RAIL-FASTENING. l
Specification ofy Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 7, 1913.
Application filed April 13J 1911. Serial No. 620.720. Renewed June 8, 1912. Serial No. 702,620.
Be it known that l, Santini. B. Kum., a Citizen of the United States, and a resident of the cit); of New York. borough of Manhattan. inthe county and State of Kew Yori.7
have invented a new and `Improved Hail Fastening, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The ohieet oi" the inventiini is to provide it) a new and improved rail fastening. arranged to securely hold the rail in plat-e and to prevent spreading of the same.
For the purpose mentioned. use is made of converging spikes. of Whieh one is the raii 15 spike and engages the rail and the other is the locking spike and engagesl the rail spike to look the latter againaty displacement.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the aeeoinlmnyiug dra\v 2t) ingsl forming a part of this speeilieation7 in which similar (characters4 of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure l is a plan View of the improved .rail fastening as applied for fastening two rails to a tie; Fig. 2 is an enlarged seetional elevation of the same on the line 2-1-2 of Fig. l; Fig. 3 .is a plan view ot' part oi the tie; Fig. i is a. pta'speetive view of the rail spike; Fig. 5 is a similar view of the looking spike; Fig. (5 is a sei-tional side elevation ot.
a modified forni of the fastening; and Fig. T is a cross .section of the lsame.
(.)n top of the tie -k aro arranged the plates or Chaiml l for the rails (j, to rest ou. and
each of the said plates l) is provided with two pairs of depending and ronverging -l'- "'l "l' l2 f rll tl) pottets oi gun ways o v in i .a porket l5 containI a rail spike l) having a head 1) engaging the hase ot the rail C.
40 and the other pocket B2 contains a lorkiug spike IC haring a head ll and an under-rut El to permit of hending the head IC over onto the head D ofthe rail yspike l), to hold the latter against outward movement in its porket l.
By the arrangement described. the spikes l) and if) stand ohliqutly .mnx to the other. with their heads4 D" and li in engagement as destrilitd. No that one spiktx looks the other against outward mort-ment in the vorresponding pockets l', il, as uill he readilyy understood hy refdreut'e to Fig. 2. 'the railroad tie A is preferahly forium of a hotly A. of wood, having transverse reves-ses :for the reception of the porkots l. lli. as
plainly indit'ated in Figs, L) and o. and the said body A is covered with a coating A2 of asphalt7 or a similar \\'ateipi'0 ling material. and the coating A2 is covered by sheet metal A3 to infoteet the Coating .le from being knocked ottJ the body A especially 'when handling. laying:r or re-laying the ties on the road hed.
lt is understood that a pair of bpikes l) and E is used on each rside of the rail (l on each of the plates l. So that' the rail is serureli-y locked in position and is held against'y displarenient and spreading.
lt is understood that in placing the spikes l.) and E in plate. the spike l) is first driven into position in its pocket B until the head 1) engages the hase or' the rail C, and then the Spike E is driven into the pocket B2 and itsI head E heut over onto the head D', so that the corner ot" the head l is engaged by the undercut j and the head E to securely lock both spikes D and E against outward movement.
ln the modified `form shown -in Figs. G and 7, the plate l is provided with single pockets li* and B5 on opposite sides of the rail C. and the said pockets are diver-ging and eaeh is adapted to receive a spike F having a head F engaging the base of the rail From each head F' extends npivar'dly a locking arm F2 adapted to be bent inward under the head of the rail C after the spike i" is in place, as will he readily understood by referente to Fig. 7. By the arrangement described the spike F ia held against outward movementin the eorre- Hpondiug pocket lli or B5 hy the action of the arm l"j and at'. the saine time the arm Ff forms` a brave for thil rail to hold the saine against spreading.
flaring thus deserihed my invention, l 'laim as new and desire to secure hy Letters Patent-' t. rail fastening. rom irisino' :t )late for the rail to rest on and having drpeiiding angular poek't's. rail spikes. and locking spikes engaging thtl poi'ketrs. the locking .spikes haring heads adapted to engage the lnads of the rail spikes. l
2. .`t rail fastening. eomprising a plate for the rail to rest ou and provided with a pair of oblique porkets. a rail spike eangaging one ol the poekets and having a head adapted to engage the rail. and a locking spike engagingg` the other parket and havin;r a head engaging the head of thi rail spike. il. .t rail fastening. romprising a plate for the rail to rest on and provided with a pair of depending and converging pockets, a rail spike engaging one of said pockets and having a head adapted to engage the base of the rali, and a loc ing spike engaging the other a head and an undercut the rail spike to Ward movement.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specilcation in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
SAMUEL B. KULL.
