GOMBINED WASHER AND NUT LOCK.
No. 505,454. Patented Sept. 26, 1893.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES H. FOOTE, OF KANSAS CITY, KANSAS.
COMBINED WASHER AND NUT-LOCK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 505,454, dated September 26, 1893. Application filed may 12, 1893. Serial No. 473,949- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES H. FOOTE, of Kansas City,Wyandotte county, Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Washer and Nut-Lock, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to improvements in nut-locks and the object of my invention is to provide a nut-lock which is simple, durable and inexpensive of construction and which will make it impossible for a nut to be accidentally unscrewed from a bolt when applied thereto.
With this object in View my invention consists in certain peculiar and novel features of construction and arrangement as will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
In order that my invention may be fully understood, I will proceed to describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1, is a perspective view of a portion of a railroad rail, and showing applied thereto in operative position, my improved nut-lock. Fig. 2, is a detail view of the nut-lock attachment.
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents a rail of the usual construction, and 2 represents a portion of the fish plates, arranged against opposite sides of the web 3 of said rail in the usual manner. I
4 represents a bolt which is passed through horizontally aligned openings in the fish plates, and the web of the rail. A metal wire is bent to form the openings 12 and 13, and
has its free ends 14, extending outwardly and downwardly as shown. The opening 12 is then slipped upon the projecting end of the bolt 4. in such manner that the ends of the arms 14 will bear upon the upper side of the foot portion of the rail. The nut 10 is then secured upon the bolt and the upper portion of the wire is bent so as to rest upon the adjacent edge of the nut; this arrangement being such as to prevent the rotation of the locking wire, and also to prevent the rotation of the nut on the bolt independent of said locking wire. From this description, it will be seen that I have produced a nut-lock, which is simple, strong and inexpensive of construction.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a nut-lock, a locking plate formed of wire, and having a central opening and depending legs, and an upper extension adapted to be bent upon the edge of the nut, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with the rail, the fishplate, the bolt and the nut, of alocking washer looped around the bolt, having a loop to be bent against the edge of the nut, and having its free ends bent to form divergent legs adapted to bear upon the foot-portion of the rail, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES H. FOOTE.
