Janene FOR o onnnorine, THE DRAFT-YOK]? 'ro ,THEDRAWLBAE' in "nai lwawcans.
Chicago, in'the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Means for Connecting the Draft-Yoketo'i the Draw-Bar in Railway-Cars, "of which the following a full, clear,- concis'e, and exact desoription,

means for connecting the draft yoke'to the draw bar in railway cars, v
The object of my invention is to provide a safe draw barandyoke connection, and
one permitting the convenient disconnection of draw bar. and yokeiwhen desired,
In the accompanying drawingsforming a view partly in longitudinal section of a draw bar and yoke connection embodyingfmy invention, f'FigglZ'is a side elevation partly in vertical longitudinal section. Fig. is a cross sectional View on line 0f- Fig.2. Figs; 4, 5 an djl 6 illustrate a modipartly vertical, longitudinal section, and

The draw bar 11, -(partly shown in drawings), is provided through its butt 12 with the vertical slot 13. The front follower 14 disposed between the upper and lower limbs of the yoke? is, provided with a'hollow head or hood 15 having the longitudinally extended vertical perforations 16, 16. The limbs 8 and 9 of yoke 7 extend. at their forward ends within hollow head' l5 and engage the butt lZjof the draw bar between them. The perforations 16, 16 in the hollowhead 13 the draw bar-and 10, 10 inthe limbs of-the yoke register to receive the vertical, preferably: flat key 17, which is secured in place by the pin. 18 passed through the key and the, longitudinally 'ex-.

" 4. In a device of the character described,
the combination with the draw bar, draft yoke and key, of a frontfollower provided with a hollow head to receive the draw bar and the draft yoke, the head, draw bar and p yoke being slotted to receive the key, and the mj saidkey being in sliding engagement with draft yoke consisting of a follower provided 1 15,
with a hollow head slidingly connected with athe" draw bar and yoke, an'dprovided with an internal shoulder engaging the draw bar in its buffing movement.
6. Ina device of the character described, in combination, a follower, a draw bar, a
draft yoke and a key, the key passing through the draw bar follower and yoke, the
follower being in sliding engagement with said key.
Wardly extended hood, a draft yoke and necting the draftyoke to. the draw bar, the
