"The first part of my invention consists in the revolving shaft being placed near the bottom of chamber, which is of an elliptical form, so that the sliding piston can have all the leverage possible yet touch equally all around the chamber during each revolution of shaft. The second part of my invention consists in placing two of those chambers side by side on the same shaft, with the sliding piston through the shaft in one chamber at right angles through the same shaft, with the sliding piston in the other chamber, so that when the steam in one chamber is just beginning to act on the sliding piston it will have full power on the sliding piston in the other chamber. The third part of my invention consists in the construction of a sliding valve communicating with a lever, by means of which lever the sliding valve is moved either way, so as to change the direction of the steam and run the engine either backward or forward." |

The manufacturer listing is because of a flyer showing the "Hege Eureka" portable circular sawmill. Since Hege is such an uncommon surname, and both the company and this inventor are from the same city, we assume that there is a connection. |
