Fig. 5 the end of the equalizer. Assuming the spring to be hung fromthe top of band or buckle, as at A, then the path of the suspen-sion point at the end of the spring is an arc represented byZ, Z,, struck from the center A. The path of the hanger isdetermined by these aics, and they are so located as to tend tochange the angle between the hanger and the vertical linevery rapidly. In a word, the only time the hanger remains
