This invention relates `to shock absorbers and` more particularly to a novelV friction device commonly known as a snubber and utilized in the spring group supporting a railway car truck bolster from an associated frame member.
A general object of the invention is to design a snubber having relatively few parts and great capacity to withstand the impacts of railway service.
Another object of the invention is to devise a snubber wherein the resilient unit which resists compression of the snubber also functions to urge the friction shoes thereof into frictional engagement with an associated friction element disposed between the shoes.
A more specific object of the invention is to provide a resilient unit surrounding the shoes and affording a direct force path between the shoes and each of a pair of spring seats, one movable with the shoes and the other movable with an opposed friction follower on compression of the device.
The foregoing and other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a consideration of the following specication and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure 1 is a side view of one embodiment of the novel snubber, the right half of this figure being shown in elevation and the left half in central vertical section;
Figure 2 is a top plan View of the structure shown in Figure 1 with the left half in section on the line 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary sectional view corresponding to the left half of Figure 1 but showing the snubber in compressed position;
Figure 4 is a side elevation of a modified embodiment, the right half thereof being shown in central vertical section; and
Figure 5 is a sectional view on the line 5--5 of Figure 4.
Describing the invention in detail and referring first to the embodiment thereof illustrated in Figures 1 to 3 inclusive, the novel snubber comprises a top follower, generally designated 2, and comprising an annular base 4 adapted to seat against an associated supported member (not shown) such as a railway car truck bolster. The base 4 is provided with an axially extending wedge or stem 6 cored away as at 8 for convenient foundry practice. The upper end of the cored opening 8 is flared as at 9 to receive positioning means (not shown) on the supported member. Surrounding the stem 6 at the upper extremity ,thereof is an annular web or rib I0 defining a 16 Claims. (Cl. 267-9) chamber I2 with the stem 6 and having a spring seat I4 engageable with a pair of resilientY blocks I6 formed of a fiowable resilient material such as rubber. The blocks I6 bear against an annular backing ring I8 which defines therewithv a resilient unit to resist compression of the snubber, as hereinafter described.
The stem 6 is in rwedge engagement as at 20 along complementary V-shaped surfaces with a pair of friction shoes 22, each'of which is formed with a base 24 affording a seat for the snubber upon an -associated opposed member (not shown) such as a truck side frame. The base is provided with a semi-annular recess 25 to receive positioning means (not shown) onl the supporting -member. Each base 24 is provided with a spring seat 26 engaging one of the blocks I6 and the ring I8 whereby on the compression stroke of the snubber, as best seen in Figure 3,the blocks I6 are compressed between the ring I8, the spring seats 26, the spring seat I4 and the radially outer faces of the friction shoes 22, the inner faces of which are in wedge engagement with the stem 6, as above described. As clearly seen in Figure 3, the axially inner extremities of the shoes 22 on the compression stroke of the snubber extend into the before-mentioned chamber I2.
Thus it will be seen that the novel snubber comprises an annular unit I6, yI8 surrounding the shoes 22 and operable to resist the compression stroke of the device and also to urge the shoes 22 into tight frictional engagement with the wedge stem 6 by compression of the blocks I6 between the seats I4 and 26 and. the outer surfaces of the shoes 22.
Referring now to the modification of Figures 4 and 5, the embodiment illustrated therein comprises a top follower 52 having a base 54 formed with a depending wedge stem 56 and an annular depending rib or web 58 therearound. The web 58 comprises a spring seat 60 which bears against the top of an annular resilient block 62 formed of a continuous ring of any-flowable resilient material such as rubber. Preferably .the block is provided with an annular backing ring 64 having an annular positioning rib 66 recessed in the block 62. However, it will be understood that, if desired, the ring 64 may be eliminated.v
The stem 56 is in complementary wedge engagement as at 68 along V-shaped surfaces with a pair of friction shoes 10, each of which is formed with a base 'I2 affording a seat for the lower end of the block 62 which is also seated asat 'I4 against the radially outer surfaces of the shoes 10. As in the previously described embodiment,
aeod'asi the stem 56 and the rib 58 dene a chamber 16-"said chamber on compression of the device, said for the reception of the axially inner ends of the shoes 'lll on the compression stroke of the device.
As in the previously described embodiment, the modification of Figures 4 and 5 comprises an annular unit 62, 64 disposed around the friction shoes 'Ill for compression betweenvthe spring seat 6U andv spring seats 18 on thel base LI2 of the shoes; and the block E2 thus affords a direct force path between each spring seat 60 and 18 and4 the radially outer surface 14 of each shoe to maintain the latter in tight frictional engagement at 68 with the stem 56. x v v It will be understood that Ido not wish to be' limited by the exact embodiments of the device shown which are merely by way of illustration and not limitation as various and other forms of the device will, of course, be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the claims.
