The electric motor is carried in a ffame mountedon spring-supported trucks and a gear having a rigid bearing therein is-operated by the motor. The driven gear wheel meshes therewith and sur-rounding the axle and shares the movements of the motor relatively to theaxle, so as to preserve it in fixed idation relatively to the motor. Elasticcouplings join the gear wheel and the axle. (See Illustration.). No. 542,617.—RU --NING GEAR. AUTOMATIC ATTACHMENT FOR SWITCHING CARS: JosephPhelps, Newark. N. J Filed Nov. 23. 1894.
