' To all when it may concern:
Bc it known that we, BoirroN S. RUPP and- Jnssa W. JoHNsoN citizensV of the United States, residing at Salt Lake Cit ,in
' thecounty of Salt Lake and State of tali, Vhave invented certain new and useful Imrovements in Metallic Ties, of which the ollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to'metallic railway ties, and Vcomprises a metallic cross-tie, bearing blocks for the rails seated in said tie, and
.clam ing plates arranged to securely and readiy fasten the rails in bearing blocks.
The objects of our invention are: to frol vide a railway tie of the class descri Ad," which is extremely simple inr construction andA inexpensive in manufacture, andfpne which, while comprising a plurality of parts can be readily assembled to clamp the rails in position without the use of the usual spikes.
Another object of our invention is. to pro-` vide a railway tie having clamping means and bearin blocks which can be readily replaced wit out the removal of the cross tie or disturbance of the rails. With these and 'other objects in view, our invention comprises a 'hollow metallic tie, bearing blocks arranged at suitable distances therein, clamping plates adapted to be fastened to said blocks and to secure the rails position on said "thereon, and fastening means for 'securely Fig. 6 shows a perspective view of another( form of outside clamping plate; Fig. 7 .is a perspective View of the bearing block; Fig. 8 shows a View, partly in. seeticn and Apartly in elevation,il1ustratng the method of securing the clam inlg plates and the ixails to the' bearing blocli); ig. 9 is a transversesecton on line 9 9 of F1 8, lookingFin the .direction indicated by t e arrows; ig. lshows a perspective view of the inside clain ing plate, and Fig... 11 is a side elevation o the packin material `or wearing plate used be-1 tween t e rails and the bearing blocks.. I;
Referring to the drawingajl .represents the metallic tie, having the u turned sides ,2, vand forming a shell-li e structure. Stamped from kthe vbottom of the tie -are flanges 3 integral therewith and bent up in such manner as to serve for retainin the bearing block 4. This block is referab y'of rail. These flanges leave holes, designated at 5,\in the bottom of saidl tie, which holes serve to receive extensions-of the clamping plates, as hereinafter described- The fla 3 and, bearin block 4 -are provided with holes 9 and 1 :res actively `:for the reception sides of the block and their respective kolp pro actions 8 vat thetop of vt-hebearin or securing the rai s to the'tie an bearing blocks, we use `the clampingglntes `11, 12, and .18,whichpare-provided with openin 11', 12', and 13'A =respectively,-eoi"- responA ing to' the holes 9 and. 10 'm fthe flanges platell has4 the extension 14 whichftsinto *block is placed between the anges 3 and the wearing rail and the l 1 and 8. P ate 11 is then driven into Vt 4e block-and the 4openin 11 registers with the holes 9 and 10 of the anges and boerin block. Tliebolt 17 is 'now inserted throu "lplate 18 is placed -in position, The nut 1' 1s th'en ti htened un'til e several `.parts ar se curely ockedlto th .eQction, and the sleeve'21 having the tl with the coned` ead 20, elliptical inc oss Se wood and serves tosupport an cushion the' To assemble Ythe several arts of ou'r in? .vention and, secure .the `rai to Othetie, .the

these F i s.'2 and 10 the lugs 16 and 23 are provide at the ends of the clampin plate, said lugs being larranged-.to lit over t 1e sides 2 ofthe tie. When this form of clamping i f plate is used, it isnot necessary to ave the sides 2 out away es at 15, but ordinarily this may be doneV regardless' of the form of clamping late used.
From t e above it will be seen that we have rlgirovided'fa n extremelysiinple and durableztieLfandQdnerto which the rails may be fastened without" the use of the usual spike. 4The tie may be readil `taken apart to insert new packing materia or wearlng plates on to repiace a worn-outpertion. .4 Ordinarily we repose to manufacture our tie of rolled steel), but stamped metal may be 'used for the several parts.` l
`What we claim is':- v n K, .A metallic railway `tieyeonqxorising a body portion, clampin means for the rail, A which directly lengage e rail and an exten-y sion on said clampirg means adaptedt-o be f embedded ijn the ear 2.1L metallic railway-tie comprising a Vbody portion, clamping means for the rail. which-directly engage' the! rail, and an inte gral extenslonnonV said clampingy means adapted to be embedded in theearthlielow thy evel of said tie.
