ECONOMY OF ENERGY Yvalrhcvt “Ill \‘nw Iinn on Ball Bt-nrlng‘ Almost everything that runs at all nowadays runs on ball-bearings. The latest piece of mechanism to use this form of friction-saving is a watch exâ€" hibited at the Paris Exposition by a French firm. It is a great succcss, and bids fair to supersede watcth made our the old plan, at least when very fine and durable Work is dc- hired. 'l‘lm bicycle has shown us that axles ulltI pivots that roll on thch bearings are better than llliltfi'e that simply rub. It was only natural that watch- makca's should sock to profit by those sumo advantages in their in- dustry, where, more than in any other business, regularity is absolutely noâ€" W~Snl‘y, and whore thuo umtivo force, avlmthur due to a weight or to a spring, is always relativer focblc. Thus, several years ago, Ll. t‘hatcau made tower-clocks, erh ballâ€"hearings, which rill-Wed a considerable economy of weight. .VVith the watch. the problem was more complex, for here we. have to (lot only with pivots whioso diameter is measured by the tenth of a millimeâ€" ter, l~r250 inch. M. Lcttnl Grunt has BOtIVed the problem, and did it so sucâ€" cessfully. that the first; ball-bearing watch figured at tth Exposition. afâ€"l tel‘ taking a. bulletin of the first class at the Observatory of Bcsan- (km. This watch is a man‘s watch of the ordinary size. All its pivots roll on balls of one-half and oneâ€"quarter millimeter, 1-50 and 1-100 inch, in di- ameter, of hard tempered steel, well rounded and polished. Only the movâ€" able parts of the escapemvent, which receive only an extremely feeble mto-. tive impulse, are without them. It would be suprtrl‘luous to dwell on the skill and patience which M. Gruet must have devoted to the production of such a masterpiece. The execution of. the balls alone constituted a con- ohanism. where the least irregularity might destroy all the advantages in- herent in their use. Besides the general advantages re- sulting directly from thebuse of ballâ€" bearings. there are others more spe- cial ones which 21.113 not less import- ant. It is asserted with reason that the thinness of: the pivots is an im- portant factor of precision and con- siderably lessens the absorption of en- ergy, which must be carefully look- t) W ll HER HUSBAND .

The result is that at. the base of HIV ordinary cy- [ lindrical pivot, which is much weaker than the axle whose cud it forms, is a point of danger, and this often determines the fracture of the pivot. With ball-bearings. the cylindrical form may be replaced with lIlIL‘. coniâ€" cal. This shape enables us to place circular rows of balls with diameter as small as desired. and avoids com- pletely all danger of breakage at the base of the pivot. M. Gruet believes that should be as small as possible. taken [great pains to make balls the uniform size of one<quartcr mil- limeter, 1-100 inch. in diameter, and he hopes that the expense may be con- siderably reduced. It will probably be the halls lfc has of with those. miniature balls as it haS‘ bacn with the tiny screws used in watches. These can now be bought at 10 ccntimes, two cents, a dozen,.| with diameter of oneâ€"quarter millimeâ€" tcr, microscopic pitch, and regularly m-ade head with. slit in the middle. In closingr it may be that “ jewels" of sapphire or other prec- ious stones have no more reason for existence, as they present no advan- tages ovetr tempered steel. The result is a reduction in the necessary labor of manufacture and in the price. To sum up, the ball-bearing watch has made its trial trip. Theory and practice agree that it is an advance over its predecessors, and doubtless the public will confirm this judg- ment. noted â€"_._._.
