Die Klemmbacken 21 und 22 können hierbei in geschlossenem Zustand auf der Schienenoberkante 40 aufliegen. Im Bereich des Verbindungsgelenks 14 befindet sich der Anlenkpunkt für den Zylinder der Kolbenzylindereinheit 8', d.h. dessen Gelenk 10 nach Fig. 1.2 shows the clamping element 7 in a front view: as can be seen, this consists of two against each other Link joint 14 movable lever arms 15 and 16, which at the ends with a rail head 30 each Jaw 21, 22 are provided. The jaws 21 and 22 can be closed on the top edge of the rail 40 lie on. Located in the area of the connecting joint 14 the articulation point for the cylinder of the piston-cylinder unit 8 ', i.e. the joint 10 of FIG. 1st

Die beiden Hebelarme 15 und 16 sind gegeneinander verspannbar: Die beiden Hebelarme 15 und 16 weisen zwischen dem Verbindungsgelenk 14 und den Klemmbacken 21 und 22 eine Schnellspanneinrichtung 24 auf. Diese Schnellspanneinrichtung 24 besteht aus einem an dem ersten Hebelarm 15 angelenkten Gewindebolzen 25, welcher den zweiten Hebelarm 16 durchsetzt. Auf diesen Gewindebolzen 25 ist eine Spannschraube 26 aufgeschraubt, welche in der Lage ist, eine Spannfläche 27 des zweiten Hebelarms zu beaufschlagen. Hierbei kann der Gewindebolzen 25 um einen Zapfen 23 schwenken, welcher drehbar in dem Hebelarm 15 gelagert ist. Damit kann in Offenstellung A die Schnellspanneinrichtung 24 mit dem Gewindezapfen 25 und der Spannschraube 26 die strichpunktierte Position einnehmen, wodurch sich auch der Hebelarm 16 in Offenstellung befindet.The two lever arms 15 and 16 can be braced against each other: The two lever arms 15 and 16 point between the Connection joint 14 and the jaws 21 and 22 a Quick release device 24.

On this threaded bolt 41st a clamping nut 42 is arranged, which is shown in FIG Closed position B 'on each side at a holding area 43 the support element 32 can support. So there is one Quick release device 52 in front, consisting of the threaded bolt 41 and the clamping nut 42, which is in the closed position B 'bears on the holding area 43 of the support element 32.

Das andere Auflageelement 33 weist hinter der zwischen den Lagerböcken 68 und 69 gelagerten Rolle 35 einen Hebelarm 29 auf, welcher an seinem oberen Ende das Gelenk 13 in Form eines Bolzens 18 besitzt. Dieser Bolzen 18 durchsetzt einen Gelenkkopf 19, welcher Teil der Kolbenstange 12 der Kolbenzylindereinheit 8' ist.The other support element 33 has behind the between the Bearing blocks 68 and 69 mounted roller 35 have a lever arm 29 on which at its upper end the hinge 13 in the form of a Bolzens 18 owns. This bolt 18 passes through a joint head 19, which part of the piston rod 12 of the piston-cylinder unit 8 'is.

Beide Auflageelemente 32 und 33 sind mit seitlichen, auf die Breite der Schiene 5 abgestellten Führungen 44 und 45 versehen.Both support elements 32 and 33 are with lateral, on the Width of the rail 5 parked guides 44 and 45 provided.

Der Justierschlitten 9 wird, wenn sich der Spannschlitten 37 in Offenstellung befindet (Gewindebolzen 41 nimmt die Position A' ein), auf die Schiene 5 gesetzt, und zwar so, daß die Rolle 35 einen Teil des Umfangs des Rades 20 des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 berührt. Nunmehr wird der Spannschlitten 37 in Pfeilrichtung I verschoben, bis er sich nahe am Umfang des Rades 20 befindet. Anschließend wird der Gewindebolzen 41 aus Position A' in die Position B' bewegt und der Gewindebolzen 41 gedreht, wobei die Spannmutter 42 an dem Haltebereich 43 anliegt und ein Widerlager bildet, während sich die Rolle 36 an dem der Rolle 35 gegenüberliegenden Bereich des Radumfangs des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 anlegt. Damit ist dieses Rad 20 fest zwischen den beiden Rollen 35 und 36 eingespannt.The adjusting slide 9 is when the clamping slide 37 is in the open position (threaded bolt 41 takes the position A 'a), placed on the rail 5, so that the role 35 a part of the circumference of the wheel 20 of the rail vehicle 1 touched. Now the clamping slide 37 in the direction of arrow I moved until it is close to the circumference of the wheel 20. Then the threaded bolt 41 from position A 'in the Position B 'moved and the threaded bolt 41 rotated, the Clamping nut 42 abuts the holding area 43 and an abutment forms while the roller 36 forms on that of the roller 35 opposite area of the wheel circumference of the rail vehicle 1 creates. This wheel 20 is firmly between the clamped two rollers 35 and 36.

Da die Kolbenzylindereinheit 8' mit einer Antriebs- und Steuereinrichtung 55 und 56 verbunden ist, kann über diese nunmehr die Kolbenzylindereinheit 8' betätigt werden, so daß entweder durch Schieben oder Ziehen der Kolbenstange 12 das Schienenfahrzeug 1 gegenüber dem auf den Stützfüßen 4 aufruhenden Behälter solange verschoben wird, bis eine funktionsgerechte Längszentrierung des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 gegenüber dem Behälter 2 erreicht ist.Since the piston-cylinder unit 8 'with a drive and control device 55 and 56 is connected, can now over this the piston cylinder unit 8 'are operated so that either by pushing or pulling the piston rod 12 the rail vehicle 1 compared to the one resting on the support feet 4 The container is moved until a functional one Longitudinal centering of the rail vehicle 1 with respect to the container 2 is reached.

Die Antriebs- und Steuereinrichtung 55, 56 ist nach Fig. 1 vorzugsweise als Mobilaggregat ausgebildet und läßt sich damit auf einfache Weise in die funktionsgerechte Position verfahren. Weiterhin ist, wie gestrichelt dargestellt, diese Antriebs- und Steuereinheit 55 und 56 mit Bremselementen des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 verbindbar, so daß nach Lösen der Bremse des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 dieses, wie vorstehend beschrieben, längszentrierbar ist. Anschließend können die Bremsen des Schienenfahrzeugs 1 wieder fixiert werden.The drive and control device 55, 56 is according to FIG. 1 preferably designed as a mobile unit and can be used move to the functional position in a simple manner. Furthermore, as shown in dashed lines, this is Drive and control unit 55 and 56 with braking elements of the Rail vehicle 1 connectable so that after releasing the brake of the rail vehicle 1, as described above, is longitudinally centerable. Then the brakes of the Rail vehicle 1 are fixed again.

Infolge der sehr stabilen Ausbildung des Klemmelements 7 und des Justierschlittens 9 besteht die Möglichkeit, nicht nur ein Schienenfahrzeug 1, sondern mehrere, hintereinander angeordnete Schienenfahrzeuge im vorgenannten Sinne zum Längszentrieren unter Aufstützfüßen 4 abgestellten Behältern 2 einzusetzen. Da das Klemmelement 7 an beliebiger Stelle am Schienenkopf 30 befestigbar ist und da die Antriebs- und Steuereinheit 55, 56 als Mobilaggregat vorliegt, ergibt sich ein sehr weiter Anwendungsbereich bei hoher Flexibilität.Due to the very stable design of the clamping element 7 and the adjustment slide 9 there is the possibility not only one Rail vehicle 1, but several, one behind the other Rail vehicles in the aforementioned sense for longitudinal centering use containers 2 placed under support feet 4. Since the clamping element 7 at any point on the rail head 30 can be fastened and since the drive and control unit 55, 56 as a mobile unit, there is a very wide range Area of application with high flexibility.
