Comments: | "door wheel" is not in Webster. When I read this EDICT definition, I could only think it might mean the wheel on the hatch of a submarine. Three definitions of "door roller" ~ 1) http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/door roller a wheel or roller supporting a sliding door usu. running on a door track 2) http://www.dictionaryofconstruction.com/definition/door-roller.html The operational hardware used primarily on heavy doors, such as refrigeration doors, to allow them to roll. 3) Google ("define:" function) (Door Rollers) Two sets of tandem steel wheels with ball bearings for smooth operation. Usually found on sliding patio doors. * See also "How to Repair Sliding Glass Door Rollers" http://home.howstuffworks.com/home-improvement/repair/how-to-repair-sliding-glass-door- rollers.htm * The following two pages say it can mean "sash roller" as well, but I can't confirm that. 戸 generally means "door", whereas a sash roller is used in a sliding *window*. But it may be true, nevertheless. http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/srch/all/戸車/m1u/ http://eow.alc.co.jp/�ͼ�/EUC-JP/ |
