I have some of those! We used them with tracing paper to mark darts and other markings on fabric when making clothing. We slipped the tracing paper (colored carbon paper folded in half) between the layers of fabric and then used the wheel to run along the lines on the pattern...marking the fabric with the line.

I hated that tool. In homec class we were required to use it and I just marked my project with a pencil for the darts. My item was perfect but the teacher marked me down because she said I skipped a step. I told her I marked the seam but she said she couldn't see it. -- I helped my friend on her robe. Actually I made most of it. We got an A on it. I got a B on mine because I didn't use that awfull tool. That was 41 years ago.
