IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO ARRANGEMENTS FOR SECURING A RAIL ON A SLEEPER

摘要

An assembly for securing a rail to a railway track sleeper of the type in which the rail is clamped on the sleeper by a resilient clip placed under stress by means of a nut screwed on a bolt associated with the sleeper. A bolt is provided with a shoulder which serves as an abutment to prevent undesired deformation of the resilient clip and/or the appearance of excessive extraction forces on the bolt when the nut is screwed down on the bolt. The bolt provided with a shoulder may be used with a variety of resilient clips.
