Cylinders

The middle size cylinder is build-up through a cylinder #216 with on the two outsides two flange wheels #20b. The rod is a perforated strip #1b that is connected on the eccentric #130 to the crankshaft. On the other side of the perforated strip is mounted a handrail support #136 that is connected on an axle rod #16 that goes into the cylinder.
The smallest cylinder is connected on the same manner only is this cylinder not connected on the crankshaft but on the driving shaft with eccentric #130a. The other side of the strip is connected a strip coupling #63b and there on is connected an axle rod #17. The cylinder is a sleeve piece #163 where on two flange-wheels #20 are mounted. With axle rods and couplings is made a rack for the leading of the strips of the middle and smallest cylinder. Onto the flat plate #52a are built two rod-sockets #179 on which the whole rack is built. For the leading of the cylinder rods are used four slide pieces #50.
