Difference Regulator with Bevel Gear according to Siemens (1845)
The interactive animation shows a WebGL model of a regulator for steam engines, developed and applied for a patent by the Siemens brothers, which is absolutely different from preliminary centrifugal regulators.
This regulator is based on the difference of the velocity of a circular pendulum and of the velocity of the steam engine, which has to be controlled.
The control mechanism was implemented in remarkably different ways.
Here is shown the solution by use of three interlocking bevel gears.

Difference Regulator with Planetary Drive according to Siemens (1845)
The interactive animation shows a WebGL model of a regulator for steam engines, developed and applied for a patent by the Siemens brothers, which is absolutely different from preliminary centrifugal regulators.
This regulator is based on the difference of the velocity of a circular pendulum and of the velocity of the steam engine, which has to be controlled.
The control mechanism was implemented in remarkably different ways.
Here is shown the solution by use of three interlocking gears as planetary drive.

Difference Regulator with Friction Wheels and Helical Track according to Siemens (1845)
The interactive animation shows a WebGL model of a regulator for steam engines, developed and applied for a patent by the Siemens brothers, which is absolutely different from preliminary centrifugal regulators.
This regulator is based on the difference of the velocity of a circular pendulum and of the velocity of the steam engine, which has to be controlled.
The control mechanism was implemented in remarkably different ways.
Here is shown the solution through a combination of screw and nut, where the screw is realized by means of two friction wheels and the nut by means of a double helically wound track.

Difference Regulator with Worm Gear according to Siemens (1845)
The interactive animation shows a WebGL model of a regulator for steam engines, developed and applied for a patent by the Siemens brothers, which is absolutely different from preliminary centrifugal regulators.
This regulator is based on the difference of the velocity of a circular pendulum and of the velocity of the steam engine, which has to be controlled.
The control mechanism was implemented in remarkably different ways.
Here is shown the solution through a combination of screw and nut, where the screw is realized by means of a worm and the nut by means of a worm gear.
