CHESTER BULLOCK, OF NElV YORK, N. Y.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 310,558, dated January 13,1885.
Application filed September 11, 1884.
T0 at whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, OHEs'rER BULLocK, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new and useful cable or electric railway yoke or frame, with tile to form and sustain the tube or conduit, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements for yoke or frame, being constructed of cast-iron for base or bottom, with wrought-iron or steel for the top, and riveted and bolted together in a manner to sustain great weight, with tile to form and sustain the sides or bottom and sides of the tube or conduit for cable or electic railways, in which the pulleys or sheaves are placed that carry the endless chain or rope, or in which the wire or electric rail is placed that propels the cars, thus forming a tube or conduit for cable or electric railways. I attain this object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is an end view of the tube or conduit with yoke or frame and tile in place, rep resented as below the surface of the street. Fig. 2 is an end view of a section of the tile that covers one half of the bottom and one side of the tube or conduit. Fig. 3 is a view of onehalf of the yoke or frame, showing one half ofthe cast iron base or bottom, with wroughtiron or steel posts, braces, and plates as riveted and bolted together. 'Fig. at is a view of a longitudinal section ofthe inside of the tube or conduit, showing thetilc in place between the yokes or frames.
Similarletters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
Base or bottom F of the yoke or frame is made of cast-iron. Posts G and plate E are made from angle wrought-iron or steel. Posts G and C are riveted or bolted firmly at the top to plate 13; also are bolted or riveted firm- 1y at the bottom to cast-iron base or bottom F. Brace 1) extends on an incline from slotrail H to post 0, passing over and is riveted or bolted to the upper end of post G, and
also is riveted or bolted to plate E and to post 0. The upper end of brace D is turned an angle, with holes or slots to fit holes or slots in slot-rail H, and bolted to it by bolts T; also, the lower flange of slot-rail H is bolted to plate ll. Wrought-iron bars B B extend through from one yoke or frame to the other,
(No model.)
one on the top of. the yoke or frame, and the other near the center, and bolted to the post for the purpose of sustaining or keeping tile A in place when the earth of the street is put in place. Tile A, as represented in Fig. 1, is an end view of the tile in place and resting against wrought-iron bars B B, while Fig. l represents the inside view of the tile A supported by bars B B. The tile can be made in one or more pieces for each side and bottom of the tube or conduit; but experience has taught us that made in sections of about three on each side, as represented in Fig. 2, and about one foot wide, as represented in Fig. 4, is the best and cheapest, as the clay can be thoroughly vitrified and burned in blocks of this size.
U represents the timber that extends along the track and outside of slot-rail H, and covers the tube or conduit from slot-rail to upper end of tile A.
K is a plank that is spiked on the timber U, to be replaced when worn.
L represents paving-blocks.
0 represents timbers extending from yoke or frame to yoke or frame the length of the road, on which rail R is spiked or fastened.
T represents a corner-brace bolted to plate 1*], to hold timber O in place, being spiked to it.
\Vhat I. claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The wroughtiron or steel posts secured at the top to wrought-iron or steel plate, with brace extending from post 0 across post (land plate E to slot-rail, in combination with east iron base or bottom, to form a yoke or frame for tube or conduit for cable or electric railways, as described, and for the purpose set forth.
2. The bars B, that extend from one yoke or frame to another yoke or frame when they are in. place, in combination with tile forming andlining the bottom and sides, or either, of a tube or conduit for cable or electric railway, as shown, and for the purpose set forth.
3. The tile in combination with a yoke or frame in forming a tube or conduit for cable or electric railway, as described, and for the purpose set forth.
CHESTER BULLOCK.
