ABSTRACT:
A railroad car uncoupling lever assembly having a handle member, a lock lifter member, and means for connecting the two members and permitting their relative axial movement in response to lateral and longitudinal movements of the railroad coupler. The connecting means includes, in one embodiment, a plurality of guide sleeves formed of high lubricity plastic material snap fitted onto one of the members with a bearing face engageable with the other member to facilitate movement of the members and reduce wear. In a second embodiment the guide sleeves are mounted on opposite sides of a connecting member to permit extensive telescoping movement of the uncoupling assembly.
