Abstract

20,655. Thomas, E. T. Sept. 17. Rails; rail joints ;rails, securing to sleepers.- The webs of railroad rails are made wider or with a slanting or brace web side, and are located to one side of the heads, so that the resultant vertical pressure and the resultant of all the pressures on ,the rail heads fall within the webs. When the webs are made with a slanting side as shown in Fig. 5, fish-plates D, D' are used at the joints, the fishplate D<1> having a vertical face for the nut F<2> to engage. Fig. 2 shows the form in which the web is merely widened, the broken lines indicating the added metal. Lugs A<3> are formed on the under surface of the base of the rails which engage recesses in the sleepers and prevent spreading, being chiefly of use on curves and steep grades. Fig. 6 shows the method adopted to connect a rail A<b> having a central web and one with a displaced web. The left-hand side of the web divides the head of the rail into two parts having approximately the ratio of two to one; and this side of the web is on the inside of the track. The head of the rails is formed with vertical sides, round upper corners, and an oval or inclined crown.
