Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for safe and low-wear guidance of track-bound vehicles along a given course by running gear with two wheels arranged side by side, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the proposed facility is intended on the one hand to ensure safe track guidance and also to enable the highest travel speeds with the lowest risk of derailment even on conventional double-rail tracks of the railways.
  • the facility is also intended to allow narrow track arches to be safely derailed.
  • the wear on rails and wheels should be reduced as much as possible, both when driving fast on straight lines and when traveling on narrow bends.
  • Wheel sets consist of the rotatable wheel set shaft and two fixed with this connected wheels with tapered wheel profiles.
  • Such wheelsets have the natural characteristic of a lateral offset of the wheelset to turn automatically from the middle of the track, d. H. a swiveling or turning movement to execute the vertical axis. With that, they are able to both continuous one-sided wheel flange start of a wheel in a straight track without to prevent external support as well as necessary for archery Turning movements for the radial adjustment of the wheelset axis to the Center of the track curve to be carried out by itself without external steering assistance.
  • This natural advantage of the tracking principle is to be wheelset at the same time biggest disadvantage.
  • the ability of the wheelset to turn automatically means that a wheelset, which was once made to turn on a straight track, uncontrolled turning movements are carried out in alternation. He moves thereby on a wave path (sine wave) through the track channel of the track. Unwanted slip and constant change of drive and Braking forces in the wheel contact points of the wheels are the cause. Restless Vehicle running, wear on wheels and rails and rolling noise follow from this. Even at low vehicle speeds, the Wheelset movements so large that hard wheel flange starts are unavoidable which already lead to derailment at somewhat higher driving speeds can.
  • the two tracking principle, wheel set and wheel pair are in pure form for the tracking of rail vehicles in the track unusable. With the wheelset cannot be driven quickly; Pairs of wheels do not travel through bends. To remedy these shortcomings, the constraint of the wheelset becomes permanent Waves running through longitudinally and transversely arranged springs and dampers between Vehicle or chassis and wheelset suppressed. The effect is based on the fact that additional forces in the Wheelset are initiated that stabilize the wheelset run. It's being attempted, that inevitably arise in the zero level of the wheel / rail level Forces in the one level of the axlebox bearings located above the zero level and at least partially compensate for wheel centers. The bigger the Driving speed becomes, the greater the necessary forces have to be.
  • the invention has for its object the necessary stabilization of a Chassis with opposite wheels without rigid axle connection in a straight track and the necessary steering torques of the wheels to produce for the bow ride so that the driving comfort improves and the wear is reduced.
  • a steering torque can be represented as a pair of forces. It is created by two equally large, oppositely directed, parallel forces.
  • the torques of the same size applied to two wheels at the same time are special about the proposed facility. Differentiates on this point it differs significantly from other known proposals.
  • the zero-level concept with synchronous, anti-directional torque stamping is for non-driven, driven and braked tracking units applicable.
  • tracking is free according to the zero-level concept described of reactions between chassis and vehicle. This results in a significant improvement in driving comfort.
  • Fig. 1 shows the principle of a device in a schematic, spatial representation. Shown are the two wheels 1 and 2 of the device in a vehicle or chassis. The center 3 of the undercarriage lying between the wheels 1 and 2 is to be guided over the predetermined course 4. For this purpose, wheels 1 and 2 of the same size but opposing torques + M y 5 and -M y 6 are impressed. In the wheel contact points they generate the longitudinal force + F x 7 and -F x 8. The steering torque F x ⁇ a necessary for steering arises from the distance 9 of the wheel contact points from one another, which turns the chassis about its vertical axis 10 and guides it along the predetermined course 4.
  • Fig. 4 shows an embodiment in which the required drive and braking torques on the wheels 1 and 2 are generated by an actuator 11 via a mechanical superposition gear.
  • the superposition gear consists in principle of two planetary gears connected in series, the first planetary gear having a planet carrier 14, a ring gear 16 and a sun gear 17 and the second planetary gear having a planet carrier 22, a ring gear 21 and a sun gear 19.
  • a sun gear shaft 18 connects the two planetary gears to one another.
  • the planet carrier 14 is directly or indirectly coupled to the wheel 1.
  • the planet gear 15 is in engagement with the ring gear 16 and the sun gear 17.
  • the planet gear 20 meshes, which in turn engages in the ring gear 21 and the planet carrier 22 is connected directly or indirectly to the gear 2.
  • the sun gear 17 of the first planetary gear is firmly connected to the sun gear 19 of the second planetary gear via the common sun gear shaft 18. While the ring gear 16 is fixed, the ring gear 21 is rotatably supported and by an actuator 11, for. B. by means of a worm shaft 23 of a worm drive in both directions of rotation. When the actuator is stopped, the ring gear 21 is blocked.
  • the arrangement described functions like a rigid shaft.
  • the two wheels 1 and 2 are firmly coupled to one another via the planetary gear; they have the same speed and transmit the same torque.
  • the residual torques which result when the torques are converted in the two planetary gears are supported on the gearbox housings via the two fixed ring gears 16 and 21. If the torque support on the ring gear 21 is changed via the worm shaft 23 by the actuator 11, the planet gears 20, 15 ensure that the change is divided equally between the wheels 1 and 2.
  • a reduction in the torque at wheel 2 corresponds to an equal change in torque at wheel 1 and vice versa.
  • Fig. 5 shows an embodiment in which the already described superposition gear between the wheels 1 and 2 is also designed as a traction gear.
  • the common sun gear shaft 18 is provided, for example, with an additional gear drive 24, via which a traction drive 25 feeds the traction power.
  • wheels 1 and 2 rotate at the same speed.
  • the torques on the wheels 1 and 2 are set in accordance with the wheel circumferential forces which can be transmitted in the wheel contact points of the wheels 1 and 2.
  • the actuator 11 which acts on the gearbox via the worm shaft 23 in this exemplary embodiment, it is possible to influence the torques on the wheels 1 and 2 as described by superimposing them.
  • FIG. 6 Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 6 .
  • a second traction drive 26 which acts on the same ring gear of the gear drive 24.
  • the two drives 25 and 26 thus drive the wheels 1 and 2, as described above in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 5.
  • the planetary gear of the wheel 1 is equipped with a second actuator 11 in the form of a second worm drive with worm shaft 27. With the second worm drive, the distribution of the torques on the wheels 1 and 2 can be influenced as desired, regardless of the function of the traction drives 25 and 26 and the first worm drive.
  • FIG. 7 A further exemplary embodiment is shown schematically in FIG. 7 .
  • the two planetary gears with the actuators 11 are arranged outside the inner space delimited by the wheels 1 and 2 next to the wheels 1 and 2. This arrangement leaves greater space in the interior for other chassis and vehicle components. This is particularly important for low-floor vehicles.
