Definitions

  • the subject of this invention is semi-trailers which can run on rails like railway wagons and on road like road vehicles, in which the transformation from rail vehicle to road vehicle or vice versa can be carried out without the intervention of cranes, platforms or other such systems.
  • this invention relates to improvements in bimodal semi-trailers according to Italian patent application 2124 / A86 of 23.10.1986 and European patent 87830373 (EP-A-0 265 398) of 22.10.1987 of the same applicant, with bogie removable road, which can travel on rails forming a convoy of railway bogies and on the road like normal road semi-trailers, respectively with only the railway boogie or only with the road bogie, or also with the two bogies if you don't want not extract the road bogie.
  • the embedding of the railway bogie is carried out by lifting with the suspension of the road bogie one end of the chassis of the semi-trailer and, afterwards, after having crossed the bogie of the bogie, by lowering the chassis with this same suspension until 'at insert the coupling pin of the semi-trailer into the bogie plate.
  • both the semi-trailers according to the above-mentioned patent applications namely the semi-trailers able to travel on rails without a road bogie
  • that the semi-trailers in which the exercise on rails is carried out while maintaining the road bogie in the raised position in order to be able to be inserted in a normal rail convoy partly formed by normal wagons fitted with special adapter bogies, also called shield bogies in this description, which must be applied to both the rear and the front part of the train of semi-trailers, which can be fitted quickly and do not require excessive handling.
  • the state of the art comprises a document DE-A-3 445 741 in which the railway bogie is provided with a coupling crosspiece 85 which couples by means of a counter-plate to the plate of the railway bogie, the coupling cross member being provided with two forks 88 which enter two tubular cavities 89 on the rear part of the semi-trailer, as do the forks 3 connected to the coupling cross member 1 of the present invention.
  • the coupling cross member 1 of the present invention does not connect to the rear part of the semi-trailer only using the forks 3, but thanks to a hook 1d which blocks the pivot 2 secured to the transverse beam SR3 of the semi-trailer trailer, in the groove 1c of the coupling crosspiece.
  • the attachment device of said document operates differently from the coupling cross member 1 of the present invention, because the forks 88 are arranged in a different attachment system produced by means of hooks 21 (fig. 12).
  • the main purpose of this invention is to improve the functionality of bimodal road-rail semi-trailers, with removable road bogie, and to provide means adaptable with the appropriate modifications to all other bimodal road-rail vehicles, included in the state of the art.
  • One of the particular aims is to provide in the above-mentioned bimodal wagons with removable road bogie a unique device allowing the rapid assembly of the intermediate rail bogies and the rear shield wagon, thanks to simple modifications.
  • Another important object is to provide a shield wagon to be mounted at the front end of the semi-trailer which can be mounted using the same front rail coupling device of the semi-trailers.
  • Another important aim is to provide means which make the coupling between the semi-trailers more secure and which intervene in the event of a break in the main coupling device.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide means which intervene automatically either to lower or to raise the chassis of the vehicle when passing from road traffic to rail traffic or vice versa.
  • the device which allows the mounting of the railway bogie CF to the rear end SR3 of the semi-trailer is formed by a special coupling cross member 1, also called here interface, which forms a groove 1c delimited by guide fins 1a inclined downwards, to the lower surface of which is attached a coupling pin R2 connected to the baffle R1 of the bogie by via a pivot R3 fitted with a die at the end.
  • the blocking of the interface 1 at the end of the semi-trailer is carried out after the embedding of a pivot 2 secured to the transverse beam SR3 of the semi-trailer in the groove 1c, by means of a hook 1d held in the position of closing by a lock 1b, and two forks 3 which thread into two tubular cavities 3a in the ribbed transverse beam SR3; the lock is operated by a handle 1e and remains in the hook release position when the notch 1f is introduced into the lateral edge of the interface.
  • the interface can rotate, around the axis of the pivot R3 of the bogie slider, by 180 °, to allow coupling of the bogie to the semi-trailer, from both ends.
  • the rod 9 is raised, which maintains the interface in the hooking position by pivoting it anti-clockwise around the pivot 9b, so as to unlock the cleat 9a of the integral fork 10. bogie.
  • the fork allows rotations of the interface of ⁇ 5 ° around the axis of the pivot R3 of the crapaudine, so as to be able to facilitate the coupling bogie / semitrailer and allow the normal rotations of the bogie during the railway operation.
  • anti-friction metal plates 4 The purpose of the anti-friction metal plates 4 is to reduce the grazing friction which occurs during the coupling of the interface to the semi-trailer; the sliding of the forks 3 in the tubular cavities 3a is facilitated by the presence of anti-friction metal plates 3b.
  • Blocking of the interface to the semi-trailer is subsequently ensured in an emergency by two pivots 8 in the ribbed beam SR3 which thread into two holes 1G with a vertical axis in the interface.
  • the rear shield wagon is illustrated in fig. 8 and derives from the intermediate bogie by applying to the interface a 1Pa chassis on one side, and on the other a 1Pc chassis to which the 1Pc / 1 pushers and the d device are connected. '' hooking to conventional wagons.
  • the chassis 1Pa is profiled so as to form an inclined plane 1Pb: the fins IPd are profiled so as to facilitate the introduction of the pivot 2 in the groove 1c while maintaining their surface at the same level as the upper wing of the profile 1Pa.
  • the interface formed by the coupling cross member 1 and by the additional frames 1Pa and 1Pc is held in a horizontal position by a device 13 which is connected to them, by means of a hook 13a which engages with a cleat 14 integral with the railway bogie .
  • This device 13 is provided with forks 13c which cause an additional blocking of the 1Pa chassis with the SRI chassis of the semi-trailer when the shield wagon is coupled to the semi-trailer: the operations of the device 13 are carried out using a steering wheel 13d and thanks to gears placed in a box 13b.
  • the front shield wagon is illustrated in fig. 11
  • the interface 1A differs from the rear wagon only by the coupling system of the interface 1A at the front end of the semi-trailer; indeed the interface 1A constituted by the coupling crosspieces 1, and by the profiles 1Ac on which the pushers 1Ac / 1 and the traction hook are mounted on one side, and on the other a device 13, similar to the device already mounted on the rear shield wagon, for additional blocking to the longitudinal members SR1 of the semi-trailer and as an alternative to a dowel 14 secured to the bogie, is provided with a hooking sphere 15 similar to the dowel SRA2 mounted on the rear beam SR3 of the semi-trailer, which constitutes with the cellar sphere SRA1 the attachment device SRA between the semi-trailers.
  • the attachment of the front shield wagon is carried out by connecting the cellar sphere SRA1 to the sphere 15 mounted on the shield wagon and successively blocking with the hooks 13c of the device 13 the chassis 1Ac of the shield wagon to the spar SR1.
  • the purpose of the plates 1Aa is to place the front part of the semi-trailer on the sphere 15: the closure 1Ab applied to the upper part of the chassis also contributes to this maneuver.
  • the chassis which constitute the interfaces of the shield wagons can rotate around the pivot R3 of the crapaudine so as to allow the coupling of each shield wagon to the semi-trailer, by either of its two ends.
  • the pneumatic installation which allows the lifting of the rear part of the semi-trailer thanks to the suspensions of the road bogie includes a limit switch 17 actuated by the anti-interlocking bar A1 when it pivots upwards to allow movement on rails.
  • This limit switch via the valves 19, causes the semi-trailer to be raised by means of the inflation of the cylinders SP of the suspensions of the road bogie: the air arrives through the valve 18 and the minimum lifting height is predetermined. by the limit stop valve 21.
  • the limit switch 16 actuated by the hook lock which blocks the interface 1 of the railway bogie with the semi-trailer actuates the valve 18 in deflecting the air which, in a state of rest, supplied the cylinders SP of the pneumatic suspensions of the wheels of the road bogie, in the cylinders CSA who must lift the wheel axles, inside the limit railway gauge.
  • safety hooks are inserted with which a limit switch 20 is associated which prevents, in the event that the latch 1b is removed during an accidental operation of the handle 1e, that the valve 18 feeds the cylinders SP of the suspensions through the valves 19, when the axles of the road bogie are raised and thus held by the mechanical latching device, causing rupture.
  • the axles of the road bogie must be removed from the safety hooks by an operation carried out by hand and the lock 1b must be extracted.
  • the diagram in fig. 14 illustrates the devices which cause the braking system of semi-trailers to intervene by lowering the air pressure.
  • Braking can be caused by the rupture of the hose 24 by the knife 25 or by the disengagement of the mechanical safety hooks which causes the valve 20a to open or by the operation of the handle 1e of the lock 1b.
