Definitions

  • the invention relates to a track switch, in particular to a track switch with a large radius, in which the tongue rails can be adjusted in two end positions by means of an adjusting device, in each of which a tongue tip rests on the associated stock rail, with a position securing device for securing the position on the tongue rails
  • the same is arranged, which has at least one multi-armed lever which engages on the tongue rails and can be pivoted about a fixed axis of rotation and is loaded by a force accumulator and which can be actuated by the tongue rails adjustable by the adjusting device, the line of action of the force of the force accumulator, in particular formed by a compression spring, in the two end positions of the lever on different sides of the pivot axis of the same.
  • the rails are bent by two trolleys, one of which is moved along a track parallel to the main track and the other along a track parallel to the secondary track. With these trolleys, the curved, continuous rails can be clamped in their respective bending position on each sleeper.
  • Such an arrangement is extremely complex and is also not usable for track switches in which the tongue rails are respectively applied to or lifted from the associated stock rail.
  • the invention aims at ensuring the correct position of the switch tongues in the intermediate areas of the switch or in the central area of the switch and thus the required minimum distance between the remote switch tongue and the stock rail.
  • the invention essentially consists in that the position securing device is arranged in an intermediate region of the length of the tongue rails, in particular in the central region thereof, that the end position of the lever, which determines the distance of the remote tongue rail from the cheek rail, by means of an interaction with the lever, Fixed, separate from the stock rail, optionally adjustable, stop is determined, and that the position securing device has two two-armed angle levers, one arm of which is articulated to a tongue rail and the other arm of which is supported against the energy accumulator.
  • the levers are held in the respective position of the position securing device by the energy accumulator, whereby the tongue rails are held in their correct position by the articulation of the tongue rails.
  • the correct position is determined by the stop and it is ensured even with great elasticity of the switch tongues by the selected position of the position securing device that the switch tongues lie in the correct position in the intermediate areas and in the central area, so that the maintenance of the free passage between the remote ones Tongue rail and the associated stock rail is guaranteed.
  • the angle levers are adjusted by the tongue rails overcoming the force of the energy accumulator via a tipping point, whereupon the energy accumulator acts in the other direction and presses the levers into the other end position, in which the tongue rails are again in the correct position.
  • the correct position of the tongue rails is determined by the respective end positions of the lever in that the end position of the lever which determines the distance of the remote tongue rail from the stock rail is determined by a fixed stop which interacts with the lever and which is separate and optionally adjustable from the stock rail . Due to the possible adjustability of the The correct position of the tongue rails in the intermediate areas or in the middle area can be set.
  • Each angle lever of the position securing device having two two-arm angle levers can be supported against a separate energy store, which in turn is supported against a stationary abutment.
  • Such a design of angle levers is known in principle from DE-AS 15 30 341.
  • the angle levers are not actuated by the tongue rails, which can be adjusted by a separate adjusting device, but these angle levers themselves form the arbitrarily actuable adjusting device for the switch, which acts on the tongue tips of the tongue rails.
  • the tip of the tongue is adjusted by electromagnets that engage these angle levers.
  • the arms of the two angle levers can also be supported against a single common energy store.
  • both angle levers swivel in different directions.
  • the support points of the energy accumulator thus move in opposite directions.
  • the angles which include the direction of force of the energy accumulator with the arms of the two angle levers acting on the energy accumulator are increased in the end positions thereof, and the two angle levers are therefore held in their end positions with greater certainty.
  • This increased safety is essential if the tongue rails are to be held in their position in an intermediate area exclusively by the angle levers.
  • the angle levers must be arranged between the tracks, since they interact with one another via the spring-loaded mechanism. If, on the other hand, each angle lever is supported on a stationary abutment by a separate energy store, the angle levers can also be arranged on both sides of the same outside the track.
  • the switch can also be changed by a clamp fastener located in the tip area of the tongue rails and the correct position of the tongue rail is now set in one or more intermediate areas, the position securing device being automatically changed by the tongue rails itself, without the need for a separate actuating device.
  • Fig. 1 shows a plan view of the track switch
  • Fig. 2 and 3 show different designs of the position securing device on a larger scale in plan view.
  • Fig. 1 the entire switch area is shown in plan view. 1 and 2 are the two stock rails, 3 and 4 are the two tongue rails.
  • tongue area A depending on the position of the switch, either the tongue tip of the tongue rail 3 is in contact with the stock rail 1 or the tongue tip of the tongue rail 4 is in contact with the stock rail 2.
  • the switch is adjusted in the usual way by an adjusting device which forms a clamp closure and is not shown in the drawing and which acts on the tongue rails 3 and 4 in the tongue area A. Due to the elasticity of the switch rails, the position of the switch rails in the intermediate areas of the switch is not secured for switches with a large radius.
  • a position securing device B which determines the position of the tongue rails in this area, is therefore arranged in an intermediate region or in the middle region of the position of the switch or the tongue rails.
  • This position securing device B is shown in Fig. 2 on a larger scale.
  • the stock rails are again labeled 1 and 2 and the tongue rails 3 and 4.
  • a plate 5 is fixed to the sleepers.
  • This plate carries pivot axes 6, on which angle levers 7 and 8 are pivotally attached.
  • the ends of the arms 9 and 10 are articulated on the tongue rails via length-adjustable rods 11.
  • the arms 12 and 13 are supported against each other by an energy accumulator 14 formed by a compression spring.
  • the tongue rail 4 lies away from the stock rail 2, the passage between the stock rail 2 and the tongue rail 4 being designated by 15.
  • the tongue tip of the tongue rail 3 lies against the stock rail 1.
  • the end position of the angle lever 8, which determines the largest passage 15 between the stock rail 2 and the tongue rail 4 is determined by a stop 16.
  • the end position of the angle lever 7 is determined in an analogous manner by a stop 17.
  • the axes 6 and the stops 16 and 17 are fixed in place on the plate 5, which in turn is attached to the sleepers, not shown.
  • the narrowest passage 15 between the stock rail 2 and the tongue rail 4 is limited by the angle levers 7 and 8 in cooperation with the energy accumulator 14 and on the guarantee this narrowest passage is important so that the wheel flanges of the edges can pass over the stock rails 1 and 2 without hindrance.
  • the ends or articulation points 18 and 19 of the arms 12 and 13 move in opposite directions.
  • the angle ⁇ which includes the line of action 20 of the force of the energy accumulator 14 with the arms 12 and 13, is substantially greater than if the energy accumulator 14 were supported in a stationary manner, and it becomes the end position of the angle levers 7 and 8 which define the passage 15 determined between stock rail and tongue rail, adhered to with the greatest possible certainty.
  • 21 is a telescopic tube which prevents the compression spring 14 forming the energy accumulator from buckling.
  • the position of the tongue rails 3 and 4 relative to the stock rails 1 and 2 is again determined by angle levers 7 and 8.
  • the arms 9 and 10 engage at 23 on the tongue rails 3 and 4 via adjustable rods 22.
  • Force accumulators 24 engage arms 12 and 13 again. However, these energy stores 24 are supported here against abutments 27 fixed on plates 25 which are fastened to the sleepers 26.
  • Both tongue rails can be connected to one another by a rod 30, which may be adjustable in length. If one of the tongue rails 3 or 4 abuts a stock rail 1 or 2 in this area, the stops 29 can be replaced by the connecting rod 30.
  • the plates 25 with the angle levers 7 and 8 are arranged outside the track on both sides of the same. These plates 25 with the angle levers 7 and 8 can also be arranged between the tracks.
