" they are girders carrying the Patented May 5, 1936 UNITED STATES} PATE RAILWAY CAR CONSTRUCTION Garth e. Gilpin, Riverside, m, assign or to Union Metal Products Company, Chicago, 111., a corporation of' Delaware Application September 17, 1934, Serial No. 744,429 11 Claims. (Cl. 105-409) The invention relates to railway cars and more particularly to side walls of open top railway cars. These side walls perform two functions. First, they are the load retaining means, and secondly, major portion of the weight of the lading to the body bolsters from whence it is transferred to the trucks. In certain types of other railway cars my construction may also be used.
An object of the invention is to provide a very light and strong car wall which can be quickly and economically made, installed and repaired.
Such walls must bevery light, as it is expensive to transport dead weight in a car and such walls must be very strong'as girders to carry the load referred to above and must be avery strong as vertical beams to carry the horizontal thrust of the lading, which is very great on account of the impact thereof due to the movements of the car when running. The parts of the wall must be capable of easy assemblage because replacements frequently are necessary on account of wearing out of the parts, corrosion and wrecks.
Another object of the invention is to provide 0 the sidewall of an open top railway car with outwardly projecting panels between the vertical strut-ties to increase the cubical capacity of the car and a further object is to. provide some of the metallic wall sheets forming the retaining wall of the car with an integral flange forming a strut-tie so as toincrease the horizontal widths of the outwardly projecting panels longitudinally of the car whereby the cubical c pacity of the car is further increased. 7 x
- A further object of the invention is to provide an integral strut-tie of such depth as, to project beyond the outwardly projecting panels in the wall sheets so as to protect the side walls from being scraped by objects along the right-of-way, protect the lettering and other painting from being scraped or damaged and also to protect the side wall of the car when it is tipped upside down in an unloading machine.
Another object of the invention is to provider means to prevent the strut-tie from deflecting laterallyun der stress; as such deflection would weaken the member both as a strut and as a tie,
Y such means being preferably within the bounding planes of the outwardly projecting panels, so that such panels may be extended to the maximum permissible width of the car whereby the greatest cubical capacity of the car is obtained.
Another object of the invention is to provide a car wall so that the component parts thereof may be secured together by bolting, riveting or welding.
Another object is to provide a car wall wherein the component parts canbe made of pressed steel plates between reciprocating dies. 5
Another object is to provide a car wall to ob-' taln'the maximum cubical capacity of the car commensurate with the strength requirements.
Another object is to provide a car which will dump the entire lading when turned upside down 10 in an unloading machine.
Another object is to secure the ends of the strut beams (or one of them) to the frame members of the car so as to form restrained beams.
Another object is to form the integral flange 15 with a reflange so as to materially increase the strength thereof and also so this reflange may be secured to one or both of the frame members.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1- shows a partial side elevation of an open 20 top railway car provided with a 1 side wall in "accordance with my invention.
Fig. 2 is a section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.-
Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on line 3-.3 of Fig. 1.,
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary perspective view of the exterior of the side wall of a car in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 5 is similar to Fig. 4 but shows an interior view of the car.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing one means of preventing the strut beam from buckling under stress. t
' Figs. 7 and 8 show other means of preventing the strut beam from buckling understress.
Fig. 9 shows a modified construction of my inventionwherein the adjacent wall plates are welded together.
Inthe form of my invention illustrated the wallof the car comprises spaced apart upper (2) and lower (3) chords or other framemembers and a plurality of wall plates 4 extending therebetween and forming the load retaining means of together, whereas Fig.
- under stress intervals along so preferably secured to one or both frame members 2-3. v
Each-of the wall plates is formed, with an outwardly projecting panel It) so as to increase the cubical capacity of the car. The panel of the flanged plate l2 (Fig. 3) merges into the plate ll adjacent the base of the flange 6 and the panel of the adjacent plate l6 merges into the plate I I, which plate I1 is secured to the flanged plate I2 adjacent the base of the flange 6. In other words, the panels'merge into the body portion of the plates as close to each other as strength requirements permit so that the horizontal widths of the panels longitudinally of the car are increased (over the paneled side wall having separate strut beams) whereby the lading' compartment of the car is further in creased in cubical capacity. .Figs. 3 and 6 show the flanged and the u'nflanged plate overlapped and the rivets l9 secure the overlapped portions 9 shows the flanged and unflanged plate designed fora welded connection wherein the sloping walls 28 and 22 of the adjacent pane ls 24-26 are even closertogether than in the riveted construction. Numeral 28. designates the flange and 30 the reflange.
The sloping parts ll-l8 of the wallplates l2-l8 respectively cooperate with the flange 8 to form a strong column and a strong beam '(or strut-beam) between the upper and lower frame members. The reflange 8 preferably projects towards the flanged wall-plate so that the reflan ge 8, flange 6 and overlapping portion l8- (of the flanged wall plate) form a channel section, which is" a very strong section.
In the preferred construction the integral flange 6 or strut beam greater in horizontal depth than the depth of the panels so that theflange 6 (or the reflange 8) projects beyond the outer plane 48 of the panels, thus protecting the panels in the wall sheets. See Fig. 3.
A single beam member, suchas the flange illustrated, deflects laterally under stress, thereby weakening the member as a beam and also as a strut; therefore, I preferably provide means to prevent the strut beam from deflecting laterally such as the triangular shaped inwhich may be positioned at spaced the flange 8 preferably between the rivets I8. These indentations, or stiffening meanscxtendintoapartoftheflangeandapartof the .body of the plate.
Figs. 6, 'I and 8 show other forms of'stiffening' dentation 42 means for the flange wherein Fig. 6 shows a strap 84 overlapping the reflange 8 and secured thereto, which strap is secured to both of the adjacent panels of the wall sheets. Fig. 7 shows a form wherein the short straps l6 and 88 are secured to the reflange 8 and the adjacent panels but are positioned between thesloping webs. 50-52 of the adjacent panels; 1. e., within the" bounding plane of the outwardly projecting panels; These straps 88-48 may be welded as shown on the drawings or riveted. Fig. 8 shows an arrangement wherein a preferably flat plate 56 is welded to theflange 6 and the reflange also preferably to the body of theplate at 51. I Fig. 9 shows a modification wherein the flanged plate and ,unflanged plate are welded together.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the preferred form of the invention, though it is to be understood that the invention is not limited o. the exact details of construction shown and described, as it is obvious that various modiflcafening means for. the flange.
