EVOLUTION OF
MINE WHEELS

The question Of the design Of mine car wheels has been given
little consideration. until the last ter. years. This is probably due
t.. the fact that the demands of service Of wheels was light and. Of
little Importance to the general industry.
Wheels were originally made with straight spokes and I'M
chilled treads and without any oiing device in the hub. The first
mine car wheels were made without any fanges and We're tapered
il the bore; II fact they We're used On cars that were pushed BY
hand on fiat boards used as rails. This type of wheel was soon
replaced by wheels with. fanges, and iron rails were used on the
main roadway. These cars We're either pushed by hand or hauled
by large dogs.
Mule and horse haulage was soon introduced. The t:apered
spindle was soon eliminated on account of its extra cost Of taper
boring the wheel and the. straight spindle was used with a com
mon wheel, in which an oil hole was drilled between the spokes
leading to the axle.
