    An axlebox, also known as a journal box in North America, is the mechanical subassembly on each end of the axles under a railway wagon, coach or locomotive; it contains bearings and thus transfers the wagon, coach or locomotive weight to the wheels and rails; the bearing design is typically oil-bathed plain bearings on older rolling stock, or roller bearings on newer rolling stock.

  3. Omni wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omni_wheel

    Omni wheels or poly wheels, similar to Mecanum wheels, are wheels with small discs (called rollers) around the circumference which are perpendicular to the turning direction. The effect is that the wheel can be driven with full force, but will also slide laterally with great ease. These wheels are often employed in holonomic drive systems.

  4. Scrollerwheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrollerwheel

    Scrollerwheels are related in operational principle to rolamite linear bearings (developed at Sandia National Labs in the late 1960s), and like them, they display only rolling friction, and not the kinetic friction inherent in most mechanical bearings. The rollers can have a cross section in a variety of shapes other than circular, such as ...

    The Santa Fe was the first company to have roller bearing trucks made by Timken under their passenger cars, much to the delight of their passengers, and the bottom line for the company. Timken commissioned the construction of a demonstration boxcar in 1943 that was first displayed at the 1948 Chicago Rail Fair.

    It is sometimes called the Swedish wheel or Ilon wheel after its inventor, Bengt Erland Ilon (1923–2008), [1] who conceived of the concept while working as an engineer with the Swedish company Mecanum AB, and patented it in the United States on November 13, 1972. [2] It consists of a series of rubberized external rollers set at a 45° angle ...

  7. Continuous track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_track

    A strong chassis provided the bearings for the drums, and carried the steam engine, fuel and winch. The chassis was supported on "numerous small wheels or rollers" which ran upon the lower iron bands, which "thus form a perfectly portable and smooth road for the platform".

  8. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    Railroads normally use roller bearings which are either cylindrical (Russia) [63] or tapered (United States). [64] The specific rolling resistance in bearings varies with both wheel loading and speed. [65] Wheel bearing rolling resistance is lowest with high axle loads and intermediate speeds of 60–80 km/h with a Crr of 0.00013 (axle load of ...

  9. Roller container - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_container

    A roller container is a container type that can be carried by trucks to be pushed to ground level by help of a hook and level arm with the container possibly sliding on steel roller wheels. Its original usage was in the collection of bulk waste resulting in the creation of the DIN standards to be initiated by city cleaning companies.
