Our picture shows how this isdone: A long cylinder, fixed by a ball jointto a flat plate, is used to hold down thehot plate while being worked on. Thiscylinder is entirely out of the way of work-men, exposes the entire edge of the platein position to work on, and makes it pos-sible for more men to work at once.When out of use the platen and piston arelifted high enough to give a clear floorspace in the shop, PUNCH OUT OLD ST.\Y-HOI,TS.

By carrying hose on a long, swingingcrane, air is taken to the transfer tableand drives it through the medium of aWestinghouse engine.

Ten-Wheeler

Als Ten-Wheeler werden vor allem im nordamerikanischen Sprachgebrauch Dampflokomotiven mit der Achsfolge 4-6-0 nach der Whyte-Notation, die der deutschen Bauartbezeichnung 2’C entspricht, bezeichnet. Ten-Wheeler besitzen ein vorauslaufendes zweiachsiges Drehgestell und drei gekuppelte Achsen. Ursprünglich vorwiegend als Güterzuglokomotiven und für den Einsatz auf Strecken mit schwierigen Steigungsverhältnissen genutzt, entstanden in dieser Achsfolge im Laufe der Entwicklung eine Vielzahl von Bauarten als Mehrzweck-, Personenzug- und Schnellzuglokomotiven. Die Achsfolge zählt zu den am meisten verbreiteten Achsfolgen im Dampflokomotivbau. Überwiegend wurden Schlepptenderlokomotiven mit dieser Achsfolge gebaut, in geringem Umfang auch Tenderlokomotiven. .. weiterlesen
