(Kymographion nach Wundt zu plethysmographischen versuchen.)
Description: This kymograph is claimed to suitable for
plethysmographical experiments since it is absolutely soundless.
It can run up to a speed of 100 mm/sec, and thus complete a
record in 5 seconds or move more slowly. The speed regulation is
through settable wind-vanes, through changing the friction drive
(which appears to be much smaller than typical for a Baltzar-type
kymograph), and through placement of weights (on shafts connected
to the spring motor?). Vertical arrow-marks can be placed at any
point on the record through a sled-like holder which can be moved
up or down to any point on the drum. (Expanded caption Copyright
