LEANDER EDMUND \VHIPPLE, OF 'NEXV YORK, N. Yf
FASTENiNG FOR RAlLROAD-RAILS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 511,226, dated December 19, 1893.
Application filed March 17,1393. Serial No. 46 6,479. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that l, LEANDER EDMUND WHIPPLE, of New York, county of New York, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fastenings for Railroadditails, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved de vice for securing railway rails to the supporting ties, and it is designed more particularly for use in connection with a metallic tiesuch for instance as is represented in my application of even date herewith,Serial No. 466,480.
The invention consists in various improvements in devices of this character as more fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the claims.
The invention also consists in the details of construction and combination of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1, represents a perspective view of the tie provided with my improved rail fastening device. Fig. 2, is a longitudinal vertical section on the line a-a. Fig. 3,isa transverse section on the line bb of Fig. 1. Fig. 4, is a view of a modified form of the rail clamping plate.
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents a railroad tie which in the present case consists of the base plate, top plate, and two intermediate plates secured at their edges respectively to the base and top plates.
2 represents a plate which is seated upon the upper face of the tie, and having its ends bent downward and inward to embrace the opposite sides of the tie to which it is suitably secured by rivets or other appropriate fastening devices.
3 represents the rail seated upon the plate 2.
4 represents two clamping plates, which are secured at opposite sides of the rails upon the plate 2, by means of rivets, their adjacent ends being bent upward as shown, to rest upon the foot of the rail. At opposite sides, the plate 2 is provided with flanges 5, which are bent upon the clamping plates, so that in the event of the fastening. rivets be coming loose, the clamping plates will be prevented by the flanges from moving out of place, andthe rail will be securely retained in position.
In Fig. 4: I have represented'a modified form of the rail clamping plate. In this figure it is seen that the ends of this plate are bent downward and inward against the downwardly bent ends of the plate 2, being secured in position by vertical bolts 6, extending through the edges of the tie as shown.
In order that the distance between the rails may be varied without the necessity of removing the plate 2, or of forming additional I holes in said plate to accommodate the bolts employed for securing the clamping plates thereto, I locate the holes in the clamping plates at dilferent distances from the upwardly extending edges of the same, so that by interchanging these clamping plates, the rail will be held thereby at different points on the plate 2.
Having thus described my invention, what- I claim is 1. In a rail fastening device, the combination of the plate adapted to be seated and secured upon thetie and provided with the flange, and the clamping plates secured upon the first named plate beneath the flange with their edges in position to engage the foot of the rail, substantially as described.
2. In a rail fastening device for a tie comprising a top plate and inwardly curved side plates, the clamping plates adapted to engage the foot of the rail and having their ends bent downward and inward againstthe sides of the curved plates, and fastening bolts extending through the said clamping plates, and the edges of the tie embraced thereby, substantially as described.
3. In a rail fastening device the clamping plates adapted to be secured upon the tie in position to engage the foot of the rail at opposite sides, to prevent lateral movement of the same and provided with fastening devices for securing the same to the tie, said fastoning devices located at dififerent distances from the points of engagement of the plate with the rail; whereby the distance between the rails may be varied by interchanging the plates, substantially as described.
4. The combination with the tie, the plate seated and secured thereon and provided with bolt holes, the two clamping plates provided In testimony whereof I hereunto set my with upwardly bent lips to overlie the fool: of hand, this 21st day of Februariy,v1893, in the bherail and with bolt holes located at difierent presence of two attesting witnesses.
- distances from the junction of the lips with LEANDER EDMUND WHIPPLE. 5 the plates; whereby the distance between the Witnesses:
rails may be varied by interchanging the GEORGE GASTLIN,
clamping plates, substantially as described, I G. AJDUGAN.
