Y Y. neen RAIL.
Alplieatioh'lea september 25,1923. semina. 664,721; I' p crete roads, walks, and theY like. My aim is l to provide ar'oad rail that shall bev easy and convenient to use; strong and rugged in servicea'nd not readily damaged; and very sim! ple and inexpensivezto manufacture.`
My preferred form of rail -herefspecially illustrated andV 'described 'resembles' somewhat that shown in theLovxte'rman Patent No. 1,37 9,457 granted May 24, 1921, andassigned to' theY assigneeof this application.
However,y the railhere shown is simpler, stronger, and more rugged 1n construction,
" and involves fewerparts'; it can be vmore readily' andmperfectl'y-r adjusted to varying conditions of use; it is easier andj less exvpensive to manufacture; and rits accessory rail andfanassociated part or device.
Fig. 4 is a plan view of one of the parts.
shown in Figs. L3, separate from the rail. 4 In the construction of concrete roads and' the like, rails or forms of the general type here involved `are employed to sustain the concrete at the edges of the roadway while it isfbeing poured or 'spread and until it f l hardens. These rails arelined up to a chalk line or cord stretched'at line and grade Acorresponding to the edge orcorner of thecon-V crete roadway. They are usually supported .1
either directly on thegrade, or on earth'or fragments of stone placed or rammed under them at suitable intervals, andare held in place by` stakesl driven in the ground. It is sometimes advantageous, however, tobe able Vto support the rails at the proper height by 4-means of the stakes themselves, independentp ly of the .immediately4 'subadjacent' soil,-
especially in cases where the soil is soft, or
may be softenedbywaterrunning under the rail Y during the ,placing of the concrete. .r Like the -Loxterman rail, mine here 'shawn jinstance, a single type of device v11 is pr0' 4vided for all these functions..
and described Vcan be supported this man` nervery easily and effectively.
The rail5 vhere shown has the form of .a
channel Vwith. vrather widev lower `fiange 6,
andwith'upper flange 7 turned-down near .6 0 its edge as indicated at 8 (and `asfals'oshoWn "in the Loxterman patent). However, while lthe channel form ofrail has the advantage vof simplicity,strength, andof au perfectly y plain inner face to take the concrete, other for any reason, At suitable intervals, "the rail length 5'is,reinforced land stiffened against deformation from its channel shape,
splice or engagement means. In the present `The device 11" extends and-engagesfbef` tweenthe channel flanges 6, 7 ,against the channel web, and behind the downturnedv i portionv 8 of the'upp'erflange 7. Thisdelv vice 11 also presents Aan opening 'foi-the stake 10, vwhich when in lplace extends 'on`; down through one of vthe holes '12 'punched or drilled in the lower flange 6 at convenient intervals. lThe device V11 be rmly se-V cured to the post 10 in anyconveni'ent man' ner: as here shown, itis held fast-fon the post bypa wedge key 18 driven thronghl'y-l way apertures 14 inthe stake-embracing portion of said device 11'.` p `As here shown, the device 11 consists essentially of a piece of sheet metal c ut, orgstamped to proper shape, and bent? 'nearly double on itself,
strap fashion, to *fitl thestakes 10. TheV sides y i vof this 'stake strap areextended inwardv to' abut rmly against the channel' web when` the keyi13' is driventighaandare widened lor extended upward at 15 to engage-close under the vupper` flange 7 .and behindv the' with a fbea'ring shoe 16, as it may be downturnedfportion'.
