Abstract

Enhancements made to a device for connecting the adjacent ends of two rail cars having a female member secured to the end of one of the cars and an open end cavity therein, a male member secured to the adjacent end of the other car and having a outer end received within the open cavity, and a pin extending downward through openings in the male and female members to interconnect these pivots, the enhancements of which include contoured inner side surfaces and an inner end surface in the opening of the male member separated from the pin, and a pin support block extending between and abutting with the pin and the inner end surface, the pin support block having extensions extending partially around the pin and an outer protrusion at each extension, which can be applied to an adjacent contoured internal lateral surface Before the opening of the male member.
