Definitions
- the invention relates to a combination of transport wagons, in particular low-floor wagons, each with rails and at least one crane device for loading containers at one end of the wagon according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- a crane device of the type mentioned at the outset has become known from US Pat. No. 3,719,296.
- the known construction shows a complicated mechanism which provides for gripping and lifting the container by means of six grippers at the top and by means of lateral devices at the bottom.
- GB-A 2 218 398 describes a railway wagon on which a crane device is located. This is gradually pushed apart and in the longitudinal direction of parts of the support structure of the crane device on the wagon itself or from this to an adjacent Movable wagon. However, this requires a large number of coordinated movements of a large number of components to be carried out in a specific sequence, so that the crane device is moved slowly and, moreover, is complex and complicated.
- the object of the present invention was to design a crane device which allows the container to be loaded without having to use additional auxiliary or coupling devices between the crane and container or workers and also avoids the disadvantages mentioned above.
- a transport container 1 is shown, which is located on a transport wagon 2. Any container, vessel, etc. can be used as the transport container 1, as long as these do not exceed the prescribed dimensions and can be handled by lifting devices.
- the standardized iso-containers commonly used in transport are preferably used. These have articulation points 11 at all corners, which are used for coupling to the lifting devices, for placing and fixing on holding members or for coupling several containers together.
- mounting pins 21 In the case of transporting the containers on trucks or railway wagons, they are equipped with mounting pins 21. These can also be easily retrofitted. However, other holding elements, such as strips, hooks or the like, are also possible.
- Crossing rails 22 are present on the transport wagon 2, some of which can be retrofitted to any wagon with a flat loading surface and advantageously also holding members for the containers.
- a wagon is preferably used which is already equipped with the crossing rails 22, as is the case with transport wagons for rail vehicles. These are usually designed as low-floor wagons, so that there is the additional advantage of greater distance from the overhead line 5 (see FIGS. 2b, 3b) or the possibility of transporting higher containers 1.
- FIGS. 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b An example of a crane device shown in FIGS. 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b will now be described below.
- each crane device 3 there is at least one crane device 3 on each transport wagon according to the invention.
- the attachment of the crane devices can be firmly connected to the wagon 2, or even be a component group of it.
- the existing crossing rails 22 for placing the Crane devices 3 used This can be accomplished, on the one hand, by simply fixing it to the rails 22, for example by means of a pliers mechanism that includes the rails.
- 3 rollers can be provided on the underside of the cranes, so that they can be moved on the rails 22. The movement can be done by hand or by any drive means, such as electric motors.
- the crane devices 3 are then fixed to the wagon 2 again.
- a pincer mechanism which interacts with the rails can also be provided.
- the cranes 3 can also be supported by means of hydraulically or electrically extendable pressure rams or similar support devices, as well as reaching behind the lower edge of the loading area by means of hook-like extension arms of the crane devices, which can also be actuated hydraulically or electrically drive them up, for example, via a ramp.
- they can also be placed on the wagon by means of any lifting devices, where the movability is then exploited in the manner described below.
- the crossing rails 22 namely allow the crane devices 3 to be moved from wagon to wagon, at least between those which adjoin one another.
- a crane 3 can be used for loading containers on at least two wagons 2, which reduces the number of crane devices 3 that are necessarily to be provided.
- the movements of the cranes 3 required for container loading are made possible by any drive devices 23, 24. These are, for example, hydraulic cylinders, as indicated in the drawings, compressed air cylinders or, especially for movement in the horizontal plane, electric drives via gears, racks or the like.
- the extendable telescopic arm 25 is preferably in all Design variants provided with at least one hydraulic cylinder.
- the hydraulic cylinders 23 for the pivoting movements are arranged on both sides of the telescopic arm 25, but a one-sided arrangement using a double-acting cylinder is also conceivable.
- the hydraulic cylinder or hydraulic cylinders 23 can be arranged differently in position, for example normal to the longitudinal axis of the wagon.
- the drive devices 23, 24 and the telescopic arm 25 are mounted on a platform 26 which is equipped with rollers or wheels 27 for moving on the rails 22.
- the wheels 27 are advantageously driven by a motor, for example an electric motor, although the platforms can also be moved manually.
- At least one device for supporting the crane devices 3 on the platform 26 is also provided.
- an extendable or foldable support unit 28, 28 ' such as preferably a hydraulic cylinder with a pressure stamp, is attached to the platform 26 on each side of the wagon 2.
- These support devices 28, 28 ' can also be attached to the wagons 2 directly, if necessary also in a fixed manner or only when they are folded out.
- FIGS. 4a to 4c An important feature of the invention is the gripping and clamping device 30, which at the tip of the telescopic arm 25 or the extendable part 25 ', attached and designed to couple the crane device 3 with the articulation points 11 on the container 1.
- the variant shown in FIGS. 4a to 4c is an embodiment which is advantageously used in the aforementioned standard containers.
- the articulation points 11 of the usual iso-containers are sheet steel brackets with integrated holes, so that at least one hook-shaped part 31 is provided per articulation point 11 for coupling the crane 3.
- each gripping and clamping device 30 Since there are two articulation points 11 at each end of the container, at least two parts 31 are also provided on each gripping and clamping device 30.
- the hook-shaped parts are preferably articulated at the corner points of a rigid frame 32, which is designed in the form of an isosceles triangle with the tip pointing upward, about an axis of rotation which is essentially horizontal and preferably parallel to the wagon axis.
- the upper corner point 33 of the frame is connected to the extendable part 25 'of the telescopic arm 25.
- the hook-shaped parts 31 are attached to the frame 32 by means of triangular components 34, which are articulated at a corner point on the frame 32, the corner point downward, ie towards the container, with a roller 35, a sliding plate or the like.
- the hook-shaped part 31 is provided and at its third, to the side, corner point said hook-shaped part 31 is rigidly attached.
- the side 34 'lying between this attachment point and the roller 35 forms, together with the hook-shaped part 31, a U-shaped structure which tapers somewhat towards the opening.
- the angle at which the hook-shaped part 31 tilts towards the component 34 is to be selected depending on the dimensions of the components such that when the container is lifted before the container 1 loses contact with the support surface on the wagon 2 or the truck , Parking space etc., the inward-pointing tip of the hook-shaped Component is slightly higher than its section, which is exactly below the articulation point 11 or the point of application of the lifting force (Fig.4b). This measure ensures a secure coupling during the period that the container is not in contact with the ground.
- the described configuration forms a further advantage.
- the frame 32 is lowered further from the position for the transfer process and pressed against the container, so that the roller 35 comes into contact with the container surface and, caused by the arrangement of the Contact point of the roller obliquely below and outside the articulation point of the component 34 on the frame 32, with further lowering it slides outward and pivots the component 34 such that the hook-shaped component 31 emerges from the holes in the articulation points 11 is pushed out (Fig.4c).
- This can also be done with the help of spreaders such as the double-acting hydraulic cylinders mentioned.
- the entire gripping and clamping device 30 is withdrawn from the container in a spread position by a movement of the telescopic arm 25, or its extendable part 25 ′ or also by a movement of the entire crane device 3, in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the container.
- Fig.3a solid lines
- Fig. 3a dashed lines
- the support devices of the two crane devices 3 can be extended to different extents (see Fig. 3a, dashed position).
- the container 1 is raised a little, just enough that it comes free from the mounting pins 21 on the wagon 2 (Fig. 2b). This is done by the drive device 24. Since the mounting pins 21 are only of a small height, a sufficient safety distance from the overhead line 5 is maintained when they are first lifted. Then the swivel devices, e.g. the hydraulic cylinders 23, actuated and the container laterally, but parallel to the wagon axis, pivoted outwards next to the wagon 2 (Fig.3a). Since the highest point of the crane device 3, namely the connection point 33 between the gripping and clamping device 30 and the telescopic arm part 25 ', is now laterally outside the area of the overhead line 5, any possible lifting height can be achieved without risk. For this purpose, part of the hydraulic cylinder 24 is actuated and / or the extendable part 25 'of the telescopic arm is extended. In this way, loading onto trucks or parking spaces with a high floor level is possible without risk.
- the swivel devices e.
- the two cooperating crane devices 3 are addressed by those addressed before the loading process Lines synchronized. If another wagon, for example the adjacent wagon, is then to be unloaded, the crane device 3 closest to it is moved onto this wagon via the crossing rails 22 and the loading process is repeated. The wagons are loaded in reverse order.
