FRANCIS P. REILLY, OF NEW'YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGN MENTS, TO THE JOHNSON COMPANY, OF PENNSYLVANIA.
C OMB INED RAIL-SUPPORT AND CROSS-TIE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 508,049, dated November 7, 1893.
' Application filed October '7, 1892. Serial No. 448,105. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern/.-
Be it known that I, FRANCIS P. REILLY, of
v the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Combined Rail- Support and Cross-Tie, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is suficiently stated in the title.
The invention consists of a combined rail support and cross-tie as hereinafter described and claimed.
In theaccompanying drawingsFigure 1 shows in cross section a cross tie in 'side elevation, formed with chairs integral therewith, and railroad rails in cross-section secured to said chairs. Fig. 2shows thevcross-tie in side elevation and the chairs separate from the cross-tie. tie and chairs in Fig. 1, showing them diiferently secured together. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the cross-tie before the chairs are secured thereto. 2
In carrying out this invention a metal crosstie 1 is provided, preferably of the channel form shown and formed by rolling or otherwise. Adjacent to the ends of the cross-tie 1, lugs or projections 2 are stamped up there on to which areto be secured in any suitable manner chairs of a box or channel form.
3 indicates box shaped chairs formed with the side attachment or brace 4. In Fig. 1, the chairs 3 'are secured to the lugs 2 by welding, the vertical portions 5 of the chairs being abutted against the lugs 2 and welded together in any suitable manner. 6 indicates railroad rails, shown as side hearing girder rails, but which may be of any form desired The rails 6 resting on the chairs 3 are secured thereto by the side attachment or brace 4 and any suitable attachment or fastening, such as the Marshall clip 7..
In lieu of the chair and attachment shown and described, any other form of chair and attachment may be employed, and in the case Fig. 3 is a modification of the crosschairs 3 instead of being Welded to the lugs 2 are secured thereto by rivets 9 or otherwise suitably fastened, the lower ends of the vertical portions 5 of the chairs overlapping the lugs 2 and resting on the cross-tie 1.
By means of this invention,cross-ties with rail supports forming a unitary structure are provided and ready to be shipped and laid in track.
Having described my invention, I claim-- 1. A metallic cross tie provided with vertical stamped up lugs, and having a rail chair of box form fastened thereto, the vertical webs of the chair being secured to the vertical lugs of the tie.
2. A railroad metallic cross tie provided with a vertical stamped up lug near each end with a rail chair having a vertical web, said chair being secured to said stamped up vertical lug on said cross tie.
3. A railroad metallic cross tie provided with stamped up lugs, and having rail chairs welded to said lugs.
4. Achannel shapedmetallic cross tie provided with stamped up lugs, and having a rail chair of box form welded to said lugs.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my sig- 1 nature in presence of two witnesses.
FRANCIS P. REILLY.
