' acts to hol CHARLES JOHNSON NOGLE AND GEORGE HAAS, OF GALVESTON, TEXAS.
RAIL FAs'rENING'oR CHAIR Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 19, 1909.
Application led Iluly 8,1957. Serial No. 382,801.
To all whom 'it may concern:
` Be it known thatwe, CHARLES JOHNSON NO'GLE and GEORGE HAAS, citizens of the United States, residing at Galveston, in the county of Galveston and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rail Fastenings or Chairs, of which the following is a specification.
Our` invention relates to new and useful im rovements in rail fastenings.
he object of the invention is to provide a simple and fpositive fastening which not only spreading or tilting of the same.
Another feature residesin the provision ofA broad and flat bearin s alternately a lied from opposite sides of t e rails, the saidpb) ings being disposed to cause the rails to inoline sli h tl inward. v
Fina y t e` object' of the invention is to .provide a device of the character describedA that will be strong, durable, eiiicient and simple and comparatively inexpensive to' construct, lalso one in which the I`several parts will not be likely to get out of working order.
With the above and other Vob'ects in view, the invention has articular relation to certain new and usefu features of construction,
' a preferable embodiment of v'which is descrlbed in the following specification 'and illustrated. in the accompanying drawings, wherein: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a track showing the fastening applied thereto'. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of one of the rails and a ortion of the ties showing the fastenin s in p ace. Fig. 3 is a perspective view oft e inner fastening member, and Fig. t is a perspective view of the outer fastening member. f
In the drawin s, the numerals 1 and 2 de'- signate' the usua ties and 3 the rails.
Y kIn carrying out the invention, inner mem--4 bers4vand outer members 5- are provided.
Each member is formedv with upwardly inclined'clamps or hooks 6 which snugly engageV over the flange of the rail as clearly shown 1n Fig. 2. These hooks project from a late 7 a flat underside 8. 1- It vwill observe that the plates are iat and broad to give a substantial bearing on the ties on the rails in place, but prevents eari which they rest, .thus bracing thern ag :inst tilting. i l' 1 e -.The inner member 4 is applied vwith its hook toward the inside of the track. Attention is directed to the u per side of theplate 7 of the inner memberw ich is inclined downward toward the inside of the. track or inward, asl indicated at 9. beveled at 10 to ermit an easya plication of the rail and al ow the same to be readily slid onto the plate. A sharp edge would interfere, .as is evident. v
The outer member 5 is disposed with its hook outward,.while the upper surface 11 of itsplate, 7 inclines inward and downward, lying in the same plane as the surface 9. This causes the rail 3, as indicated in Fig. 2
The outer edge is to incline slightly inward, thi s affording a vthereby firmly. holding the members and rails in place. v
ln laying the track, the inner members 4 are placed 4on the tie 1 as described and -shown in Fi 1, that is, near each end of the tie. The rails-3 are next placed on the members and being properly gaged, are spiked in place. The outer members are disposed :on the next tie 2, with their hooks reversed, l
and owing to. their inclined surface are readily driven into position and spiked down. The members arearranged in this alternating and sta gered relation throughout the track, sotat the rails are rigidly clamped by alternating flange. engaging hookson each side'of their webs.-
What we claim is:-
. In arail fastening, the combination with the rail and the ties, of separate fastening members,`one of said members placed on one tie and the other on another tle, one of said Vmembers comprisingv an inclined plate provided with a rail receiving hook at` its upper end, theyother., member comprising anl mj dined plate provided with a mii receiving names to this specification in the presence of hook at its lower end, said plates being i two subscribing Witnesses. s iked on separ'ate ties with their lower ends CHARLES JOHNSON NOGLE.
-rected inward, the hook o1" one plate being GEORGE HAAS. 5 on the outside of the rail and the hook of the g W'itnesses:
other plate being on the inside of the mii. E, Vi HARDWAY, In testimony whereof We have signed our XVM. A. OATHEY.
