M ETALLIC CAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 421,653, dated February 18, 1890.
Application filed July 16, 1889- To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, DAVID L. BARNES, of Chicago, Cook county, State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Metallic Car Construction, of which the following is a full, true, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to an improvement to in metallic car construction, and is designed as a modification and in part as an improvement of the application filed by me on the Qthday of April, 1889, Serial No. 306,557.
My invention will be readily understood :5 from the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 represents a longitudinal vertical elevation; Fig. 2, a longitudinal vertical section through one end of the car, showing the structure of the body-bolster; Fig. 3, a vertical cross-section through the body-bolster; Fig. 4, a longitudinal vertical cross-section through the end of the car, showing 'the method of supportingthe carlings from the end posts; Fig. 5, a view of the structure 2 5 shown in Fig. 4 from the inside, in part in section; and Fig. 6, a plan View of Fig. 4 With the part 13 broken away and showing the lower part of the part B and the side of the car in section.
The general structure of my car may be of any desired form, though I prefer that for which I have made application as above named, and the invention herein is particularly designed to improve the method of con- 5 necting the end posts and carlings and the construction of the body-bolster.
A represents generally the corrugated me tallic side of the car, which may be lined with Wood F, as indicated. The corrugated roof C is designed to be suported by carlings D, fitting said corrugations and which are generally of inverted-U shape in section. They are at- Serial No. 317,739. (No model.)
tached to the bent posts G by connectors E, which are of bent metal riveted by rivets H, as shown. They are bentso as to fitwithin the inside of the U-shaped post, and the upper end projecting within the carling D should be slightly flattened in order to provide for the riveting there. "A water-shed B is provided, fitting beneath the roof C and passing outside of the corrugated sheathingA, as shown. The body-bolster is combined with the center sills and intermediate sills, as shown in Fig. 3. The bolster itself K is formed of pressed steel, as described in my previous application, and forms a truss with the upper'member L. The sills themselves are formed of plates M and angle-irons N, bolted thereto and to the parts of the body-bolster, and the side sills are braced to the body-bolster by struts 0. 6o
W'hatI claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination, in metallic car construction, of the U-shaped posts, the U- shaped carlings, and the U-shaped connectjug-pieces E, fitting within the posts and attached thereto and to the carlings, substantially as described.
2. The body-bolster herein shown, consist- :ing of the combination of the parts K and L, the plates M, and separate angle-irons N, attached to the plates and to the parts K L, substantially as described.
3. The combination, with the side sills of the car, of the metallic truss body-bolster K L and connectingstruts O, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specificationin the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
DAVID L. BARNES.
