Int the application of my improvement the cartruck frame may be very simple, and of the usual construction, as seen in the drawing at A A, Figure 1.
Instead of the usual axle-box I employ-two hangers, E,.attached to the frame and extending to the rave B p Between these hangers are placed two anti-friction rollers, b, which have separate axles, a, Figure 3, fixed in the hangers E E, by being made square at the head,
and tightly held by screw-nuts h.
' play.
The rollers are made with a central groove, f, In 1 order to throw the weight from the center to the ends of the rollers.
a In this groove are holes, 0, for lubricating the rolleraxles, and thus preventing the waste of oil.
Having thus described my invention,
I claim- The rollers b, provided with the grooves f, holes 0, and the separate fixed axles d, in combination with, andsaddled upon the truck-axle D, substantially in the manner as and for the purposes set forth.
