Description
Feb. 16, 1932. M. RUPING SECURTNG MEANS FOR RAILS Filed May 14, 1931 ynvenor Patented Feb. 16, 1932 i Aras MAX RPING, or Memoir, GERMANY SECURING ivrEnNsnon RAILS Application led May 14, 1931, Serial No. 537,458, and in Germany September 15, 1930.
This invention relates to securing means for rails on iron sleepers or iron sole plates, in which the rail clips for holding the rails are pushed under stirrups secured to the iron sleeper or sole plate.
Tn order to obtain suiiicient lateral support for the toot of the rail ledges are rolled on the sole plates and the middle parts of these ledges, after being separated from the plate lo by slots, are bent to form stirrups. These plates are then secured to wooden sleepers by means of screws -or nails or are welded to iron sleepers.
According to the invention the manufacture and provision of the stirrup serving as support, and the abutment for the :toot of the rail is simplified by a suciently strong bar iron being bent to form a preferably rectangular or trapezoidal frame, the lower part of which lying directly beside the foot of the rail on the plate or iron sleeper serves as abutment for the toot of the rail. The two ends of the iron bar are bent downwards and passed through an opening in the plate or sleeper and then bent upwards to touch the sleeper or plate, or formed together to a rivet head and may then preferably be'welded to the sleeper or plate.
This trapezoidal frame may .also be f" stamped from an iron plate and provided with a downwardly directed extension, which passes through the opening of the plate or sleeper and is riveted after which it is preferably welded to the sleeper or plate.Y A constructional example of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Fig. l shows on the lett a cross section on the line T T of Fig. 2, and on the right a dilierent construction. Fig. 2 shows a section on the line II-II of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 shows the side elevation of a sole plate with stamped out frame.
The iron sleeper a is provided with a cut away part Z2.
The two downwardly bent straight ends 0` of the iron bar el bent in the form of a closed frame of trapezoidal shape, are passed through this cut away part. The parts of the iron bar c` which project downwards through 5U holes, as shown more particularly in Fig. 2, are bent upwards away from the middle line until they bear against sleeper a, and then as is shown at e on the left hand side ot Fig. l, are preferably welded to the lower surface oi.v the sleeper.
The lower part al, of the iron bar d bent in trapezoidal shape bears against the sleeper and runs parallel to the rails. Tt provides a long abutment from the rails. Also the part 6U Z1 of the clip may, as shown at el, be welded to the sleeper. The welding, however, is generally not necessary. The part 0l, also effectively prevents the wearing out of the ends of the iron bar by the foot of the rail.
On the right hand side of Fig. l, in making the cut away part 2),. the tongue z' is not stamped out but bent upwards'in order to form a good support for the frame d. With this construction it is not necessary to weld 7o the upwardly bent ends c to the iron sleeper.
Fig. 3 shows a sole plate al with a stamped out trame al, provided with a foot extension d2. This foot extension is passed through Y the plate al and framed down like a rivet ,i515 head. This rivet head may if necessary be welded to the plate al.
What I claim is:
1. Means for securing rails to iron sleepers and sole plates having a pressure piece forfso holding down the foot of the rail, a support, under which the pressure piece is placed, comprising a trame bent from bar iron, the lower part of whichbears against the sleeper or plate and serves as abutment for the rail f8.5 foot, and of which the downwardly bentl ends Y pass through a common hole in the sleeper or plate and are then bent upwards to bear against the sleeper or plate.
2. Means for securing rails as claimed in claim 1 in which the frame is welded to the sleeper or plate.
3. Means for securing rails to iron sleepers and sole plates having a pressure piece for holding down the foot of the rail, a support, under which the pressure piece is placed, conuprising a frame stamped out from a plate, the lower part of which has a downwardly directed extension which passes through a hole in the sleeper or plate and is riveted over.
4. Means for securing rails as claimed in claim in which the stamped out frame is welded to the sleeper or plate.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
MAX RPING.
