| To R. {Sir Henry Royce} from Rg. {Mr Rowledge} c. BJ. By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X4037. Rgl/LW.22. 6. 28 F. {Mr Friese} Type Engine - Magneto Drive I am sending you herewith blue print of DES.903 showing a flexible magneto drive. This was drawn with the Simms coupling, but the Rolls-Royce coupling is shown applied to the same design at the top of the print. In this scheme we have an oil well for the spiral gear and the two bearings carried in a common housing. Will you please say if we should make one of these schemes. Rg. {Mr Rowledge} Enc. DES.903. | ||
