To 'all whom may concern:
Be it known that I CHARLES J. NASH," a
citizen of thedJniFed states, and resident of Chica 0, county of Cook, and State of Illinois, ave Invented certain new and useful Imprdvements in Railway-Cars, of which the following is afspecification, and which are. illustrated in the accompanying drawin'g s, forming a part thereof;
he inventionrelates to the means for transmittin to the car pulling and buffin stresses, an more particularly'to the dra arms and their relation to and connection with the sills. and transom of the car.
The objects-'mf'the invention are to provide a draft arm of light weight but great strength, and adapted to communicate the stresses of service not only to the sills but to the transo together with means for transmitting butiing stresses through the bolster at the end of the car to which they are applied to the bolster at the opposite end of the car.
The invention consists in a structure such as is hereinafter described, and as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view of the draft arm in perspect1ve,sho\ving its inner face; Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the outer face of the arm; Fig. 3 is an elevation of the draft arm as applied to the sills of a railway car, the
inner fa'ce of the arm being shown and some of the parts being in section, the outline of some portions of the draft rigging being shown in dotted lines; Fig. 4 is asectional detail on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line -5 of Fig; 3; Fig. 6 is a sectional view .on the line.6,6 of
Fig.8; Fig. 7 is a detail longitudinal vertical section of the car; and Fig. 8 is a detail plafi'view of the under-framing of the car.
T ie draft arm is an integral casting, and is shown as extending from the plane of the fr ont face of the balling plate 10 backwardly over and beyond thebolster 11. The armis 13, so located as to coiiperate with the fol.- lower plates of the draft gear which is to be used in connection with it, and is shown as having an aperture at 14 between the draft shoulders for accommodatingthe' transverse rod of 'aCirdwelI gear and at 15 to accommodate a key, as 16, for connecting a conpler, as 17,with a yoke 18.
lppllcatton nled September 18, 1818. Serial lio: 789,445.
The arm is adapted to be fitted to the under face of a sill 19, and is provided with an ppper horizontal flange 20 which bears against the lower face of the sill and is provided with suitable bolt-holes to accommodate the bolts, as 21, to pass through the sill. The upper face of the arm is-also rovided with bosses 22, 23, which enter sui able recesses or gains in the under face of the sill and transmit the stresses thereto. The flange 20 extends to the forward end of the arm and is bolted to the buffing plate, as
shown'at 24, and is ofl'set downwardly to;
form a shoulder 25 which bears against the rearward face of this plate. A lug 26 extends upwardly from the arm and faces forwardly, and is so disposed as to abut against the rearward face of the end sill 27.
At its forward end the arm is provided with a vertical rib 28 on its inner face, which forms a stop for limiting the lateral movement of the 'coupler. The rearward end of the body portion of the arm takes the form of a vertical shoulder 29. adapted to bear against the front face of the bolster l1, and an extension 30 of the arm pro'ects upwardly and backwm'dly over the bolster along the inner face of the sill l9 and' is provided with a downwardly exte'ndin lug 31 for engaging a. casting 32 comprising a body portion 32 in the form of a plate, located between and extending under the center sills 19 of the car and abutting'against the reiu'wardface of the bolster 11, and timbers 33 fitted to the lower faces of the sills and which are preferably of such length as to cooperate with a similar plate at the op- )osite end ofthe car, asshown in Fig. 7. he extension 30 of 'the'draft arm is bolted to the castin i32, as shown at 34.
Heavy bu 'ng stresses tend to depress the forward end of the sills and to break them directly over-the bolster. The draft arms herein shown and,described, with their
