Knight's American mechanical dictionary : a description of tools, instruments, machines, processes and engineering, history of inventions, general technological vocabulary ; and digest of mechanical appliances in science and the arts . a metallic hub whichforms the axle-box, and has aubricating-chamber and spoke-clamps. 4. A block for scotcliing acarriage or car wheel. upon a horizontal bed, which is susceptible of an os-cillating motion about a center for the purpose of al-lowing the tool to be set at any desired angle. Withthis bed is combined a laterally adjustable tool-holderand a longitudinally adjustable carriage. The car-riage is provided with a contrivance for throwing itin and out of gear, with a feeding-screw for the pur-pose of feeding the tool up to its work with a slowmotion, and retracting with a quicker motion.
