Slow changes can be caused in particular by aging processes caused on the components of the track construction, while rapid changes mainly due to changing climatic influences or arise from structural changes. There are also variations in the flexibility along the track, for example due to different Track construction technologies, or if different in the course of the route geological subsurface conditions occur. There are also inhomogeneities in compliance by local disturbances. This includes transitions, partial threshold hollow layers or a change from newly worked through to aged track sections and vice versa.

On the one hand, there are suggestions from the course the track geometry itself including any track position errors. On the other hand these are suggestions due to the flexibility of the tracks and in particular the dynamic effects from different successive Resilience in the course of the track, which is considerable when there are major changes can even take on threatening proportions. In the course of measures to Track maintenance therefore depends on the detection of geometric track position errors also the course of the track compliance To determine measurements in order to take appropriate measures in a given To be able to guarantee or restore the tolerance range.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Messverfahren und eine Anordnung zum Erfassen der Nachgiebigkeit eines Gleises. Sie findet Anwendung zur Gleisdiagnose im Rahmen von Gleisinspektions- beziehungsweise Gleismessfahrten und schafft neben einer Beurteilung des geometrischen Gleiszustandes zugleich auch die Voraussetzungen für eine qualitative und quantitative Bewertung der Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises.The invention relates to a measuring method and an arrangement for detecting the Compliance of a track. It is used for track diagnosis in Framework of track inspection or track measurement runs and creates in addition to an assessment of the geometrical track condition, also the requirements for a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the flexibility of the Track.
Eisenbahngleise sind keine starren Gebilde. Aufgrund ihrer Nachgiebigkeit erfahren sie unter vertikalen wie auch horizontalen Krafteinwirkungen der auf diesen verkehrenden Schienenfahrzeuge elastische Verformungen in vertikaler und horizontaler Richtung. Diese Nachgiebigkeit der Gleise ist eine wichtige Eigenschaft desjenigen Systems, das Schienenfahrzeuge und Gleise miteinander eingehen. Ein starres System würde gegenüber einem elastischen zu unzulässig hohen dynamischen Beanspruchungen sowohl am Gleis wie auch an den Schienenfahrzeugen führen. Schienenfahrzeuge und Gleise müssen daher hinsichtlich ihrer elastischen Eigenschaften und Dämpfungen eng aufeinander abgestimmt sein.Railway tracks are not rigid structures. Because of their compliance experience it under vertical as well as horizontal forces of the these rail vehicles running elastic deformations in vertical and horizontal direction. This flexibility of the tracks is an important one Property of the system that rail vehicles and tracks together received. A rigid system would be inadmissible compared to an elastic system high dynamic loads both on the track and on lead the rail vehicles. Rail vehicles and tracks must therefore in terms of their elastic properties and damping be coordinated.
Die Nachgiebigkeit eines Gleises setzt sich aus den Nachgiebigkeiten aller Komponenten des Gleisbaus zusammen. Das betrifft den Ober- und Unterbau ebenso wie den Untergrund. Neben den Schienen liefern insbesondere die Schienenbefestigungen, Zwischenlagen, Schwellen, die Bettung und das Planum Anteile zur Gleisnachgiebigkeit.The flexibility of a track is made up of the flexibility of everyone Components of the track construction together. This affects the upper and lower structure just like the underground. In addition to the rails, the Rail fastenings, intermediate layers, sleepers, the bedding and the level Proportions to compliance.
An bestimmten Orten oder Abschnitten des Gleises kann sich die Nachgiebigkeit im Laufe der Zeit verändern. Dabei treten langsame und schnelle Änderungen auf. Langsame Änderungen können insbesondere durch Alterungsprozesse an den Komponenten des Gleisbaus verursacht werden, während schnelle Änderungen vorwiegend durch wechselnde klimatische Einwirkungen oder durch bauliche Änderungen entstehen. Weiterhin existieren Variationen in der Nachgiebigkeit entlang des Gleisverlaufes, beispielsweise infolge unterschiedlicher Gleisbautechnologien, oder wenn im Streckenverlauf unterschiedliche geologische Untergrundverhältnisse auftreten. Hinzu kommen Inhomogenitäten in der Nachgiebigkeit durch örtliche Störungen. Hierzu zählen Übergänge, partielle Schwellen-Hohllagen oder auch ein Wechsel von neu durchgearbeiteten zu gealterten Gleislage-Abschnitten und umgekehrt. At certain locations or sections of the track, the compliance may increase change over time. Slow and fast changes occur on. Slow changes can be caused in particular by aging processes caused on the components of the track construction, while rapid changes mainly due to changing climatic influences or arise from structural changes. There are also variations in the flexibility along the track, for example due to different Track construction technologies, or if different in the course of the route geological subsurface conditions occur. There are also inhomogeneities in compliance by local disturbances. This includes transitions, partial threshold hollow layers or a change from newly worked through to aged track sections and vice versa.
Ein sich im Gleis fortbewegendes Schienenfahrzeug ist immer zwei verschiedenartigen Anregungsmechanismen unterworfen, die für das Auftreten von dynamischen Kräfte zwischen den Rädern des Schienenfahrzeuges und dem Gleis verantwortlich sind. Das sind zum einen Anregungen durch den Verlauf der Gleisgeometrie selbst einschließlich vorhandener Gleislagefehler. Zum anderen sind dies Anregungen durch die Nachgiebigkeit der Gleise und im Besonderen die dynamischen Effekte durch unterschiedliche aufeinanderfolgende Nachgiebigkeiten im Gleisverlauf, die bei starken Änderungen beträchtliche und sogar bedrohliche Ausmaße annehmen können. Im Zuge von Maßnahmen zur Gleisinstandhaltung kommt es demnach darauf an, neben dem Erkennen von geometrischen Gleislagefehlern auch den Verlauf der Gleisnachgiebigkeit durch Messungen zu ermitteln, um diesen durch geeignete Maßnahmen in einem vorgegebenen Toleranzbereich gewährleisten oder wiederherstellen zu können.A rail vehicle moving in the track is always two different types Subject to excitation mechanisms for the occurrence of dynamic forces between the wheels of the rail vehicle and the Track are responsible. On the one hand, there are suggestions from the course the track geometry itself including any track position errors. On the other hand these are suggestions due to the flexibility of the tracks and in particular the dynamic effects from different successive Resilience in the course of the track, which is considerable when there are major changes can even take on threatening proportions. In the course of measures to Track maintenance therefore depends on the detection of geometric track position errors also the course of the track compliance To determine measurements in order to take appropriate measures in a given To be able to guarantee or restore the tolerance range.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabenstellung ist es nach dem Stand der Technik bekannt, insbesondere auf dem Wege von Messfahrten kontinuierlich und berührungslos die Lage der Schienen über deren Profilverlauf beidseitig des Gleises zu ermitteln und aufzuzeichnen. Anschaulich werden Messvorrichtungen und Verfahren hierfür in den Schriften DE 34 41 092 C2 sowie DE 195 31 336 C2 beschrieben. Als Bezugssystem kommt dabei eine kreiselstabilisierte inertiale Plattform auf dem Messfahrzeug zum Einsatz, deren Lage in einem absoluten Koordinatensystem bestimmbar ist. Gleichzeitig mit der Lage der inertialen Plattform wird die vertikale und horizontale Position der Schienen relativ zu dieser über eine Messkette bestimmt. Die Messkette besteht aus Vektor-Abstandsmesssystemen welche die Abstandsvektoren von der Plattform bis zu den Montagepunkten so genannter Messköpfe erfassen, die ihrerseits die vertikalen und horizontalen Abstände zu den Schienen nahe am Radaufstandspunkt messen.. Nach der DE 195 31 336 C2 kommt für Messungen in der vertikalen und horizontalen Ebene das Verfahren der optischen Triangulation zur Anwendung. Um Fehler bei den Abtastmessungen an den naturgemäß gewölbten und geneigten Oberflächen der Schienenköpfe infolge von Translationsbewegungen des Schienenfahrzeuges auszugleichen, wird außerdem eine orthogonale optische Nachführung sowohl der vertikalen als auch der horizontalen Messanordnung vorgesehen. Dabei wird ein Lichtstrahl für die vertikale Antastung der Schiene in horizontaler Richtung in Abhängigkeit vom Ausgangssignal des horizontalen Messsystems und umgekehrt ein Lichtstrahl für die horizontale Antastung in vertikaler Richtung mit dem Ausgangssignal des vertikalen Messsystems angesteuert. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass die Antastspuren für die vertikalen und für die horizontalen Messungen stets geradlinig und beispielsweise in der Mitte des Schienenkopfes verlaufen.To solve this task, it is known in the prior art continuously and without contact, especially on the way of measurement runs the position of the rails over their profile course on both sides of the track to determine and record. Measuring devices and Methods for this in the documents DE 34 41 092 C2 and DE 195 31 336 C2 described. A gyro-stabilized inertial is used as the reference system Platform used on the measuring vehicle, its location in an absolute Coordinate system can be determined. Simultaneously with the location of the inertial Platform is relative to the vertical and horizontal position of the rails this is determined via a measuring chain. The measuring chain consists of vector distance measuring systems which are the distance vectors from the platform to the mounting points of so-called measuring heads, which in turn record the vertical and horizontal distances to the rails close to the wheel contact point measure .. According to DE 195 31 336 C2 comes for measurements in the vertical and the horizontal plane to apply the method of optical triangulation. To errors in the scanning measurements on the naturally curved and inclined surfaces of the rail heads due to translational movements to compensate for the rail vehicle also becomes an orthogonal optical one Tracking of the vertical as well as the horizontal measuring arrangement intended. A beam of light is used for vertical probing Rail in the horizontal direction depending on the output signal of the horizontal Measuring system and vice versa a light beam for horizontal probing in the vertical direction with the output signal of the vertical measuring system driven. This ensures that the traces for the vertical and for the horizontal measurements always straight and for example run in the middle of the rail head.
Nach einer anderen Lösung, die in DE 200 21 678 beschrieben ist, wird ein Messrahmen als Bezugsbasis verwendet, der zur Bestimmung seiner Lage und seines Winkels in einem absoluten Koordinatensystem eine Kombination aus dem differentiell arbeitendem Ortungssystem DGPS mit einem inertialen Navigationssystem INS nutzt. Es werden damit Genauigkeiten im Millimeterbereich erreicht. Relativmessungen der Schienenköpfe in Bezug zu der Messplattform werden durch Ultraschallmessköpfe vorgenommen. Ein orthogonales Nachführen der Messköpfe zur Gewährleistung geradliniger Antastspuren erfolgt dabei nicht.According to another solution, which is described in DE 200 21 678, a Measuring frame used as a reference base to determine its position and a combination of its angle in an absolute coordinate system the differential working positioning system DGPS with an inertial navigation system INS uses. This results in accuracies in the millimeter range reached. Relative measurements of the rail heads in relation to the measuring platform are carried out by ultrasonic measuring heads. Orthogonal tracking the measuring heads to ensure straight-line probing traces Not.
Mit den beschriebenen Verfahren und Messanordnungen ist es bekannt, die Lage der Schienen in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Radaufstandspunkt und somit unter der Last eines in bestimmungsgemäßer Weise beaufschlagten Radsatzes zu messen. Verfahrenslösungen zur Bestimmung der Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises machen es indessen erforderlich, dass ein weiteres Mal am selben Messpunkt und unter Verwendung vergleichbarer Messanordnungen die Lage der Schienen dann gemessen wird, wenn diese nicht durch eine Last beaufschlagt werden. Erst so wird es möglich, über die Längendifferenz der Einsenkungen aus den Messungen mit und ohne Last und unter Bezugnahme auf die Größe derselben die Gleisnachgiebigkeit wertmäßig zu beschreiben. Zur Messung der dabei jeweils einwirkenden Last wird zweckmäßigerweise auf die Verwendung von bekannten Messradsätzen nach dem Stand der Technik zurückgegriffen.With the described methods and measuring arrangements, it is known that Location of the rails in the immediate vicinity of the wheel contact point and thus under the load of a wheel set that is loaded in the intended manner to eat. Process solutions for determining the flexibility of the track make it necessary, however, that one more time at the same measurement point and using comparable measuring arrangements, the location of the Rails is measured when it is not loaded by a load become. This is the only way to determine the difference in length of the depressions from measurements with and without load and with reference to size to describe the flexibility of the track in terms of value. To measure the each load acting on it is expedient to use of known measuring wheel sets according to the prior art.
Um zusätzlich zur Lage der Schienen unmittelbar am Radaufstandspunkt und somit unter Last auch die Lage der Schienen ohne Last ermitteln zu können, ist es bekannt, Messfahrzeuge mit dafür speziell hergerichteten Laufachsen einzusetzen. Dabei handelt es sich um Laufachsen, die unter dem Messfahrzeug zumeist mittig angeordnet sind und in solcher Weise lediglich geführt werden, dass sie nur sehr geringe Lasten auf die Schienen übermitteln. An den Laufachsen befinden sich Messanordnungen, die denjenigen an den Rädern des belasteten Radsatzes entsprechen. Nachteilig an Messfahrzeugen dieser Art ist indessen, dass diese einen größeren Herstellungsaufwand bedingen und aufgrund ihrer speziellen Bauform zudem als Sonderfahrzeuge eingestuft sind, wodurch sie besonderen betrieblichen Einschränkungen unterliegen.In addition to the position of the rails directly at the wheel contact point and thus the position of the rails without load can also be determined under load it is known to use measuring vehicles with specially prepared axes. These are running axles under the measuring vehicle are usually arranged in the middle and are only guided in such a way, that they transmit very little loads to the rails. On the barrel axles there are measuring arrangements that those on the wheels of the correspond to the loaded wheel set. A disadvantage of this type of measuring vehicle however, that these require a greater manufacturing effort and due to their special design are also classified as special vehicles, whereby they are subject to special operational restrictions.
Zur Lösung der Messaufgabe ist es weiterhin bekannt, zwei Messfahrzeuge für das Ausführen von Messfahrten miteinander zu verbinden. Von diesen beiden Messfahrzeugen weist das erstere eine hinreichend hohe, zumindest aber eisenbahntypische Masse auf, während im zweiten Messfahrzeug spezielle Maßnahmen getroffen werden, um dessen Masse soweit wie möglich zu reduzieren. Von dem ersten Messfahrzeug werden nun die Funktionen zur Messung der Gleislage unter belasteten Radsätzen wahrgenommen. Das zweite Messfahrzeug dagegen nimmt die Gleislage unter weitgehend entlasteten Radsätzen auf. Beide Messfahrzeug weisen dazu Messanordnungen nach dem bekannten Stand der Technik auf. Nachteilig an dieser Technologie ist dagegen, dass weiterhin spezielle Messfahrzeuge außerhalb der Regelbauart benötigt werden. Die Masse des als leicht eingesetzten Messfahrzeuges lässt sich darüber hinaus nur bis zu einem Mindestmaß reduzieren. Die entsprechenden Messungen können somit nicht gänzlich ohne Last durchgeführt werden.It is also known to solve the measurement task, two measurement vehicles for carrying out measurement runs. Of these two The former has a sufficiently high measuring vehicle, but at least typical mass on the railway, while in the second measuring vehicle special Measures are taken to reduce its mass as much as possible. The functions for measuring are now made from the first measuring vehicle the track position perceived under loaded wheelsets. The second measuring vehicle on the other hand, the track position under largely relieved wheel sets on. For this purpose, both measuring vehicles have measuring arrangements according to the known one State of the art. A disadvantage of this technology, however, is that special measuring vehicles outside the standard design are still required. The mass of the measuring vehicle, which is used as a lightweight, can also be measured only reduce to a minimum. The corresponding measurements cannot be carried out entirely without load.
Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Messverfahren und eine Anordnung zum Erfassen der Nachgiebigkeit eines Gleises zu schaffen, mit denen eine lückenlose kontinuierliche Erfassung der Nachgiebigkeit von Gleisen in Gemeinsamkeit mit Messungen zur geometrischen Gleislage mit hoher Messgeschwindigkeit bis hin zur Streckenhöchstgeschwindigkeit ausführbar sind, wobei die dafür erforderlichen Messsysteme auf Messfahrzeugen nach Regelbauart installiert sind.The invention is therefore based on the object of a measuring method and an arrangement to create the flexibility of a track with which to create a complete continuous recording of the flexibility of tracks in common with measurements on the geometric track position with high measuring speed up to Maximum line speed can be carried out, with the necessary measuring systems are installed on measuring vehicles according to the standard design.
Diese Aufgabe wird in Verbindung mit dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches erfindungsgemäß gelöst, indem von einem ersten Messsystem Messungen der Vertikallage sowie der Horizontallage beider Schienen eines Gleises in unmittelbarer Nähe der Radaufstandspunkte eines zu einem Messfahrzeug gehörenden Radsatzes unter Last erfolgen, wozu Messköpfe in vertikaler und horizontaler Anordnung verwendet werden, die sich an einem Messrahmen befinden, der quasistarr mit den Achslagern verbunden ist. Für die Messungen der Vertikallage und der Horizontallage ohne eine Last wird ein zweites Messsystem vorzugsweise in der Mitte des Messfahrzeuges verwendet, das sich an einem Systemträger befindet, der über mechanische Ausgleichseinrichtungen verfügt, welche die dort installierten vertikal und horizontal angeordneten Messköpfe bei Translations- und Rotationsbewegungen des Fahrzeugrahmens während der Fahrt sowie beim Auswandern der Schienen in Bögen in entgegengesetztem Sinn stets so verschiebt, dass ein hinreichend konstanter Abstand zu den Schienen gewährleistet bleibt. Die Vertikallage und die Horizontallage der Schienen werden an dem zweiten Messsystem gemessen, wenn sich das Messfahrzeug kontinuierlich jeweils um eine halbe Länge fortbewegt hat, und die Messköpfe sich somit dann an dem vorher unter Last bestimmten Messpunkt befinden, wenn eine Einsenkung der Schienen infolge des Weiterwanderns und somit Nachlassens der Last örtlich abgeklungen ist.This object is achieved in connection with the preamble of the main claim solved by measuring the vertical position from a first measuring system and the horizontal position of both rails of a track in the immediate vicinity of the Wheel contact points of a wheelset belonging to a measuring vehicle under load take place, for which measuring heads are used in vertical and horizontal arrangement, which are located on a measuring frame that is quasi-rigidly connected to the axle bearings is. For the measurements of the vertical position and the horizontal position without a load, a second measuring system preferably used in the middle of the measuring vehicle is located on a system carrier, which has mechanical compensation devices which has the vertically and horizontally arranged measuring heads installed there Translational and rotational movements of the vehicle frame while driving as well when moving the rails in arches in the opposite sense, always shifted so that a sufficiently constant distance to the rails is guaranteed. The vertical position and the horizontal position of the rails are on the second measuring system measured when the measuring vehicle continuously by half Length has moved, and the measuring heads then on the previously under load certain measuring point if the rails are lowered due to the Wandering and thus easing the load has declined locally.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß weiterhin gelöst, indem als Bezugsbasis ein kreiselstabilisiertes Inertialsystem in einem absoluten Koordinatensystem verwendet wird, und die vertikalen sowie horizontalen Positionen der Schienen zur Bezugsbasis mittels vektorieller Abstandmessung und optischer Triangulation an den vertikal und horizontal angeordneten Messköpfen bestimmt werden.The object is further achieved according to the invention by using as a reference a gyro-stabilized inertial system in an absolute coordinate system is used, and the vertical and horizontal positions of the rails as a reference base using vectorial distance measurement and optical triangulation can be determined on the vertically and horizontally arranged measuring heads.
Mit der gefundenen erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung und dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird es ermöglicht, unabhängig voneinander die Vertikallage und die Horizontallage der Schienen mit Last und ohne Last für jeweils denselben Messpunkt zu ermitteln, daraus Längendifferenzen der Vertikallagen und der Horizontallagen mit und ohne Last zu bestimmen und aus dem Verhältnis dieser Längendifferenzen zu der Größe der Last einen Wert über die Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises abzuleiten. Die Last setzt sich dabei in der Vertikalrichtung aus einem statischen Anteil, der der Radlast entspricht, zusammen sowie aus einem dynamischen Anteil. In der Horizontalrichtung besteht die Last aus einem statischen Anteil, der dem Formschluss der Rad-Schiene-Kontaktfläche entspricht und aus einem dynamischen Anteil der Horizontalkraft.With the inventive arrangement found and the inventive The method enables the vertical position to be independent of each other and the horizontal position of the rails with and without load for the same Determine measuring point, from this differences in length of the vertical layers and to determine the horizontal positions with and without load and from the ratio this length difference to the size of the load gives a value about the compliance of the track. The load settles in the vertical direction from a static part, which corresponds to the wheel load, as well as from a dynamic part. In the horizontal direction, the load consists of one static component that corresponds to the form-fit of the wheel-rail contact surface and from a dynamic part of the horizontal force.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungsform der Anordnung befinden sich die an beiden Messsystemen jeweils für die Messung der Vertikallage angeordneten Messköpfe stets oberhalb der Schienenoberkante der Schienen, während die Messköpfe für die Messung der Horizontallage so angeordnet sind, dass diese immer im Spurkranzschatten eines Rades bleiben. Die Messköpfe befinden sich dadurch immer nahe genug an den Schienen und können andererseits nicht durch Anlaufen an Hindernisse zerstört werden.According to an advantageous embodiment of the arrangement arranged on both measuring systems for measuring the vertical position Measuring heads always above the top edge of the rails, while the measuring heads for measuring the horizontal position are arranged so that these always remain in the wheel flange shadow. The measuring heads are always close enough to the rails and on the other hand can not be destroyed by bumping into obstacles.
Besonders nützlich für die Anwendung der Erfindung ist es, optische Nachführeinrichtungen der bekannten Art für die vertikalen und horizontalen Messköpfe vorzusehen. So wird der Lichtstrahl für die vertikale Antastung der Schienen in horizontaler Richtung in Abhängigkeit vom Ausgangssignal des horizontalen Messsystems und der Lichtstrahl für die horizontale Antastung der Schienen in vertikaler Richtung mit dem Ausgangssignal des vertikalen Messsystems angesteuert. Dadurch verlaufen die Antastspuren für die vertikalen und für die horizontalen Messungen immer geradlinig.Optical tracking devices are particularly useful for the application of the invention of the known type for the vertical and horizontal measuring heads provided. This is how the light beam is used for vertical probing of the rails in the horizontal direction depending on the output signal of the horizontal Measuring system and the light beam for horizontal probing of the rails in the vertical direction with the output signal of the vertical measuring system driven. As a result, the contact traces run for the vertical and for the horizontal measurements always straight.
Die Erfindung sieht weiterhin vor, dass die Ausgleichseinrichtungen am zweiten Messsystem, welches zur Messung der Schienenlagen ohne Last dient, über mechanische Einrichtungen zum horizontalen Ausgleich und über mechanische Einrichtungen zum vertikalen Ausgleich an den Messköpfen zur Messung der Vertikallage und an den Messköpfen zur Messung der Horizontallage und außerdem über Einrichtungen zum Rollwinkelausgleich verfügen.The invention further provides that the compensation devices on second measuring system, which is used to measure the rail positions without load, about mechanical devices for horizontal compensation and about mechanical Devices for vertical compensation on the measuring heads for measurement the vertical position and on the measuring heads for measuring the horizontal position and also have facilities for roll angle compensation.
Der besondere Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass mit ihrer Anwendung die Gleisnachgiebigkeit im Rahmen von Gleisinspektionsfahrten lückenlos und kontinuierlich erfassbar ist, und unmittelbar mit der Beurteilung der geometrischen Gleislage einhergehen kann. Durch eine Verwendung von Messfahrzeugen nach Regelbauart kann dabei eine hohe Messgeschwindigkeit bis hin zur Streckenhöchstgeschwindigkeit gefahren werden.The particular advantage of the invention is that with its application the track compliance in the course of track inspection runs without gaps and is continuously recordable, and immediately with the assessment of the geometric Track position can go hand in hand. By using measuring vehicles Depending on the rule type, a high measuring speed up to Maximum line speed can be driven.

Gemäß der Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 weist ein Messfahrzeug 3 ein erstes Messsystem
1 sowie ein zweites Messsystem 2 auf. Nach bekannten inertialen Messverfahren
wird von einer inertialen Bezugsbasis 4 aus mit dem ersten Messsystem
1 für jeden Messpunkt x0 die Vertikallage z und die Horizontallage y von
Schienen 5 unmittelbar neben den Radaufstandspunkten der beiden Räder
eines Radsatzes 6 gemessen. Das erste Messsystem 1 ist dazu mit Messköpfen
7 zur Messung der Vertikallage z und der Horizontallage y der Schienen 5
eines Gleises ausgestattet, die die reale Lage der Schienen 5 gegenüber der
inertialen Bezugsbasis 4 ermitteln. Unter der über die Räder 6 eingeleiteten
Last weisen die Schienen 5 dabei vertikale Verschiebungen in Form von Einsenkungen
sowie horizontale Verschiebungen infolge des kraftbelasteten Formschlusses
der Rad-Schiene-Kontaktfläche gegenüber den unbelasteten Abschnitten
des Gleises auf. Als unbelasteter Abschnitt gilt neben den Bereichen
vor und hinter dem Messfahrzeug 3 auch der Bereich der Schienen 5 etwa in
der Mitte des Messfahrzeuges 3. Dort befindet sich das zweite Messsystem 2,
welches ebenfalls mit Messköpfen 7 zur Messung der Vertikallage z und der
Horizontallage y der Schienen 5 versehen ist, die die reale Lage gegenüber der
inertialen Bezugsbasis 4 ermitteln. Mit dem zweiten Messsystem 2 werden die
Messungen der Vertikallagen z und der Horizontallagen y der Schienen 5 wiederholt,
wenn sich das Messfahrzeug 3 um eine halbe Fahrzeuglänge vorwärts
bewegt hat, wodurch das zweite Messsystem 2 seinerseits an dem Messpunkt
x0 angelangt ist.According to FIGS. 1 and 2, a measuring
Zur Erfassung der vertikalen Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises wird wie folgt vorgegangen:
Man erhält zunächst aus den Messungen jeweils für beide Schienen
5 des Gleises die Größe der Vertikallage zLast der Schienenoberkante unter
dem Radaufstandspunkt. Dieser Radaufstandspunkt entspricht dem Messpunkt
x0. Die Größe der Vertikallage zkeineLast für denselben Messpunkt x0 wird ermittelt,
wenn sich das Fahrzeug um eine halbe Länge weiter bewegt hat.. Die Differenzbildung
der beiden Größen führt zu einem Wert für die Längendifferenz
Δz in der vertikalen Ebene.
Die Längendifferenz Δz wird weiterhin in Bezug gesetzt zu der Größe der Last
Q, die nach bekannten Messverfahren beispielsweise mit einem Messradsatz
bestimmbar ist. Es ergibt sich somit ein Maß für die Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises
Nv - respektive seiner beiden Schienen 5 - in der vertikalen Ebene.
Es wird dabei berücksichtigt, dass sich die Last Q zusammensetzt aus einer statischen
Radlast Q 0 und einem dynamischen Anteil Qdyn .
Weil der dynamische Anteil Qdyn stets kleiner bleibt als die statische Radlast Q 0, ist die Last Q immer größer als Null, und der Quotient für die Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises Nv ist immer definiert.Because the dynamic component Q dyn always remains smaller than the static wheel load Q 0 , the load Q is always greater than zero and the quotient for the flexibility of the track N v is always defined.
In entsprechender Weise analog wird bei der Erfassung und Beurteilung der horizontalen
Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises, beziehungsweise der Schienen 5, verfahren. Man
erhält am Messpunkt x0 zunächst aus den Messungen jeweils für beide Schienen
5 des Gleises die Größe für die Horizontallage yLast der Schienenflanken
unter dem Radaufstandspunkt und sodann die Größe für die Horizontallage
ykeineLast für denselben Messpunkt x0, wenn die Last wieder abgeklungen ist. Die
Differenzbildung der beiden Größen führt zu einem Wert für die Längendifferenz
Δz in der horizontalen Ebene.
Die Längendifferenz Δy wird in Bezug gesetzt zur Größe der Querlast Y , die
ebenfalls mit einem bekannten Messradsatz bestimmbar ist, und ergibt somit
ein Maß für die Nachgiebigkeit des Gleises NH - respektive seiner beiden
Schienen 5 - in der horizontalen Ebene.
Dabei wird berücksichtigt, dass sich die in der horizontalen Ebene einstellende Querlast
Y zusammensetzt aus einem statischen Anteil, der Formschlusskraft Y F , und einem
dynamischen Anteil Y dyn .
Figur 2 zeigt die Anordnung eines ersten und eines zweiten Messsystems 1 und 2
auf einem Messfahrzeug 3. Das Messfahrzeug 3 weist zwei Drehgestelle mit je zwei
Radsätzen 6 auf. Dem ersten Messsystem 1 sind Messköpfe 7 solcherart zugeordnet,
dass Messungen der Vertikallage z und der Horizontallage y der Schienen 5 in unmittelbarer
Nähe zu den Rädern des Radsatzes 6 möglich sind. Die Messköpfe 7 sind gemäß
der Figur 3 an einem Messrahmen 14 angeordnet, der sich mit Achslagern 15 des
Radsatzes 6 in einer quasistarren Verbindung befindet. Die in einer horizontalen und in
einer vertikalen Ebene angeordneten Messköpfe 7 sind mit Abstandssensoren nach
dem Messverfahren der optischen Triangulation ausgestattet, womit in Verbindung mit
den Vektor-Abstandsmesssystemen 9 Messungen der relativen Lagen der Schienen 5
gegenüber der inertialen Bezugsbasis 4 ermöglicht werden. Das Messsystem 1
verfügt außerdem über Nachführeinrichtungen in den in der vertikalen und in
der horizontalen Ebene angeordneten Messköpfen 7. Durch die Nachführeinrichtungen
werden Lichtstrahlen zur Antastung der Schiene 5 in dem horizontal
messenden Messkopf 7 und in dem vertikal messenden Messkopf 7 so nachgeregelt,
dass der vertikal messende Messkopf 7 stets auf einer frei wählbaren
aber dann festen Antastlinie - beispielsweise der Schienenmitte - den vertikalen
Abstand des Messkopfes 7 von der Schiene 5 erfasst, während der horizontal
messende Messkopf 7 ebenfalls auf einer frei wählbaren aber dann festen
Antastlinie - beispielsweise 14 mm unter der Schienenoberkante - den horizontalen
Abstand zwischen der Schiene 5 und dem Messkopf 7 bestimmt. Hierzu
wird eine Stellgröße zur Nachregelung des vertikal messenden Messkopfes
7 vom zugeordneten horizontal messenden Messkopf 7 und die Stellgröße zur
Nachregelung des horizontal messenden Messkopfes 7 vom zugeordneten vertikal
messenden Messkopf 7 ermittelt. Die Messköpfe 7 sind so geformt, dass
der für die Messung der Vertikallage z vorgesehene Messkopf 7 stets oberhalb
der Schienenoberkante der Schiene 5 in Position bleibt, während der Messkopf
7 für die Messung der Horizontallage y immer im Spurkranzschatten des Rades
läuft.FIG. 2 shows the arrangement of a first and a
Die für die Messungen der Vertikallage z und der Horizontallage y der Schiene
5 jeweils maßgebenden Größen werden aus Superposition der ermittelten
Abstandsmesswerte der Messköpfe 7 zur Schienenoberkante beziehungsweise
zur Schienenflanke mit denjenigen Längenwerten gewonnen, um die die Nachführeinrichtungen
13 während der Messungen aus ihren Neutrallagen heraus
ausgelenkt werden.The for measuring the vertical position z and the horizontal position y of the
Das erste Messsystem 1 und das zweite Messsystem 2 verfügen außerdem
über Lichtquellen 8 sowie Vektor-Abstandsmesssysteme 9, wobei sich die
Vektor-Abstandsmesssysteme 9 zusammen mit der inertialen Bezugsbasis 4
auf einer gemeinsamen Messplattform 10 befinden. Wegaufnehmer 12 überwachen
dabei den Abstand der Messplattform 10 gegenüber dem Fahrzeugrahmen
11, der beispielsweise infolge von Schwingungen des Messfahrzeuges 3 bestimmten
Variationen unterliegt.The
Das zweite Messsystem 2 ist etwa in der Mitte des Messfahrzeuges 3 angeordnet.
Gemäß der Figur 4 verfügt es ebenfalls über Messköpfe 7 für die Messung
der Vertikallage z und der Horizontallage y der Schienen 5. Der wesentliche
Unterschied gegenüber dem ersten Messsystem 1 besteht nun darin, dass
die Messköpfe 7 des zweiten Messsystems 2 nicht in der unmittelbaren Nähe
eines Radsatzes 6 angeordnet sind, sondern frei an den Schienen 5 entlang
gleiten. Für Messungen der relativen Lage der Schienen 5 gegenüber der inertialen
Bezugsbasis 4 in der vertikalen und in der horizontalen Ebene verfügen auch
diese Messköpfe 7 über Abstandssensoren nach dem Messverfahren der optischen
Triangulation. Die Messköpfe 7 des zweiten Messsystems 2 sind jedoch
nicht an einem quasistarr mit den Achslagern 15 verbundenen Messrahmen 14
befestigt, sondern befinden sich an einem Systemträger 16, welcher beweglich
mit einer Traverse 19 am Fahrzeugrahmen 11 befestigt ist. Dieser verfügt über
Ausgleichseinrichtungen 17 für die in der vertikalen und in der horizontalen Ebene
angeordneten Messköpfe 7. Mit den Ausgleichseinrichtungen 17 werden
die Translationsbewegungen des Fahrzeugrahmens 11 während der Fahrt sowie Bewegungen
beim Auswandern der Schienen 5 in Bögen und Weichen in entgegengesetztem
Sinn stets so ausgeglichen, dass ein hinreichend konstanter Abstand der in der
vertikalen und horizontalen Ebene angeordneten Messköpfe 7 zu den Schienen 5 gewährleistet
ist. Die Ausgleichseinrichtungen 17 werden von dem vertikal messenden
Messkopf 7 in horizontaler Richtung und von dem horizontal messenden
Messkopf 7 in vertikaler Richtung gesteuert. Der Systemträger 16 weist außerdem
einen Rollwinkelausgleicher 18 auf, der Rotationsbewegungen des Fahrzeugrahmens
11 ausgleicht.The

die die Ausgleichseinrichtungen 17 aus ihrer Neutrallage heraus verfahren wurden,
