Turntable for rail vehicle transport wagons.

Patented in the German Empire on November 17, 1892.

The present invention relates to a transport device for railroad cars, which is used to transport goods in full-rail cars on secondary railways enable, i.e. without having to reload the goods in secondary railways beforehand.

Illustrated in the accompanying drawing:

Fig. Ι a side view of the transport device according to the present invention, partly in section.

Fig. 2 is a front view, also in part in section, from which it can be seen in what way the main railway carriage axis is on is determined by the carrier.

Fig. 3 is a top view.

Of course, to transport a 'z. B. two-axle full railway car also two the transport devices shown in the drawing necessary, each axis of the The railroad car rests on one of the same.

Because the equipment required to drive the freight wagons onto the transporter do not belong within the scope of the present invention, i.e. are assumed to be known, have the same were not taken into account in the drawing either.

The transporter essentially consists of two parts:

1. the turntable D, on which the solid railroad car axles rest, and

2. the main beam, which forms the actual transport trolley.

The former is rotatably connected to the latter by a peculiarly designed bolt E and thereby permits the concentric movement of the turntable D , which is fixed to the wheels of the freight wagon to be transported, to the actual transport wagon, insofar as the passage of the small secondary curves results in a radial position of the two transporters to each other required under the main railway carriage.

As can be seen from Fig. Ι of the accompanying drawing, the main beam connected to the wheels R consists only of two metal sheets α and α ^Λ , which are braced against each other by U-shaped sheets b and b ^{1 so that} a solid and sturdy support frame for the turntable D is created.

The turntable D, on the outer edges D ^{1 of} which the wheels R ^{1 of} the freight wagon are driven (Fig. 3), is connected to that support frame, as already mentioned, by the peculiarly designed bolt E. This bolt E is fixed by means of a square in a correspondingly designed hole of the turntable D, is rotatably mounted with a pin c in the lower wall of the sheet metal support α a ^x and bb ^l and is held in place by a split pin.

The turntable D can therefore be rotated with the bolt E on the sheet metal support.

The bolt E is also provided with two eyes at its upper end, which protrudes over the upper edge of the sheet metal support. In these eyes, the two locking brackets g and g ^{l are} through the bolts f and f ^l

attached. These two supports, which one on the side can be folded down, are fork-shaped at their upper end. If the freight wagon is now driven up, these two supports are erected and then grip with their fork-shaped ends around the axis of the freight wagon, which is then finally fixed by the double coulisse wedge h connected by means of screws. Another peculiar device of the transporter according to the present invention is the special design and mode of operation of the locking claws i with support k (FIG. 2). The same can be put back inwards on the turntable D after loosening the screw /, which is actuated by the crank m, before driving up. When the freight wagon is driven up, the claw i is pushed forward again, the same engaging over the rim of the wheel R ¹ . If you now tighten the screw / by means of the crank m , the wheel R ¹ on the turntable D is held in a completely safe and secure manner. A transporter according to the present invention has, as the same mainly from Sheet metal is assembled, a lighter weight than the transport devices, which are made entirely of cast steel. The present system also has the advantage of good storage of the cross members D, which have to accommodate the wheels of the wagons to be transported. In some older constructions, tenon fractures often occurred, which is the case with this one System is avoided as far as possible through the solid and appropriate storage. Finally, the new construction allows easy attachment of the Heberlein brakes. Pa te ν τ-Α ν SPRU c η: A turntable for railroad vehicle transport wagons, characterized by a bolt (E) which, fastened by means of its square part in the turntable, can rotate with the turntable around its lower round pin (C) in the transport wagon frame and at its upper end around Bolts (fxxnaf ¹ ) rotatable, carries two locking supports (g and g ') , which grip with their upper fork-shaped ends around the axis of the railroad car and fix the same in connection with a double coulisse wedge (h) .
