Section 20.—COMPENSATING AND BALANCE WEIGHTS.

(See also [p. 54].)

[2019]. Balance for a suspended light, lamp or similar article, allowing it to be raised or lowered while the balance weight only travels half the distance, and is therefore twice the weight of the articles balanced.

[2020]. Balance box. The cover is made as heavy as the box.

[2021]. Balanced cutter head for a milling or moulding machine.
