'DEAD-RAIL. STAND FOR TRACK-SCALES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 662,245, dated November 20, 1900.
Application filed May 29, 1900. Serial No. 18,390. (No model.)
T @ZZ wwwt it may concern.-
Beit known thatI, JOHN A. RIsHEL,of Munhall, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Dead-Rail Stands for Track-Scales, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure lis a vertical section showing the rail arrangement and foundation of a trackscale, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view of my improved dead-rail stand therefor.
My invention relates to the supporting of the dead-rail of a track-scale, and is designed to provide an improved support which shall be simple and easily made and which will withstand the heavy side strains and compressive strains to which said support is sub# jected.
In the drawings, 2 represents the dead-rail, and 8 my improved support. This support consists of a casting of general triangular form having a web portion 3 and continuous flanges #i extending laterally therefrom and continuously surrounding its web portion. The casting is formed with a recess 5 to receive the base of the rail, which is held thereto by bolts extending through holes 6, cored out in the casting on each side of the central web. The base portions of the ianges 4 upon each side of the web are also cored out, forming holes 7 to receive bolts by which the support is secured to the I-beams 8 of the foundation.
The advantages of my invention result from the peculiar support, which is formed in one integral piece of cast-steel, thus giving great strength and resistance and enabling it to b e cheaply made.
I claim- A dead-rail su pport consisting of a steel casting of general triangular form having one side of the triangle provided with a projecting foot portion, said support having a web body portion extending through the foot, and being provided with opposite flanges extending entirely around the body and foot, said ianges having holes at the top and base to secure it to the foundation and to fasten the rail to the support; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
JOHN A. RISHEL.
