Definitions

  • This invention relates to a package spring group having friction control means, for use in railway car trucks of the type wherein the bolster is spring supported on the truck side frames.
  • Package type spring groups containing friction control means have appeared in the art in recent years for substitution in place of the entire group of unsnubbed bolster supporting springs in old style trucks.
  • Such package spring groups have contained various shortcomings. Some groups require bolster and side frame structural changes before they can be applied to the car trucks. In others, wherein pro-locking of the spring group is required, the use of special assembly and installation tools is necessitated. Still others require the use of non-standard bols ter springs.
  • My invention overcomes these objections through the provision of a simple, compact bolster spring group incorporating friction means capable of being easily assembled, yet requiring no changes in the car truck structure or special equipment for assembly and installation.
  • My invention contemplates a spring group wherein a friction means is utilized in parallel with the bolster springs which are disposed between spring cap and spring seat members.
  • the spring seat member presents spaced vertical friction surfaces for engagement with friction wedges retained by the spring cap member.
  • the friction wedges are urged into engagement with the friction surfaces by wedge springs which, prior to the application of the unit to a car truck, are uncompressed and extend upwardly through openings in the spring cap member.
  • the weight of the bolster and the car body compresses the wedge springs to the point where the bolster engages the top side of the spring cap.
  • the bolster provides an abutment for the upper end of these springs. Since the compression is applied to the wedge springs only upon the engagement of the bolster with the top of the spring cap member, the need for a prelocking device for maintaining the unit compressed prior to application to a car truck is eliminated.
  • Another object of my invention is to provide a spring package unit, capable of pre-assembly, but which can be easily assembled and installed in the field without the use of locking devices or special equipment and tools.
  • Still another object of my invention is to provide a spring package in the form of a unit wherein friction wedge springs for actuating the friction wedges of the unit are compressed a predetermined amount by means atent O 2,793,029 Patented May 21, 1957 of the associated car truck bolster when the unit is applied to a car truck.
  • An additional object of my invention is to provide a spring package unit, capable of facile pro-assembly, that can be used in any conventional car truck (in which the bolster is spring supported on the side frame) without any change being made to the car truck or its components.
  • a further object is to provide a spring package unit wherein there is a large area of contact between the friction wedges thereof and associated wear plates under all loading conditions.
  • a still further object of my invention is to devise a highly effective bolster supporting device: providing for controlled movement of the bolster in the form of a spring package unit utilizing standard A. A. R. (Association of American Railroads) bolster springs, which is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and easy to assemble and install.
  • Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View of the spring package unit embodying my invention, taken along line 1 1 of Figure 2.
  • Figure 2 is a horizontal sectional view of the unit taken along line 22 of Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a side elevational view of the spring package unit shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • Figure 4 illustrates a spring package unit applied to a railway car truck.
  • Figure 5 is a top plan View of the spring cap member of the spring package unit.
  • Figure 6 is an elevational view of the spring cap member shown in Figure 5.
  • Figure 7 is a top plan view of the spring seat member of the spring package unit.
  • Figure 8 is an end elevational view of the spring seat member shown in Figure 7.
  • my spring package unit comprises a spring cap member 10 and a spring seat member 12 between which is positioned a group of inner and outer coil springs 14 and 16, which may be standard A. A. R. bolster springs. Positioning means for these springs is afforded by spring centering lugs 18 on said cap and seat members.
  • the central spring of the group comprises an inner spring 14 only.
  • Spring cap member 10 as particularly seen in Figures 5 and 6 comprises a fiat top wall 20 for engagement with the upper ends of springs 14 and 16 and a centrally disposed depending box portion 22 which is formed by spaced side and end walls 24 and 26. Diagonal walls 28 forming continuations of end walls 26 extend downwardly and inwardly toward spring seat member 12. The middle portion of side walls 24 is made slightly convex as at 34) to accommodate center spring housing 32 on seat member 12 in telescoping relationship with box portion 22. Top wall 20, side walls 24, end walls 26 and diagonal walls 28 define a pair of wedge-receiving pockets 34 which open toward spring seat member 12. Top ribs 36 serve to reinforce the juncture of side walls 24 and top wall 29.
  • Spring seat member 12 ( Figures 7 and 8) comprises a base portion 37 on which the lower ends of springs 14 and 16 rest and a centrally disposed upwardly projecting center pring housing 32. Upstanding ribs 38 reinforce the juncture of spring housing 32 and base portion 37.
  • Spring housing 32 is substantially circular in horizontal cross-section and contains vertical ribs 40 on opposite sides thereof to which vertically extending friction wear plates 42 are secured by means of welds as at 44. The lower edges of wear plates 42 are supported by ledges 46 onrhousing 32.
  • the friction means comprises a pair of friction wedges 52 which are disposed in pockets 34, each wedge being urged into engagement with Wear plate 42 on housing 32 and with the inner side of diagonal wall 28 of spring cap member 10 by outer and inner wedge springs 54 and 56.
  • Each wedge 52 comprises a flat friction face 58 in slidable engagement with vertically disposed wear plate 42 and a vertically crowned wedge face 60 engaging the inner side of diagonal wall 28. Face 60 is crowned vertically so as to permit the wedge to rock relative to diagonal wall 28, thus assuring full surface contact between flat face 58 and Wear plate 42.
  • Springs 54 and 56 extend upwardly through openings 62 in spring cap member 10 and engage the underside of the bolster when the latter rests on the member, as may be seen in Figure 4.
  • a spring seat 64 is provided between faces 58 and 60 of the wedge for engagement with the lower end of springs 54 and 56.
  • the upper end of springs 54 and 56 engage the underside of the bolster when it is resting on the unit as previously mentioned.
  • the bolster in effect serves as the top wall of the spring cap to subject springs 54 and 56 to a predetermined initial compression, thereby urging wedges 52 into engagement with Wear plates 42 on spring seat member 12 with the force required to effectively damp the oscillations of the bolster support springs 14 and 16 as the latter compress and expand in service.
  • Face 58 of wedge 52 extends upwardly as at 66, so as to overlap the top edge of wear plate 42 under no-load conditions, as may be seen in Figure 4.
  • the length of wear plate 42 is such that wedge face 58 extends below the bottom edge of plate 42 under full-load conditions.
  • This construction prevents the formation of grooves and shoulders on the surfaces of plate 42 and Wedge 52 by distributing the wear evenly over their entire areas. Even distribution of wear is also assured by the fact that the line of force of outer and inner wedge springs 54 and 56 acts against seat 64 at a point X which is inwardly of the point of contact Y between crowned wedge face 60 and the inner surface of diagonal wall 28.
  • Figure 4 illustrates a typical application of my invention to a conventional railway car truck of the type in which no friction system had been provided for controlling the oscillations of the bolster supporting springs
  • side frame 70 comprises a compression member 72 and tension member 74 connected by a pair of spaced columns 76 and forming therebetween a bolster-receiving opening 78.
  • the lower ends of columns 76 are spaced apart a greater amount than the upper portions thereof to form a widened lower opening 78a of bolster receiving opening 78.
  • Bolster 80 extends into opening 78 and rests on the spring package unit which is supported on spring seat portion 82 of tension member 74.
  • a spring plank 86 is interposed between the spring group unit and the spring seat portion 82 of member 74.
  • the bolster is provided adjacent both columns with outer guide lugs 84, which overlap the portions of columns 76 that are disposed above widened opening 78a, the lugs being of such vertical height as to pass through opening 78a to permit the bolster to be withdrawn from the frame.
  • the bolster is slidably interlocked with the side frame in the usual manner by means of guide lugs 84. While only one side frame with its associated bolster end is shown, it will be understood that the other side of the truck has a similar side frame associated with the bolster in like manner. It is to be noted that no change in the car truck has been required in order to apply the spring package unit.
  • a feature of my invention resides in the provision of openings 62 in the top wall 20 of the spring cap member through which wedge springs 54 and 56 extend a predetermined amount above the top surface of the member when the springs are in free or uncompressed condition ( Figures 1 and 3).
  • Springs 54 and 56 are therefore placed under predetermined compression by the bolster when the latter is supported on the spring group, as in Figure 4. It is to be understood that while the weight of the bolster alone may not be sufficient to compress wedge springs 54 and 56 to the extent that the bolster engages the top surface of spring cap member 16, when the car body rests on the bolster, there is more than enough weight to bring the bolster into contact with member 10 and in addition to compress bolster springs 14 and 16 a slight amount.
  • Another feature of the invention is the provision of a construction which utilizes a center spring 14 in housing 32 of the spring seat member.
  • This spring alone has sufficient capacity to overcome the frictional forces generated by wedges 52 against wear plates 42. This action avoids the formation of undesirable bending stresses at the juncture of top wall 20 and side walls 24 of spring cap member 10 and at the juncture of base portion 37 and housing 32 of the spring seat member 12.
  • top wall 20 and base portion 37 are in the form of flat plates without the need of any upstanding peripheral flanges to stiffen the members. Also the use of the center spring serves to increase the capacity of the unit.
  • bolster springs 14 and 16 are placed in their respective positions on spring seat member 12. Friction wedges 52 are then placed in pockets 34. Next, with Wedges 52 manually held in place in pocket 34, spring cap member 10 is positioned over spring seat member 12 and then lowered to its final position wherein spring cap member 10 rests on bolster springs 14 and 16 and the wedges are in contact with wear plates 42 on housing 32 of the spring seat member. The assembly is completed by the insertion of wedge springs 54 and 56 through openings 62 in spring cap member 10 onto spring seats 64 of wedges 52.
  • the bolster In applying the assembled spring package unit to a car truck, the bolster is first raised to its highest position in bolster-receiving opening 78 (Fig. 4) of the side frame. Next, the unit is placed on seat 82 (or on spring plank 86, if used) in opening 78 and the bolster is lowered into engagement with the spring cap 10 of the unit, wedge springs being thereby compressed a predet'ermined amount, as illustrated in Fig. 4. It will be iiriderstood that the assembled unit is of such a height that with the bolster raised to its uppermost position in opening 78 the unit may be readily applied to the side frame, even though wedge springs 54 and 56 in their uncompressed condition extend above spring cap member 10.
