Abstract: A lock bearing for a points setting arrangement has a lock bearing screw penetrating a foot of a setting tongue and a spring package arranged between the foot and the screw head of the screw. Therefore the lock bearing screw can be tightened with a relatively narrowly definable torque range and still has the rotation reserve to bring the position of the head of the lock bearing screw into line with a hole in a safety plate mapping the screw head which then, upon being inserted as previously known, latches in place over the head of the lock bearing screw. An alternative embodiment has a lock bearing with a lock bearing screw penetrating a foot of a setting tongue and an anti-rotation ring enclosing the head of the lock bearing screw in an annular, force-fitted manner with an outer toothing and a safety plate matching the outer toothing.

Abstract: A lock bearing for a points setting arrangement has a lock bearing screw penetrating a foot of a setting tongue and an anti-rotation ring enclosing the head of the lock bearing screw in an annular, force-fitted manner with an outer toothing and a safety plate matching the outer toothing. It therefore is possible to tighten the lock bearing screw within a small torque range and only to have to align the lock bearing screw with the pitch of the outer toothing. Therefore if, for example, the outer toothing has 36 teeth, the lock bearing screw only need to be aligned within a range of maximum 10°. The anti-rotation ring functions like an adapter for the toothing mass and contributes to the fact that no modifications need to be carried out on the remaining construction of the lock bearing, which is advantageous as regards safety and approval considerations.
