NITED STATES i PATENT OFFICE.
FRIEDERIOH WILHELM WEBER, OF HAMBURG, GERMANY.
RAIL-JOINTn EPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 548,238, dated October 22, 1895.
Application filed February 21, 1895. gerial No. 539,215- (N'o model.)
To all whom it may concern/.-
Be it known that I, FRIEDERIOH WILHELM WEBER, a citizen of Germany, and aresident of Hamburg, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rail-Joints, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a rail-joint of peculiar construction and in. which the fishplates embrace the rail-foot to prevent a vertical as well as a horizontal displacement.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a rail-joint embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a cross-section on line A B G D, Fig. 1; Fig. 3 a bottom view of Fig. 1.
The letters a I) represent a pair of fish-plates adapted to be clasped against the web Z of a rail by bolts m beneath the head f, as usual. At their lower ends the fish-plates are so formed that they embrace the rail-foot g. To this effect each plate is first bent outwardly and then inwardly to form a groove adapted to receive one half of the rail foot. The free ends of the fish-plates are bent downward in a line that coincides with the axis of the rail to form a pair of interlocking flanges. h it. Of these the flange his provided with notches 2', while the flange k is provided with noses adapted to engage said notches.
To form the joint the fish-plates are placed in position against the rail, so that their lower ends interlock and then the plates are locked to the rail by the bolts m.
What I claim is- A rail joint composed of a pair of fish plates, a, I), having inwardly and downwardly bent lower ends to form a pair of vertical flanges h, It, the flange h, being provided with notches, and the flange is being provided with a series of depending curved noses that are adapted to be projected through said notches, substantially as specified.
Signed at Hamburg, Germany, this 1st day of February, A. D. 1895.
