Universal slide-plate
A universal slide-plate includes a body and a drop-in shoulder member with a plurality of retaining members that cooperate to selectively connect the universal slide-plate and a stock rail to a rail platform and/or tie. The universal slide-plate has a slide surface configured to support a moveable point rail thereon. The universal slide-plate may be selectively removed and repositioned relative to a rail platform and/or tie.

RAIL FASTENING DEVICE
A rail fastening device (100) comprises a lower plate (11) and an upper plate (12) provided with a pair of clips (13) for engaging the rail 16, the upper plate (12) being fastened to the lower plate (11) by a pair of fastening bolts (19) which extend through respective apertures (20) in the upper plate (12), the fastening bolts (19) being slidably mounted to the lower plate (11) for movement in a direction which, in use, extends transverse the rail (16). A jacking bolt (31) is arranged to lift the upper plate away from the lower plate as the bolt (31) is tightened and vice-versa. An alignment bolt extends 33 laterally between the upper and lower plates (11), (12) and is rotatable to displace the upper plate (12) laterally relative to the lower plate (11). A levelling bolt (102) threadably engaged with the lower plate is arranged to lift the lower plate (11) away from the surface on which the device (100) is seated as the bolt (102) is tightened and vice-versa.
Railway rail anchoring device
A railway rail anchoring device (12) for fastening a railway rail (16) to an underlying foundation (18), the anchoring device comprising a protrusion (28), the anchoring device protrusion being configured to cooperate with a corresponding recess (36) provided in a receiving portion associated with the underlying foundation.

MODULAR SYSTEM FOR THE LAYING OF UNDERGROUND AND RAILROAD AND TRAM LINES
A module (100) for a system for the laying of underground and railroad and tram lines both in tunnel and on the surface, in particular railroad and tram lines, comprising a supporting slab (101) for the tracks (6), with substantially parallelepiped shape, the slab having at least four peripheral housings (1), passing from the extrados to the intrados and suitable to house respective adjustable levelling devices (120).

Guide plate and rail attachment point
The invention relates to a guide plate for laterally guiding a rail in a rail attachment point formed on a railroad tie, wherein the guide plate has a top side having a support surface for supporting a spring element, an underside, by way of which the guide plate is supported on the railroad tie during use, a support segment having a support surface, by way of which the guide plate is supported, during use, on a shoulder provided on the railroad tie, and possesses a guide segment which is formed opposite to the support segment, and on which a guide surface is present, on which a rail is laterally guided during use. In order to counteract twisting of the rail and concomitantly the risk of the occurrence of track warping at high outdoor temperatures when using such a guide plate in a rail attachment point, a latch projection is formed in lateral end segments of the guide surface, in each instance, projecting away from the guide surface in the longitudinal direction of the guide plate, which is provided for the purpose of engaging, during use, under the longitudinal side of the rail that is assigned to the guide surface, in each instance, wherein the distance between the latch projections amounts to at least 60% of the width of the guide surface.
Rail Clip Assembly
Rail clip assembly (1), comprising superposable first (10) and second bodies (11) arranged for being removably fastened to a rail support by a connector (9). The first body (10) comprises an abutment surface (121) adapted for abutment with a lateral face of a foot of a rail. The first and second bodies comprise corresponding apertures (122, 112) for receiving the connector (9), one (122) of the apertures being oblong with a longer axis (150) extending in a direction oblique to the abutment surface, to enable the first body to assume different positions relative to the second body. The first and second bodies comprise first corresponding surfaces (123, 111) configured for providing force transmitting contact between the first and second bodies when as The rail clip assembly is characterised in that the first and second bodies comprise second corresponding surfaces (124, 114) configured to enter into force transmitting engagement with each other upon fastening the assembly, which have an inclination at an angle between 20 and 85 relative to the horizontal, such that the engagement of the second surfaces with each other produces a net resulting force on the first body oriented towards the rail and resisting backing movement of the first body away from the lateral face of the rail foot upon fastening the connector.
BEARING APPARATUS, PARTICULARLY RAIL BEARING FOR A CRANEWAY
A bearing apparatus has a mounting element for mounting a construction element of a steel construction, a base element to be fastened to a supporting structure and an adjustable compensation device for adjusting a height position and an angular position of the mounting element relative to the base element and supporting the mounting element at the base element in direction of a virtual main axis. The compensation device comprises a mechanical series connection of a lockable articulated joint arrangement and a supporting column. The unlocked articulated joint arrangement allows the mounting element to be pivoted relative to the base element about any pivot axis orthogonally intersecting the main axis. The supporting column has a length which is variable by screwing an inner column in an outer column of the supporting column. A screwed-in position of the supporting column is fixed by the construction element mounted to the mounting element.
