Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 27, 1906.
Application filed January 13, 1906. Serial No. 295.879.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ELIZABETH J. BURR, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mounds, State of Utah, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tie- Plates; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of 'the invention, such-as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to railroads, andmore particularly to tie-plates, and has for I its object to provide a tie-plate which will perspective view showing the. under side of the plate. Fig. 3 is a etail section on line 3 3 of Fig. 1, taken transversely of the railengaging rib. Fig. 4 is a to plan view of the plate used at rail-joint-s. ig. 5 is a section taken on line 5 5 of Fig: 1, the plate being shown upon a tie and with a rail in position thereupon.
Referring now to the drawings, shown in Fig. 1 a plate 5 adapted fondisposal upon a tie and having depending flanges 6 attwo op osite edges which are arranged to extend ownwardly o er the sides ofa tie.-
These flanges are at what may be termed the endsof the plate. Adjacent to one side edge the plate 5 is rovided with two spikeo enings 7, which a l'me longitudinally of the p ate, and adjacent to the oppositcside edge the plate is provided with a spike-opening8 between its ends, and at opposite sides of this opening, at the inner portion thereof, there are longitudinally-extending rail-engaging ribs 9, which al-ine with each other and which have their inner edge faces slanted downwardly, andoutwardly for engagement of their inner portions over the base-flange of there is a rail. Upon the under face of the plate 5 there are formed a plurality of transverselyextending depending ribs 10-, which are crosssectionally triangular and which have their apices directed downwardly. These ribs 10 aline transversely in pairs, two of them lying between the o enings 7 and two of them lying at opposite si es of the opening 8.
In Fig. 4 there is shown a form of the inventionfor use III :QOHIIGOt'IOII with rails at their meetingends, and in this form two spike-openings 8 are provided in place of the single opening 8 of the first-described form. Short ribs 11 extend outwardly from the openings 8 longitudinally of the plate, and an intermediate rib 12 alines with the ribs 11 and extends between the openings 8, it being understood that these ribs 11- and 12 are .located at the inner portions of the openings 8. In use the plate 5 is disposed, upon a tie with its flanges 6 at opposite sides thereof and with its ribs 10 resting thereupon, the ribs bein in effect, barbs to prevent movement of t e plate upon the tie. A rail is then disposed .upon the plate between the 0 enings 7 and the opening 8 and withone si e. of its base-flange against and engaged beneath the inner portions of the ribs 9. Spikes are then driven into the several spike openings to hold the rail against displacement, these spikes being engaged in the tie.
At the meeting ends of two rails the plate shown in Fig. 4 is used, the rails being disposed with their ends between the airs of openings at the ends of the late, t e rails resting against the ribs 11 an 12, as will-be understood.
What is claimed is- Atie-platecomprising a plate having downwardly-turned flanges at its ends adapted for engagement at opposite sides of a tie, said plate havingtransversely-extending alining airs of tie-engaging ribs upon its under surace terminating short of the lower edges of the flanges, said plate having a spikereceiving opening formed therethrough adjacent to one side and between two of the tie-engaging ribs and having a pair of spike-receiving openings formed therethrough adjacent to its apposite side and between the tie-engaging n s and the flanges, said plete having a pair of upwardly-extending rail-engaging ribs vformed thereupon in longitudinal alinement at opposite sides of the first-named opening, said rail-engaging ribs being deflected t0- werd the remote side of the plate.
In testimony whereof I- afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
