machine combining at least two of the
following sub-systems can be effective in
giving a mechanical advantage to make work

pneumatic/hydraulic systems.
Note: The mechanical elements may consist of
one or more of the following mechanisms:
levers, linked levers, wheels, cams, cranks,
pulleys and/or gears.
The machine may include a mechanical or
electrical control device like a cleat, ratchet
and pawl, or switch.

which syringe is the driver/master).Gases (like
air) are compressible. Liquids (like water, oils)
are incompressible.
