Abstract

A coil car has a pair of deep side sills and a trough structure mounted to, and suspended between, the deep side sills for carrying coils. The side sills extend between the rail car trucks and act as a pair of deep side beams for carryin g vertical loads. The deep side sills are arranged to extend above and below the center sill of the coil car to give vertical stiffness to the coil car. The top chord membe rs of the side sills are outwardly splayed relative to the bottom chord members of the side sills. Cross-bearers extend outwardly and away from the center sill to attach to th e side sills. The trough structure has three parallel, longitudinally extending troughs - a central trough lying between two laterally outboard outer troughs. Each trou gh is shaped to cradle steel coils, or other similar loads, between its inwardly a nd downwardly sloping shoulder plates. The shoulder plates are lined with cushioning to buffer coils during loading or travel. The outboard troughs are mounted abov e longitudinally extending stringers and are carried at a greater height relative to top of rail than the central trough. The car has coil stops to discourage longitudinal shifting of loaded coils. The coil stops have rollers to facilitate repositioning during loading, and a mid-span step and hand grabs to facilitate climbing over the coil stop by personnel walking along the trough structure.

1. A coil stop for a rail road coil car, the coil car having a trough structure in which to carry coils, said coil stop comprising a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends, and said coil stop having a step mounted on said beam member between said first and second ends, whereby to facilitate climbing over said coil stop.
2. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein said step includes a tread plate mounted upon said beam.
3. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein said step is mounted centrally on said beam.
4. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein a hand grab is mounted to said beam adjacent to said step.
5. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein a pair of first and second hand grabs are mounted to either side of said step.
6. The coil stop of claim 4 wherein said handgrab is an upwardly extending hand rung.
7. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein said beam includes a horizontal web, and said step is mounted to said horizontal web.
8. The coil stop of claim 7 wherein said horizontal web has lightening holes defined therein.
9. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein at least one of said first and second ends has an indexing member mounted thereto for engagement with the coil car.
10. The coil stop of claim 1 wherein said coil stop includes rollers mounted at said first and second ends therefor for facilitating positioning of said coil stop in the trough structure of the rail car.
11. A coil stop for a rail road coil car, the coil car having a trough structure in which to carry coils, said coil stop comprising a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends, and said coil stop having rollers mounted at said first and second ends to facilitate positioning of the coil stop relative to the trough structure.
12. The coil stop of claim 11 further comprising indexing members mounted at said first and second ends of said beam member, said indexing members being engageable to maintain said coil stop in a fixed position relative to the trough structure.
13. The coil stop of claim 11 further comprising attachment means mounted at said first and second ends of said beam by which to secure the coil stop in a fixed position relative to the trough structure.
14. The coil stop of claim 13 wherein said attachment means includes a first perforated plate extending from said first end of said beam member, and a second perforated plate extending from said second end of said beam member.
15. The coil stop of claim 13 wherein said attachment means includes a first pair of spaced apart perforated plates extending from said first end of said beam member, and a second pair of spaced apart perforated beam members extending from said second end of said beam member.
16. A rail road coil car comprising:
a rail car body supported by rail car trucks for rolling motion in a longitudinal direction;
said rail car body including a trough structure for carrying coils, and at least one coil stop for restraining coils loaded in said trough structure;
said coil stop being movable along said trough structure;
a trackway mounted to said body for guiding the coil stop along said trough structure;
said coil stop having fittings engaged with said trackway, said fittings and said trackway being co-operable to permit motion of said coil stop along said trough structure.
17. The coil car of claim 16 wherein:
said trough structure includes a first longitudinally oriented trough;

The coil car of claim 17 wherein said trackway includes a first portion mounted to said first side sill and a second portion mounted to said second side sill; and said coil stop has a beam member spanning said trough, said beam member having a first end mounted to said first side sill and a second end mounted to said second side sill.
19. The coil car of claim 16 wherein said coil stop comprises:
a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends; and said coil stop has a step mounted on said beam member between said first and second ends, whereby persons walking along the trough structure can more easily climb over said coil stop.
20. The coil stop of claim 19 wherein said step includes a tread plate mounted upon said beam.
21. The coil stop of claim 19 wherein said step is mounted centrally on said beam.
22. The coil stop of claim 19 wherein a hand grab is mounted to said beam adjacent to said step.
23. The coil stop of claim 19 wherein a pair of first and second hand grabs are mounted to either side of said step.
24. The coil stop of claim 22 wherein said hand grab is an upwardly extending hand rung.
25. The coil stop of claim 19 wherein said beam includes a horizontal web, and said step is mounted to said horizontal web.
26. The coil stop of claim 25 wherein said horizontal web has lightening holes defined therein.
27. The coil car of claim 16 wherein said coil stop comprises:

a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends;
said body has at least a first indexing fitting mounted thereto; and at least one of said first and second ends has a second indexing member mounted thereto, said second indexing member being co-operable with said first indexing member to maintain said coil stop in a fixed position relative to said trough structure.
28. The coil stop of claim 16 wherein:
a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends; and said coil stop includes rollers mounted at said first and second ends therefor for facilitating positioning of said coil stop in the trough structure of the rail car.
29. A coil stop for a rail road coil car, the coil car having a trough structure in which to carry coils, said coil stop comprising a beam member for spanning the trough structure, said beam member having a first end, a second end, and a medial portion extending between said first and second ends, and said coil stop having a hand grab mounted on said beam member between said first and second ends, whereby to facilitate climbing over said coil stop by persons walking along said trough structure.
