Description
W Illness W /Vyw wweeeerw- AARON VAN GUYSLING, OF WEST ALBANY, NEW YORK.
Letters Patent No. 84,023, dated November 10, 1868.
IMPROVED RAILWAY-CHAIR AND SUPPORT.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AARON VAN GUrsLlNe, of West Albany, in the 4countybf Albany, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Railroad-Chairs and Supports; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and 'exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled inthe ar to make and use the same, reference being had'to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of-tliis specification."
Figure 1 is a top view of a portion of a railroad-track to which my improvements have been attached.
Figure 2 is a vertical cross-section oi' the same, taken through the line x x, fig. 1. p
Figure 3 is a vertical cross-section of the same, .taken through the line y y, iig. l.
Figure is a detail sectional View of the same, taken through the line z z, tig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention has for its objectto improve the con- Vstruction of railroad-chairs and their supports, so tol furnish a substantial, reliable, and elastic support for the mils, which will hold said rails securely in place, and, at the same time, prevent the jar, now so universally experienced-in railroad-riding; and it consists in the construction of the various parts of the chairs and their supports as lhereinafter more fully described.
A- are the supports, which are made in the form of hollow ironcolumns, closed at the upper or at both ends, and which are securely set in the ground in a vertical position.
If desired, the hollow supports A may be made short, with their lower ends attached to or formed solid with a, hollow metallic bar or tie,'B, which rests upon or is embedded in the ground, as shown in fig. 3.
C are the chairs,` which are made in the form of metallic caps, fitting and resting upon the upper ends of the supports A. j
c' are lips, formed solidly upon the upper side ofthe chairs C, and which overlap the edge of the base-flange upon one side of the rails.,
c2 is a detachable lip, secured to the upper side of the chairs G by key-bolts D, as shown in the drawings, or by other convenient and substantial lmeans.
The opposite chairs are connected to each other by fan iron bar or tie, E, as a guard against the possibility ofthe rails spreading.
In 'the opposite sides ofthe chairs O, just below the p solid top of said chairs, are formed slots, through whi are passed wooden blocks, F, which are thus intel-pos between the solid tops of the chairs C, and the so tops of the supports A, to form an elastic support: the weight of the passing train.
fG are rubber blocksfwhich may be placed betwe the wooden blocks Fand the tops of the supports to give further elasticity to the chairs.r l
By this construction, by removing the voodenf.blo l, the rubber block G may be removed and re'plzu through the hole or holes in the side or sides of chairs C, without removing ythe chairs C from the s ports A, or disturbing the rails.
If desired, the rubber blocks G may be used with the wooden blocks F, but in this case the hole or h1 through the side or sides of the chairs C', through wl the said rubber blocks are inserted and removed, sh( be closed with a slide, H, or other convenient dev as shown in iig. 4. Y
It should be observed that the supports A may desired, be replaced with wooden or stone supports, I prefer the constrnctionot` said supports first descri` as being more substantial and satisfactory iu use".
Having vthus described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by tels Patent, is-
l.. The railroad-chair support, consisting of.' the low supports A, connected bythe tube Bthe cha having the fixed lip c and the detachable lip ci key-bolt D, the rubber block G, the wooden bloc and the connecting-bar E, said chairs being sloth receive the bent ends of the connecting-bar, and fo passage of the wooden blocks, all arranged as desci for the purpose specified.
2. The chair C, fitting over the hollow supperl and constructed as described, having the ,iixed l detachable lip c2, and the key-bolt D, and provled an opening in its side for the introduction of the ri block G, which is kept in place by the slidingdm as herein set foi4 h, for the purposespecilied.
3. .The combination of the horizontal metallici tie, B, with the vertical hollow suppoits A, sul tially as herein shown and described, and for thi pose set forth.
