Be it known that we, VICTOR O; STROBEL and ARTHUR: Ho'eREBE-ycitize'ns I of the United States, and residents of Philadelphia,
Philadel hia county, Pennsylvania, have d certain new and useful Im rovements in Traveling Hoists, ofwhichft e folinvente lowing is a specification. i

The electricalconnections for conveying current to thetruck motor and the hoisting motor from" the conductors 27, and the "mechanism for controlling themotors are not illustrated and may be substantially as usual in traveling hoist or crane construction.
- The'hoisting apparatus is suspended from the carriage' at such point that the load susj peuded by the hoisting rope Wlll be imposed eacltoi' the l ngbolts" and arrangeditrans j llliLlIll 'umn truck 5 which is the motordriven traction truck. As the hoisting rope falls in the vertical plane of pivot 17 and the king-bolts and the transversecenter of the 'track structure it. follows that the load will impose no twisting strains upon the carriage or track structure. and that the load is equably distributed at each side of the transverse center of thetrack structure. As the apparatus is moving along the track at cons1 erable speed the tendency of the momentum for the load would be to impose more or less severe side strains as the apparatus takes a curve ,inthe track, were it not for the fact that the hoisting apparatus is free to swing upon its pivot 17 and thus gradually but quickly accommodate the load to the new course of travel.
It is to be observed that each truck wheel is provided with a bearing at each of its sides, thus avoiding overhung wheel construction. The king-bolt connection between the trucks and the carriage permits of the apparatus freely passing any curves which the individual trucks will pass. The traction driving is done entirely at one of the trucks and the traetive power at this truck is applied at each side of the track system independently by independent truck motors the result being a peculiarly satisfactory driving of the apparatus around curves.v The disposition of the hoisting apparatus nearer the traction truck than the other truck causes most of the load to be imposed upon the traction wheels.
