RAILCAR COUPLER KNUCKLE CORES AND KNUCKLES PRODUCED BY SAID CORES.

摘要

A core assembly for forming the interior spaces of a railcar coupler knuckle has a first transition section (62) between the C-10 portion (50) of the core and the finger portion (48) of the core. The first transition section (62) has a first side (82), a second side (84), a third side (88) and a fourth side (90) and the first and second sides form the vertical axis (86) of the first transition section (62) and the third and fourth sides form the horizontal axis (92) of said first transition section (62). The vertical axis (86) of the first transition section (62) has a height along a horizontal plane of the vertical axis (86) of at least 2.5" and the horizontal axis (92) of said first transition section (62) has a width along a vertical plane of the horizontal axis (92) of at least 0.925".
