JLS:pm 2/7/80 Case 5764 CARRIER ASSEMBLY FOR USE WITH A ROTARY RAILROAD COUPLER SYSTEM ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE To maintain horizontal alignment of a shank and attached coupler head of a rotary railroad coupler system, a middle portion of the shank is supported by a carrier assembly connected to a striker casting of the coupler system. During rotation of the shank and coupler head in a dumping procedure, for example, the shank interfaces with a saddle casting portion of the carrier assembly to cause wear thereof. To facilitate replacement of the saddle casting portion once wear becomes excessive, the saddle casting portion is provided with spaced inverted T-shaped lugs which allow the saddle casting portion to be removed from a carrier portion o f the carrier assembly by means of spaced grooves provided in the carrier portion. Separation of the saddle casting portion from the carrier portion, however, is prevented when the saddle portion and carrier portion are misaligned. -1-
