Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Maschine mit den im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 angeführten Merkmalen.The invention relates to a machine with the features cited in the preamble of claim 1.

Durch DE-B-1240909 ist eine Aufnahmevorrichtung für Schwellen mit den im Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches angeführten Merkmalen bekannt. Zusätzlich zu der oberhalb der Schwellenkufen positionierten Transportkette ist noch eine zweite Transportkette vorgesehen. Diese übernimmt die Schwellen von den Schwellenkufen und transportiert sie bis zum Aufnahmeende der Schwellentransportvorrichtung. Mit einer derartigen Ausbildung ist ein zahnradartiges, nachteiliges Eingreifen der beiden Transportketten im Übergabebereich erforderlich.By DE-B-1240909 is a receiving device for sleepers with the features mentioned in the preamble of the main claim known. In addition to the transport chain positioned above the threshold skids, a second transport chain is still provided. This takes over the sleepers from the threshold skids and transports them to the receiving end of the threshold transport device. With such a training a gear-like, adverse intervention of the two transport chains in the transfer area is required.

Eine weitere Maschine ist beispielsweise durch US 5 357 867 bekannt. Die im Rahmen einer Gleiserneuerung zu entfernenden alten Schwellen werden durch die Schwellenaufnahmevorrichtung von der Schotterbettung abgehoben und auf der Maschine zwischengelagert. Die vorerst durch die Schwellenkufen erfaßte Schwelle wird mittels einer verschwenk- und höhenverstellbaren Gabel erfaßt, angehoben und mit der Schwellenunterseite auf ein Mitnahmeorgan der endlosen Transportkette abgelegt. Diese transportiert schließlich die Schwelle zu der höher gelegenen Schwellentransporteinheit.For example, another machine is through US 5,357,867 known. The old sleepers to be removed as part of a track renewal are lifted off the ballast bed by the sleepers and stored on the machine. The initially detected by the threshold skids threshold is detected by means of a swivel and height-adjustable fork, raised and stored with the threshold underside on a driving member of the endless transport chain. This finally transports the threshold to the higher threshold transport unit.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun in der Schaffung einer Maschine der gattungsgemäßen Art, mit der eine leistungsfähigere Schwellenaufnahme möglich ist.The object of the present invention is now to provide a machine of the generic type, with a more efficient threshold recording is possible.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe mit einer Maschine der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, die durch im Kennzeichen von Anspruch 1 angeführte Merkmale gekennzeichnet ist.According to the invention this object is achieved with a machine of the type mentioned above, which is characterized by the features cited in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Eine derartige Lösung hat den Vorteil, daß die zu entfernende Altschwelle beginnend von den Schwellenkufen bis zum oberen Ende der Schwellenaufnahmevorrichtung gleitend verschoben wird und somit ein leistungseinschränkender Übergabezyklus einer Einzelschwelle - wie eingangs beschrieben - entfällt. Es ergibt sich mit dieser konstruktiven Lösung eine Puffermöglichkeit im Bereich der Schwellenkufen, auf denen gegebenenfalls auch zwei unmittelbar benachbarte Schwellen vom Mitnahmeorgan erfaßbar und problemlos höhenverschiebbar sind. In besonders vorteilhafter Weise haben auf diese Weise auch bei einem Schienenstoß vorhandene Doppelschwellen keine Beeinträchtigung der Arbeitsleisung der Maschine zur Folge.Such a solution has the advantage that the old threshold to be removed is slid starting from the threshold skids to the upper end of the threshold receiving device and thus a performance-limiting transfer cycle of a single threshold - as described above - deleted. It follows with this constructive solution a buffer possibility in the range of threshold skids on which, where appropriate, two immediately adjacent thresholds of the driving member can be detected and easily height-displaced. In a particularly advantageous manner This way, even with a rail joint existing double thresholds no impairment of the working power of the machine result.

Weitere Vorteile und Ausbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der Zeichnung.Further advantages and embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and the drawings.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher beschrieben.In the following the invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing.

Eine in der Zeichnung in Seitenansicht dargestellte Schwellenaufnahmevorrichtung 1 zur Aufnahme von Schwellen 2 eines Gleises 3 ist mit einem Maschinenrahmen 4 einer für eine Gleiserneuerung vorgesehenen Maschine 5 verbunden. Diese ist über ein einen Fahrantrieb 6 aufweisendes Raupenfahrwerk 7 in einer Arbeitsrichtung 8 verfahrbar.A threshold receiving device 1 shown in the drawing in side view for receiving sleepers 2 of a track 3 is connected to a machine frame 4 provided for a track renewal machine 5. This can be moved in a working direction 8 via a crawler track 7 having a drive 6.

Die Schwellenaufnahmevorrichtung 1 besteht aus einer endlosen, mit Mitnahmeorganen 9 verbundenen, ein oberes und ein unteres Umlenkende 10, 11 aufweisenden Transportkette 12, der ein Rotationsantrieb 13 zugeordnet ist. Die Transportkette 12 ist in bezug auf eine durch die Umlenkenden 10,11 definierte Bezugslinie 30 in einem Winkel α zu einer Schotterbettung 14 geneigt angeordnet, der kleiner als 90° ist, wobei das untere Umlenkende 11 in Arbeitsrichtung 8 vor dem oberen Umlenkende 10 positioniert ist. Ein Abstand a zwischen zwei benachbarten Mitnahmeorganen 9 beträgt wenigstens das Zweifache einer Schwellenbreite b.The threshold receiving device 1 consists of an endless, with entrainment members 9 connected, an upper and a lower deflection end 10, 11 having transport chain 12, which is associated with a rotary drive 13. The transport chain 12 is inclined with respect to a defined by the deflecting 10,11 reference line 30 at an angle α to a ballast bed 14 which is smaller than 90 °, the lower deflecting end 11 is positioned in the working direction 8 in front of the upper deflecting end 10 , A distance a between two adjacent entrainment members 9 is at least twice a threshold width b.

Unterhalb des unteren Umlenkendes 11 befinden sich zwei in Schwellenlängsrichtung voneinander distanzierte Schwellenkufen 15, die durch eine in Maschinenlängsrichtung und parallel zur Transportkette 12 verlaufende Schwellengleitbahn 16 verlängert sind. Diese weist ein im Bereich eines Aufnahmeendes 17 einer Schwellentransporteinheit 18 gelegenes Übergabeende 19 auf.Below the lower deflecting end 11 are located in the threshold longitudinal direction spaced apart sleepers skids 15, which are extended by a running in the machine longitudinal direction and parallel to the transport chain 12 Schwellengleitbahn 16. This has a located in the region of a receiving end 17 of a threshold transport unit 18 transfer end 19.

Im Bereich des unteren Umlenkendes 11 und oberhalb der Schwellenkufen 15 ist ein Schwellenschieber 20 vorgesehen, der durch Antriebe 21, 22 um eine Achse 23 verschwenkbar bzw. in Maschinenlängsrichtung verschiebbar ist. Die Achse 23 verläuft mormal zur Maschinenlängsrichtung sowie horizontal. Ein durch die Schwellengleitbahn 16 und eine Kufengleitfläche 24 der Schwellenkufen 15 eingeschlossener Winkel β liegt vorzugsweise in einem Bereich von 130° bis 160°.In the area of the lower deflection end 11 and above the threshold runners 15, a threshold slide 20 is provided, which can be swiveled by drives 21, 22 about an axis 23 or displaceable in the machine longitudinal direction. The axis 23 is normal to the machine longitudinal direction and horizontal. An angle β enclosed by the sipe slideway 16 and a skid surface 24 of the sleeper skids 15 is preferably in a range of 130 ° to 160 °.

Im Arbeitseinsatz werden die Schwellenkufen 15 in einer kontinuierlichen Vorfahrt der Maschine 5 unter eine Schwellenunterseite 25 der zu entfernenden Schwelle 2 geschoben. Parallel dazu wird der Schwellenschieber 20 durch die Antriebe 21, 22 angehoben, nach vorne geschoben und unmittelbar vor der vorgeordneten Schwelle 2 abgesenkt (in vollen Linien dargestellte Position). Anschließend wird der Schwellenschieber 20 mitsamt der Schwelle 2 in Richtung zur Schwellengleitbahn 16 zurückgeschoben (s. strichpunktierte Schwelle). Inzwischen kommen durch eine Rotation der Transportkette 12 Mitnahmeorgane 9 zur Anlage an eine vordere Schwellenseitenfläche 26 und schieben damit die Schwelle 2 in einer durch einen Pfeil 27 aufgezeigten Richtung die Schwellengleitbahn 16 entlang. Dieser Zyklus zur Schwellenaufnahme wiederholt sich unter kontinuierlicher Vorfahrt der Maschine 5, während parallel durch permanente Rotation der Transportkette 12 die auf der Schwellengleitbahn 16 befindlichen Schwellen 2 in Richtung zum Aufnahmeende 17 transportiert werden. Sobald dieses erreicht ist, wird eine Umlenkklappe 28 um eine normal zur Maschinenlängsrichtung verlaufende Achse 29 verschwenkt und damit die Schwelle 2 auf das Aufnahmeende 17 befördert.In labor use the threshold runners 15 are pushed in a continuous right of way of the machine 5 below a threshold bottom 25 of the threshold 2 to be removed. In parallel, the threshold slider 20 is lifted by the drives 21, 22, pushed forward and lowered immediately before the upstream threshold 2 (shown in full line position). Subsequently, the threshold slide 20 is pushed back together with the threshold 2 in the direction of the threshold sliding track 16 (see dash-dotted threshold). Meanwhile, by a rotation of the transport chain 12 driving members 9 come to rest against a front threshold side surface 26 and thus push the threshold 2 in a direction indicated by an arrow 27 the Schwellengleitbahn 16 along. This cycle for threshold recording is repeated with continuous right of way of the machine 5, while the thresholds 2 located on the threshold slide track 16 are transported parallel to the receiving end 17 by permanent rotation of the transport chain 12. As soon as this is achieved, a deflection flap 28 is pivoted about an axis 29 running normal to the machine longitudinal direction and thus the threshold 2 is conveyed to the receiving end 17.

Ein besonderer Vorteil dieser Schwellenaufnahmevorrichtung 1 liegt darin, daß bei entsprechend rascher Vorfahrt der Maschine 5 problemlos eine zweite Schwelle 2 auf die Kufengleitfläche 24 schiebbar ist und beide Schwellen 2 gemeinsam durch ein Mitnahmeorgan 9 hochtransportierbar sind.A particular advantage of this threshold receiving device 1 is that with a correspondingly rapid right of way of the machine 5, a second threshold 2 is easily slidable on the Kufengleitfläche 24 and both sleepers 2 are jointly transported by a drive member 9.
