Abstract
A simulated track inductor mount including a base configured to be fixed against a supporting surface and an inductor hub attached to and extending from the base. The inductor hub includes one or more surfaces defining a margin and being configured to engage with an inner surface of the simulated track inductor, and the one or more surfaces are fixed to a camming tab configured to flex to removably seat the simulated track inductor on the inductor hub.
Claims16
A simulated track inductor mount, said mount comprising:
- a base configured to be fixed against a supporting surface;
- and
- an inductor hub attached to and extending from the base,
- said inductor hub including—
- one or more surfaces defining a margin and being configured to engage with an inner surface of the simulated track inductor,
- at least one relieved surface extending inside the margin of the inductor hub and defining a recession, the recession being configured to accommodate a projection from the inner surface of the simulated track inductor,
- said one or more surfaces include two generally opposing convex surfaces,
- said margin is substantially cylindrical,
- said at least one relieved surface includes two generally opposing concave surfaces alternatingly disposed between the two generally opposing convex surfaces.
A simulated track inductor mount, said mount comprising:
- a base configured to be fixed against a supporting surface;
- and
- an inductor hub attached to and extending from the base,
- said inductor hub including one or more surfaces defining a margin and being configured to engage with an inner surface of the simulated track inductor, the one or more surfaces being fixed to a camming tab configured to flex to removably seat the simulated track inductor on the inductor hub,
- wherein said one or more surfaces includes two generally opposing convex surfaces and said margin is substantially cylindrical, further comprising two generally opposing relieved surfaces alternatingly disposed between the two generally opposing convex surfaces and respectively defining two recessions configured to accommodate a projection from the inner surface of the simulated track inductor.
A railway termination shunt enclosure, said enclosure comprising:
- one or more outer walls;
- a mount including a base attached to an interior surface of said one or more outer walls and an inductor hub attached to and extending from the base;
- a termination shunt positioned within the one or more outer walls;
- and
- a simulated track inductor removably seated on the mount, the termination shunt and the
- corresponding simulated track inductor being in electrical communication, said mount including—
- one or more surfaces defining a margin and engaging with an inner surface of the simulated track inductor,
- at least one relieved surface extending inside the margin of the inductor hub and defining a recession, the recession accommodating a projection from the inner surface of the corresponding simulated track inductor,
- wherein said projection comprises a cable tie.
A railway termination shunt enclosure, said enclosure comprising:
- one or more outer walls;
- a mount including a base attached to an interior surface of said one or more outer walls and an inductor hub attached to and extending from the base;

- and
- a simulated track inductor removably seated on the mount, the termination shunt and the
- corresponding simulated track inductor being in electrical communication, said mount including—
- one or more surfaces defining a margin and engaging with an inner surface of the simulated track inductor,
- at least one relieved surface extending inside the margin of the inductor hub and defining a recession, the recession accommodating a projection from the inner surface of the corresponding simulated track inductor, wherein—
- said one or more surfaces include two generally opposing convex surfaces,
- said margin is substantially cylindrical,
- said at least one relieved surface includes two generally opposing concave surfaces alternatingly disposed between the two generally opposing convex surfaces.
