An interlocking type F railway vehicle railway coupler recognized by the Association of American Railroads (A.A.R.) as alternate standard equipment and which is provided with a hood. The hood has a roof which overlies the knuckle-receiving recess of the F typecoupler to afford vertical interlock between two opposed coupled car couplers when the F coupler is intercoupled with an automatic knuckle-type of car coupler known as an A.A.R. Standard Ecoupler.
A rotary railway coupler has a shank with a butt end portion for mounting to a coupler yoke and a head end portion on its opposite end portion. A coupler head has a guard arm side portion, a knuckle side portion and a knuckle mounted therewith for cooperative connection with another mating railway car coupler. The shank has on its head end portion a mount for rotatably mounting the coupler head. A mount within the coupler head rotatably connects the coupler head and the coupler shank for rotation of the coupler head relative to the shank.
A railcar coupler having a head portion extending from a shank portion, the coupler head portion is configured to couple to a firstcoupler knuckle for coupling the railroad car coupler to a second railcarcoupler of an adjacent railcar. The railway car coupler has weight reduction features that also are configured to provide strength to the couplerwhen handling forceloads. The coupler may have a head with a front face with bores provided in the front face a cavity extending through the coupler, a guard arm with cavities formed therein, and a shank having a plurality of longitudinal cavities and adjacent ribs separating the cavities. Preferred embodiments may be constructed from an austempered metal.
