This portion of the machinery is drivendirect from the engine shaft 23. Thisshaft in addition to the worm driving thetender mechanism also carries a worm 24that meshes with and drives the wheel 25.The latter is rigidly attached to a camdisk 26 in which the cams are located forthe operation of the shovels. This diskpIso carries the spur gear 27, that mesheswith a pinion 28 of one-half its owndiameter, so that the revolutions perminute of the latter are twice those ofthe gear. The pinion is keyed to the shaft29 to which the crank arm 30 with itscounter balance is keyed. This crank.
