Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tensile and impact device for rail vehicles according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Train and shock devices for rail vehicles are known in various designs such as in the form of buffers or couplings.
  • a fundamental problem with train and bumping devices for rail vehicles is that during overrunning or braking on the respective train and bumping pressure forces are exerted from one to the other rail vehicle, which directed a sideways component, ie a transverse to the longitudinal axis of the rail vehicle Have force.
  • These transverse components occur in particular when driving through curves, since the longitudinal central axis of the one rail vehicle extends at an angle to the longitudinal central axis of the preceding or subsequent rail vehicle. To ensure the derailment safety of rail vehicles, this transverse component must not exceed a certain value in relation to the longitudinal force.
  • each support plate includes a clevis for receiving a hinge pin to which the head of the coupling is articulated.
  • a train and shock device for short-coupled rail vehicles known. This is provided with a pull and push rod, the head part is connected via a hinge pin with a clamping yoke. The end face of this head part abuts directly on the printing plate fixed to the vehicle.
  • the coupling rod is deflected, the pressure-side force introduction point shifts in the direction of deflection for the first moment. Thereafter, however, upon further deflection of the coupling rod, the pressure-side force introduction point migrates back inward, which is undesirable, as this causes the transverse component in relation to the longitudinal force increases again and thus the risk of derailment of the rail vehicle in coasting is no longer guaranteed.
  • FIG. 00/64723 Another, generic coupling device for rail vehicles is from the WO 00/64723 known.
  • This coupling device has a central coupling rod, whose two ends are connected via a hinge connection with the rail vehicle.
  • the articulated connection has a yoke fixed to the coupling rod, which forms a ball joint together with a pull rod provided with a ball head.
  • the yoke is supported on the pressure side on a spring-loaded pressure plate.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a defined in the preamble of claim 1 clutch assembly for rail vehicles in such a way that when pressure forces occur Ratio of lateral force to longitudinal force (Fq / Fl) is smaller, especially in unfavorable conditions, so that the derailment safety of rail vehicles is increased when impact forces occur.
  • the inventive idea is to provide on both sides of the central coupling rod a Drehbefest Trentsvorraumen for fixing to the rail vehicle, wherein the pivot point of the joint of the respective rotary fastening device is in the range or behind a force introduction surface, via which impact forces are transmitted from the coupling rod to the respective rotary fastening device, and wherein between the said force introduction surface and the coupling rod means are arranged, which in the lateral deflection of the Coupling rod to move the power transmission center for impact forces in the deflection direction of the coupling rod.
  • the direction of the force acting on the rail vehicle is influenced so that the lateral force is smaller in relation to the longitudinal compressive force.
  • Fig. 1 shows a pulling and pushing device, which is particularly suitable for short coupling of rail vehicles. Since the pulling and pushing device is constructed symmetrically, in the following explanations usually only the left, cut half of the pulling and pushing device is referred to. It is understood that corresponding parts are also present on the other -right side.
  • the pulling and pushing device has a central coupling rod 1, which is preferably produced as a cast part, in particular as a spheroidal cast iron part.
  • the coupling rod 1 is designed substantially tubular, the wall thickness increases toward the end 2 out.
  • the front side of the coupling rod 1 is closed by a closure part 3.
  • On both sides of the coupling rod 1 each have a rotary fastening device 5, 6 is arranged.
  • This each comprises a flange 8, by means of which the pulling and pushing device is fastened to the rail vehicle (not shown).
  • the flange 8 is arranged between two spring assemblies 9, 12, wherein the inner spring assembly 9 in the direction of impact and the outer spring assembly 12 in the pulling direction is effective.
  • a piston-shaped sleeve 16 is also clamped, which is provided with a bore 17 through which a pull rod 20 extends.
  • the sleeve 16 is axially displaceable in relation to the coupling rod 1.
  • two annular plastic bands 19 are arranged, which act as a sliding bearing.
  • the sleeve 16 is provided on the side facing the flange 8 with a head portion 18 which has a partially spherical surface 25, wherein the central part of the head portion 18 is preferably formed flattened.
  • the flange 8 forms together with the head part 18 a pressure joint 15, by means of which compressive forces occurring during driving are transmitted from the coupling rod 1 to the rail vehicle.
  • Reference numeral 26 denotes a force introduction surface, via which impact forces are transmitted from the coupling rod 1 to the flange to be fixedly attached to the vehicle.
  • the force introduction surface 26 coincides with the end face of the flange 8 facing the head part 18. This force introduction surface 26 thus forms the transition from the deflectable to the firmly connected to the rail vehicle or elements to be joined for impact forces.
  • the force transmission takes place in the direction of impact of the coupling rod 1 and the sleeve 16 on the flange 8 on the straight central portion of the head portion 18.
  • the sleeve 16 is arranged such that it has its longitudinal central axis is rotatable.
  • the arranged on the sleeve 16 head portion 18 is preferably made of plastic, so that a sliding mating between the head portion 18 and the flange 8 made of steel is formed.
  • Both the sleeve 16 and the end part 3 of the coupling rod 1 are each provided with a through hole 4, 17, through which the pull rod 20 extends. Trained as a cap screw drawbar 20 is used to bias the two spring assemblies 9, 12 and the transmission of tensile forces.
  • a pressure plate 27 is disposed between the head 21 of the tie rod 20 and the spring assembly 12.
  • a nut 24 is screwed, which is supported on the inside of the end part 3 of the coupling rod 1. The nut 24 is secured by a locking ring 23 against rotation.
  • the flange 8 is fixed by means of a ball joint 7 on the tie rod 20.
  • the pivot point 29 of the ball joint 7 lies behind the force introduction surface 26 of the flange 8.
  • the bore 4 in the end part 3 is so large that, under all operating conditions, a radial gap between the drawbar 20 and the bore wall in the end part 3 remains and no guiding forces are exerted on the drawbar 20 via the end part 3.
  • the executives are preferably transmitted via the sleeve 16 on the guide belts 19 and thus on the coupling rod 1. By this configuration, the forces acting on the pull rod 20 bending forces can be reduced.
  • Each spring assembly 9, 12 consists of a plurality of elastomeric plastic made of spring elements 10, 13 which are separated by intermediate plates 11, 14.
  • spring assemblies 9, 13 By providing independent spring assemblies 9, 13 for compression and tension, a smooth change from draft to pressure and vice versa is achieved.
  • the head part 18 is provided with a flattened middle part, a non-deflected coupling rod 1, ie a straight track section, a large-scale investment of the head portion 18 is achieved on the flange 8, which has a stabilizing effect. As a result, in particular rolling and oscillating movements of the rearmost car can be prevented in steady driving.
  • the sleeve 16 is arranged rotatably about the longitudinal central axis, a uniform wear of the head part 18 is achieved.
  • the at least partially provided with a spherical surface 25 head portion 18 could also be arranged directly on the coupling rod 1 and thereby dispense with the sleeve 16.
  • the pressure side active spring package would have to be laid on the inside of the coupling rod and the pull rod 20 are dimensioned accordingly.
  • the flange 8 could be provided on the side facing the head part 18 with a partially spherical surface and provided for the head part 18 with a straight or slightly spherical surface.
  • the mounting flange 8 is shown in a plan view, from the particular fastening holes 28 can be seen, which are provided for performing screws, by means of which the flange 8 and thus the pulling and pushing device can be fixed to the rail vehicle.
  • flange 8 instead of the flange 8 shown but also flanges can be used without mounting holes.
  • Fig. 3 shows the left side of the pulling and pushing device according to Fig.1 in a deflected state in an enlarged view. With 30 of the flattened middle part of the head portion 18 is designated.
  • the coupling rod 1 is deflected in the present case by about 6 ° with respect to the hinted vehicle longitudinal axis 32 of the rail vehicle, wherein the longitudinal center axis of the coupling rod 1 is provided with the reference numeral 33.
  • the pressure-side transmission center X moves continuously in the deflection of the coupling rod 1 when deflecting the coupling rod 1.
  • the ratio of lateral force to longitudinal force occurs when pressure forces occur (Fq / FI) smaller and the Derailment safety of the rail vehicle is increased.
  • this normally means that a shock force is exerted on the corresponding vehicle via the pulling and pushing device, which impact force occurs in particular during braking of the vehicles or during pushing operation.
  • the fulcrum 29 of the ball joint 7 is located behind the force introduction surface 26, but the fulcrum could also be pushed up to the force introduction surface 26, or in some cases even slightly shifted beyond.
  • Fig. 4 shows the pulling and pushing device in a first operating state, which can occur when passing through an S-arm.
  • the force action line 34 extending between the pressure-side force introduction points XI, Xr runs virtually parallel to the schematically illustrated longitudinal axes 35, 36 of the rail vehicles.
