Abstract

867,609. Railway vehicle automatic couplings. DOWTY HYDRAULIC UNITS Ltd. Oct. 15, 1958 [Oct. 15, 1957 (2)], Nos. 32223/57 and 32224/57. Class 103(5). An automatic railway coupler operating with an inclined swing comprises a bifurcated base 3 pivoted at 4 to a drawbar 2, a latch 9 pivoted at 8 to the base 3, a spring urged locking pawl 13, and gathering horns comprised by a pair of sheet metal stampings 18, 19 angled, flanged, and welded together at 30. The horn portion so formed is screwed through holes 27 to the base 3, and the traction forces are transmitted from the latch through the base portion only of the coupler head. In a modification the horns are made of bent steel rod or tube socketted to the base. Specifications 843,365 and 851,293 are referred to.
