The rotary blower sucked the mixture from the carburettor and delivered it to a passage communicating with the inletports in the cylinder walls.
The inlet valve in the crown of each piston was mechanically operated in a very ingenious manner by the oscillation of the connecting-rod.
The pump supplied the mixture under slight pressure to an inlet port in each cylinder, which was opened at the same time as the exhaust port, the period of opening being controlled by the piston.
After the piston has again covered the exhaust ports the mixture begins to be compressed, thus automatically closing the inlet valve.

The valves were fitted to the cylinder heads, the inlet valves being of the automatic type, while the exhaust valves were mechanically operated from the cam-shaft by means of rockers and push-rods.
The design is of considerable interest to the internal combustion engineer, for it embodies a piston valve for controlling auxiliary exhaust ports, which also acts as the inlet valve to the cylinder.
