The Automobile Simplified

It la reading these articles, as they appear in the Palladium each Saturday, there Is anything not clear to you. ask Mr. Ouerilch about It.

In our previous talk on the transmission, we saw that the purposo of the transmission was to give a leverage to thenglna for hill climbing and for starting, and also give a means

increased speed, and learned that we had to have a number, of speed3 and leverages to take care of all the var

ious conditions of driving,, and the var

ious grades of hills. Wo will now see

for allowing the engine " to revolve

car speed is so slow that he engine,

card speed is so slow that the engine, which has a minimum speed, would

stall If it were not given the increased speed.

We' also saw how the transmit

sion gears gave this levcrago and

QlH Td If J s 1" Fig 6 1 'I

how the sets or trains of gears, which will give these variations In speed and leverage, are combined, and how the driver can choose the train of gears

which he requires

connected to the clutch and so to the engine white tho shaft A, to which the gear J is attached, is connocted to the roar wheels. The left-hand end of the shaft A can revolve inside ot the gear P, it not being attached thereto, the gear acting no-a bearing or support for this end of the shaft To review the action, tho gear P is mnde to revolve by the engine, and in doing so drives the gear B. As the gear B is fastened to the same shaft C, P thus also drives the gear E, which then- drives J. A? J Is connected to the gear wheels (through propeller shaft, etc.), tho rear wheels are thus driven. Let us assume that the dimensions and leverage of the gear as shown are correct for low speed and maximum

hill climbing. - We will thereforo have to add a set of gears for medium speeds and medium bills, which will have a leaser leverage, but which will permit the engine to ; revolve ' slower In comparison to tho speed of the car. You will note that the greater in diameter the gear J is in comparison

tc its shaft A, and also tho greater is is in comparison to 1, the greater will be the leverago of the engine' and the K eater its speed. To have a lesser rerage therefore wo make J smaller and E larger, or wo can put another but smalled gear than J on tho shaft

A, and another but larger gear than

E on the shaft C, and nave these new gears mesh. Let us therefore slide the gear J out of mesh with E, and add the two gears as above. We will then get what is shown In Fig. 2. As the shaft A cannot revolve at two speeds at the same time, some arrangement must be made to slide one gear out of mesh when the other is slid into mesh. To permit the gear to slide and yet drive the shaft, this shaft A is made either square or is splined; that is, has a number of square offsets as shown in Fig 3, the hole in the gear having keyways to fit on these splines. To the sliding gears a doubleflaneed or collared sleeve as shown in

Fie 4 is attached, and into each of

these sleeves a Fork as shown in Fig.

5 fits. If now a hand controlled lever

hA aminnil an in mnvn the rod H

of the Fork, we will have a way to

slide the gears back and forth on their

splined or square shaft.

If we were to assemble the trans

fission as developed so far, we would

get what is shown in Fig. 6. The

sliding shafts on whichh the forks are

fastened are placed side by side, but as If they were so drawn one would not show In the illustration, I show

one a little lower than the other,

To study the illustration Fig. 6, we find that if the hand lever is moved

so as to connect with the shaft H, and then further moved so as to move

this shaft H toward the left, the gear

J will be pulled into mesh with the

come out of mesh, or be in neutral If the lever be then moved to the other side so as to .take hold of the shaft H H, and then moved so as to push this shaft to the right the gears F and K will come into mesh and we will be in second or intermediate speed. ; ' - 80 far we have only two speeds, low and Intermediate. Of course the third speed could be obtained by having a third set of gears. Gears, how

ever, when constantly in use will wear

rainy last and as the car is driven In

third speed most of the time, It would be an advantage to have this third speed without drivinsr throush a train

of gears. You will see later, that because the axle of the rear wheels Is at right angles to the crank-shaft of the engine, that there must be a gear at the rear axle to transmit the power at this angle ' If the engine must have a leverage for level driving .(and it must have) then, why not get this leverage at the gears on the rear axle, and have a direct drive in the transmis

sion. This will do away with the drive 1 through gears.

How can we obtain this direct drive?

The gear F is considerably , larger in diameter than the gear P, so an in

ternal gear can be cut in it and this

gear can then be slipped over the gear

P which is made : longer so as to permit this. Thus when the gear F Is slipped over the gear P these two gears will be so connected that they

will revolve as though they were one.

You will observe that they do not roll on one another as do the other gears, and so there will be no wear of them.

You will also note that the drive of

the shaft A by the gear is direct none of the gears B, K or E being brought

into the drive.

The gears B, K and E always re

volve, even or in . third, but as under these circumstances there is no load on them, the wear of these gears will

be practically nil.

To shift into high gear, the shifter

lever Is simply moved so as to connect

with the shaft H H and then moved so

as to push the gear F to the left You will note that the movement of the

lever to pull the gear F out of mesh with the gear K, or out of second. Is in the same direction as that required

to shift to high, and so a straight pull

or push on the Ehlfter handlever (ac

cording to how it is connected to the

phaft), is all that is necessary to shift from second to third, or from inter

mediate to high speed.

Fine Metals Have Given Maxwell its Rank

THE very substance of which a car is made denotes its quality; and the use of fine and strong metals in the Maxwell has won it many, many friends. It was necessary to naake the Maxwell chassis of the very best materials. For its great mission was to transport in an extremely economical way as great a passenger load over the same road and at the same speed as the larger and heavier cars. Thus it was obvious that the Maxwell had to be light. And to make it light the quality metals were used. "Metallurgists, the men who have made . the study of metals a science, say that it compares favorably pound for pound with the highest priced cars the world has produced. But you need not be a metallurgist to discover this "inner goodness" in a Maxwell. Three months will tell; six months will tell you more. Otherwise Maxwell in five short years would never have grown from a production of 5,000 a vear to 100,000 a year. t 300,000 Maxwells on the highways of the world ,' today answer most any "question you can ask about j this great car.
