Description

For manual braking of cars driven by their own weight on inclined tracks or manually on horizontal tracks, the brake is performed as a rail shoe composed of two parts interconnected at the hinge, of which one upper part can turn the wheel at its proper rotation or serve as a stop to facilitate the movement of the shoe along the rail under the pressure of the car’s own weight.

In FIG. 1 depicts a view of the rail brake on the side in the working nof Lozhenin; FIG. 2 is the same front view.

The rail brake has the form of a rail shoe and consists (2) of two main parts, of which Part A rests with its lower surface on the rail head, and on the side facing the wheel is provided with an abutment L. On the transverse axis, fixed in part A, the upper part B of the rail brake is rotatably mounted, consisting of two branches, one of which can come into contact with the bandage, and the other with the upper surface of the rail between the side edges of part A. In the upper tide in part A , on the transverse hinge, a pivot fist G is fastened, equipped with two processes in contact with the branches of the brake part L, and the axis of the fist G is rigidly connected with a lever equipped with a handle D.

When the car moves along an inclined path, due to its own weight or along a horizontal path when manually moving it, the shoe brake is placed on the rail in front of the wheel rotating in the direction of the arrow indicated in FIG. 1, at which the carriage pushes the shoe along the rail, with the wheel resting against the part -Biv 4acTtv В, the lower branch of which lies on the rail head while the handle D lifts it up. When lowering the handle D down the process of the fist G presses the upper branch of part B and presses it to the bandage, contributes to the wedging of the wheel and stopping the car.

The subject of the patent.

1. Rail brake, characterized in that it is made in the form of a rail shoe consisting of two main, pivotally connected to each other, in contact with the shroud

(and the lower part also has a rail) parts that, if the upper pivot part is installed, either tightly grip the running surface of the tire wedge to jam the wheel, or serve as a stop to allow the shoe to move along the rails, being driven by the wheel moving along inclined

rails under the influence of its own weight carts.

2. The form of the implementation described in paragraph 1 of the brake, characterized in that the turning part of the shoe is set to the appropriate angle of rotation with the fist G, controlled by the handle D.
