Abstract

889,390. Uncoupling mechanisms for railway vehicle automatic couplers. DOWTY HYDRAULIC UNITS Ltd. Oct. 5, 1959 [July 14, 1958], No, 22518/58. Class 103(5). By moving a lever 18 out of its gate 28 and in a horizontal plane either to the right or left in Fig. 1, the lever may be caused to fulcrum about point 22 or point 23 respectively and pull on a chain 13 connected to the lock release mechanism 14 of an automatic coupler 11. In Fig. 2 a link 31 is pivoted at 32 to the vehicle underframe 10 and at 17 to the lever 18. In a further embodiment (not shown), a single lever is pivoted on a vertical axis on approximately the centre line of the vehicle, and a chain extends from each of two points on the lever lying respectively on opposite sides of the pivot to the release mechanism 14 on the coupling. Specification 843,365 is referred to.
