🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of a pilot slide valve in a reciprocating steam pump control system • How motion is transmitted from the main piston/rod to the valve gear • Role of tappets, tappet collars, and stay rods in setting vs. actively causing valve movement

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which part actually causes the pilot slide valve to move at each stroke, rather than just holding or adjusting its position? • Which components are mainly structural supports or adjustments, and which ones provide the moving contact that shifts the valve? • Think about how the pilot valve must be moved at the end of each stroke—what physically contacts or links to it to trigger that change?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which listed parts are fixed/structural (do not move every stroke) vs. which move each cycle. • Separate the parts that set the travel limits (adjustment only) from those that directly act to shift or control the pilot slide valve each stroke. • Verify in your notes how a reciprocating steam pump valve gear works: which element actually touches or drives the pilot valve mechanism.
