The pulleys are mounted upon a 3-inch shaft which extends ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION, ETC. 333 along the top of the central cross beam, and which is provided at its right-hand extremity with a pinion 2§ feet in diameter. This engages witha small pinion that is mounted on the shaft that is rotated by the endlesschain from below. The draw is almost balanced by the weight of therollers. 86i.
