JOSEPH BOOTE, OF HAMILTON, ON'IARIO, OANADA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CAR-REPLACERS.
Specifica.tion forming pa1t of Letters Patent N0. 18 l,766 dated September 5, 1876; application filed February 24, 1876.
T0 all whom it mag; concern Be it known that I, JOSEPH BOOTE, of the city of Hamilton, in the eounty of Wentworth, in the Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, have invented a certain new and' useful Improvement 011 a Machine for Replacing Rolling-Stook 11p011 a Railway-Traek and I do hereby deelare that the followiug is a full, clear, ancl exacl: description 0f the construction and operation 0f the same, reference being l1ad 120 tl1e accompanying drawings, in whieh Figure 1 is a side view of the inveution. Fig. 2 is a plan 0f the sa1ne. Fig. 3 is an end view.
'Ibe object; 0f my invention is t0 provide a stock1eplacer wlxich is simple and ligl1t in its construetion, readily adjusted and fastened t0 the 1ailin such a1nanner that when in use the rail is 11011 strained as it isbymany 0t tl.1ose now in use.
A is a wrought-iron Clip, one end of whieh, when applied, fits over the head of the 1ail, the obl1e1 01 lower end being spiked t0 the sleeper. Itmay be further seeured bya wooden wedge, B, 01 fastened 130 the rail by bolts. 011 the top of the clip A is riveted 01' otherwise fastened a stud, O. Tl1e replace1 D is ma.de of any suitable material, and is shaped as shown in the drawing, so that; either end rnay be placed 011 t-he stud O, a slot being made ab eaeh end f01 that purpose.
One end of tahe replaeer D having been placed 011 tl1e stud O, the other end is spiked to a sleeper, in such a position that; the replacer will be at; an angle to suit; tl1e wheel which is ofl' the traek. As an auxiliary 110 Ehe replacer, I secure between tl1e rails at an angle, and in a position t0 suit; tl1e wheel which is between the rails, a1 wedge-piece 0f wood, E, which, in
order t0 preserve it may be covered wil:h iron.
As my invention is an improvement on oth ers for the sarne purpose, it; would be superfluous 110 explain l1OW tl1e car is replaced. Suffice it; t0 say that my replacer guides by tl1e tread and outaside 0f Ehe wheel, and not by the flange, as is done b v 0the1 machines used for t-l1e sa-n1e purposean improvement 1 0011- sider of great importz 1nce.
Having thus descr'1bed my invention, what I clain1 as 1ny invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The eo1nbination of the clip A, stud C, a.nd replacer D, attached and placed as and f01 tl1e purpose speuified.
Hamilton, Oanada, August 23, 1875.
