Application fi led'iAugust 18, 1927. SerialF-o. 213,887.
In the construction of concrete roads, rails or forms'are usually laid along the edges of the subgrade to act as a form for: the concrete, as well as rails upon which a finish- 6 ing machine may ride. It is obviously of primary importance to fasten these rails or forms to the ground in a veryrigid and positive manner. It is universally the custom to employ stakes to do this, stake boxes hav- 10 ing openings therein beingutilized in conjunction with openingsint-he rails orforms to receive the stakes. "Heretofo're the stake boxes and rails ord forms have been of a unitary construction. The assembling of the boxes has always been dependent on the rail or forms. The making of these boxes is complicated by the necessity of attaching them to the rails before they are completely assembled.
This invention has for its primary object to provide a stake box for railsor forms that is completely assembled before it is, attached to therail or form. Such a box supplies "a long felt need in the art, as it 'natua 2 ally facilitates the assembling offthe rail or forms withthe stake boxes, as :well as simplifying the manufacture of the boxes.
In carrying out the invention a stake box of distinctly new design is provided; to-
J gether with novel means for attaching it to.
a rail or form. In the form of the invention embodied herein this means comprises studs, having enlarged heads. which are fastened to the box. These studs are adapted to engage with openings of keyhole formation in the rail or form whereby the box is securely attached thereto.
This invention is further characterized by I, providingmeans for preventing disengagemovement of the box which would cause the studs to disengage from the openings.
With these and further objects in view,
as will in part be hereinafter stated and in part become apparent, the invention comprises certain novel constructions, combinations and arrangements of parts as subse quently specified and claimed. c
F or a complete understanding of the invention reference may be had to the follow-' inwhichz, p
Figure 1 is a perspective of the new stake ing description and accompanying drawings,
- box applied to a road rail.
.Figure 2 is a side View taken with the rail I shown in cross section. I I g. t
Figure?) is a'fragmentary showing ofthe inner face of one side of the rail, illustrating the openings therein by. which the box is attachedg 1 Figure 4 is. an enlarged detail sectional view on-line;4t of Figure 1. Vvhile the preferred form of the invention is herein set forth, it is to be clearly un-. ,derstood that it is not to be limited to the exact-construction set forth, because various changes and modifications of. theseidetails into practice within the scope of the appended ;claims. a
A'rail or formfl which is adaptedtobe laid along the edges of a subgradeand acts flange-dintegral with the inner'side. l The openings 7 extend throughboth offuthe flangesno andfi and are adapted to have stakes T pass therethrough. Any, suitable I means may be used in connecting the flanges 5 and 6. p A particular feature of this inmay bef providedin putting theinvention vention is, however, that the same means I vided in-the rail. As shown in the drawjingsfthese openings are larger atthe, top
than at the bottom. Inthe present form (three oftlies'e openings are shown, although any number found suitable maybe "utilized.
which attaches the bottomof the boxto'the. rail also fastensthese two fiangestogether.
' minate in flanges 12 integral therewith, as
does the top having the flange 13, Studs '14,
ofthe construction shown in Figure 4, are fastened tothese flanges 12 and 13, one bolt being attached to each flange. Thesestuds are rigidly held on the flanges by being riveted thereto. F r
To attach the box to a rail or form, the heads of the studs are passed through the larger portionof'the openings after which thebox is forced downward. It will be noted' that in thelast mentioned position the heads I of the studs will not pass through the reduced portion of the openings, whereby the boxis securely'attached to the rail.
To prevent anynpwa'rd movement ofthe box,fwhich would cause-disengagement of the studs from theopenings,*the box isattached to the-flange 5 in the following manner; h bottomof the sides ofthe box terminate inflanges 15, integral therewith. These flanges have the openings 16' which coincide with the smaller openings in the flanges. of the rail. Bolts or rivets are passed through these openings to securely fasten the various flanges togetheri It will {be noted that after the flanges 15, 5 and 6 have been fastened together, prevention of any upward movementrof the box is obtained, as wellas a rigid construction of the rail, no other means for holding the flanges of the rail together being necessary.
'1 The opening 17' 'n thetop f the box is adapted tohave a stake pass therethrough. 'l he stake passing through this opening and the opening 7 in the railsecurely holds the rail orformto the ground, To acquire a by Letters, Patent of the United States is:
1. The combination, with a road rail or form, having openings therein of keyhole formation, of a stake box, said box including flanges having studs fixed thereto, said studs entering the openings in the rail or form to fasten the box thereto.
2. The combination, with a road rail or form, having openings therein of keyhole formation, of a stake box, said box including side and bottom flanges adapted to bear againsttherail or form, studs fixed to the flanges enteringthe openings in the rail or form, and. means fastening the bottom flanges of the box to the rail or form.
'3. The combination, with a road rail or form, having openings thereinof keyhole formation, of a stake box, said stake box including inclined sideflanges and bottom flanges, studs having enlarged heads fixed to a r to a road rail after the stake box has been I completely assembled. I 5.- As an arti le of manufacturea stake box for road rails orforms comprising a body portion having side and 'bottom' flanges," studs fixed to the side flanges whereby the box may be attached to a road rail or form, and means on the bottom flange forpreventing upward movement of the stake box after it has been attached toa rail or form. 2 In testimony whereof I aflix my signature. GEORGE H. MILLER.
rigid relation betweenthe stake and the box elongatedopenings 18 are provided'in the top portion of the sides of the box. These I openings accommodate a wedge which bears against the stake and the sides of the open- ,ingsjwhereby the desired rigidity, is obtained;
By assembling these boxes in their'en- Y rail is also a orded. It will'be noted that separately,
"the rails or forms and boxes may be shipped ,o
i in which condition they may be readily packed in a very small space. By
tirety'before'they are attached "to the rails positive connection with the w Placing the k y le openings at different i places along therail or form variability in the posit-ion'of the stakeboxesmay be obtained, as desired.
