CARLINE Fon FiAlLwrnr-ouas.Y
No. 845,9c1.-

'maximums 5.1907.
Appuuon .nea Decana 8,1905. sewnazaan Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in lCarlinesefor Railway- Cars, of which the following isa full, clear, and exact description', reference being had to g drawings, forming part of this spec' catlon, in which Figure 1 is a side 'elevation showingvmy improved carline in osition. Fig. 2 is a bot-v tom plan view; an Fi s. 3 and 4 are crosssections on 'the lines II III andIV IV, respectively, of'Fig. 1.
My invention relates to metal carlines for railway-cars, and is designed to provide an improved'formof carline which will avoidcuttingthrough of the car side to receive the end of the carline. e In the drawings the carline, which is preferably of trough shape in cross-section,- consists of a webfportion 2 and vertical flanges 3. These flanges 3 are preferably bent upwardly at' their ends, as shown at 3', and the web 2 is lpreferably narrowed, as'shown at 2', iving the shape of Fig. 4 at the ends. T ey are also preferably turned outwardly at their lower edges, as shown at 3'?, forming inclined lips, `which materially increase the strength of the carline and which will not, retain any of -the lading with which the car may be loaded.
The provision of these llanges also enables the edges of the carlinetokbetrimmed after l the pockets or recesses for the purlins, hereinafter referred to, are pressedin the carline.
'Such pressing distorts the lower ed es of the thence extend carline, and -these edges arediliicu t to trim' when the two sides of the carline are parallel.
The end portions of the .carline are bent or curved upwardly from the point a and The side plate-4 maybe recessed slightly at its u per edge to receive the thickness of the en portion of the carline, which thus avoids cutting the -side plate to an .undesirable depth. f Theweb' portion 2 of the carline preferfably terminates at the outer ed e of the side plate ;,b u t the llanges .3 exten beyond the l wnwardly and outwardly Substantially-in line with themain 'portion of the carline.
shownIiFigsfl-andizi 'These ilangesmay bev secured to Vthe 'side-plate by :any .suitable means, suchl .as the, bolts .5.'- v'lhe `vertical ',anges Vof thecarline hold, the sides of the car together independently of the bolts, so that the carlines are-much more eicientinI v strengthening the frame than in the.. form heretofore used.` I have shown the purlins 6 as resting in depressions 7 pressed in the top ofthe carline, for this urpose; but these'- l purlins may besupporte or secured 1n any desirable manner.
The advantages of my invention, result particularly where" purlinsof considerable 'y depth are employed. If the purlins are shallow,-the carline may rest in vertical recesses in the side plates; but if thepurlins are deep' these cuts become objectionable,
and the bend-ing of the lcarline as above shownand ldescribed avoids this difficulty. 4
Many variations may be made in the form and arrangement of the carline, side plates, purlins, &c., without-departing from my invention. v

A'carline having its end portions bent or .curved upwardly and thence extending outwardly and downwardly to rest on the side plates; substantially as described.
3. A carline having its end portion curved or bent upwardly and thence outwardly, the end having a downturned portion arranged to embrace the outer face of the side plate; substantially as described.
