- the floating mounting [51] Int Cl 4 plate is adapted for movement away from the abut- 56 g269/25 ment.
- Resilient means are provided for biasing the mounting plate against the abutment with a [58] Field of Search predetermined prestressed force which sets or determines the load at which the mounting plate will float away from the abutment. In this way, the loads are decreased and S T N m MA .IP a M e me. e m N N U N H /5 shock loads on the clamping equipment are readily endured and damage to the clamping mechanism and cars 214/55 is minimized.

- ABSTRACT There is provided an improved hydraulic clamping ap- PArEminszrzsma SHEET 2 OF 3 KARL HAD/TSCH PAliNTfnstrzslsn SHEET 3 0F 3 INVENTOR. mm. HADITSCH ATT LOAD COMPENSATED CAR BUMPER CLAMP BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART
- the present invention is concerned with clamps in general, and more particularly to clamps which are especially adapted for holding railroad cars of the gondola type in a rotary railroad car dumper during inversion to empty the contents of the car.
- Numerous types of clamps ranging from cable-operated clamps to hydraulic extensible arm-type clamps, have been used for the purpose of grasping and holding railroad cars during inversion thereof to remove the contents.
- the hydraulic extensible arm-type clamps are preferred over the cable-operated type clamps because the clamping action is more positive and is sustained during the entire cycle.
- the new clamps of the present invention are characterized by an ability to compensate for changes in the clamp force between the top of the car and the clamp as the car is rotated to an inverted position. This ability minimizes damage to the car and to the car clamps and thus reduces maintenance of these components. Since the forces are smaller, the size and cost of the clamp mechanism is also reduced.
- the improved clamping mechanisms of the present invention permit expansion of the railroad car springs during the full rotation cycle. With conventional clamps, the railroad car springs are able to expand only for the initial 75 of rotation. Even under optimum conditions, conventional railroad car clamps will relieve only 35 percent of the railroad car spring force.
- the improved devices of the present invention are capable of relieving up to 100 percent of the railroad car spring forces.
- These devices will also permit-higher speeds of clamping since they are capable of absorbing the oil flow impact when the clamp suddenly engages the top of the railroad car. These devices also act as shock absorbers when the clamp is lifted and suddenly stopped in a position intermediate of the full stroke of the hydraulic extensible arm.
- the clamps are or become locked at approximately 70 of dumper rotation. As the dumper rotates beyond the 70 position to 155 or 180 of rotation, the material in the car is discharged. However, the locked car clamp engaging the top of the car prevents railroad car spring travel and the trapped-in spring force is now pushing on the car clamp in addition to the car weight and the weight of any material which does not flow out, for example, because of being frozen. With the dumper in the fully rotated position and the car in almost. upsidedown position, the forces on the clamps on conventional dumpers equals the trapped-in car spring force which almost equals the full weight of the material in the car plus the weight of the car.
- An important object of the present invention is to reduce this locked-in car spring force and thus prevent damage to the car and to the clamp.
- Another important factor of the present mechanism is that it is capable of reducing oil fluid hammer.
- the car clamps engage the top of the car, they are traveling with a speed which is proportional to the oil flow from the hydraulic pump to the piston.
- This oil flow in a conventional hydraulic clamp is then suddenly stopped when the clamp hits the top marginal edge of the car.
- the shock pressure of the suddenly stopped oil flow is superimposed on the pump pressure which results in high peak pressure for which the cylinder and piping must be designed.
- the new car spring-relieving mechanism will absorb this fluid flow shock. Pressures in the hydraulic cylinderl'which-are greater than the preset pump pressure will cause a compression of the resilient means and cushion the impact. The cushioned impact will permit higher clamp speeds and reduce impact pressure and fluid hammer noise.
- a hydraulic clamping apparatus comprising in combination a first jaw member and a second jaw member in opposed clamping relation to eachother.
- the second jaw member is provided with an abutment.
- a hydraulically actuated extensible arm coacts between the first and second jaw members for moving them toward and away from each other.
- means are provided which include a floating mounting plate secured to the arm and constructed for seating engagement against the abutment in opposition to a load on the arm tending to separate the jaws and for movement away from the abutment when the load on the arm exceeds a predetermined value.
- Resilient means are provided for biasing the mounting plate against the abutment with a predetermined force which is determinative of the predetermined load.
- means are included for prestressing the resilient biasing means to exert the predetermined force. The extent of prestressing in a four-clamp installation is usually onefourth of the weight of the car and its cargo.

- the jaw member 40 is at its extreme extension. It is split in order to clear end ring structure 11 as shown in FIG. 3. This position of the clamping mechanism is used in order that a locomotive may pass through the rotary car dumper cradle 10 without colliding with the jaw 24.
- the lowest position shown in dotted lines is below the marginal edge of the railroad car 16 in order that clamping action may occur within the total stroke of the extensible arm 26.
- the position betweeen maximum extension shown in solid lines and the minimum extension shown in the lower dotted lines is an intermediate position to which the clamp is normally raised when only railroad cars as distinct from a locomotive are passing through the car dumper.
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary cross-sectional view on an enlarged scale

- the floating mounting plate 68 has secured to the lower surface thereof as by welding an elongated pin 72 threaded at its distal extremity 74.
- Lockable nuts 76 and 78 in combination with washer 80 provide an adjustable support for a coil spring seat 82 which is slidably fitted over the end of pin 72 by means of an oversized bore 84 centrally thereof.
- the seat 82 is conveniently provided with a projecting portion 86 suitably sized for insertion within a heavy coil spring 88.
- the underside of the abutment plate 70 is also provided with a suitably sized collar 90 dimensioned for insertion within the coil spring 88.
- the system By the mechanism of the coil spring coacting between the bottom of the abutment plate 70 and the spring seat 82 and transmitting its bias through the washer 80 and the lockable nuts 76 and 78 to the pins 72 and in turn to the floating mounting plate 68, the system is able to withstand loads up to a predetermined load without movement of the floating plate 68 and loads in excess thereof within the prestressed biasing spring by compressing it further.
- any predetermined bias between the bottom of the abutment plate 70 and the floating mounting plate 68 may be secured.
- the floating mounting plate 68 When the load on the cylinder 28 exceeds the oppositely directed load imposed by the bias of spring 88, the floating mounting plate 68 will move away from the abutment plate 70.
- the stop means include studs 92 and 94 suitably anchored to the abutment plate 70 as by means of heads 96 and 98 seated in suitable shouldered recesses 100 and 102, respectively, and welded into position as by weldment 104.

- preassembled and pretested modular units may be delivered to the field for installation in the car dumper. Ordinarily, four of such units are so utilized.
- Construction of the units in modular form greatly minimizes the cost of installation of clamps in the car dumper, saves plumbing, cuts down leakage, minimizes contamination, reduces filtration, reduces air ingestion, enables ready replacement of a malfunctioning unit, and also enables accurate setting of the units under controlled conditions rather than those which obtain in the field.
- FIG. 5 shows a hydraulic circuit employing conventional symbols for operating the hydraulic clamps of the present invention.
- a hydraulic fluid reservoir 116 having an immersion heater 118 therein.
- variable displacement pump 122 driven by motor 124 through flexible coupling 126 delivers fluid to a fourway valve 128.
- This is a solenoid-operated valve.
- solenoid A When solenoid A is operated, the spool 130 is moved into position to allow communication between the line 132 and the flow control valve assembly generallyindicated at 134. Fluid under pressure then flows through the swivel joint 136 through flexible hose portion 138 and swivel joint 140 into the cylinder 28 to drive extensible arm 26 in an upward direction.
- fluid flows out of the upper portion of cylinder 28 through swivel joint 142, flexible line 144, and swivel joint 146 through flow control unit 148 and by-passing check valve 150 through drain line 152 for return to the reservoir through return line 154.

- the clamp may be stopped at an intermediate position by means of a limit switch and striker assembly, e.g., limit switch 156 and striker 158, operative to stop the pump 122 and a check valve, e.g. valve or 151, to hold the clamp at such position.
- a limit switch and striker assembly e.g., limit switch 156 and striker 158
- a check valve e.g. valve or 151
- a pressure-sensitive switch 147 In order to make sure that there is pressure on the system during the dumping operation, there is provided a pressure-sensitive switch 147. If no pressure is registered on this switch, it automatically turns off and stops further action of the dumping. When the pressure is sufficient to hold the car, the switch is maintained closed and permits continuation of the dumping cycle.
