttle valve type, wherein the governing speed may be readily changed by shifting the centrifugal elements, during motion if desired, the construction being also such that the working position of the throttle valve, or other part controlled by the governor, will remain undisturbed by adjustment of the centrifugal elements.
Claim:
The combination, in a speed controlled governor, of a pair of rotatable members axially movable toward and from each other, a yielding connection between said members urging the same in one direction, a toggle connecting said members with one arm of the toggle extending beyond the knuckle, a governor ball mounted upon said arm of the toggle and movable along the same across the knuckle, and means for shifting said governor ball along said arm during its revolution. |
