Filed:

Jun 11, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/878868

Inventors:

Edwin C. Bailey - East Amherst NY
Richard M. Mruk - Buffalo NY

Assignee:

Bison Steel, Inc. - Depew NY

International Classification:

B24B 100

US Classification:

451 59, 451909, 153091

Abstract:

A wire cleaning system includes a pair of blocks that are generally elongated and have an internal chamber. A conduit extends from the chamber to a port disposed at the side of the block. The port is connected to an air supply. A groove is made on one side of the block. The groove generally conforms to the wire diameter or shape. Holes are made from the bottom of the groove to the chamber. An abrasive media may be placed over the holes in the groove in the blocks. A pair of the above-described blocks with media disposed in the grooves are placed on opposite sides of the wire and squeezed together by clamps, holding the media against the wire. The face on the leading side of the block is placed against a stop to prevent it from moving as the wire is pulled. Additional pairs of blocks are added as required in a radial direction to cover the entire circumference of the wire. As the wire is pulled, air is injected into the ports in the blocks.

US Classification:

Abstract:

A railway car coupler includes a shank, a head connected to a head end portion of the shank, a knuckle pivoted to the head having closed and open positions, and a lock axially movable within a chamber formed in the shank between a knuckle engaged position for maintaining the knuckle in the closed position and a knuckle disengaged position for enabling the knuckle to be pivoted to the open position. A thrower is pivotally connected to the lock and has an arm disposed to one side of the pivot for engaging the knuckle to rotate the knuckle to its open position. An actuating mechanism is connected to the thrower-lock assembly and is axially movable within the chamber. The actuating mechanism functions to axially move the lock towards its knuckle disengaged position, with continued movement of the actuating mechanism in the same direction pivoting the thrower and consequentially the knuckle to its open position after the lock has obtained its knuckle disengaged position.
