Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch for the station track system of a cable conveyor system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the switches arranged in station track systems allow vehicles to be inserted into and out of the system or cable conveyor system.
  • the entry can be carried out either from a parking track or, in the case of a middle station, from a further cable conveyor line from which the vehicles are previously discharged.
  • the track of the branch track is provided with a movable track section designed as a tongue, while the track of the main track is generally continuous.
  • the driving position of the tongue i.e. if the branch track is to be driven on
  • the free end of the tongue lies on the rail of the main track.
  • the tongue with its free end, has the task of lifting the wheels of the vehicles to be guided onto the branch track to such an extent that the rails of the main track can be run over by the flanks or wheel flanges of these wheels.
  • a disadvantage of this switch is that the running surfaces of the tongue end form a shoulder relative to the running surfaces of the running rail on which it rests. Apart from that the driving speed is affected when driving over this paragraph, bumps or bumps occur in the chassis of the vehicle, which are fundamentally undesirable because they accelerate the wear. In the case of passenger trains in which the switch tongue has to be run over even when the cabins are loaded, such shocks also impair the driving comfort of the passengers. Finally, there is also a risk of derailment, since a guide rail stabilizing the vehicle is usually missing in the corresponding area of the switch and the blows can therefore trigger pendulum movements of the vehicle.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a switch which allows the vehicles to run smoothly while avoiding the risk of derailment.
  • the movable sections of the travel rails come to lie in recesses which are formed between the stationary sections of the travel rails which end at a distance from one another.
  • the movable sections can therefore lie at least in their driving positions in the plane which is defined by the stationary sections, which enables the vehicles to run smoothly.
  • the use of connecting means also ensures that when one of the movable sections leaves the driving position corresponding to a first switch position, the other movable section is forcibly moved to the other switch position driving position.
  • the movement of the movable sections takes place in the plane defined by the stationary sections, it being expedient to simplify the guidance of the movable sections in order to pivot them.
  • each track has a guide rail, which guide rails run in an upwardly offset plane with respect to the travel rails, with the a guide rail crossing one rail has a section which is movable in the plane between two positions, preferably a tongue, while the other guide rail is continuous.
  • means are provided in order to lock at least the movable rail section of the branch track having a curvature in the driving position, in order to prevent the movement of the vehicles intercept the resulting forces as immediately as possible, so that the actuating means are relieved or no restraining forces have to be applied.
  • a very cost-effective embodiment of the locking means is obtained if, as provided according to the invention, they are self-acting, in such a way that they not only automatically assume the locking position, but also leave the locking position automatically under the influence of a switching force acting on the actuating side.
  • the switch of the station track system of a cable conveyor system shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a straight main track 1 and a curved branch track 2.
  • the curved branch track serves for the normal circulation of the vehicles on the cable conveyor route, while the main track serves a parking route.
  • Each of the tracks 1 and 2 comprises a running rail 3 or 4, and a guiding rail 5 or 6, the guiding rails and the guiding rails defining planes parallel to one another, of which the guiding rail plane runs above the running rail plane.
  • the rails 3 and 4 comprise three stationary sections 7, 8 and 9, the ends 7a, 8a and 9a of which are spaced apart.
  • the rails 3 and 4 include movable sections 10 and 11, which can be pivoted about axes 12 and 13 extending at right angles to the switch plane between a driving position and a rest position. In the driving position shown in FIG. 1, the curved movable section 11 connects the ends 8a and 9a of the stationary sections 8 and 9 to one another, while in the driving position shown in FIG.
  • the straight movable section 10 connects the ends 8a and 7a of the stationary sections Sections 8 and 7 interconnected.
  • the rest position of the straight movable section 10 is from FIG. 1 and the rest position of the curved movable section 11 from FIG. 2 evident.
  • the movable sections 10 and 11 are movable in the plane defined by the stationary sections 7, 8 and 9.
  • the guide rail 6 crossing the travel rail 3 has a section 15 designed as a tongue and pivotable about an axis 14 running perpendicular to the plane of the guide rails.
  • the section 15 can be pivoted from a driving position shown in FIG. 1, in which its free end 15a bears against the guide rail 5, into a rest position shown in FIG. 2, in which it releases the main track.
  • the movable sections 10, 11 and 15 can be moved together by means of an actuating rod 16 between the two positions and are connected to one another for the common movement as follows:
  • the actuating rod 16 which can be moved by hand or by a motor, engages an arm 19 of a three-armed lever, generally designated 17, which is pivotably mounted at 18 and which has the further arms 20 and 21.
  • the arm 20 is connected via a link 22 at 23 to the movable rail section 11 and together with this link forms a knee joint.
  • the arm 21 is connected via a handlebar 24 to the arm 25 of a two-armed lever 26, which engages via an arm 27 and a handlebar 28 at 29 on the movable rail section 10, arm 27 and handlebar 28 in turn forming a knee joint.
  • the lever 26, which is also about the pivot axis 14 of the guide slide NEN section 15 is pivotable, is in a torsionally rigid connection with the latter via further connecting means indicated at 27b.
  • connection of the movable sections 10, 11 and 15 is selected in such a way that the movable sections 11 and 15 move together into the driving position when the moving section 10 is moved from the driving position into the rest position.
  • the travel positions of the sections 10 and 11 are defined by stops 30a which are formed by bridge parts 30 which are rigidly fastened to the ends of the movable track sections 10 and 11. While the effect of the bridge parts 30 is discussed further below, the stops 30a projecting laterally over these sections interact with the stationary sections 7, 8 and 9, 8 to be connected in each case.
  • the driving position of section 15 is also expediently defined, namely in that it is braced against the guide rail 5. This can be achieved without aids in that the section 15 abuts the guide rail 5 as soon as the knee joint 20, 22 has reached the extended position.
  • the positions of the arms 20 and 27, which correspond to the travel positions of the sections 10 and 11, are assigned stops 20a and 27a. Since these stops 20a and 27a based on the rest positions of the knee joints 20, 22 and 27, 28 involved beyond the stretched positions prevent the same pivoting movements of the movable sections 10 and 11 in the direction of the rest position under the influence of lateral forces acting on these sections. Specifically, the stop 20a prevents the section 11 from pivoting counterclockwise under the influence of the centrifugal force exerted on this section by a vehicle traveling the distance between the pivot axis 13 and the end 9a. Of course, the stops 30a prevent the section 11 from pivoting clockwise when driving the distance between the end 8a and the pivot axis 13. In any case, the knee joints together with the stops form self-acting locking means which can only be released by moving the actuation stands 16.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 denotes the hanger of a vehicle, which is supported on the running rail 4, or the running rail 3, via a running gear represented by an impeller 41.
  • the hanger 40 has a cantilever 42, at the free end of which a guide wheel 43 is rotatably mounted about an axis parallel to the impeller axis, which engages in the guide rail 6, which is expediently designed as a U-profile.
  • the guide rail prevents pendulum movements of the hanger about its longitudinal axis on both sides.
  • the curved hold-down rail 46 which is shown in FIG Fig. 2 is omitted, is shown in dash-dotted lines in Fig. 1 and, as can be seen, forms a further rail of the branch track 2.
  • the hold-down rail ensures that the impeller 41 is limited by its flanks 41a on both sides (Fig. 5a) , recessed tread 41b remains on the running rail 4.
  • the hold-down rail could have an approximately same radius of curvature as the running rail 4.
  • FIG. 4 With 47 another hold-down rail is designated, which cooperates with a friction shoe 48 which is attached to the chassis.
  • the further hold-down rail 47 is straight and, as can be seen in FIG. 2 (omitted in FIG. 1 for the sake of clarity), as part of the main track 1 leading to the parking track and replaces the hold-down rail 46 on it with a corresponding effect.
  • each bridge part 30 has a running surface 30b which is offset downwards with respect to the highest point of the running rail profile by an amount which is the difference in radius between the lowest point of the profile of the running surface 41b and corresponds to the rim 30b of the impeller. If an impeller 41 passes over the joint between two track sections, which are represented in FIG. 5b by track sections 9 and 11, the tread 30b supports the impeller via its flank 41a.
  • bridge parts 30 with running surfaces 30b can be provided for both flanks of the impeller, as shown in FIGS Figures 1 and 2 can be seen.
  • the switch according to the invention not only avoids any risk of derailment, but also ensures that the vehicles run smoothly.
  • the switch according to the invention can also be designed such that the guide rail lies on the deflecting side of the travel rail, or has a smaller radius of curvature in the curved branch track compared to the latter. This is necessary if the vehicles pass through the station track system with the hanger turned inwards.
  • the switch according to the invention can be driven in both directions regardless of the position of the guide rail.
