Abstract

1,047,924. Railway vehicle automatic couplers. LINKE-HOFMANN-BUSCH WAGGONFAHRZEUG-MASCHINEN G.m.b.H. Dec. 10, 1963 [Dec. 12, 1962], No. 48790/63. Heading B7T. An automatic coupler comprises a rigid buffing jaw 2, a guide horn 6 producing a tight lock when coupled up, a pulling jaw 3 pivoted at 7, and a pivoted strap 10 which is acted upon by a compression spring 11 to hold the jaw 3 in the position shown in Fig. 1 when uncoupled. When mating with a similar coupling the jaw 2a of the other coupling pivots the jaw 3 in an anticlockwise direction and by means of abutments 8, 9 pivots the strap 10 in a clockwise direction. When the jaws 2, 2a are engaged within their opposing pockets, Fig. 2 (not shown), the jaws 3, 3a are pivoted back by the springs 11 to latch over the jaws 2, 2a, and the straps 10, 10a are also moved by the springs to engage over the jaws 3, 3a. The straps may be released for uncoupling by mechanical or pneumatic means (not shown) which in one modification may be connected to the coupler locks. A bolt may be inserted through a hole 13 if the coupler is to be used to mate with a Willison type coupler.
