DE595255C - Procedure on suspension railways for picking up and setting down loads - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to an improvement in the method for picking up and setting down load containers by moving cranes on suspension railways according to ¹ patent 518 644. According to patent j; 18 644, the loads brought up on a standway and to be picked up are brought under the suspension railway by means of a work process that is regularly repeated when a moving suspension system is approached, with the help of existing facilities (wagon locks) in such a way that they are gripped by the suspension systems and taken away. In the same way, the undercarriages required to set down the load are provided under the suspension railway.

“The invention enables the wagon locks that the funicular wagons up to the Bring a place where the load is to be picked up and set down, saved.

The novelty of the invention is that the suspension of the suspension railway when gripping ^{1 of} the load of the foremost wagon or home setting down the load on the ag foremost undercarriage at the same time also take the next undercarriage coupled with it to the pick-up or depositing point. The foremost undercarriage is then uncoupled there so that it continues to run freely in the further course of the picking up and setting down process. The clutch is released automatically in a manner known per se, for. B. by 'a stop.

In the drawing, the invention is shown as an example, namely show:

Fig. Ι to 3 the receiving and settling point in each a side view and in Layout,

Fig. 4 the domes between the funicular car and between the load containers and the suspended railway car in an enlarged view Scale in side view and

Fig. S in front view.

The undercarriage α with the load or the load container h coming from the station I, for example from the filling station, are connected by an automatically acting coupling device c of a known type (Fig. 4) and run either with a natural gradient or pushed by a locomotive or moved in some other way up to Pick-up point y, the one under the suspension railway! d lies where the load is gripped by the traveling gear e and initially taken along with the undercarriage «up to point ζ. The funicular wagon pulls the attached wagon (s) with it until the next one has arrived at pick-up point y. Then by hand or besiser by a fixed stop /

Claims (3)

(Fig. 4) the coupling is released automatically, "so that the first car is pulled on by the moving suspension e alone, while the following stand-by wagons stop. So that this standstill always takes place at a certain point, there is a small incline g or a rail brake or something similar; provide an obstacle. Between the pick-up point y and the point 2, the suspension railway and the stand railway run almost or completely parallel in height or without the undercarriage α. If the load b and the undercarriage α are to be separated, the undercarriage runs from point ζ advantageously with a natural gradient over a hairpin h or a loop to the other side of the suspension railway , in order to receive a load b arriving there with the suspension railway. In order to create the necessary gradient for the funicular, lä ß “the funicular track between the pick-up point y and the point z, where the undercarriage α is taken along by the suspension railway, rise accordingly. The suspension railway, on the other hand, will be lowered so far in front of the point ^ that is approximately between χ and y that the coupling between the load b and the traveling gear e does not take place until point y. However, instead of this or in connection with reducing the height distance, the driving lugs /, k of the hangers can be raised by a guide rail t or the like, as shown in Fig. 4, so far that they are above the loads b behind them sweep away without coupling. The loading of the load on the undercarriage α is reversed in a very similar manner. The undercarriage «rolls best automatically with a natural gradient to the dropping point a, where it is stopped by a level n, similar to the pick-up part y. The suspension railway track is lowered so far at this point that the load b touches the undercarriage a by means of hooks or stops and pushes it over the set-down point u. From the drop-off point u to the point ν, the suspension railway and standway track II then run on the same gradient at such a close vertical distance that the load b detach itself from the suspension e and with it. the undercarriage α can lead. From the point ν where this process has taken place, the suspension railway track can then rise again, so that a recoupling is now impossible. The individual stand rail cars then automatically couple themselves together again at point w to form a train in order to be fed to the loading or unloading point.
