Abstract

963,413. Railway vehicle automatic couplers. NATIONAL CASTINGS CO. Aug. 21, 1962 [Sept. 5, 1961], No. 32061/62. Heading B7T. A fixed jaw coupler comprises a pulling jaw horn 20 which increases horizontal gathering on the pulling jaw side and is provided with a horizontal surface 22 adapted to underly the horn 23 of a mating coupler. The horn 20 is canted inwardly to avoid interfering with train pipe connections normally mounted beneath the coupler, and a surface 30 on the buffing jaw may ride up the horn sloping surface 24 during vertical gathering.
