Application filed June 8, 1912. Serial Ho.'702,52 5.
Rail Chairs and Fasteners, of which the following is a'specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to a rail chair and fastener, and the objects of my invention are, first, to provide a novel chair for supporting a rail upon awooden tie whereby the tie will not be worn by a movement of the rail; second, to furnish therail chair with novel fasteners for positively supporting the base flanges of a rail upon the chair; third, to provide arail chair and fastener that can'be used in connection with the present type of wooden tie and quickly arranged to support the present type of rail,
and fourth, to provide a rail chair and fas-' tener consisting of comparatively few parts that are durable and inexpensive to manufacture. l
I attain the above objects by a mechanical construction that will be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed, and reference will noW be had to the drawing, wherein p Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a portion of a tie rovided with the rail chair and fastener, ig. 2 is a plan of the same, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a fastener member.
A rail chair in accordance with this invention comprises a tie plate 1 that is provided with a plurality of depending prongs 2 adapted to engage in the top of a wooden tie 3 and anchor said tie plate relatively to said tie. The plate 1, adjacent to the outer edge thereof, has a longitudinal outer fas- 8 that are driven in the tie 3 to hold the outer end of the tie plate 1.
The edge of the tie plate 1 has a longitudinal inwardly projecting curved'brace 9 7 that is provided with vertical openings 10 al ning w th openings 11 in the tie plate 1, sald openlngs accommodating spikes 12 employed for securing the inner end ofthe tie plate 1 upon the tie :3. The tleplate 1, adjacent to the brace 9, has a long tudinal seat 13 extending from one edge of the tie plate to the opposite edge thereof. The seat 13 accommodates a rail flange 16 ofthe rail ,6. The flange 15 of the inner rail fastener engages the inner wall of the brace 9 and the flange 15 is notched, as at 17 to provide clearance for the spikes 10. 1 After the rail fi-is placed upon the tie plate 1, the inner fastener is driven into position and then the spikes 12 driven into the tie 3 to lock the innerrail fastener relatively to the tie plate 1.
What I claim is A rail chair and fastener comprising a tie plate for supporting the base flange of a rail, a longitudinally extending outer fastener integral with said plate at a point removed from the outer longitudinal edge thereof and adapted to overlap the base flange of a rail, a curved'brace integral with theinner longitudinal edge of said plate and provided with vertical-openings, said plate adjacent to said brace cut away to form a longitudinal seat, an innerrail fastener mounted in said seatand engaging the upper and lower faces of the base flange or a rail,- said curved brace overlapping-said inner fastener, said inner fastener having notches alining withsaid openings, said tie plate having that portion projecting from the outer fastener provided with openings, spikes extending through the last mentioned openings and spikesextending through the openings of the brace and the notches of the inner fastener. 7
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
