Description

The invention relates to a loading station with the Features of the preamble of claim 1.

Loading systems currently in operation and in operation include gantry cranes, some of which are enormous, which the Railway loading tracks, lanes for trucks and the storage area for the goods, such as containers, saddles overlay and the like, must span. Through their Such systems require a great structure and their arrangement long lead and lag on the streets because of the required substantial handling time for the goods to be loaded, whereby the overall transportation time is extended and the transportation costs become more expensive.

As a result of the ever increasing freight traffic on the already congested roads is particularly affected by the transportation route Rail improved performance and economy expected.

To achieve this goal, the infrastructure of the Ver sweeping rail can be improved. A sustainable verb It must be carried out precisely where the rail and Road form the interface and with each other for the he aiming for an improved and enlarged transport performance be combined. This combined freight operator is only competitive if a sufficient number of handling  Terminals for goods handling are available whose Performance meets the requirements mentioned.

The object of the invention is to produce a loading crane and in the context of a loading station to apply a ver greater loading speed with reduced at the same time Construction effort allowed.

This task is ge at a loading station named type with the characteristics of the characteristic part of the Claim 1 solved. The subclaims relate in particular favorable additions to the invention. Claim 1 and sub Claims are also part of the description.

By using a loading crane in the form of a a gantry crane movable gantry crane, it is possible to Handling goods during the freight train very slowly drives so that it does not have to start and brake all the time or the length of the loading system does not exceed the entire length of a train, for example 30 wagons, must extend.

With this inventive training a loading station is it is possible to use standardized containers, swap bodies and Fold trailer between rail and road. The Design of this loading station and the loading crane made possible lichen it that the loading of the container itself live overhead line of a track system what can be done carrying out the loading simplified.

It is also possible to have several loading stations of this type to be arranged side by side and thus larger handling facilities to achieve stungen, in which case the list the loading cranes transfer the load from a loading station which makes the neighboring one very easy. The load  can be used with the loading cranes of the neighboring loading stations exchanged, sorted and further be handed over.

With this new loading station it is also possible to take the Loading between train, truck and ship in port areas Rivers or canals. By arranging the Loading cranes on an arched track can result from the short Transshipment routes have a very short reloading time and therefore a very high good loading of the loading station for container handling can be reached between rail, road and ship.

The invention is based on the drawing of an embodiment form described. It shows:

Figure 1 is a partial perspective view of a loading station, seen from the side of the loading crane.

Figure 2 is a top view of two adjacent loading stations, schematically.

Figure 3 is a plan view of a loading station between rail, truck and ship.

Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a loading station seen from the loading ice side.

The loading station has a loading crane 30 consisting of two main parts, of which one of the parts is located on a circularly curved track 1 and the second part is anchored in the center of this curved track 1 .

The two parts are connected by a connecting bar 6 mitein other. The movable on the curved track 1 portal part 29 of the loading crane 30 consists of two telescopic supports 4 , 4 ', each of which is placed on a wagon 3 , the wagons are connected to each other by a connec tion bracket 18 . The telescopic supports 4 , 4 'are bridged with a supporting beam 5 and mounted on the wagons 3 with rotary bearings 25 so as to be rotatable about their longitudinal axis.

In the center of the curved track 1 , a center car 2 is anchored to the ground with anchors 17 on both sides.

This center car 2 carries with a rotating part 16 the connec tion bar 6 and is connected to the center car 2 via a telescopic support 4 '' which is mounted with a rotary bearing 25 gela. The connecting beam 6 passes under the support beam 5 of the portal part 29 and is suspended from it.

At the free end of the connecting bar 6 , a cantilever arm 7 is mounted, which is provided with a spreader 9 , which is used for gripping containers and extends over the loading track 26 and the truck 31 with the containers 11 located thereon.

The cantilever arm 7 can be moved back and forth on the connecting bar 6 up to the vicinity of the center wagon 2 and can thus also the loading vehicle tracks 27 , the parking surfaces 24 and also stacked containers 19 in high storage areas or a ship loading 22 by methods in the travel directions 32 , 32 'of the loading crane 30 can be reached in a short way.

If a truck 14 arrives via the loading track 26 in the loading area of the loading crane 30 , the speed of the truck is reduced to 0.6 to 1 km / h.

In the case of a truck 31 intended for unloading, the boom arm 7 is brought with the spreader 9 over the container 11 to be unloaded and the loading crane 30 is lowered over all three telescopic supports 4 , 4 ', 4 ''until the spreader 9 is locked via the twistlocks. The loading crane 30 moves during this process at the same speed as the truck 31 and moves the container 11 , as soon as it is lifted from the truck 31 , with increased speed over the circular track 1 to the intended storage area 24 , the stacking warehouse 19 or until to a truck to be loaded 13 . In the same way, a container 11 is picked up from the parking area 24 or a truck 13 and placed on an empty truck. As a result of the very slow journey of the truck 14 , the two operations can be carried out in time until the following truck arrives in the loading area of the loading crane 30 .

The spreader 9 is equipped with diverging catching devices with which the placement on the container can be done quickly and easily. Furthermore, the spreader 9 is also provided with pivotable gripping tongs 10 with which interchangeable bodies and semitrailers 12 can also be reloaded.

To secure the loading crane 30 with respect to the electrical overhead line 15 of the loading track 26 , the outer parts of the crane are electrically connected to the track potential. In addition, the spreader 9 is insulated against electrical flashover on the surface, as a result of which a smaller safety distance from the electrical overhead line 15 can be maintained.

In addition, it is possible that the section of the electrical overhead line 15 located in the loading area of the loading crane 30 is switched during the loading operations by the network or can be switched off with an automatic monitoring device if the spreader 9 comes too close.

During the loading process with the loading crane 30 , the crane drive is controlled with a sensor and a computer in such a way that the loading crane 30 moves at the same speed as the truck 14 , with the position of the arm 7 on the connecting beam 6 also changing to the constantly changing Distances between the trucks 31 which is loaded or unloaded and adapted to the portal part 29 .

Only after a container 11 has been lifted off the truck 31 can the crane driver operate the loading crane 30 manually and move the container 11 to its destination at a different speed.

The crane driver has a good overview of the operation of the loading crane from the crane cab 8 attached to the portal part 29 , or even more favorably on the jib arm 7 .

The arrangement of the loading crane 30 is due to the use of a long connecting beam 6 which is open at the bottom and carries the jib arm 7 there and its anchoring on the center wagon 2 is kept very stable against tipping forces.

The wagons 3 of the portal part 29 traveling on the curved track 1 are equipped for driving with electric motors and the telescopic supports 4 , 4 'and the telescopic support 4 ''for the rotating part 16 are moved hydraulically, with the electrical and hydraulic supply from the center car 2 from done.

The center car 2 is on a track 20 in its anchoring position, which is connected to the main track of the Bahnan location.

The radius of the curved track 1 can be chosen as desired, depending on the available space and the intended handling volume, and in the case of very large loading stations, another portal part can support the connecting bar.

The round arch track 1 is either installed in its entirety or at one or more access points at the same level as the loading vehicle lane 27 so that the terrain can be effortlessly traveled by truck.

To increase the handling capacity, a further loading station 21 or several loading stations can be arranged next to one another, the parking spaces 24 and loading vehicle tracks 27 of adjacent loading cranes 30 can be reached.
