Description
A system of crossed levers, termed "Lazy Tongs". A short alternating rectilinear motion of rod at the right will give a similar but much greater motion to rod at the left. It is frequently used in children's toys. It has been applied in France to a machine for raising sunken vessels ; also applied to ships' pumps, three-quarters of a century ago. |
