Patented Dec. 8, 1908.
Application filed May 22, 1908. Serial N o. 434,347.
To all whom it may concern:
TREE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Guymon, in the county of Texas, State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Railway-Rail Fastenings 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 rail fastenings in general and more particularly to a means for holding rails to metallic ties,the object of the invention being to provide a cheap, simple and efficient construction which will not only serve to prevent tilting of rails, but will prevent displacemen of the tires longitudinally of the rails.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be understood from the following description.
In the drawings forming a portion of this` specification and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views, Figure 1 is a section taken longitudinally through one end portion of a rallway tie and a rail, the fastening device being 'shown in elevation, Fig. 2 is a top plan viewi-of the structure shown in Fi 1, and Fig. 3 is a section on line 3*.3 of Figi. 1, the fastening device being shownl in plan, and the manner' of disengaging the fastening device from the rail, being illustrated in dotted lines.
Referring now to the drawings, there is illustrated a portion of a metallic railway tie 5, having formed in' its upper face a seat 6 which is overhung by portions 7 and 8 of the tie separated by the passage 9. The seatv is shaped and proportioned to receive the base iange 10 and a portion of the web 11 of a railway rail.
In the outer end portion of the tie 5 is formed a vertical perforation *12 which is threaded as illustrated, to' receive the threaded end portion of a bolt 13, which latter, above the tie is bent laterally and passed through a transverse slot 14 formed inthe web of the rail a short. distance above the upper face of the tie. The outer. end portion of the bolt 13 is likewise threaded as illustrated, that is the portion of the bolt that passes through and extends beyond the web of the rail, and upon the extremity thereof is engaged a nut 15. The nut 15 is screwed up tight so as to bind against the 'Be 1t known that I, SYLVESTER G. GRAB- outer face of the web of the rail as illustrated, it being understood that -perforation 12 is formed through a portion of the tie lying between the usual two track rails, so
that the fastening bolt serves to prevent tilting outwardly of the rail under the influence of working conditions.
To permit of insertion and removal of the bolt with respect to the slot 14, the latter is made sufliciently long, that it extends sufficiently longitudinally of the' rail web, to permit the bolt to swing into and through the slot when its extremity is started in the" slot and the rail is then moved in one direction or the tie is oppositely moved, and to swing out of the slot when the operation is reversed. It will of course be understood by inspection of Fig. 3 of the drawings, that when the nut 15 is screwed up tight as illustrated, `any movement of the tie longitudinally of the rail will serve to bind the nut tighter against the face of the rail web so that such movement is prevented.
What is claimed is- 1. The combination .with a` railway tie having a rail seat formed in its upper face and a vertical perforation inwardly from said seat and threaded, of a rail engaged in the seat and having an opening through its web portion, a bolt engaged with one end in the threaded perforatlon and having its opposite end portion turned laterally above the tie and passed through the opening of the rail web, and a nut engaged uponthe last named end of the bolt.
2. The combination with a railway tie having a rail seat formed in its upper face and a vertical threaded perforation inwardly from said seat, of a rail disposed in the seat and having` formed in its web portion a. slot extendingv longitudinally of the rail and through the web portion, a bolt engaged at sYLvEsTER e. CRABTREE.
