Abstract: The present application describes a rail clip assembly, particularly but not exclusively for securing a crane rail to a flanged girder. The assembly comprises a first part adapted to be attached to the rail support surface adjacent the rail, a second part overlying the first part and having a lateral surface for abutment with a lateral face of the rail, and a bolt for fixing the second part to the first part independently of attachment of the first part to the rail support surface. The parts have aligned apertures through which the bolt extends, one of the apertures being elongate to enable the second part to assume different positions relative to the first part. The elongate aperture extends in a direction inclined at an acute angle to the longitudinal direction of the rail. The first and second parts have cooperating laterally directed surfaces which are abutted in all relative positions of the parts for transmitting to the first part laterally directed forces applied to the second part by the rail.

Abstract: The present application describes a rail clip assembly, particularly but not exclusively for securing a crane rail to a flanged girder. The rail clip assembly comprises a body member (1) which has a base portion (2) for connection a rail support surface (3) and a lip portion (4) which can, in use, overlie an edge of a rail (5). The body member has a first surface (6) which, in use, extends parallel to the rail and abuts a lateral face of the rail, a second surface (8) facing away from the first surface and an elongate slot (9) for receiving a connector for connecting the body member to the rail support surface. The slot (9) extends in a direction which is generally inclined with respect to the first surface (6). The assembly further comprises a pivoting member (13) which pivots about a point which is located on the body member, the pivoting member including an aperture (14) for registration with the slot (9) and for receiving the connector.
