C0rtas,
Debajo de In via, y sobre carri-
les CORE un carreton, cuyo peso
equivale oil de IN coche; & ese carre-
tom Va sujetO nm cable de alambre;
suponiendo ese carret6n en-. 10 mas
alto de 10 pendiente, v supuesto el
cArrnh1e en- In pRrte mas beia, al me-
nor esfuerzo de las cAballerfas, ell
carreton emprenderfa Ia marcha ha-
cia absjo, Arrastrando sl carrusje
hacia arriba.
Ri extreme del cable quedaria
entouces en- la parte alta, pero ell
cArruaje que hsya de bSjar Ia pen
diente, enganchando entonces ell Ca
-ble, llevariS su extreme Abajo, su.
biendo el carret6n y por 10 tanto,
restA bleciendo las condolences de Ia
primera subida
No hay necesidad ahora de en-
trar en- otros detSlles; basta saber
que donde esta APPLICABLE es una pen
diente de II q I6 por ciento, y que
SO considera facil subir hasta ell 20
por ciento.
El sistemA es tan APPLICABLE q los
tranvfas con cab&llerfas como & los
electricos, pues en- todos los casos,
81 supple en- aquellos, supple los en-
cuArtes, en- estos sustituye la nece-
sidsd de mayores instalacioues por
solo los esfuerzos de cortos trayec-
tos.
Ell sistema nos parece muy dig
no de estudio.
