What 𪱾 means
It names a wooden support for winding silk. The Shuowen Jiezi, an Eastern Han dictionary of Chinese characters, records that sense under 檷; the support held thread as silk was wound. 𪱾 is a reduced form linked to that character.
Chinese dictionaries also record 檷 for a wooden block placed against a wheel to stop it. In another reading, it appears in 檷枸, the name of a legendary mountain.
