16 Claims. (Cl. 10S- 369) My invention relates more particularly to means or anchors and method of securement whereby the lading in railroad house cars can be easily secured to the car walls and held against shifting during transit without resort to the use of cleats or similar devices which must be nailed to the car walls and then removed when the .1.1
the body of the anchor being formed with substantially f :dat-sided ends to effect abutting relation with the straight cut ends of the car lining boards at opposite sides or ends, while affording rear support or backing up portions for the cut lining board ends.
My improved anchor is especially adapted for use with a structural car post of channel form in cross-section and provided with laterally -disposed flanges on the channel sides having one or more interrupted sections to permit the anchors to be threaded or slipped onto the channel anges and elect interlocking engagement with the channel post before application of the car lining; the anchor resting firmly on both anged sides of the channel post and the usual nailing wood insert or furring strip of the car post.
The objects and advantages of the invention will all be readily comprehended from the detailed description ej the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure l shows a portion of a car outer wall; a portion of my improved structural post and portion of a car inner lining and bottom or door board lining, with one of my improved anchors applied; all of the elements being in perspective.
Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Figure l.
Figure 3 is a front elevational view of the anchor applied to metal structural posts, of which a portion and a portion of the car lining are shown.
Figure 4 is a vertical section taken on the line 49-,4 of Figure 3, as viewed by the arrows.
My invention relates to a particular type of lading tie anchor and a specially constructed structural metal car post with which the anchor effects interengaging relation whereby the anchor is secured in place and all pulling strains encountered by the anchor are directly transmitted to the metal car post without applying the strains to the less sturdy car inner lining boards or members.
The invention also contemplates a structure wherein the lading tie strap or wire-holding anchors may be adjustably applied to the structural car post at any horizontal elevational position between the car roof and oor in keeping with the desires of the user; with the anchors removably secured to the car post to permit a reposition- 2,716,383 Patented Aug. 30, 1955 lCC ing of the anchors especially in the event of relining of the car interior. l
In the particular exemplication of the invention, which is especially adapted to a car post having oppositely disposed at surfaces or ange-like portions arranged adjacent the *car inner lining, for example, to a structural car post of channel cross-section, with the anchor per se shown of rectangular form, having comparatively straight sides so as to eliminate thel necessity for special mill work on the lining boards and thus permit the latter to be cut to length with an ordinary wood saw during application of the anchors and the car lining.
As previously stated, myinvention relates to a preformed structural metal post preferably of channel form in`c`ross-section with the open side of the channel pre sented inwardly toward the car interior as shown at 20; and the sides of the channel post 20 which, of course, extends from the roof to the car bottom, are provided with laterally disposed anges 21, 21. The flanges 21, 21, preferably intermediate the upper and lower ends of the post,f are provided with one or more diametrically opn posite cut-outs as shown at 22 yin Figure l, in order to permit the subsequent threading on or application or' my improved anchor shown at 23; the cut-outs preferably being arranged midway between the upper and lower ends of the post.
The channel post 20 is shown provided with the usual wood filler or furring strip 24, to which the inner boards or lining element 25 are nailed or secured.
The anchor 23 preferably consists of a metal or steel casting of rectangular form with substantially at-faced ends 26 against which the cut ends of the lining boards abut; while one of the longitudinal sides, in the present instance, the top--is provided with a longitudinal tongue 27, see Figures 1 and 4, which matches the groove in the superposed lining board, which latter are usually of the tongue-and-groove type; and the bottom edge of the anchor is longitudinally cut away from the rear as shown more clearly in Figure 4 to provide the rib as at 28 to overlap the tongue on the subjacent board, which in the exemplitication isshown as a bottom or oor board 29 of the car side wall. My improved anchor preferably is made of the same width as the lining boards thus necessitating but a single lining board to be cut, whose ends will be backed-up by the anchor.
It will be understood that the rear face of the anchor extends ilush with and rests against the iianges 21, 2i of the channel post; and the anchor 23 is of such thicli ness that its forward outer face will extend flush with the car lining as shown in Figure 2,
The forward face of the casting is provided with a dished cavity with outwardly sloping side walls and of depth centrally to extend rearward of the intermediate integral tie-holding bar portion 30, with outlets 31, 31 from the .cavity at opposite sides of the tie bar 30 and above and below the bar 30 as at 32, 32, in the exempliiication, thus adapting the anchor to both lateral and vertical tie conditions, especially the anchor which is disposed on the lower or bottom side lining board 29 as shown in Figure l;
The longitudinal sides or ends of the anchor at the rear areprovided with reversely extending portions or bars 33, 33, of prearranged length and width with preferably at ,forward faces to match the at faces of the structural post anges 21, 21, and slightly spaced fromvthe rear wall` of the anchor to accommodate the post flanges 21, 21.
The bars 33, 33 preferably are provided with reenforcing ribs as at 34 and the bars made to extend slightly beyond the end walls of the anchor to provide lining board p back-up surfaces 35, 35, see Figure 2.
The anchor 23 is of length somewhat greater than the width of the structural post and its flanges, see Figure 2; with the distance between the inner ends of the portions or bars 33, 33 less than the distance between the outer longitudinal edges ofthe post anges. 21,. 21in.v order than the anges 2l, 21 may be suciently overlapped by the bars 33, 33, as. shown. in. Figure. 2;A the. distance. between the innertips of the. portions. or bars 33,. 33, beinggslightlygreater than the distance: between the outer edgesof the matching cut-outsZZ, 2?.,.inthestructural post` flanges.
This enables the anchors to; be edgewisely threaded on?" posed anges of the structuralv post and arranged on the longitudinal edge of the snbiacent lining board with a superposed lining board extending across the anchor, the
latter will be held against vertical shifting movement.
My improved anchor and method of attachment obviates the use of bolts, screws andV rivets, thus greatly re.-
ducing the expense in time and labor in installation; obviating any fastening means that extend. into the car lining andv consequently eliminating the undesirable splitting or maceration of the lining boards as heretofore has been.
the case with certain types of anchors; and, ofcourse, without subjecting the lining boards to the pulling strains of shifting lading during transit as-has been they case with anchoring means as heretofore proposed.
At the same time, my improved anchor means eliminates the necessity for cuttingV all of the lining; boards re.- gardless of the anchor location, as is the case in ai method proposed whereby a multiple of lining board ends-result;`
a most undesirable construction, which aside. from a plu.- rality of unfastened loose lining board ends also requires the use. of additionalfwood posts or furring; strips during:
car construction to permit lining board endnailingentailing expensive time and labor.
