TRAIN-PIPE ANCHOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 26, 1916.
Application filed December 15, 1913. Serial No. 806,937.
T0 all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, RICHARD WEBB BUR- Nnr'r, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of the city of Montreal, in the Province of Quebec, Dominion of Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Train-Pipe Anchors; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
In equipments for anchoring train pipes as heretofore used it has been necessary when applying the same to remove the pipe in order that the ends thereof might be passed through the anchor thus necessitating `considerable labor and delay.
My invention has for its object to provide a train pi anchor which may be applied to a car wit out disturbing the pipe to be anchored by it and to this end the invention consists of an anchor of inverted U-form with lateral extensions for accommodating the means for attaching the anchor to the usual cross member of the car, and upwardly extending lugs being slotted to accommodate a tapered key. For full comprehension, however', of my invention reference must be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification in which similar reference characters indicate the same parts, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion I.of a railway car with my improved train pipe anchor applied thereto; Fig. 2 is a transverse vertical sectional view taken on line A A Fig. l; and Fig'. 3 is a rear view.
My improved anchor consists of ahorizontal base portion or cross piece b having spaced upright lugs c of greater thickness than the base, the space separating them being sufiicient to accommodate the pipe d to be anchored and the bottom of this space is formed to present a pair of spaced concaved seats e for the pipe. The lugs are slotted as at f, and the upper ends g of the slots lie in a plane inclined slightly relatively to the general line of 'the base Z1. A tapered key h having its upper side inclined correspondingly with the inclines g.
My improved anchor may be applied without ,disturbing the train pipe by simply fitting it upwardly thereon, the lugs c straddling the pipe and the anchor being raised until the pipe is located in its proper position relatively to the cross member c to which it is secured by bolts m, or any other sultable means of attachment. The key is then driven home thus clamping the pipe rigidly upon its seat and the end of the key is bent over thus locking the parts in their assembled position. This construction affords contiguous to the seat e an opening for accommodating the pipe and the space between the lugs is an extension of such openlng permitting, as above shown, the anchor to be applied.
What I claim is as follows 1. In a railway car the combination with the underframe thereof and a train pipe of means secured to the underframe and straddling the pipe and adapted to grip the same for the purpose of preventing lateral movement of the latter, and being applied without disturbing the pipe, said means consisting of a unitary member of substantially U-form .having extensions for attaching the same and each extension being substantially in alinement with an arm, and the arms presented by said plate member having alined slots and a tapered key adapted to be driven into said slots for preventing relative movement between the pipe and said unitary member.
2. In a railway car the combination with the underframe thereof presenting avertitical surface, and a train pipe extending through the latter, of means secured to the underframe on the said vertical surface and straddling the pipe and adapted to grip the same for the purpose of preventing lateral movement of the latter, and being applied without disturbing the pipe, said means consisting of a unitary plate-member of substantially U-form having lateral extensions for attaching the same, the arms presented by said plate member being of greater thickness than the remaining portion thereof and having alined slots and a tapered key adapted to be driven into said slots'for preventing relative movement between the pipe and said unitary plate member.
3. A train pipe anchor consisting of a cross piece presenting a pair of spaced lugs for accommodating the train pipe in the `space between them, and the bottom of the said space being formed with spaced concaved seats for the pipe, such lugs being ot greater thickness than the cross piece and having alined tapered slots and a tapered key adapted to be driven into the slots, the said key being of greater length than the distance between the extreme ends of the slots for the purpose of having its smaller end bent to lock such key against displace-l ment.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two Witnesses.
RICHARD WEBB BURNETT.
