ASSIGNO'RS OF ONE-THIRD OF THEIR RIGHT TO FREDERICK HOIS- INGTON; SAID RUSS ASSIGNOR WILLIAMS.
IMPROVEMENT OF HIS REMAINING RIGHT TO A. L.
IN NUT-LOCKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,281,11ated December 2, 1879; application riled August 11, 1879.
To al whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOSIAH R. J ONES and ROBERT Ross, of North Lewisburg, in the county of Champaign and the State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Railroad Nut-Locks; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear,
and correct description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, forminga part of this specification.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective view of the splice of two rails withour nutlock means attached. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the nut-lock attachment. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a modification of the same. Figs. 4 and 5 are detail perspective views of the end fastening device. Fig. 6 is a view of the locking-key. I
This invention relates to that class of nutlocks having notches or openings to straddle the nuts of the bolts.
The object of our invention is to furnish a nut-locking means by which the nuts of the fastening-bolts used in the splice of railroadra-ils may be permanently held in position without the possibility of working ofi".
Our improvement consists in a longitudinal plate notched or formed with square openings to straddle or pass over the nuts of the fastening-bolts, and provided at one end with a bent portion terminating in a wedge end running parallel a short distance with the bar, so as to grasp one end of the fish-bar, and capable of being driven under the same, the other end of the longitudinal bar being bent at right angles, ornearly so, and having a staple or other similar device, in combination with a detachable angular piece provided with a slot adapted to pass over the staple of the longitudinal bar, and being connected thereto by means of a key, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In the annexed drawings, the Figs. 1 and 2 represent the adjacent ends of I two T-shaped rails suitably spliced by means of the fishplate or splice-bar H.
The letter A represents the longitudinal plate, which is of sufiicient length to cover and embrace the ends of the fish-bar. This longitudinal plate is formed with a series of notches or square openings to fit the nuts confining the rail-sections together, substantially as shown. One end of this bar or plate A is bent inwardly about the thickness of the ordinary fish plates, terminating-in a toe or wedge, b, so as to be parallel with, or nearly so, the body of the plate. This wedge 11 is designed to be driven easily under the fish or splice bar. The other end is bent inwardly at right angles a little less than the thickness of the fish-bar, and is formed with a staple, S, or other similar device.
The longitudinal bar A is properly adjusted over the nuts of the confining-bolts, and the square openings or notches, being elongated in the direction of the length of the bar, permit the bent portion 0 and the toe or wedge 11 of the bar to pass over and be driven under the fish-bar to secure a firm look at this end.
The angular piece B is now adjusted over the "angular end 0, the slot of the piece fitting over the staple of the longitudinal bar. The flange h of the 'piece B is driven under the fish-bar to secure a hold, and when home the key D is passed through the staple S, which completes the look.
What we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
a. R. JoNEs.
ROBERT RUSS.
