Like reference characters refer to like parts throughout the several views. 7
My invention is comprised of one, or more cars. The cars are preferably comprised of side girders I and 2. The side girders have railway trucks 3 and 4 mounted in their respective ends. Horizontally disposed platforms 5 and 6 secure the girders together and form a housing and top cover for the wheels comprising the trucks of the railway car.
Draw bars I and 8 are secured to the platfor assembly to adapt the railway car for being moved in a train of railway cars in the usual manner. 'A platform 9 is disposed between the trucks. The platform is comprised of cross beams and a deck cover.
A plurality of knees Ill .extend upwardly from the cross girders and the knees are secured to the cross girders by stiffening gussets H. A bracket l2 extends outwardly from the respective knees and, a jack, as a hydraulic jack is, is disposed within the side girders. The base it of the jack rests upon the base of the girders and is secured thereto by a bolt I5, or other suitable fastening.
The rim l6 of the jack rests upon the under side of the bracket l2. The energizing of the jacks raises the knees and the associated platform assembly.
The primary purpose and object of raising and lowering the platform to provide suitable means for lowering the load within the car assembly and to lower the center of gravity of the car and the load being disposed therein.
I provide ramps H and H3 at the oppositely disposed ends of the car to facilitate the driving of the motor vehicle trucks upon and within and the removal of the automotive trucks from the railway car.
The platform 9 is raised so that the top surface of the platform will be substantially in line with the top of the railway truck covers 5 and 6 during the loading and the unloading of the automotive trucks from the railway car.
During the transporting of the railway car with the trucks thereupon, the platform, upon which the automotive trucks ride, is lowered. Upon the delivery of the automotive truck upon the platform the automotive trucks are precisely positioned in order that the trucks may be placed over the lifting jacks l9 and 26. The jacks l9 and 2e are preferably made to engage the rear axle housing 2! of the automotive truck.
After the automotive trucks have been delivered upon and within the railway car, and the platform 9 has been positioned into placement, the heads 22 and 23, secured to the spindles 24 and 25, as illustrated in Fig. 9 are secured, by any suitable attaching means to the driving hubs 26 and 21 of the driving axle of the automobile trucks. The spindles 24 and 25 are slidably disposed within the sleeves 28 and 29 to form a driving shaft when assembled.
To exclude dust and dirt from the assembly,
one or more flexible collars 43 may beinterposed between the axle a2 and the gear case enclosing the sprockets and driving chains.
Referring to Figs. 10'to 17 inclusive, pairs of drums, or rollers 46 and 41 may be disposed f transversely of the platform 9. Axles 49 and 50 are disposed longitudinally of each of the drums, or rollers and an anti-friction bearing 5| is disposed between the shell of. the drum, or roller, and the axle, and a head 52 is disposed within each end of the drums, or rollers, to precisely position the axle and bearing therein.
A driving drum 53 that is larger in diameter The driving wheels 59 and E0 of the automotive; truck are positioned directly upon'therespective drums, or rollers 46 and 41 and the railway car is impelled and driven through the contact'of the driving wheels of the automotive 'truckwith the drums, or rollers, through the drum disposed upon the axle of the automotive railway car.
'Referring to Fig. 18, I may take the power from the driving axle of the automotive truck and deliver the same through stub shafts 6i and 62, I mount worms 63 upon the stub shafts. The worms coact with and drive worm gears 65. The respective worm gears are mounted upon shafts 61 and 68. Speed reducers are mounted upon the respective shafts 6! and 68 and the out-put end of the speed reducers delivers power through clutches 69 and l and through suitable sleeve and shaft connections to the axle H of the railway car. The respective worms and worm gears and the associated shafts are mounted within suitable housings 12 and 13.
It may be found necessary, or desirable, to take the power from the rear wheels of the automotive truck and deliver the same to the axle of the railway car by mechanism, as illustrated in Fig. 20. When so made, the drums 14 and 15 upon which the driving wheels of the automotive truck normally rest are spaced apart and suitable sprockets are placed upon the shafts of the drum-s. I place a, driving chain 16 therearound to deliver the power generated by the drums to the axle 11 through any suitable driving mechanism, as a chain 18.
While the form of mechanism herein shown and described is admirably adapted to fulfill the objects primarily stated, it is to be understood that it is not intended to confine the invention to the one form of embodiment herein shown and described, as it is susceptible of embodiment in various forms, all coming within the scope of the claims which follow.
