Anchor for a track system sleeper embedded in ballast

摘要

In the case of an anchor for a track system sleeper embedded in ballast, which anchor is equipped with a surface secured on the sleeper and projecting into the ballast in a direction transverse to the sleeper axis for the purpose of increasing the transverse displacement resistance of the track system, large-scale clearing work is avoided and a simple and rapid assembly is permitted by means of the surface of the anchor being made up of two plates which are secured at the ends of a basically U-shaped and preferably self-tensioning bracket which surrounds the sleeper essentially transverse to its axis in the area of the upper surface and side surface of the sleeper. <IMAGE>
