ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to new and useful improvements in the pivotal movement of the intra-articulate connecting rod used in reciprocating heat engines and positive displacement pumps and compressors. The device described is a small spring which is used to hold the articulating components in the toggled or untoggled configuration during periods when the system is free of dynamic operating loads or static friction loads when the system is not in operation. The purpose of the spring during engine operation is to guide the pivotal movement of the intra-articulating connecting rod and thus provide a smoother and more positive action particularly at low speed.
