Abstract

941,408. Rail-and-wheel-flange lubricators. P. & M. CO. (ENGLAND) Ltd. Sept. 11, 1962 [Sept. 20, 1961], No. 33679/61. Heading F2A. In or for rail-and-flange lubricating apparatus for railway tracks of the kind including distributing means for location on a track rail 3 receiving lubricant from a reservoir 41 through one or more pumps, the actuating means therefor including an element 26 disposed in the path of the passing wheels of rolling stock to operate a pump 40 or pumps whereby lubricant is forced from the reservoir 41 to the distributing means for direction to the rail surface(s), the element 26 is operatively connected by hydraulic- or fluid-pressure-actuated means to a pump 40 to force the lubricant. The actuating means comprises a master cylinder 36 carried by a frame 2 fastened to a rail 3, in which the element 26 is mounted to operate a cylinder plunger through a pivoted lever 30 mounted in the frame 2, the cylinder 36 being connected by a pipe 38 to a slave cylinder 39 which actuates the pump 40. The frame 2 is secured by clamps 9 to a rail 3 and has abutments engageable by parts of the clamps 9. Each clamp 9 comprises a foot 16 engageable with the rail base flange 8 at one side, and a saddle 17 to engage with the flange 8 at the opposite side. The saddle 17 has teeth 20 which selectively engage teeth 21 on a clamp limb 14 to vary the position of the saddle 17 with the flange dimensions. The saddle 17 has a head 22 and recesses 23, 24, engaging selectively with the flange 8 and offset relative to the saddle teeth 20, so that further adjustment of the saddle 17 and clamp 9 is possible. The slave cylinder 39 and the pump 40 are mounted on the reservoir 41, the pump 40 having a hose 50 to deliver lubricant to the distributing means. By means of a valve 49 connected to the reservoir 41 a certain amount of lubricant can on each operation be returned thereto, to control the amount of lubricant delivery. To actuate the master cylinder 36 the lever 30 is operated by a part 29 of a ramp 26, pivotally mounted at 27 in the frame 2. Specification 941,407 is referred to.
