Y t SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 656,470, dated August 21, 1900.
i i Application filed March 2'6 190i). Serial ll0.10,`134. (No model.) i
To @ZZ whom t misgaan/cern: y
Be it known that I, JOHN L. POPE, of land, in the countyof Cuyahoga andrState of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Devices' for Preventing Creeping of Rails, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specication, in which-A Figure l shows in plan view a railway-rail provided with my improved device for preventing longitudinal motion or creeping of the rail. Fig. 2 is a vertical section on the line II II of Fig. l. Fig. 3 is 'a plan view of the rail-holding device. Fig. 4 is a plan view of a modified construction. t
The purpose of my invention is toprovide means by which railway-rails can be held secure against longitudinal motion or creeping.
In Fig. l, 2 represents therail, 3 3 are ties,
, and 4 is a bar which -is fixed toa suitable viiange.
number of the ties, preferably by spikes 5 5. t
To restrain the rail from longitudinal motion,I employ a holder 6,constituted by a crossbar set between the ties, extending under the rail, having an abutment 7,` bearing against the edge of the flange on one side, and abutments 8 8,y which bear against the other edge of the Bange, and said abutments being rigid on the holder 6 of the rail, the abutment 7 being fitted in a notch formed in the rail- At the rear end of the device is a shoulder 9 and lip 9', which are fitted to a notch lO in the bar 4. When the parts are assembled, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the rail .is eiectually prevented from creeping in in a horizontal plane in either direction, so as to cause the abutments 7 8 to clamp upon the rail, it will prevent the rail from creeping.
Within the scope of my invention as de Clevefined` in the claims many changes may be made in the form and construction of the parts, since-+7. t
What I claim is-` 1. Adeviceforpreventingcreepingofrails, comprising a crossbar extending transversely under the rail, and having rigid abutments thereon bearingagainst the opposite edges of the rail-flange and adapted to clamp the same;
substantially as described. l 2. A device for preventing creeping of rails, comprising a holder extending under the rail and bearing against the opposite edges of the rail-dange, said holder being set between the ties and having a connection extending laterally therefrom to a tie; substantially as described.
3. A device for preventing creeping of rails comprising a holder connected with the rail between the ties, a bar or shank which is fixed `to the tie, and a connection between theholder andthe bar; substantially as described.
4. A device for preventing creeping of rails comprising a holder connected with the rail between the ties, a bar or shank which is ixed to the tie, anda connection between the holder and the bar, said connection being constituted by a shoulder on the holder fitting a notch on the bar; substantially as described.
5. A device for preventing creeping of rails, comprising a holder extending under the rail and having two rigid abutments against the flange at one side of the rail, and a rigid abutment against the flange at the other side of the rail; substantially as described.
6. A device for preventing creeping of rails, comprising a cross-bar extending transversely Vunder the rail,l and havinglrigid abutments thereon bearing against the opposite edges of v JOHN In VPOPE;f .t
