Description
La présente invention est relative à un dispositif de sustentation et de guidage de véhicules ferroviaires, équipé d'au moins quatre roues montées sur un support destiné à être assujetti à la caisse d'un véhicule, au voisinage d'une extrémité de cette caisse et constitué d'une traverse maintenue perpendiculaire au plan vertical contenant l'axe longitudinal du véhicule ainsi que de deux longerons qui, dans la position de service, s'étendent dans le sens longitudinal de la caisse, de part et d'autre du plan vertical susdit, en étant éventuellement reliés l'un à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'une tringle montée sur des rotules et qui portent chacun au moins deux roues.The present invention relates to a device for supporting and guiding railway vehicles, equipped with at least four wheels mounted on a support intended to be secured to the body of a vehicle, in the vicinity of one end of this body and consisting of a crosspiece held perpendicular to the vertical plane containing the longitudinal axis of the vehicle as well as two longitudinal members which, in the service position, extend in the longitudinal direction of the body, on either side of the vertical plane aforementioned, possibly being connected to one another by means of a rod mounted on ball joints and which each carry at least two wheels.
On connait un grand nombre de dispositifs de sustentation et de guidage de véhicules ferroviaires visant à concilier au mieux la stabilité dynamique de ces véhicules roulant sur des voies ou rails rectilignes et leur facilité d'inscription dans les courbes de ces voies ou rails.A large number of lift and guide devices for rail vehicles are known, aiming to best reconcile the dynamic stability of these vehicles traveling on straight tracks or rails and their ease of writing into the curves of these tracks or rails.
Ainsi, le brevet américain 3,066,617 décrit un dispositif de sustentation pour véhicule ferroviaire qui comprend principalement une paire de longerons mobiles pouvant pivoter dans un plan sensiblement horizontal. Ces longerons sont susceptibles d'être guidés par les rails, tout en restant parallèles l'un à l'autre et de prendre une inclinaison dans un plan sensiblement vertical grâce à une traverse qui les relie transversalement.Thus, American patent 3,066,617 describes a lifting device for a railway vehicle which mainly comprises a pair of mobile longitudinal members which can pivot in a substantially horizontal plane. These longitudinal members are capable of being guided by the rails, while remaining parallel to one another and of taking an inclination in a substantially vertical plane thanks to a crosspiece which connects them transversely.
Le principal inconvénient de ce dispositif connu, consiste en ce que l'inclinaison des deux longerons susdits, en vue de franchir les inégalités de la voie, entraine une déformation des éléments constitutifs du dispositif susdit et en particulier une torsion de la traverse.The main drawback of this known device consists in that the inclination of the two aforementioned beams, in order to cross the unevenness of the track, causes a deformation of the constituent elements of the above device and in particular a twist of the cross-member.
En outre, les sollicitations et déformations du dispositif donnent lieu à un déchargement des roues, qui accroît les risques de déraillement.In addition, the stresses and deformations of the device give rise to unloading of the wheels, which increases the risk of derailment.
Comme la déformation interne de chacun des éléments du dispositif doit rester inférieur à celle correspondant à la limite d'élasticité; il est évident que l'aptitude du dispositif à franchir les inégalités est limitée . La conception et la construction sont difficiles à réaliser en raison des risques de concentrations de contraintes dans la traverse. Pour éviter autant que possible les déformations permanentes et en particulier celles résultant de la torsion de la traverse commune, ces dispositifs connus doivent présenter un empattement suffisant pour réduire les déformations angulaires lors du franchissement d'une inégalité donnée . Ceci rend ces dispositifs connus encombrants.As the internal deformation of each of the elements of the device must remain less than that corresponding to the elastic limit; it is obvious that the device's ability to overcome inequalities is limited. Design and construction are difficult to carry out due to the risk of stress concentrations in the sleeper. To avoid permanent deformations as much as possible and in particular those resulting from the torsion of the common cross-member, these known devices must have a sufficient wheelbase to reduce angular deformations when crossing a given inequality. This makes these known devices bulky.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients susdits. Elle a pour objet un dispositif de sustentation et de guidage d'un véhicule ferroviaire, équipé d'au moins quatre roues montées sur un support destiné à être assujetti à la caisse du véhicule, au voisinage d'une extrémité de cette caisse, et constitué d'une traverse maintenue perpendiculaire au plan vertical contenant l'axe longitudinal du véhicule ainsi que de deux longerons qui, dans la position de service, s'étendent dans le sens longitudinal de la caisse, de part et d'autre du plan vertical susdit, en étant éventuellement relié l'un à l'autre par l'intermédiaire dune tringle montée sur des rotules et qui portent chacun au moins deux roues, ce dispositif étant essentiellement caractérisé en ce qu'il présente des moyens par lesquels lesdits longerons sont articulés à la traverse commune de manière à permettre aux roues portées par les longerons de s'orienter pour suivre les courbures de la voie et de se mouvoir pour en franchir les inégalités.The present invention aims to remedy the above drawbacks. It relates to a lifting and guiding device for a railway vehicle, equipped with at least four wheels mounted on a support intended to be secured to the vehicle body, in the vicinity of one end of this body, and constituted of a crosspiece held perpendicular to the vertical plane containing the longitudinal axis of the vehicle as well as of two side rails which, in the service position, extend in the longitudinal direction of the body, on either side of the above-mentioned vertical plane , optionally being connected to each other by means of a rod mounted on ball joints and which each carry at least two wheels, this device being essentially characterized in that it has means by which said longitudinal members are articulated to the common cross member so as to allow the wheels carried by the longitudinal members to orient themselves to follow the curvatures of the track and to move in order to overcome the inequalities.
Les longerons sont montés sur des moyens d'articulation portés par la traverse, de façon à pouvoir subir un mouvement de pivotement autour d'axes sensiblement verticaux, dans la position de service du dispositif et, dans une forme de réalisation particulière du dispositif suivant l'invention, ces moyens d'articulation permettent à ces longerons de prendre chacun une certaine inclinaison dans un plan sensiblement vertical, dans la position de service du dispositif.The longitudinal members are mounted on articulation means carried by the cross member, so as to be able to undergo a pivoting movement around substantially vertical axes, in the service position of the device and, in a particular embodiment of the device according to the invention. invention, these articulation means allow these beams to each take a certain inclination in a substantially vertical plane, in the service position of the device.
Selon une particularité de l'invention, les moyens par lesquels les longerons sont articulés à la traverse commune, sont des pivots susceptibles de prendre une certaine inclinaison dans un plan sensiblement vertical, dans la position de service du dispositif.According to a feature of the invention, the means by which the side members are articulated to the common cross member, are pivots capable of taking a certain inclination in a substantially vertical plane, in the service position of the device.
Selon une autre particularité de l'invention, les pivots des longerons sont susceptibles de pivoter autour d'un axe sensiblement parallèle à l'axe de la traverse, dans la position de service du dispositif.According to another feature of the invention, the pivots of the side members are capable of pivoting about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the cross-member, in the service position of the device.
Dans une forme de réalisation particulière, les longerons sont montés sur des pivots reliés entre eux par un palonnier qui est articulé à ces pivots par des rotules et qui est solidaire de la traverse par un pivot sensiblement vertical dans la position de service du dispositif ou par une rotule.In a particular embodiment, the side members are mounted on pivots connected together by a lifter which is articulated to these pivots by ball joints and which is secured to the cross member by a substantially vertical pivot in the service position of the device or by a ball joint.
Les longerons sont avantageusement montée sur des pivots reliés entre eux par un palonnier et reliés à la traverse commune par l'intermédiaire de rotules de manière à permettre à ces longerons de pivoter également autour de leur axe longitudinal.The longitudinal members are advantageously mounted on pivots connected together by a lifting beam and connected to the common crossmember by means of ball joints so as to allow these longitudinal members to also pivot around their longitudinal axis.
Dans une autre forme de réalisation particulière, la traverse est divisée en au moins deux parties pouvant pivoter l'une par rapport à l'autre autour de l'axe longitudinal de ladite traverse.In another particular embodiment, the crosspiece is divided into at least two parts which can pivot relative to one another around the longitudinal axis of said crosspiece.
Dans une forme préférée de réalisation du dispositif suivant l'invention, les longerons sont chacun, d'une part, articulés à la traverse par une première rotule portée par ladite traverse et d'autre part, reliés par une deuxième rotule à un palonnier, qui est solidaire de la traverse par un pivot sensiblement vertical dans la position de service du dispositif ou par une troisième rotule.In a preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention, the side members are each, on the one hand, articulated to the cross member by a first ball joint carried by said cross member and, on the other hand, connected by a second ball joint to a lifting beam, which is secured to the crosspiece by a substantially vertical pivot in the service position of the device or by a third ball joint.

Dans ces différentes figures les mêmes notations de référence désignent des éléments analogues.In these different figures, the same reference notations designate similar elements.
Dans une première forme de réalisation, le dispositif de sustentation etde guidage d'un véhicule ferroviaire, schématisé aux figures 1 à 4, comporte une première paire de roues 1 de grand diamètre et une seconde paire de roues 2 de petit diamètre montées sur un support destiné à être assujetti à une caisse, désignée dans son ensemble par la notation de référence 3 d'un véhicule ferroviaire au voisinage d'une extrémité 3' de cette caisse 3, dont le plancher 4 est montré en traits mixtes aux figures 1 à 3.In a first embodiment, the lifting and guiding device of a railway vehicle, shown diagrammatically in FIGS. 1 to 4, comprises a first pair of
Le support susdit comprend deux longerons 5 qui, dans la position de service du dispositif, s'étendent dans le sens longitudinal de la caisse 3, c'est-à-dire dans le sens de l'axe longitudinal X-X', de part et d'autre du plan vertical contenant cet axe longitudinal X-X'. Les longerons 5 ont une forme telle que les plans des roues 1 et 2 portées par chacun d'eux, sont contenus dans un même plan sensiblement vertical, quelle que soit l'orientation desdits longerons.The aforementioned support comprises two
Comme on le voit aux figures 1, 3 et 4, les roues 1 de grand diamètre qui constituent des roues porteuses éventuellement motorisées, sont montées sur le côté extérieur au voisinage d'une extrémité 5' du longeron 5, tandis que les roues de petit diamètre 2 qui sont des roues de guidage, sont montées dans une fourche 5" prévue à l'extrémité opposée des longerons. Les parties 5' et 5" des longerons sont solidaires d'une partie intermédiaire oblique 5'" de ceux-ci.As can be seen in FIGS. 1, 3 and 4, the
Il est évident que les longerons 5 peuvent présenter une forme différente de celle montrée aux figures 1, 3 et 4 et être par exemple rectilignes. Dans ce dernier cas, les roues 1 et 2 sont montées du même côté des longerons 5. De même, les roues 1 et 2 peuvent être de même diamètre.It is obvious that the
En service, les roues sont supportées par des voies ou des rails schématisés par des lignes 6.In service, the wheels are supported by tracks or rails shown diagrammatically by
Chaque longeron 5 est articulé en 7 à une traverse désignée dans son ensemble par la notation de référence 8, de telle manière que les longerons 5 puissent, d'une part, pivoter dans le sens des flèches Y (voir figure 1) et, d'autre part, s'incliner dans le sens des flèches Z (voir figure 2). Ainsi, les longerons 5 sont montés sur des pivots 9 portés par des bossages latéraux 10 de la traverse 8. Comme on le voit à la figure 5, les pivots 9 peuvent s'incliner dans un plan sensiblement vertical autour d'axes 11 parallèles à l'axe longitudinal de la traverse 8, de façon que les longerons 5 puissent eux-mêmes s'incliner dans le sens des flèches Z. Par ailleurs, les pivots 9 permettent également un pivotement des longerons 5 dans le sens des flèches Y. Les mouvements de pivotement et d'inclinaison des longerons 5 par rapport à la traverse 8, permettent une orientation correcte des roues 1 et 2 dans les courbes de la voie 6 (voir figure 3), et assurent un contact permanent entre les roues 1, 2 et la voie 6, quelles que soient les variations de niveaux des files de rails 6.Each
Les pivots 9 peuvent être avantageusement remplacés par une rotule qui, en plus des mouvements de pivotement dans le sens des flèches Y et d'inclinaison dans le sens des flèches Z, permettent en outré, un pivotement des longerons 5 autour de leur axe longitudinal.The
Comme on le voit,aux figures 1 à 5, les longerons s'étendent en dessous de la traverse 8.As can be seen, in FIGS. 1 to 5, the longitudinal members extend below the
Comme on le voit aux figures 1 et 3, la tringle 12 portant les rotules 13 est reliée à des pattes 14 solidaires des longerons 5.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 3, the
La tringle 12 prend une position horizontale, lorsque les files de rails 6 sont au même niveau. Dans les parties de voie rectilignes et de même niveau, cette tringle s'étend perpendiculairement aux deux longerons 5. Lorsque la voie 6 prend une courbure tout en restant à un même niveau, cette tringle 12 prend une position oblique par rapport aux longerons 5. Dans les parties de voie 6 dont les niveaux varient, la tringle 12 prendra des positions inclinées par rapport à l'horizontale. Diverses positions de la tringle 12 sont montrées en trait plein et en traits mixtes à la figure 4.The
Comme montré aux figures 1 et 3, le pivot 9 de chaque longeron 5 est monté sur ce longeron 5 entre les axes des roues 1, 2 prévues aux extrémités opposées de ce longeron, de sorte que les longerons 5 constituent en fait des leviers pouvant à la fois pivoter et s'incliner par rapport à la traverse 8.As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the
Comme on le voit à la figure 5, les pivots 9 des longerons 5 sont articulés à une extrémité autour des axes 11 solidaires de la traverse 8, tandis qu'à leur extrémité opposée ils sont articulés par des rotules 15 à un palonnier 16, présentant un pivot vertical 17 solidaire de la traverse 8. Ce palonnier 16 maintient les axes 18 des pivots 9 des longerons 5 dans des plans sensiblement verticaux tout en leur permettant de s'incliner dans ces plans.As can be seen in FIG. 5, the
A chacune de ses extrémités, la traverse 8 est pourvue d'un bossage latéral 19 qui sert de point d'appui à des moyens pour relier la traverse 8 au plancher 4 de la caisse 3. Ces moyens comprennent un ressort à boudin 20 dont une extrémité prend appui sur le bossage latéral 19 et dont l'extrémité opposée prend appui sur le plancher 4 de la caisse 3. Ces moyens comprennent aussi une tige 21 munie à l'une de ses extrémités d'une première rotule 22 solidaire de la traverse 8 et à son extrémité opposée d'une seconde rotule 23 solidaire d'une patte 24 fixée au plancher 4 de la caisse 3.At each of its ends, the
Ces moyens permettent un déplacement latéral dans le sens des flèches W de la traverse8 par rapport à la caisse 3. Ce déplacement latéral est limité par au moins une butée 25 portée par la traverse 8 et pouvant venir en contact avec une pièce 26 solidaire de la caisse 3. Quant à la compression des ressorts à boudin 20, elle est limitée par des butées 27 qui peuvent venir en contact avec la traverse 8 ou une pièce d'appui 28 solidaire de cette traverse 8.These means allow lateral movement in the direction of the arrows W of the
Les moyens de liaison de la traverse 8 à la caisse 3 du véhicule peuvent comporter des amortisseurs non représentés sur les dessins.The means of connection of the
Le dispositif de sustentation et de guidage représenté aux figures 1 à 3 est motorisé en reliant individuellement chaque roue de grand diamètre 1 à un ensemble moto-réducteur monobloc 29 solidaire du longeron 5, la roue étant calée sur l'arbre de sortie 30 de cet ensemble.The lift and guide device shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is motorized by individually connecting each
Dans une seconde forme de réalisation de l'invention montrée aux figures 6 et 7, la traverse 8 comporte deux pièces 31 sensiblement en forme de U, qui peuvent s'incliner l'une par rapport à l'autre autour d'une barre 32 suivant les flèches Z (voir figure 7), la barre 32 reliant entre elles les bases des pièces 31 en forme de U. Des longerons 5 portant chacun deux roues sont reliés aux pièces 31 par des pivots 9 solidaires de chaque pièce 31 et peuvent s'incliner avec ces pièces 31 dans le sens des flèches Z. Les longerons 5 peuvent également pivoter autour de ces pivots 9 dans le sens des flèches Y.In a second embodiment of the invention shown in Figures 6 and 7, the
Des ressorts à boudin 20 assurent une liaison élastique entre chaque pièce 31 de la traverse et le plancher 4 de la caisse 3 du véhicule.Coil springs 20 provide an elastic connection between each
Dans la forme de réalisation décrite ci-avant, les appuis des ressorts à boudin 20 sont alignés avec le point de fixation du pivot 9 sur chaque pièce 31, lorsque les axes longitudinaux des longerons 5, en position de service du dispositif sur une partie de voie sans dénivellation, sont contenus dans un plan sensiblement horizontal. Cependant, pour des raisons constructives, les appuis peuvent également être déportés par rapport à la ligne des pivots.In the embodiment described above, the supports of the coil springs 20 are aligned with the point of attachment of the
Comme indiqué plus haut, la tringle 12 relie les longerons 5 entre eux par des rotules 13 et assure un couplage des mouvements de ces longerons 5.As indicated above, the
Comme dans la première forme de réalisation, une tige munie à l'une de ses extrémités d'une rotule 22 solidaire de chaque pièce 31 de la traverse 8 est fixée, à son extrémité opposée, au plancher 4 de la caisse par une seconde rotule 23.As in the first embodiment, a rod provided at one of its ends with a ball joint 22 integral with each
Le dispositif de sustentation et de guidage qui fait l'objet de la présente invention peut être muni d'équipements auxiliaires, tels que moteurs, freins à disques, freins à patin magnétique sur rails, butée anti-déraillements, etc.The lifting and guiding device which is the subject of the present invention can be provided with auxiliary equipment, such as motors, disc brakes, brakes with magnetic pad on rails, anti-derailment stop, etc.
Le dispositif de sustentation et de guidage, qui fait l'objet de la présente invention, offre de nombreux avantages. Il est de poids faible. Son encombrement réduit permet de diminuer la hauteur de plancher du véhicule par rapport à la voie, d'améliorer ainsi l'accessibilité dudit véhicule et de réduire le gabarit.The lifting and guiding device which is the subject of the present invention offers numerous advantages. He is of low weight. Its reduced size makes it possible to reduce the height of the vehicle floor relative to the track, thereby improving the accessibility of said vehicle and reducing the size.
Cinématiquement déformable, ce dispositif est de conception et de réalisation aisées, parce qu'il ne met en oeuvre que des pièces d'assemblage simples ou courantes.Kinematically deformable, this device is easy to design and produce, because it only uses simple or common assembly parts.
La cinématique du dispositif rend possibles des déformations sans apparition de contraintes ni efforts de rappel. De ce fait, la répartition des charges entre les roues n'est pratiquement pas influencée par les éléments extérieurs tels que le dévers, les inégalités de voie et les mouvements de caisse du véhicule. On améliore ainsi la stabilité dynamique et réduit les risques de déraillement. En outre, on engendre moins de bruit et moins d'usure des roues et des rails dans les courbes de la voie.The kinematics of the device makes it possible to deform without the appearance of constraints or restoring efforts. As a result, the distribution of loads between the wheels is practically not influenced by external elements such as cant, uneven lanes and body movements of the vehicle. This improves dynamic stability and reduces the risk of derailment. In addition, there is less noise and less wear on the wheels and rails in the curves of the track.
Il est évident que l'invention n'est pas limitée aux détails décrits plus haut pour réaliser le pivotement et l'inclinaison des longerons et que de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées à ces détails sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.It is obvious that the invention is not limited to the details described above for carrying out the pivoting and the inclination of the side members and that numerous modifications can be made to these details without departing from the scope of the invention.
Ainsi, les longerons 5 , au lieu d'être articulés chacun à la traverse B par un pivot 9 , peuvent être articulés à la traverse par une première rotule 33 portée par ladite traverse 8 et maintenus en place par une seconde rotule 34 fixée au palonnier 16, qui est solidaire de la traverse 8 par un pivot sensiblement vertical 17 dans la position de service du dispositif ou par une troisième rotule (fig.8 et 9).Thus, the
