pulley wheel Explanation: 'roldana' is a pulley wheel in Spanish and my suggestion for prestatgeria de roldanes is 'rolling shelf system' http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3923354.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2010-02-14 10:52:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- What is being referred to is something like a dumb waiter ie. a shelving system that runs between floors. |
