Abstract

The invention concerns a bogie for railway use comprising: a support crosspiece (3), said crosspiece (3) being fixed on side members (4), said side members comprising a top flange (5) and a bottom tie pad; a web connecting the bottom flange and the top tie pad. Said bogie is characterised in that the top flange (5) is located in a horizontal plane and the width (L) of said flange (5) rapidly increases from its two ends (5A, 5B) so that the inner edge of said flange (5) is at a predetermined distance (D) from the vertical plane (P) passing through the outer sides of the wheels (8) of the bogie just to maintain the clearance required for the lateral displacement of the wheels.

Description

L'invention se rapporte à un bogie pour une utilisation ferroviaire.The invention relates to a bogie for railway use.

Elle se rapporte également au wagon pourvu dudit bogie.It also relates to the wagon provided with said bogie.

La construction des matériels ferroviaires est subordonnée à des règles internationales permettant que ces wagons puissent circuler d'un réseau national vers un autre réseau national.The construction of railway equipment is subject to rules allowing these wagons to operate from a national network to another national network.

On connaít par exemple le règlement UIC.We know, for example, the UIC Regulation.

Outre la fixation des gabarits : hauteur, largeur, ce règlement impose que soit déterminé le poids maximal par essieux des bogies.In addition to the fixing of the templates: height, width, this regulation imposes that the maximum axle weight of the bogies is determined.

Ainsi, en France, sont connus les bogies identifiés sous les références Y25 ou Y33.Thus, in France, are known bogies identified under the references Y25 or Y33.

Ils ont pour objet principalement d'identifier des caractéristiques techniques du châssis.Their main purpose is to identify technical characteristics of the chassis.

Le châssis d'un bogie, par exemple, du type Y33 dont la charge par essieu a été limitée à dix huit tonnes par essieu, est constitué d'une traverse porteuse sur laquelle repose l'articulation à pivot de la caisse du wagon et cette traverse porteuse est, par ses deux extrémités, fixée sur des longerons.The chassis of a bogie, for example, type Y33 whose axle load has been limited to eighteen tonnes per axle, consists of a load-bearing beam on which the pivot joint of the wagon body and this crosspiece carrier is, by its two ends, fixed on longitudinal members.

Ces longerons sont associés aux quatre roues du bogie par une suspension.These beams are associated with the four wheels of the bogie by a suspension.

Ces suspensions sont chacune constituées par deux groupes de ressorts montés coaxiaux dits, pour le premier ressort, de tare et, pour le second ressort, de charge.These suspensions are each constituted by two groups of springs coaxial mounted, for the first spring, tare and, for the second spring, charge.

Chacune de ses suspensions s'appuie sensiblement sous l'extrémité d'un longeron.Each of its suspensions leans substantially under the end of a spar.

Pour, d'une part, fixer la traverse et, d'autre part, résister à la charge verticale, les longerons ont une forme particulière.On the one hand, to fix the cross-member and, on the other hand, to withstand the load vertical, the spars have a particular shape.

Chaque longeron comprend :

  • une semelle supérieure
  • une semelle inférieure qui, depuis chacune de ses deux extrémités et à une distance prédéterminée de ces extrémités, s'écarte progressivement de la semelle supérieure pour conférer à l'ensemble une forme globalement de trapèze avec la petite base située en bas
  • une âme reliant la semelle inférieure et la semelle supérieure, cette âme étant par ailleurs localement constituée par l'épaisseur de la traverse qui se fixe sur ce longeron.
Each spar includes:
  • an upper sole
  • a lower flange which, from each of its two ends and at a predetermined distance from these ends, gradually deviates from the upper flange to give the assembly a generally trapezoidal shape with the small base at the bottom
  • a soul connecting the lower sole and the upper sole, this soul being also locally constituted by the thickness of the crossbar which is fixed on the spar.

L'âme se présente sous la forme d'un voile pour constituer des longerons à section en 1.The soul is in the form of a veil to form spars to section in 1.

Pour conférer une bonne résistance à la charge verticale, d'une part, la semelle supérieure forme localement deux bosses pour obtenir une inertie constante et, d'autre part, au niveau du pli de cette semelle pour former la bosse, sont fixés de part et d'autre de l'âme, des goussets de renfort empêchant l'écrasement.To give good resistance to the vertical load, on the one hand, the upper sole locally forms two bumps to obtain inertia constant and, on the other hand, at the level of the fold of this sole to form the hump, are fixed on both sides of the soul, reinforcing gussets preventing crushing.

Pour compléter la suspension, il est préservé entre le plan vertical passant par les flanc externes des roues et le bord interne de la semelle supérieure, un espace suffisant pour y loger un lisoir.To complete the suspension, it is preserved between the vertical plane passing the outer side of the wheels and the inner edge of the upper sole, a enough space to accommodate a light.

Pour réduire les coûts de transport, il est nécessaire d'augmenter la charge de ces wagons et donc la charge acceptable par les bogies.To reduce transport costs, it is necessary to increase the load of these wagons and therefore the load acceptable by the bogies.

Pour augmenter la charge par essieux d'un tel châssis, l'homme du métier cherche donc à augmenter notamment les paramètres précités et donc à accroítre l'effet de goussets ou l'effet des bosses et ainsi augmenter toutes les épaisseurs des semelles.To increase the axle load of such a chassis, the person skilled in the art therefore seeks to increase in particular the above parameters and therefore to increase the effect of gussets or the effect of the bumps and thus increase all the thicknesses soles.

On constate toutefois que si, la résistance en statique du bogie est améliorée, son comportement en dynamique est déplorable.However, if the static resistance of the bogie is improved, its dynamic behavior is deplorable.

L'invention se propose donc de résoudre au moins le problème évoqué ci-dessus.The invention therefore proposes to solve at least the problem mentioned above.

A cet effet l'invention a pour objet un bogie du type précité comprenant :

  • une traverse porteuse sur laquelle repose l'articulation à pivot de la caisse du wagon et cette traverse porteuse est , par ses deux extrémités, fixée sur des longerons, lesquels longerons comprennent chacun :
    • une semelle supérieure
    • une semelle inférieure qui, depuis chacune de ses deux extrémités, s'écarte progressivement de la semelle supérieure pour conférer à l'ensemble une forme globalement de trapèze avec la petite base située en bas
  • une âme reliant la semelle inférieure et la semelle supérieure, cette âme étant par ailleurs localement constituée par l'épaisseur de la traverse qui se fixe sur ce longeron,
ce bogie étant caractérisé en ce que, d'une part, la semelle supérieure se situe dans un plan horizontal et, d'autre part, la largeur de cette semelle augmente rapidement depuis ses deux extrémités de sorte que le bord interne de cette semelle se situe à une distance prédéterminée du plan vertical passant par les flancs externes des roues du bogies pour préserver seulement le jeu nécessaire au déplacement latéral des roues.For this purpose the invention relates to a bogie of the aforementioned type comprising:
  • a carrier cross on which rests the pivot joint of the wagon body and the carrier beam is, by its two ends, fixed on longitudinal members, which longitudinal members each comprise:
    • an upper sole
    • a lower sole which, since each of its two ends, gradually deviates from the upper sole to give the assembly a generally trapezoidal shape with the small base located at the bottom
  • a core connecting the lower sole and the upper sole, this core being moreover locally constituted by the thickness of the crossbar which is fixed on this spar,
this bogie being characterized in that, on the one hand, the upper sole lies in a horizontal plane and, on the other hand, the width of this sole increases rapidly from its two ends so that the inner edge of this sole is located at a predetermined distance from the vertical plane passing through the outer flanks of the wheels of the bogies to preserve only the clearance necessary for the lateral displacement of the wheels.

L'invention a également pour objet le wagon pourvu dudit bogie.The invention also relates to the wagon provided with said bogie.

L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faite à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en regard du dessin ci-annexé, qui représente schématiquement :

  • figures 1 et 2 : wagons vus de dessus,
  • figure 3 : bogie vu de profil,
  • figure 4 : bogie vu de dessus,
  • figure 5 : détail de la figure 3.
The invention will be better understood from the following description given by way of nonlimiting example, with reference to the attached drawing, which schematically represents:
  • Figures 1 and 2: wagons seen from above,
  • figure 3: bogie seen in profile,
  • figure 4: bogie seen from above,
  • Figure 5: Detail of Figure 3.

En se reportant au dessin, on voit un wagon 1 et plus particulièrement un assemblage de deux plate-formes supportées 1A, 1B par des bogies 2.Referring to the drawing, we see a wagon 1 and more particularly a assembly of two supported platforms 1A, 1B by bogies 2.

Ce wagon est notamment destiné à transporter des conteneurs et est donc équipé de système de verrouillage de ces conteneurs sur la plate-forme.This wagon is intended in particular to transport containers and is therefore equipped with locking system of these containers on the platform.

Classiquement, chacun de ces bogies comprend :

  • une traverse 3 porteuse sur laquelle repose l'articulation à pivot de la caisse du wagon et cette traverse 3 porteuse est, par ses deux extrémités, fixée sur des longerons 4, lesquels longerons comprennent chacun :
    • une semelle 5 supérieure
    • une semelle 6 inférieure qui, depuis chacune de ses deux extrémités et à une distance prédéterminée de ces extrémités, s'écarte progressivement de la semelle supérieure 5 pour conférer à l'ensemble une forme globalement de trapèze avec la petite base située en bas,
  • une âme 7 reliant la semelle inférieure et la semelle supérieure cette âme étant par ailleurs localement constituée par l'épaisseur de la traverse qui se fixe sur ce longeron.
Conventionally, each of these bogies includes:
  • a carrier beam 3 on which rests the pivot joint of the car body and the cross carrier 3 is, by its two ends, fixed on the longitudinal members 4, which longitudinal members each comprise:
    • a top 5 sole
    • a lower sole 6 which, from each of its two ends and at a predetermined distance from these ends, gradually deviates from the upper sole 5 to give the assembly a generally trapezoidal shape with the small base located at the bottom,
  • a core 7 connecting the lower sole and the upper sole, this core being moreover locally constituted by the thickness of the crossbar which is fixed on this spar.

Cette âme 7 est un simple voile, de sorte que les longerons ont une section en I aux extrémités.This soul 7 is a simple veil, so that the side members have a section I at the ends.

Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 3 et 4, la traverse s'élargit à ses extrémités et se raccorde au voile ou âme 7. Elle délimite également un trapèze avec la petite base au plus près du sol. Sur une grande partie de sa longueur, la traverse est de largeur constante.As can be seen in Figures 3 and 4, the cross widens at its ends and is connected to the web or core 7. It also defines a trapezium with the small base closer to the ground. For much of its length, the cross is of constant width.

Ce bogie accepte une charge de vingt tonnes par essieu.This bogie accepts a load of twenty tons per axle.

Selon une caractéristique de ce bogie :

  • d'une part, la semelle 5 supérieure se situe dans un plan horizontal et
  • d'autre part, la largeur L de cette semelle 5 augmente rapidement depuis ses deux extrémités 5A, 5B de sorte que-le bord interne 8 de cette semelle 5 se situe à une distance D prédéterminée du plan P vertical passant par les flancs extemes des roues 18 du bogie pour juste préserver le jeu nécessaire au déplacement latéral des roues.
According to a characteristic of this bogie:
  • on the one hand, the upper sole 5 is in a horizontal plane and
  • on the other hand, the width L of this sole 5 increases rapidly from its two ends 5A, 5B so that the inner edge 8 of this sole 5 is at a predetermined distance D from the vertical plane P passing through the outer flanks of the wheels 18 of the bogie to just preserve the game necessary for the lateral displacement of the wheels.

La semelle inférieure depuis son extrémité jusqu'à son plan transverse médian présente une première zone Z1 parallèle à la semelle 5 supérieure puis une deuxième zone Z2 inclinée vers le bas puis, enfin, une troisième zone Z3 également parallèle à la semelle supérieure.The bottom sole from its end to its transverse plane median has a first zone Z1 parallel to the upper sole 5 then a second zone Z2 inclined down and finally a third zone Z3 also parallel to the upper sole.

Dans la zone Z1, l'épaisseur du longeron est constante à l'exception de la partie extrême.In zone Z1, the thickness of the spar is constant except for the extreme part.

Ainsi, cette amélioration par rapport au bogie de l'art antérieur augmente la souplesse du longeron et les efforts induits par la traverse entraíne un travail au cisaillement alors qu'auparavant il s'agissait d'un travail en torsicn.Thus, this improvement over the bogie of the prior art increases the flexibility of the spar and the forces induced by the crossbar leads to work at shear whereas before it was a work in torsicn.

Avantageusement, seule la face externe 7A de l'âme 7 du longeron présente un gousset 10 qui s'étend entre la face inférieure de la semelle supérieure et la face supérieure de la semelle inférieure.Advantageously, only the outer face 7A of the core 7 of the spar has a gusset 10 which extends between the underside of the sole upper and the upper face of the lower sole.

Le gousset se situe dans la zone Z1 légèrement avant la transition avec la zone Z2.The gusset is in zone Z1 slightly before the transition with the zone Z2.

Cela améliore la flexion latérale.This improves lateral flexion.

Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 4, la réduction de la largeur de la semelle supérieure se fait depuis l'essieu. Cette partie est asymétrique, le bord interne étant plus incliné que le bord externe. As can be seen in Figure 4, the reduction in the width of the upper sole is from the axle. This part is asymmetrical, the edge internal being more inclined than the outer edge.

Avantageusement, la face supérieure de la semelle supérieure de chaque longeron porte une lame lisoir 11 dont une extrémité 11A est fixée, par exemple, par quatre points sur cette semelle supérieure.Advantageously, the upper face of the upper sole of each spar carries a slide 11, one end 11A is fixed, for example, by four points on this upper sole.

L'étendue de cette lame lisoir qui, en outre, est élastique, améliore fortement le comportement du wagon.The extent of this slider blade which, in addition, is elastic, improves strongly the behavior of the wagon.

Au niveau des modifications d'épaisseur, on note que l'âme du longeron a été augmentée d'environ 30% ainsi que la largeur de la semelle supérieure d'environ 25%.At the level of the thickness modifications, it is noted that the core of the spar has has been increased by about 30% and the width of the upper sole about 25%.

L'épaisseur de l'âme du longeron antérieur était antérieurement de quatorze millimètres et la largeur de deux cents millimètres.The thickness of the core of the anterior spar was previously fourteen millimeters and the width of two hundred millimeters.

Par contre, comme indiqué précédemment, l'épaisseur de la semelle supérieure a été maintenue.However, as indicated above, the thickness of the sole superior has been maintained.

Le bogie ainsi modifié permet de supporter au moins vingt tonnes par essieux.The bogie thus modified makes it possible to support at least twenty tons per axles.

Le wagon est du type à deux plate-formes assemblées, chaque plate-forme étant portée par deux bogies du type précité ou du type une plate-forme, la plate-forme étant portée par deux bogies du type précité.The wagon is of the type with two assembled platforms, each platform being carried by two bogies of the aforementioned type or of the type a platform, the platform being carried by two bogies of the aforementioned type.

Le poids de l'ensemble est réduit est pour cela cette plate-forme comprend en partie médiane deux longerons 12 externes qui relient deux planchers 13 constituant les extrémités de chaque plate-forme.The weight of the set is reduced is why this platform includes partly median two external 12 longitudinal members that connect two floors 13 constituting the ends of each platform.

Les planchers sont limitées à la surface située au dessus des bogies.Floors are limited to the surface above the bogies.

Les longerons 12 de ces plate-formes sont localement maintenus à l'écartement requis par des traverses 14.The spars 12 of these platforms are locally maintained at the distance required by sleepers 14.

Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 1, les extrémités des wagons présentent des moyens classiques de liaison avec un autre ensemble et comprennent donc deux tampons et un crochet d'attelage.As can be seen in Figure 1, the ends of the cars present conventional ways of linking with another set and therefore include two buffers and a towing hook.

Par contre, les extrémités des plate-formes accouplées entre elles ne sont équipées chacune que d'un seul tampon.On the other hand, the ends of the platforms coupled together are not each equipped with only one buffer.

Classiquement, a été représentée une timonerie de frein à sabot.Conventionally, a brake shoe linkage has been represented.

Selon l'invention, au lieu de faire appel à une bielle traíneau qui contourne le dessous de la traverse porteuse, le bogie comprend une bielle 15 connecteur tubulaire pour la timonerie de frein qui traverse localement la traverse porteuse.According to the invention, instead of using a connecting rod which bypasses the underside of the carrier beam, the bogie comprises a connecting rod 15 connector tubular for the brake linkage which passes locally through the carrier beam.

Cela limite le poids du bogie et permet donc d'augmenter la charge. This limits the weight of the bogie and therefore increases the load.

Une autre modification est apportée par rapport au bogie type Y33 défini à dix huit tonnes par essieu dans la norme UIC à laquelle il est fait référence et dont le contenu est intégré dans la demande.Another modification is made with respect to the bogie type Y33 defined in eighteen tons per axle in the UIC standard referred to and whose the content is integrated into the application.

Il s'agit de plan sous la référence SNCF N° 104011022 et 14011023.It is plan under the reference SNCF N ° 104011022 and 14011023.

La longueur du débattement de la suspension est augmentée d'environ 15% et pour ce faire, la table 16 d'appui des ressorts est abaissée d'environ quatorze millimètres.The length of the travel of the suspension is increased by approximately 15% and to do this, the table 16 of support of the springs is lowered about fourteen millimeters.

Sur le bogie antérieur, la distance entre l'axe de la roue et la table d'appui de la boíte de roulement était de cent trente quatre millimètres.On the front bogie, the distance between the axis of the wheel and the support table the rolling box was one hundred and thirty-four millimeters.

Ainsi, l'ensemble suspension a été modifié afin d'incorporer les organes, les éléments et les jeux fonctionnels d'une suspension vingt tonnes tout en respectant les cotes de l'enveloppe d'un bogie standard Y33.Thus, the suspension assembly has been modified in order to incorporate the organs, the elements and the functional games of a suspension twenty tons while respecting the dimensions of the envelope of a standard bogie Y33.
