A Railway Train Time Register.


Scientific American: A register which
shows positively to the engineer of an ap-
preaching train the exact time at which
the preceding train passed over the
track is herewith illustrated. 1t has
been patented by Messrs. Joshua b.
Dickover and Walter Scott, of Hot
Springs, South Dakota. The minute
hand arbor of the clock within the sta
ton projects through the back of the
clock case and to it is attached one end
of spindle which carries at it's opposite
end pinion engaging spur wheel of a
mechanism for connecting the time move
ment with a spring actuated dial mech
anism at the side of the track. This
mechanism is double frame exposing
opposite clock dials, and minute hand ar
bors in the frame impart motion to the
hour hands through dial wheels in the
usual way. These arbors have crown
pinions engaged by spur wheel on an
arbor of the connecting mechanism, and
one of the pinions is engaged by spur
wheel on main spring arbor to which is
attached one end on clock spring, the
other end being attached to the frame
A stud protects from the spur wheel of
the connecting mechanism, shown in Fig.
2, and upon it's arbor is an angled arm
to which is pivoted right angled lever,
a sleeve mounted on the arbor being in
the path of the longer arm of the lever.
Beneath this mechanism, on the base of
the instrument, is mounted an electro
magnet, the armature lever of which is
divided into two arms, one of which en-
cages the sleeve on the arbor while the
other engages toothed wheel of the
dial mechanism, retractile spring at
tached to the armature lever and to the
frame normally holding the lever away
from the magnet. Under one of the
track rails is placed bow spring carry
ing a contact point electrically connected
through battery cell with one terminal
of the magnet. On the passing of
train the spring beneath the track rail is
depressed, bringing the contact points
together and closing the circuit with the
magnet, when the latter attracts the two
armed armature lever, whereby the
sleeve is moved on the arbor of the con-
Meeting mechanism and toothed wheel of
the spring -actuated dial mechanism is
released, whereby the hands on the dials
are carried forward to indicate the time
shown by the clock at the moment the
contact points touch. When the train
has passed the circuit is broken, the re-
tractile spring then withdraws the arma-
ture lever, and the indicating mechanism
remains quiet, but the spur wheel of the
connecting mechanism is constantly car
ried forward by the clock, the stud of
this wheel limiting the movement OF the
indicating mechanism when the latter is
again started by the passing of follow
ing train.
