1.6 Claims.
This invention relates to railway brake beams and more particularly to a truss type brake beam casting.
A general object of the invention is to devise a novel truss type brake beam casting whereinl the tension and compression members as well as the strut and the brake heads are formed as a single casting having end extensions adapted for slidable support on associated truck frame ledges in a Well-known brake arrangement.
Another object of the invention is to provide a brake beam, such as above described, with support lugs or extensions cored away in a novel manner to provide an unusually light and sturdy construction and to afford passage means for foreign matter, such as coal dust and dirt, which n may become lodged in the truck frame support brackets.
A more specific object of the invention is to devise a brake beam casting including a brake head with a hollow outboard guide extension having a vertical passage therethrough adjacent its inboard extremity,
A further object of the invention is to devise a brake beam casting wherein the front wall of each brake head which supports associated brake shoe means is arcuately formed at its rear edges which merge with the tension member and guide lug of the beam in a relatively light, economical, and sturdy construction.
The foregoing and other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a consideration of the following specification and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a brake beam 1 casting embodying the invention;
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary top plan view showing the detailed construction of one end of the beam;
Figure 3 is a front elevational view of the structure shown in Figure 2;
Figure 4 is an end View of the beam taken from the right of Figure 2;
Figure 5 is a sectional view on the line 5-5 of Figure 2;
Figure 6 is a sectional view7 on the line 6-6 of Figure 4; and
Figure 'l is a sectional view on the line 1-1 of Figure 4.
Describing the invention in detail and referring first to Figure 1,-the brake beam casting comprises a truss structure including a tension member 2 and a compression member 4 interconnected at the center of the beam by a strut 6 having a brake lever slot 8 and a pin opening I0.
At each end of the beam the tension and compression members merge to form a gusset I2 connected to a brake head, generally designated I4, and to an outboard guide lug or extension I6 adapted to support the brake beam on an associated truck frame support ledge y(not shown). As best seen in Figure 4, the lug I6 is preferably disposed diagonal to the plane of the truss.
Referring now to Figure 2 wherein one end of the beam is shown in detail, it will be seen that the brake head I4 comprises a substantially vertical rear web I8 connected on the inboard side thereof to the gusset I2 and to the tension and compression members 2 and 4, and the brake head also comprises an arcuate front wall 20 connected to the forward extremity of the wall I8 and to the outboard extremity of the tension member 2. The wall 20 comprises end lugs 22 and intermediate lugs 24 adapted to seat associated brake shoe means (not shown) secured to the brake head I4 by a key (not shown) extending through a keyway 26 (Figures 2, 6 and 7). It may be noted that the inboard and outboard edges of the front wall 20 curve arcuately forward to merge with the tension member 2 and with the lug I6 in a structure having the characteristics of great strength combined with relatively light and economical construction.
The guide lug or extension I6, as best seen in Figures 2, 3 and 5, is a generally hollow member having a top wall 28 with a diagonal inboard segment 30 extending upwardly to merge with the wall I8. The lug I6 also comprises a bottom wall 32 connected to the wall I8 and an outboard wall 34 connected between the top and bottom walls 28 and 32. The lug I6 also comprises a forward or front wall or web 36 having an opening 38 and a rear wall or web 40 having an opening 42.
Thus the walls 28, 32, 34, 36 and 40 of the lug I6 define a hollow member having an internal cavity 44 and an opening 46 extending through the top and bottom walls 28 and 32 at their inboard segments or extremities which are attached to the vertical brake head wall I8. By
. means of this novel construction, the brake beam casting is provided with a guide lug or extension I6 of unusually light construction and great strength. Also the openings 38 and 42 pref.1 vent the entrapment of foreign matter, such as coal dust and dirt, within the associated truckframe bracket (not shown)y forwardly and rearwardly of the lug I6 and the opening 48 not brake head and guide lug are integrally connected to the brake beam truss structure in a novel and economical construction and wherein the guide lug is providedvwith passage means serving to lighten the lug and to prevent the accumulation of foreign matter on the top of the lug or within the associated truck frame bracket forwardly and rearwardly pf the lug.
In the illustrated embodiment, the beam is formed as a single casting; however, the novel passage means through th support lug maybe used in other arrangements, such as, for example, a beam wherein the head and lug are an integral casting secured as by welding or riveting to the truss structure; or a beam wherein the support lug is formed on or connected to the truss structure or its members 2 and 4 and the brake head is connected to the structure as by riveting or welding at a point inboard the lug; or a beam wherein the lug is secured, as by welding or riveting, to the brake head or to one of the truss members 2 and 4.
