about by reduction of friction D, the
lowest possible point. In other ma-
chimes the bearings are constructed
with fifteen balls. while in the
talcon there ale only nine. In the
Falcon the bearings are so constructed
that the balls have only two points of
| contact in their track, while in most
other machines there are foul. In all
machines each ball will touch at five
points in one revolution of itself.
A wheel with fifteen balls in each
bearing has therefore 75 points of fric
ton in performing one revolution on IL
axle. The Falcon bearing being con
structed with only nine balls has cOnse-
| quently but 10 points Of friction, or 81
| points less in each bearing than othel
machines. Summed up briefly, in al
machines there are six axle bearings.
