Letters Patent No. 90,708, dated June l, 1869.
MRCVED RAILWAY-GATE.
` The Schedule referred to in. these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
different views.
A represents the gate, which may be of any desirable shape.
B, the rail, on which the car, or carriage is designed to' run.
0 is a. connecting-rod, pivoted to one ofthe perpendicular slats of the gate at a. v
D D are links, connecting the rod to the framework, or roadway.
F is across-bar, to which the perpendicular slats of the gate are secured.'
To each. end of this cross-barare hung the counterbalance-weights G.
The manner in which this gate is operated isas follows: v
'.lhe top of the connecting-rod O may be made with a ange, or guard, and 'broad enough to receive the periphery of the carriage-wheel, which, when it strikes the end of the same in passing along, throws .it forward, it being pivoted to the links D, as before stated, and also pivoted to the gate, thereby throwing that forward in the same direction the wheel, as it passes,
pressing down the connecting-rod, thus'holding the gate in a horizontal position until the` pressure is rey moved, when the weights, at the end of the cross-bar F, fall back, and thereby raise the gate to a perpen-` dicular position. ,l
The gate may also be used as a railroad guard-gate, the flange of the tread-wheel pressing down the con-A necting-rod, thereby operating the gate in the manner 'before described. It can also be operated from either direction.
The balance-weights G maybe encased in a box,- H, the ends of the cross-bar, to which they are secured, only entering at the side, thereby excluding all rain or snow, which, in cold weather, would freeze around the weights, and hold them stationary. v We are aware that gates for railroads have been rlhe combination of the connecting-rod Gand hinged links D, and weight G, when used to operate gate A, by the means and in the manner substantially as described.
