Early Marklin hot air engines
« on: November 04, 2023, 01:51:56 pm »
Since no one else is posting here I might as well put up another video. These toys are all from before 1914. The fan is an imitation of a full-sized gear-driven Jost fan from the same period. The pump is a more efficient beta type stirling while the twin has two power pistons and a single displacer in the center. I have never found catalog references for the fan or the pump. Anyone?
