Gresley conjugated valve gear

Type of mechanism for controlling steam flow in a reciprocating steam engine

The Gresley conjugated valve gear is a valve gear for steam locomotives designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, chief mechanical engineer of the LNER, assisted by Harold Holcroft. It enables a three-cylinder locomotive to operate with only the two sets of valve gear for the outside cylinders, and derives the valve motion for the inside cylinder from them by means of levers. The gear is sometimes known as the Gresley-Holcroft gear, acknowledging Holcroft's major contributions to its development.
