20 employing more than one insulated jet is
to secure higher velocity approach and
separation, and respect the number of
jets thus employed the device may ob
viously modifiedas desired without departure
25 from the invention.
It may stated that the jets can pro-
50 duced any other known ways and that they
may utilized any desired manner pro
duce rotation the disk.
As the tubes ducts not take part in
the rotation the fluid, being held the
start the weighted body they také up
the mercury soon carried the
io points where the ducts open and discharge it
upon the vanes the disk this means
the disk set rapid rotation, establishing

streams jets fluid are simultaneously in
contact with the vanes, but breaking the con
tact whenever the jets discharge through the
spaces between the vanes.
Having now described invention, what
I claim is—

ductor mounted within the same and through
which the circuit intermittently estab
lished, and means for directing jet stream

tion independently the receptacle, set
forth. This accomplished rotat-
40 ing the receptacle with constant speed; but
when this impracticable and the uniformity
of motion the disk very desirable resort
to special means secure this result, by
providing overflowing-reservoirs in-
45 dicated dotted lines, from which the fluid
issues upon the vanes with constant velocity,
though the speed the receptacle may vary
between wide limits. The movement the parts, there
fore, and the operation the device a
whole are very steady and uniform, and ma
terial practical advantage thereby secured.
