To that end my invention consists in buckets Rubber bumpers h are placed at each end of or paddles sustained upon arms that are fitted the slots in the inner rim 0 to relieve the for oscillation in a wheel of nearly the ordinary shock of contact by the arms 0?, and to prevent construction, and in combination therewith jarring and noise.
