RAIL BRACE ANCHOR Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC E01B9/30 E01B9/00 

FIELD: rail road construction, particularly for continuous welded rail track laying.

SUBSTANCE: anchor comprises stem to be embedded in sleeper and upper part limiting side rail displacement and adapted for resilient clamp connection. The anchor is made of scored and bent rolled material, namely of plate having side cut-out and bent parts projecting over sleeper surface. Central part of the plate remaining after plate scoring defines the stem. One or two orifices or depressions are made in upper plate part. Wall created in upper plate orifice part or depression and brought into contact with clamp during clamp fixation is inclined in direction of clamp advancing over rail during clamp mounting operation.

EFFECT: decreased metal consumption and costs of anchor production due to possibility of anchor forming of plate in cold stamping operation.
