Abstract

17,800. Halmy, B. de. Aug. 3. Brakes.-Locomotives and railway vehicles are provided with wedge-shaped shoes k which are released to fall on the rails when the locomotive strikes any obstruction, or if the rail points are not correctly set, so that the wheels, or a pilot roller, mount the shoes. The shoes may be normally retained in the raised position by piston-rods h working in cylinders g connected to the train-pipe d. A frame a is mounted in front of the engine &c., and is connected to a cock e so that when the frame is moved backwardly the cock e opens the train-pipe d to atmosphere. Or the blocks may be held raised by spring hooks which are released when the frame a is moved backwardly. The shoes k are provided with a slot l in which the pivots i of the jointed or rigid rods h slide when the wheels mount on the blocks. The frame a is provided with arms b, Fig. 3, which strike against the rail switch tongue n when this is in an intermediate position as n', and by moving the frame a drop the shoes on to the rail.
