WILLIAM H. FAiLOR, oF CANTON, OHIO, AssIerNoB. OF ONF-HALF 'ro WILLIAM H.
,FINKFNBINDER, OF CARLISLE, PENNSYLVANIA.
RAIL-FASTENER.
To all whom may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. FAILOR, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, Stark county, Ohio, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Rail-Fasteners, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
r1`his invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in rail fasteners and has for its object to provide a new and novel construction of metallic rail tie, and fastening means for retaining the rails thereon.
Another object of the invention resides in the provision of a tie which may be constructed at a minimum cost and rail engaging blocks arranged upon said tie and adapted to engage the rail upon the base flange and the web thereof, said blocks, rails and the tie being rigidly connected and fastened together by means of a single clamping bolt.
A further object is to provide a metallic tie comprising parallel side members having inwardly extending flanges formed on their upper and lower longitudinal edges, said members being adapted to receive cement or other ballast between them, and a metallic seat positioned between the sides of the tie to support the rails for engagement by the fastening blocks.
lllith these and other objects in view, th invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a rail tie and fastener embodying my improvement; Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section through one end of the tie and the rail; Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of one end of the rail tie, the rail and clamping blocks being` removed; Fig. 4 is a fragmentary detail perspective view of one of the tie plates; Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of one of the fastening blocks; and, Fig. 6 is a similar view of the other fastening block.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 5 indicates the tie plates which are of similar construction, each comprising a longitudinally extending body portion and the transversely extending flange 6. The

ends of the tie plates are connected by means of the blocks 7, said blocks being provided in their ends with transverse grooves 8, which are adapted to receive the upper inwardly extending flanges 6, of the tie plates. rlphe lower flanges of the tie plates extend under the bottom Of the block and provide a support therefor upon the road bed. The
edges of the blocks 7, are formed with beveled surfaces 7 which extend above the tie and terminate in a point at the longitudinal center of the block.
The block 7, is formed at its lower end with a downwardly extending lip 9, which is adapted to prevent the t-ie moving from its original position. The flanges 6, of the tie plates are cut away a short distance inwardly of the tie blocks 7, and beyond the cutaway portions the transverse iianges are bent downwardly upon the outer faces of the tie plate as shown at 6. The block 10, extends transversely between the tie plates and is disposed upon the lower lianges thereof. The upper surface of this block is disposed in a line with the upper surfaces of the upper flanges 6, of the tie plate and extends between the opposed outwardly dis- This block provides a suitable seat Or chair for the rail 11.
Between the Outside face of the rail and the inner beveled surface of the block 7, one of the fastening members 1Q is positioned. This member has close engagement upon the beveled surface of the block 7, and occupies the entire space between the opposed tie plates 5. rThis block is formed with a longitudinal inwardly extending portion 13, which is disposed upon the base flange and against the outer face of the rail 11 and is likewise formed with downwardly extend* ing arms 14, which receive the tie plates 5, and are disposed upon the outer faces of said plates. The other Vof the fastening blocks 12 has sliding movement upon the rail plates and is likewise formed with a longitudinal extension 15, for engagement with the base flange and web of the rail. This block is provided at its opposite ends with the slots 16 which form the arms 16 similar to the arms 14 of the block 12, for engagement upon the outer face of the tie plates. g'
In assembling the device, the tie plates are Y. arranged opposed relation and the blocks Y 7 positioned between their ends.
blocks and` plates may be secured together.
The
by means of suitable bolts 17, which are Ydisposed through the tie Vplates and blocks and have nuts threaded ontheir ends in the usual manner.
end block 7 asshown in Fig. 2. Y The fastening member 12, is then positioned between the plates 5, and upon ther-flanges thereof Yandfis moved a suiiicient distance inwardly from the end of the tie to permit of the insertion of the rail block. rlhe rail is arranged upon the seat block beneath t-he inwardly extending end 13 "ofthe member .12. The member 12 is then shoved into position for engagement with the inner face of the rail in the manner above set forth.
-Each Yof the fastening blocks, the rail supporting lblock 10, and thetie block 7 ,is provided 'with a bolt receiving opening. When thus arranged, the boltV 18, is disposed through the alined openings,said bolt being yprovided with a washer and a clamp-Y K ing nut at its outer end whereby said nit Abetween the tie plates may be then filled with concrete or other material to provide a suitable ballast. If desired the bottom fianges of the tie plates may be corrugated to more securely fix the tie in position after the same has been filled with the ballasting material and properly tamped.
From the foregoing,it is believed that the construction and operation of my improvedrail tieand fastener will be readily understood, Awithout necessitating a more in construction, may be ineXpensively-produced, and is extremely useful and highly eflicient in use. 'The rails will be rigidly held uponthe tiesV and the expansion and vcontraction of the metal due to the variations in temperature will not aect thesame to f such extent that the invention it will be understood that the same is Lsusceptible to many minor modifications withoutdeparting .from the essential features or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.
Having thus described the invention what Y is claimed is 1. Ina rail fastener, the combination with a tie comprising longitudinally extending tie; plates, means for holding said pla-tes together at their ends, fastening members rei movably Varranged upon said tie plates, a Y 'Y railsupportingblock disposed `between said rIhe fastening member 12 is vnow arranged upon the tie plates upon the supporting block, fasteningV members and plate connecting means, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
