LEWIS SCOFIELD, JR., OF ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN ELASTlC SEATS FOR RAILWAY-RAIL JOINTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 143,304, dated September 30, 1873 application filed August 4, 1873.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, LEWIS SGOFIELD, Jr., of Atlanta, in the county of Fulton and State of Georgia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Rail-Joint Cushion, of which the following is a specification:
The invention is an improvement in cushionin g the joints of railroad-rails; and relates more particularly Vto a socket-plate for the rubber cushion, which is provided with end flanges to adapt the cushion for use with Wooden sleepers or cross-ties, as hereinafter described.
I n the accompanying drawing, Figure l represents a cross-section of a. railroad tie with the cushion thereon, with a side view of the rails which form the joint, the section being taken on the line x a: of Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a 'cross-section of Fig. l taken on the line y y.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts. l
AA represent the rails. B is the joint. G
is the cross-tie. The tie is cut away to receive an iron plate, E, which plate has lianges F F onits ends on the lower side, which lit into rabbets made in the tie. Around the top side of the plate is a flange, G. H is a plate ot' rubber or equivalent material, which lits into the upper side of the iron plate.
ceive the tlange G, as seen in Fig. l.. I is a anged plate of iron, which fits over the rubber cushion, and which receives the rail, as represented in the drawing. J represents the 4fish-plates.
