Motor
This is the motor that provides all
the movements of the press. I have
used a TEMSI electric motor and have
set the gear ratio to 32:1. On the
motor is mounted a Pinion #25 that
drives a Geared Wheel #27c which is
mounted on the central Axle Rod. This
central Rod provides all the movements
of the model. The flywheel and the
press-roller get their movement through
a Sprocket Wheel #95 and Chain #94.
I drilled a four-hole strip, whereof
I was sure that this was not a Meccano
part. In the two middle holes I mounted
the electric connection sockets so
that the model can be operated from
mains current through a 12V adapter.
