LEVER-CAM MECHANISM OF A CENTRIFUGAL GOVERNOR

Click to enlargeClick to enlarge Description

Governor shaft 5 rotates about fixed axis y-y. Links 6 with weights a turn about axes A and B. Cross-piece AB, levers 6 and 7, weights a and sleeve 1 rotate together with shaft 5. Intermediate links 7 move sleeve 1 along axis y-y. Sleeve 1 has friction disk b which engages bevel friction wheel 2. Wheel 2 rotates freely about axis z of lever 3 which turns about fixed axis C. Lever 3 is connected by turning pair D to tie-rod 4 which is connected to the throttle valve. When the speed of shaft 5 increases, weights a are forced outward, shifting sleeve 1 upward. Through bevel wheel 2, this turns lever 3 counterclockwise and tie-rod 4 changes the position of the throttle valve.
