The middle and rear wheels of the carriage are generally arranged in an equalising
frame, and the fall rope or hoisting rope is supported at regular intervals by the Lidgerwood-Miller patent button-stop fall-rope carrier. These carriers also support at the same time the in-haul rope, and where a dumping rope as well is used, these carriers support all three ropes. The latest form of these carriers is made hinged at the top according to Spencer Miller's patent, which equipment absorbs the shock when cableways are used at a great speed. These hinged supports are shown in the figure .
