DEVICE FOR REMOVING INSULATING ANGLE PLATES OF FLEXIBLE RAIL FASTENINGS

FIELD: railway transport; track machines. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to manually operated track machines used for demounting of flexible rail fastenings, particularly, for pushing out insulating angle plate from anchor fastening of rail track. Proposed device for removing insulating angle plates of flexible rail fastenings has turnable handle with hook and support and lever turnable relative to handle. Hook is made in form of thickened and widened blade on end of handle for engagement with projection on insulating angle plate. Support of handle is made in form of bushing turnable relative to first axle-brace on first end of lever. Lever is made spring-loaded relative to handle with split members tied by first and second axles-braces. Second axle-brace is located on second end of lever and is made for engagement with inner surface of anchor. Members of lever on its second end are made widened and are provided with cavities for engagement with face of rail foot. ^ EFFECT: simplified design of construction at realization of possibility of forcing off rail foot from angle plate. ^ 2 dwg
