Description
Dec. 8, 1953 M. s. JOHNSON LADING TIE ANCHOR Filed July 16, 1951 2 Sheets-Sheet l .lll-Ill M. S. JOHNSON LADING TIE ANCHOR Dec. 8, 19.53
2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed July 16, 195] l /A/VENTOR. aZc'o/m 57 r/ozzsojz By 5 un' steel post or frame member I I to which it preferably is intimately secured or welded as indicated at 20 in Figures 2 and 3, thereby integrally uniting the anchor plate i3 with the structural metal post of the car, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. The openings IB preferably are of somewhat oval or oblong shape to readily accomodate the welding rod and at the same time, afford a comparatively large welding surface.
With the continuous walls I9 about the openings and sufliciently below the outer face of plate i3, it is apparent that sparks produced during welding will be confined within the walls of the openings and be prevented from ying orpassing rearward of the wood lining where it might start a nre; the opening-defining flanges or walls are out of contact with or considerably removed from the wood siding or car lining so that possibility of re, by reason of conduction of heat from the metal to the wood, is eliminated.
After the plate i3 has been secured in place in the manner described, the strap or tie-receiving outer member 2l is then applied to the annular plate. The tie bar member 2l is adapted to lie in the depressed portion and flush with or in the same plane as the plate perimetrical flange Irl and consists of the nat bar portion 22, of length sufficient to span the `channel le of the plate I3 f with its ends enlarged to form the segment- like portions 23, 23 which match and are seated on the recessed plateau-like portion of the plate i3 at opposite sides-namely, above and below the channel l5 (which is disposed horizontally when the plate is secured in place) and completely cover the openings I8, I8 in the plate i3 as seen in Figure l. The ared or enlarged ends 23, 23 afford comparatively large welding surfaces, with the welding preferably being done along the inner edges of the enlarged ends 23, 23 and the shoulders il, ll of the plate I3 as shown at 24 in Figuresl, 3 and 4.
Here again, the welding takes place away from the wood lining and beyond the normal range of the welding arc and resultant sparks.
As shown in the drawings, the vertical edges of the tie-bar 22 preferably are rounded to prevent tearing the bands; while the scooped-out cavity I5 and its side walls i1, l1 guide the band rearward of the tie bar 22 and out into the ycar at .the opposite side of the tie bar, so that application of a tie strap or wire is very easily accomplished. The channel l, in installation of the anchor, is arranged horizontally and the depth of the channel at its longitudinal center beneath the bar 22 is of sufficient depth to provide ample clearance for the free passage of the tie strap or wire.
As is apparent from my improved anchor, the pulling strains of heavy lurching commodities will be transmitted to the structural steel members of the car and not to the inner lining or Vsheathing of the car and hence rupture of the joints between the adjacent tongue-and-grooved lining boards is prevented.
The specific exemplication of the invention as shown and described is believed to be the best embodiment of the invention as employed in connection. with a railroad house car, but `it is apparent that the device may be employed in connection with a different type of car and that certain modifications are possible and may be vmade without, however, departing from the spirit of the invention as dened in the appended claims.
adapted to be recessed in the car lining and comprising a single piece circular member whose outer face at a uniform distance removed from the perimeter is recessed and provided with a transversely disposed concave channel having upwardly sloping ends terminating adjacent the perimetrical portion of the member, the member at opposite sides of the channel having openings with rearwardly extending side walls adapted to be secured to a metallic structural member of the car wall; and a tie strap attaching member secured to the face of the circular member and extending transversely of said channel.
2. A lading tie anchor for railroad cars comprising a member adapted to be arranged substantially flush with the car wall and formed to provide a tie strap or wire-receiving channel and a tie fastening portion disposed in a direction transversely of the channel, the anchor being provided at the rear face with openings and rearwardly disposed weldable portions adapted to extend through the car wall into contact with the metallic parts of the car wall and to be intimately secured thereto.
3. A lading tie anchor for railroad cars composed of a metallic member adapted to lie substantially ilush with the car wall and formed on its outer face with a tie element receiving channel, while its outer face is provided with a tie bar disposed transversely or the channel, the rear face of the anchor having integral rearwardly disposed hollow embossments adapted to extend into contact with the metallic structural parts of the car and to be welded thereto.
Li. A lading tie anchor for railroad house cars composed of a metallic plate having a recessed face, adapted to be countersunk in the car lining and having a concaved channel formed transversely of the plate, with the ends of ythe channel sloping toward the forward face of the plate, the plate on opposite sides of the channel having rearwardly disposed hollow embossments adapted to extend through to the structural metallic posts of the car and to be welded thereto; and a tie bar member with laterally enlarged ends adapted to extend across said channel and the hollow embossments and to lie in the recessed face of said plate substantially fiush with the perimetrical portions of the plate, said tie bar member being intimately secured in the recessed portion of the plate. v
5. A lading tie anchor for railroad house cars adapted to be recessed in the car lining and comprising a single piece member provided with a transversely disposed concaved channel with ends sloping toward the forward face of the member, the member at opposite sides of the channel having openings with rearwardly extending weldable marginal portions adapted to extend through the car lining and be intimately secured to a metallic structural member of the car; and a tie strap attaching bar arranged transversely of said channel with its ends intimately secured to the forward face of said i-lrst member.
6. A lading tie Ianchor for railroad house cars adapted to be recessed in the car lining, con sisting of a circular metallic plate provided with a transversely disposed channel having ends sloping toward the forward face of the member and with rearwardly extending hollow embossments adapted to be intimately secured tc a metallic structural part of the car wall; and a tie strap attaching member disposed transversely of the intermediateportion of the channel and having enlarged ends adapted to extend across the oriflces of said hollow embossments and to be intimately secured to the flrst member.
7. In a lading tie anchor for railroad house cars, the combination of the metallic structural posts of the car and the car lining provided with 5 an opening therethrough provided with a countersunk shoulder; a metallic plate provided with a recessed outer face formed to provide a, perimetrical ange-like portion adapted to seat on said countersunk shoulder and having openings 10 and a transversely disposed channel whose ends slope toward the outer forward face of the plate;
8 and a tie bar member disposed transversely of the channel and within the recess of said plate, with the ends intimately secured to said plate; and
- rearwardly projecting weldable portions adjacent No references cited.
