GSTAV A. GOTH AND AUGUST WILLIAMS, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 738,028, dated September 1, 1903. l
Application filed May 16, 1903. Serial No. 157,449. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom t may concern:
Be it known that we, GUs'rAv A. GorH and AUGUST WILLIAMS, citizens of the United States, residing at Baltimore, State of Maryland, have invented new and useful Improvements in Railway-Ties, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to new and useful improvements in railway-ties; and its object is to provide sectional ties so constructed as to securely hold in position rail-chairs of novel form.
Nith the above and other objects in view the invention consists in providing a tie formed in two similar sections, each having its inner face provided with parallel longitudinally-extending grooves. A longitudinal recess is arranged in the inner face of the upper surface of each section, and this recess is adapted to receive the base-block of a railchair. This base-block is adapted to extend into the upper recesses in the inner faces of the sections of the tie and is supported upon the partitions formed between the recesses in the tie-sections.
The invention also consists in the further novel construction and combination of parts hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, showing the preferred form of our invention, and in which- Figure l is a perspective view showing rails held in position upon ties constructed in accordance with our invention. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of one of the ties. Fig. 3 is a transverse section through the tie. Fig. 4 is a central longitudinal section through the tie. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one of the tiesections. Fig. G is a perspective view of one of the chairs, and Fig. 7 is a detail view of a spacing-strip.
Referring to the figures by numerals of reference, l l are similar sections, which when fastened together form a complete railwaytie. Each of these sections is formed inla single casting, having parallel longitudinallyextending recesses2 and 3 in their inner faces, the two recesses being separated by apartition 4. The upper surface of each section is cut away at its inner edge, so as to form a longitudinally-extending recess 6, and the inner odge of this recess is beveled. Flanges 7 extend laterally from the upper and lower edges of the sections l and are adapted to form anchors and prevent the displacement of the ties. End flanges 8 are also employed, and these serve to receive binding-bolts 9, by means of which the sections may be securely fastened together.
Blocks l0 are arranged within the upper recesses 3 of the pipe-sections and are supported by the partitions 4. Arranged on each of these blocks is a dovetail extension ll, which is adapted to slide within the slot formed by the two recesses 6, and a liange l2 is formed at the inner end of dovetail 1l and is of such size as to extend over the flange 13 of a rail upon the tie. A strip 14 is also arranged upon partitions 4 at points intermediate the inner blocks 10, and this strip has a dovetail extension 15 thereon which extends through the slot formed by recesses 6. Strip 14 is of such length as to prevent lateral movement of the blocks lO after the same have been placed in position over the flanges of the rails upon the ties. In fastening rails upon ties of this construction the outer blocks I0 are first placed upon the partition 4 in one of the tiesections, and the rails are placed upon the tie and the outer Iianges thereof inserted under the flanges l2 of the outer blocks lO. The inner blocks lO are then placed upon partition 4, with their flanges 12 over the inner flanges of the rails, and block 14 is then inserted between said inner blocks, so as to prevent their withdrawal from the rail-flanges. After the parts have been placed in these positions the outer tie-section is placed with its recessed face next to the recessed face of the section containing the blocks, and the two tie-sections are then promptly bound together by means of the bolts 9. Earth maybe tamped between the flanges 7 of the tie and will, as is obvious,
hold the tie against displacement. It will of course be understood that the outer ends of the recesses 6 will prevent the outer blocks 10 from moving away from the rail-fianges. The tie herein described is extremely simple in construction and can be readily placed in position and, as is obvious, it will firmly secure the rail-chairs in position.
In the foregoing description we have shown the preferred form of our invention; but we do not limit ourselves thereto, as we are aware that modifications may be made therein Without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof, and We therefore reserve the right to make such changes as fairly fall Within the scope of our invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new isl. A rail-tie formed of similar sections, each having parallel longitudinally extending grooves in its inner face, and a partition intermediate the grooves, said partition being adapted to support rail-chairs Within a slot in the tie.
2. A metallic railway-tie formed of two similar sections, each section having parallel grooves in its inner face, a partition intermediate the grooves and extending under a slot in the top of the tie, laterally-extending iianges integral with the sections and forminganchors therefor, and end flanges integral With the sections for the reception of securing means.
3. The combination with a rail-tie formed of similar sections having parallel longitudi- Bally-extending grooves in the inner faces thereof, and a partition between the grooves in each section; of blocks adj ustably mounted upon the partitions, extensions thereon slidably mounted Within a slot in the top of the tie, and flanges to the extension adapted to overlap the flanges of rails.
4. The combination With a tie formed of similar sections, each having parallel longitudinally-extending grooves in its inner face, and a partition between the grooves; of blocks adjnstably mounted upon the partitions and arranged in one of the grooves in each of the sections, a dovetailed extension upon each block slidably mounted Within a slot Within the top of the tie, flanges to the extensions adapted to overlap the anges of rails, a spacing-strip upon the partitions, and adovetailed extension thereto, said spacing-strip Vbeing adapted to prevent lateral movement'of the blocks.
In testimony whereof'we affix our signatures in presence of witnesses;
GUSTAV A. GOTH. AUGUST WILLIAMS.
