' J. HOJNOWSKI I COMBINATION TIE AND RAIL FASTENING Filed Fab. 1. 1928 Patented Oct. 30, 1928.
UNITED STATES JAKOB I-IOJNOWSKI, OF NEKOOSA, WISCONSIN.
COMBINATION TIE AND RAIL FASTENING.
Application filed February 1, 1928. Serial No. 251,077.
My invention relates to improvements in railroad tics and in rail fastening means,- particularly to metal ties, and it is the prmcipal object of my invention to provide a combination railroad tie and rail fastening which will positively hold rails and t1es 1n their'proper position secured against displacement by pounding of the wheels and their flanges of the rollin stock traveling over the rails.
Another object of vmy invention 13 the provision of a combination rail tie and fastening in which a shoe firmly engaging a saddle formed with the tie, can be locked in its position by simple, known means to provide a secure hold for the rails on the A further object of my invention 18 the provision of a tie having a median saddle formed by grooves to both sides thereof shaped in the top plate of the t1e adapted to form lower ridges firmly embedded in the road bed, and apt to hold the tie firmly in position theron under the assistance of lateral flanges of the tie.
A still further object of my invent on is the provision of a combination metal t1e for the rails of railroads, and rail fastening means of comparatively simple and inexpensive construction, yet durable and efficient in operation.
These and other objects and advantages of my invention will become more fully known as the description thereof proceeds, and will then-be specifically defined 1n the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawing fornnng a material part of this disclosure Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a combinat on tie and rail fastening constructed according to my invention, the rail being shown in section.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a sectional end elevation of the tie and rail fastening combined therewith.
Fig. 1 is a perspective detail view of a rail fastening device employed with my 1nvention on a somewhat enlarged scale.
The metal tie is'composed of a frame having a pair of side walls 11 and 12 in tegrally made with a top plate 13, angularly disposed thereto, and depending therefrom to form a space14, for the reception of the material forming the road bed.
The top plate 13 has formed to both sides of its "central or saddle-shaped median part 15 a pair of grooves '16 and 17 respectively by depressing the material of the top plate so as to form lower ridges 18 and 19 respectively.
The rail fastening used in combination with my tie consists of a shoe 20 having a top plate provided with an elongated slot 21 near one of its ends while the side walls of the shoe, designated 22 and 23 respectively, depend-from the plate 21 at both sides thereof and form a space 24 adapted to engage the saddle part 15 of the tie when the rail fastening device is in its operative position.
Thefront part of the shoe has the shape of a curved, bevel-tongue, 25 forming angular offsets 26 with the side walls 22, 23.
My device operates as follows The rails 27 are placed with their feet upon the ties in the usual well known manner and the foot flanges 28 are secured to the tie on one side of the rail webs by means of bolts 29 provided with lower, inner heads, 30 andheld in position by means of nuts 31 firmly engaging the foot flanges 28 when screwed home and which may be locked in position by any of the well known nut looking devices- On the opposite side of the rail webs, the
foot flanges of the rails are engaged on top by the tongue part 25 of the shoe 20, while the offsets 26 firmly engaging the side edges of the rail foot flanges and the saddle entering space 2 1- of the shoe which is firmly held against lateral displacement by the en gagement of walls 22 and 23 with the side edges of the saddle15, as shown in Figure 3.
A bolt 32 having an inner lower head 33 is passed with its shank through opening 21.
A washer 34L is interposed between the shoe 20 and a fastening nut 35 to securely hold the parts together which may be locked in position by any of the well known nut locks.
It will be understood that I may make such changes in my combination tie and rail fastening as come within the scope of the appended claims, without departure from my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. In device of the class described, a I
metal tie comprising a grooved top plate, depending side flanges on said plate to form a space for the reception of the road bed material, means formed by the grooves to firmly hold the tie in place in said material,
a centrally located saddle formed by the grooves on said top plate, said saddle adapted to be engaged by the rail fastening means, and a means for firmly locking the parts in their relative adjusted positions.
2. In a device of the class described, a tie, a median saddle formed thereon, an elongated tongued and longitudinally slotted member or rail fastening shoe comprising means for engaging said saddle portion of the tie, means for firmly holding said shoe on said saddle adapted to engage a rail to firmly secure the same on said tie.
3. In a device of the class described a metal tie, a central saddle formed thereon extending in the direction of its longitudinal axis, an elongated tongue and longitudinal- 1y slotted member or shoe adapted to en gage said saddle at one end, and to grip over the rail foot at its opposite end and means for holding said shoe in engagement With said saddle, and for securing a rail to said tie.
4. In a device of the class described, the conibimi-tion of a metal tie and a median saddle portion formed therewith, with a rail fastening shoe comprising a perforated top
