Application led September 22, 15508. Serial No. 54,177.
To allmhom it @may concern: 4
I Se 1t known that I, EMIL C. ANDERSON, a cxtlzen of the United States, residing at DownersGrove, 'in the county ofDupege and State of Illinois, have invented certain l new and useful Improvements in Car- Framework, specification.
The principal object of my 'invention is ofwhich the following is a made apparent in the following speciiication Land 2.
and claims, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which "Figure 1 is a top plan view takenpartly in section on thelinel, 1 of Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a side elevation takenl on the li-ne 2, 2 of Fig. 1. jgs. 3 and 4' are transverse sections taken, respectively on the correspondingly numbered ines in iige.-
I huye chosen toillustrate one articular embodiment of m invent-ion in tie drowwhich show' ow the invention may be ings incorporated upon the removal of a wooden center si1l from a' freight car and the substimmenof an iron center sill comprising two channel beams. In this ease-if the chan- A nel .beams alone wer'e substituted for-the wooden' sill members, the buing stresses would act princi ally along their lower iianges, and thus ere would be-a tendency to cause these anges to buckle. My invenvtion obviates. this diiiiculty and otherwise contributes to increase the strength of the under hamework of the car. If the weight ofl the channel beams were' increased sui- .stitute a'dead load. By
ciently to havethe requisite strength without reinforcement, then the extra material introduced between the body holsters and elsewhere would wasted and would conm` invention the center' sill is reinforced exactly when-e greater strength is needed and there is no extra material employed.
The 4center sill channel beams 1-5 have lwooden nailing strips 16 fastened thereto along their upper ed es by means of the bolts 17. 4The floor p anks 18n.rc attached to the nailinvr stri s 16 and to the interniediate and 51de si 1s 20. 'lhe-body bolster comprises' two trausvelse Lhemns 19 overlaid with a plate 48. The side and intermediate sills 2Q rest en this plate 48.
The dreftcastings22, which are intended provide 'an improved reinforced center. sill for cars. This object and others will be partly in sectionA `to support the draft freer,V are attache'clto the websof the cha-luigi beams 15 `bymenns of lrivets 29. Each draft castin'g 22 has a flange `23 the-t extends under-the lower flange 25 of the corres ending i reinforcin through al three langes23, .24: and'25.- Along its'. upper edge each draft (testine-22 has an inwardl directed flange '5 1' a ove which at one point is a lug 27 (see Fig. 2)'

Toward the end of the car each draft 22 has an obli ue web 37 (see Fig. 2 w ich ends '1 n an a utment 38.4 These a utments '38 he against the iron across the ends o the channel beams .1.5. Angular corner irons 40 are secred by 15, and bybther rivets 4 2 to the late 39.

Above the body bolster 19 beside the intermediate and side sills 20 are the brackets 49; which form supports for the-truss rods 50.
The reinforcing angle irons 24. extend from 'the body ear, being secured bolster by the stren hen the center sill channel beams 15 :iso as gti enable them resist'bufng channel beam' 15.: Overlying this ange 25 is the -angle-gironv member 24. .Rivets 26 a .-pass Between the extensions 34 of each pair lies.

In combination, a center sill comprising 'clmnnel beam, a body bolster beneath said center sill, and a reinforcing angle ironhaving one flange riveted to the web of the chan- 'ne beam and the other flange riveted to one .-flange of the channel beam, said angle iron having one end riveted to the body bolster alnd extending therefrom to the end of the 4. In combination, a'center sill comprising .e channel beam, a draft casting riveted to the 'face of the channel beam away from its flanges, a flange on said draft casting lying under one flange of the channel beam, and a [sean l reinforcing angle iron lying over said flange of the channel-beam'.
5. Incombination, a center sill comprsinv two channel beams with theinflanges turned away from each other, draft castings riveted to the inner'faces of the respective channel 50 beams, and reinforcino angle irons overlying the lower flanges of the said channel beams and riveted thereto.A
