UNITED STATES PATENT Oriana.
GEORGE H. WVABING, OF INDIANTOl/VN, NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA, AS- SIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND CHARLES MILLER, OF SAME PLACE.
FISH-PLATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 239,898, dated April 5, 1881.
Application filed October 26, 1880.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE H. WARING, of Indiantown, New Brunswick, Canada, have invented a new and Improved Fish-Plate, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide an improved fish-plate for use on railroads, whereby the ends of the rails will be more securely held and the transverse strain upon the hold ing bolts entirely avoided.
The invention consists of a fish-plate having around its bolt-holes projecting thimbles whose length is equal to half the thickness of a rail-web, so that when two plates are applied to opposite sides of a rail the thimbles entering the corresponding holes in the web will meet in the center thereof; audit consists, further, of a combination of the plates and thimbles with the rail-web.
Figure 1 represents a side elevation ofa fishplate fastened to a rail-web. Fig. 2 is alongitudinal section of the same on line mm, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a transverse section of the same on line yy, Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
In the drawings, A represents a fish-plate, consisting of a flat plate, A, provided on one face with projecting thimbles a a, of such an external diameter as to fit into the corresponding holes, I), made through the rail-webs B, so
(No model.)
that when the said rail-webs B contract or expand said thimbles a a support all the strain. Said thimbles a a are half as long as the thickness of the web B, so that when two fish-plates,-
A A, are fitted upon'rails as shown, their thimbles a a meet in the centers of the holes I) b. The bolts 0 Care then inserted through the thimbles a a, and held in place by nuts 00, as shown.
It will be seen the bolts (3 G are entirely protected from lateral strain, because of being incased in the thimbles a a. Hence said bolts 0 G will not readily become loose, and will last 2. The combination, with the rail-web B, of
the fish-plates A, thimbles a a, and nuts and bolts 0 a, substantially as herein shown and described.
