[1601]. Variable fulcrum lever, with shifting pin and hole adjustment.

[1602]. Fusee barrel, as used in clocks and watches to equalise the tension of spring on the movement; may also be employed to give a variable speed. The spring is usually similar to [No. 1484], and coiled in the upper barrel.

[1603]. Variable throw crank pin and slot, much used for variable feed motions in combination with some type of pawl and ratchet gear.

[1604]. Variable travel imparted to the piston rod from the crank by altering the point of attachment of the link A to the slot.
