ROADWAY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 619,592, dated February 14, 189e. Application iiled October 21I 1898. Serial No. 694,170. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN WHITEHOUSE MALTBY, of (States,A in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Roadways, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of my invention is to provide a foundation for roadways, sidewalks, crosswalks, or bicycle paths constructed of asphalt orlike material or blocks, which foundation may be readily and economically laid and so constructed that the material provided for the foundation will be effectually held in place and prevented from crumbling, sinking, or disarrangement to any appreciable extent.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be hadto the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a plan view of a portion of a road, illustrating the utilization of the improvement in the construction of said road. Fig. 2 is a transverse sect-ion taken practically on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section through one portion of the foundation of the road.
In the construction of the road-bed a number of receivers A are employed, and each receiver usually consists of sides 10 and a bottom 11, the sides being provided with inwardly-extending flanges 12. The sides of the receiver are strengthened by bolts 13 and 14, the said bolts serving to hold the sides of the receiver firmly in position. These bolts are arranged in pairs, the bolts of a pair extending from opposite sides of the receiver passing one another, and the inner ends of the bolts are carried downward and secured to the bottom portion of the receiver in any suitable or approved manner.
The receivers are supported upon beams or sleepers 15, that are located transversely of 'the road-bed, and these beams or sleepers are preferably constructed of Wood. In the construction of a roadway any desired number of receivers A may be employed, one receiver being usually located at the crown of the road-bed extending longitudinally thereof, the other receivers being at each side of said crown or central receiver, and the upper portions of the receivers employed are shaped to conform to the desired curvature of the road-bed.
Each receiver is preferably located upon a bed-plate B, and said bed-plates consist of metal plates 16, bolted or otherwise secured to the sleepers 15, said bed-plates-being provided with upwardly-extending members 17, between which the receivers A are snugly litted.
In constructing the road-bed metal plates 18 are located between the receivers, fitting snugly thereto, so that the road-bed or roadway may be made in sections, and the sections of the road-bed or roadway are completed by introducing asphalt, concrete, or suitable material into the receivers A and between the receivers, as shown at 19 and 20 in Fig. 1, or a suitable plastic foundation may be laid in said receivers, in which blocks of granite or other material may be introduced, if preferred. I wish it to be understood that the receivers may be of any desired width and that receivers of different widths may be employed in the construction of a road-bed, as shown in Fig. 1.
In Fig. 3 I have illustrated a slight modiiication in the construction of a receiver, in which the bottom of thev receiver consists of a plank 2l, of suitable thickness, to which side pieces 22 are secured by screws or the like, said side pieces being provided with inwardly-extending flanges 23.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. In the construction of sidewalks, roadways, bicycle-paths and the like, a receiver for concrete or similar material or blocks, said receiver consisting of a base, sides eX- tending upwardly from the base, flanges eX- tending inwardly from the upper edges of said sides, and brace-bolts attached to the sides, which brace-bolts are arranged in pairs, the pairs of brace-bolts extending one beyond the other, their inner ends being carried down:a
IOO
ward and secured to the bottom of said re-V ceiver, for the purpose specified.
2. In the construction of roadways, bicyclepaths and the like, the combination, with a sleeper and a bed-plate secured to said sleeper, having projections extending upwardly from its upper face at intervals apart, of a receiver consisting of a bottom section fitted between the projections of the said bedplate, sides extending upwardly from the said bottom, flanges extending inwardly from the upper edges of the said sides, and tie-bolts secured to the sides of the receiver, the tiebolts being arranged in pairs adapted to pass one another, the inner ends of the tie-bolts being carried downward and connected with the bottom portion of the receiver, as described.
3. In a roadway, the combination of a series of bed-plates having upwardlyextending members, receivers fitted between said members and each comprising a bottom section with anges projecting upwardly from the edges thereof, plates extending transversely between the receivers, and paving blocks held in and between the receivers.
Il. In a roadway, the combination of a series of bed-plates having upwardly-extendin g members, receivers fitted between said mem= bers and each comprising a bottom section with flanges projecting upwardly from the edges thereof, and paving-'blocks held in and between the receivers.
