Abstract
688,468. Hauling railway wagons. NORTONS (TIVIDALE), Ltd., HOWARD, A. M., and HARPER, W. G. Oct. 11, 1950. [Oct. 19, 1949] No. 26896/49. Class 104 (ii). In a railway wagon haulage apparatus in which a bogie runs on a narrow track between the wagon rails and carries a hook to engage a wagon axle the hook is of an upright U-shape pivoted about an axis transverse to the bogie and is raised from a position in which it passes beneath the wagon axle to a position in which one of its jaws will pass the axle whilst the other jaw will engage the axle to tilt the hook to a position in which the jaws will embrace the axle and the hook will be retained in such position by a catch. A bogie 1 mounted on a narrow track 8 arranged between standard gauge rails is drawn in one direction by a main hauling rope 22 attached to a spring buffer 24, and in the other direction by a trailing rope 26 connected to a cross-head 14 slidably mounted between channel members 12, 13 of the bogie and movable between stops 18, 20. When the bogie 1 has been moved to a position beneath a wagon additional tension is applied to rope 26 to slide the cross-head 14 towards the stop 20 and, through links 38, to move arms 34, 35 and rollers 42 carried by a hook member 28 mounted thereon upwards into a position in which the rollers 42 will engage the wagon axle 30. The bogie 1 is then moved along by the rope 26 until the pressure between the rollers 42 and the axle 30 overcomes a spring 45 to rock the hook member 28 to rest above a pivoted catch 50 and move rollers 44 into a position in which they will engage the other side of the axle 30. Provided tension is maintained in rope 26 the wagon may now be moved in either direction by the bogie 1. When the tension in rope 26 is released the cross-head 14 moves towards the stop 18, the arms 34, 35 and rollers 42, 44 are lowered and the catch 50 is tilted upwards to release the hook member 28 by the descending arms 34 carrying the catch 50 into engagement with a stop 56 whereupon the hook member 28 is rotated by the spring 45 into contact with a stop 46. Specification 688,467 is referred to.
