Abstract

The railway track has a rail (11) fixed to the sleepers at regular intervals and an enclosure to cover the rail on both sides. The enclosure (18) has two flexible support profiles (14) fixed to the foot of the rail and extending between the sleepers. Alternatively, the rail sections can have concrete casings to allow use of prefabricated sections.

Description

La présente invention concerne un rail enveloppé dans un enrobage pour l'installation de voies ferrées dans une voirie.The present invention relates to a rail wrapped in a coating for the installation of railways in a road.

Dans l'installation de voies ferrées, le problème se situe principalement à trois niveaux :

  • a) Au niveau de la mise en place des rails ;
  • b) Au niveau de la maintenance de la voie en cours d'exploitation ;
  • c) Au niveau de l'amortissement des vibrations et des bruits lors de la circulation des voitures sur les rails.
In the railway installation, the problem is mainly at three levels:
  • a) At the level of the installation of the rails;
  • b) At the maintenance level of the track in operation;
  • c) At the damping of vibrations and noise during the traffic of cars on the rails.

Il est connu, dans certaines applications, d'installer dans la voirie des rails enrobés dans un matériau relativement compact dans le but de conférer au rail une meilleure résistance mécanique aux dilatations et aux efforts engendrés par la circulation des voitures sur les rails. Un agencement de ce type se trouve décrit dans DE-A-19527468. Cette disposition a pour inconvénient principal que, une fois le rail installé, le remplacement d'un tronçon de rail nécessite de casser d'abord l'enrobage pour avoir accès aux dispositifs de fixation du tronçon de rail à remplacer et, après remplacement de celui-ci, de couler un nouvel enrobage. Tout ceci demande un temps d'exécution relativement long pendant lequel le trafic doit être interrompu. D'autre part, l'utilisation d'un matériau d'enrobage relativement compact ne présente pas les caractéristiques statiques et dynamiques requises pour assurer une isolation antivibratoire efficace.It is known, in some applications, to install in the road rails embedded in a relatively compact material in order to give the rail a better mechanical resistance to the expansions and efforts generated by the movement of cars on the rails. An arrangement of this type is described in DE-A-19527468. This arrangement has the main disadvantage that, once the rail installed, the replacement of a rail section requires first break the coating to have access to the fasteners of the rail section to replace and, after replacement of that here, to pour a new coating. All this requires a relatively long execution time during which the traffic must be interrupted. On the other hand, the use of a relatively compact coating material does not have the static and dynamic characteristics required to provide effective vibration isolation.

L'invention a pour but de pallier les inconvénients susmentionnés. A cet effet, elle propose un système de rail pour voie ferrée fixé à intervalles réguliers sur des selles et une gaine d'enrobage enrobant longitudinalement le rail sur ses deux côtés, dans lequel l'enrobage est constitué par un mortier d'enrobage reposant sur des profilés souples fixés au patin du rail et s'étendant entre les selles sur lesquelles est fixé le rail. L'enrobage est coulé dans une gouttière délimitée latéralement par des cornières fixées de façon amovible aux selles.The invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks. For this purpose, it proposes a railway rail system fixed at regular intervals on saddles and a coating sheath longitudinally coating the rail on both sides, wherein the coating consists of a coating mortar resting on flexible profiles fixed to the runner of the rail and extending between the saddles on which the rail is fixed. The coating is poured into a gutter delimited laterally by angles fixed removably to the stool.

La mise en place d'un rail peut ainsi se faire en un temps très court. Et par la suite, au cours de l'exploitation de la voie ferrée, lorsque l'on doit avoir accès aux dispositifs de fixation, par exemple pour le remplacement d'un tronçon de rail, il suffit de forer dans le mortier à l'emplacement des boulons de fixation du rail pour libérer le tronçon de rail, le retirer avec sa gaine d'enrobage et mettre en place et fixer un nouveau tronçon de rail en un temps très court, sans devoir interrompre le trafic de manière importante.The establishment of a rail can be done in a very short time. And subsequently, during the operation of the railway, when access to fastening devices is required, for example for the replacement of a section of rail, it is sufficient to drill in the mortar at the location of the rail fastening bolts to release the rail section, remove it with its coating sheath and set up and secure a new rail section in a very short time, without having to interrupt traffic significantly.

Dans un mode de réalisation avantageux, un tronçon de rail, les selles sur lesquelles le tronçon de rail est fixé et la gaine d'enrobage forment un ensemble logé dans un caisson prêt à être mis en place sur un site. La mise en place peut alors se faire en un temps très court par simple coulage du mortier d'enrobage 21 et la mise en circulation du trafic sur les rails peut être lancée sans attendre le durcissement du mortier d'enrobage.In an advantageous embodiment, a rail section, the saddles on which the rail section is fixed and the coating sheath form an assembly housed in a box ready to be placed on a site. The implementation can then be done in a very short time by simply pouring the coating mortar 21 and the circulation of traffic on the rails can be launched without waiting for the hardening of the coating mortar.

De plus, l'utilisation d'un matériau d'enrobage de densité relativement réduite et le choix des raideurs des semelles sous le rail favorisent la réalisation d'un niveau d'amortissement optimal des vibrations et bruits en cours d'exploitation de la voie ferrée.In addition, the use of a coating material of relatively low density and the choice of stiffness of the soles under the rail promote the achievement of an optimal damping level of vibrations and noise during operation of the track railway.

Dans les dessins, une même référence désigne un élément identique ou un élément similaire ou équivalent.In the drawings, the same reference designates an identical element or a similar element or equivalent.

Les figures 1 à 3 montrent un système de rail comprenant un rail 11 fixé à intervalles réguliers sur des selles 12 en acier avec interposition d'une semelle 13 en matière élastique. Le rail est fixé sur les selles au moyen de brides 15 et de boulons 17 avec rondelles. La selle 12 est munie de chaque côté d'une rainure longitudinale 16 destinée à recevoir une cornière 18 lors de la mise en place du rail, les deux cornières 18 formant les parois longitudinales d'une gouttière 19 longeant le rail 11 sur ses deux côtés. L'extrémité supérieure des cornières 18 vient se situer à environ 3 mm du bord supérieur du rail 11. Entre les selles 12 s'étendent des profilés 14 souples, en polyéthylène par exemple, qui sont fixés au patin du rail 11 et ont une largeur égale à l'écartement entre les cornières 18 (Fig. 4).Figures 1 to 3 show a rail system comprising a rail 11 fixed at regular intervals on saddles 12 steel with interposition of a sole 13 of elastic material. The rail is fixed to the saddles by means of flanges 15 and bolts 17 with washers. The seat 12 is provided on each side with a longitudinal groove 16 intended to receive an angle 18 during the installation of the rail, the two angles 18 forming the longitudinal walls of a channel 19 along the rail 11 on both sides . The upper end of the angles 18 comes to be located approximately 3 mm from the upper edge of the rail 11. Between the saddles 12 extend flexible sections 14, of polyethylene for example, which are fixed to the runner of the rail 11 and have a width equal to the spacing between the angles 18 (Fig. 4).

Après alignement des rails 11, la voirie 24 est bétonnée en une ou plusieurs phases. Lorsque le béton est durci, les cornières 18 peuvent être retirées (Fig. 5) et l'enrobage coulé dans la gouttière 19 qui s'étend le long des deux côtés du rail 11. L'enrobage est constitué d'un mortier de caoutchouc fluide élastique, exempt de retrait et ayant une compressibilité stable. Le mortier est par exemple constitué d'un mélange de résine époxy et de polyuréthane et un durcisseur d'amine cycloaliphatique insensible à l'eau. Le poids spécifique est de 0,7 kg/dm3 environ. La résistance à la traction est supérieure à environ 1 N/mm2. Le mortier mis en place est tassé jusqu'à un niveau de -28 mm par rapport au bord supérieur du rail 11. La localisation des dispositifs de fixation est repérée au moyen d'une marque permanente laissée dans le mortier. La surface supérieure du mortier est terminée avec un joint élastique 23 constitué du même composé que la masse du mortier mais ayant une densité plus élevée que celle-ci, par exemple une densité de 0,9 kg/dm3. Ce joint a pour but d'éviter l'infiltration des eaux de pluies dans la gouttière. La résistance à l'arrachement sur béton et acier est supérieure à environ 2,5 N/mm2. Entre la masse de la gaine et le joint est disposée une plaquette de séparation en matière plastique.After alignment of the rails 11, the road 24 is concreted in one or more phases. When the concrete is hardened, the angles 18 can be removed (FIG 5) and the coating cast in the channel 19 which extends along both sides of the rail 11. The coating consists of a rubber mortar elastic fluid, free of shrinkage and having stable compressibility. The mortar consists for example of a mixture of epoxy resin and polyurethane and a cycloaliphatic amine hardener insensitive to water. The specific weight is about 0.7 kg / dm 3 . The tensile strength is greater than about 1 N / mm 2 . The mortar put in place is packed to a level of -28 mm from the upper edge of the rail 11. The location of the fasteners is identified by means of a permanent mark left in the mortar. The upper surface of the mortar is finished with an elastic seal 23 made of the same compound as the mass of the mortar but having a density higher than this, for example a density of 0.9 kg / dm 3 . This seal is intended to prevent the infiltration of rainwater into the gutter. The peel strength on concrete and steel is greater than about 2.5 N / mm 2 . Between the mass of the sheath and the seal is disposed a plastic separating plate.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation, chacune des cornières 18 est montée en sens inverse, l'aile 22 étant orientée vers l'extérieur de la gouttière 19 (Fig. 6). Après réalisation du bétonnage de la voirie, on procède au coulage de l'enrobage dans la gouttière, les cornières 18 étant maintenues en place afin de renforcer les coins des dalles de béton de la voirie 24 (Fig. 7).In another embodiment, each of the brackets 18 is mounted in the opposite direction, the flange 22 being oriented towards the outside of the channel 19 (FIG 6). After completion of the concreting of the roadway, the coating is poured into the gutter, the angles 18 being held in place to strengthen the corners of the concrete slabs of the road 24 (Figure 7).

La surface des cornières devant venir en contact avec le mortier d'enrobage est de préférence recouverte d'un film destiné à faciliter l'enlèvement du mortier si nécessaire, par exemple lors du remplacement du rail.The surface of the angles to come into contact with the coating mortar is preferably covered with a film intended to facilitate the removal of the mortar if necessary, for example when replacing the rail.

Lorsque l'on doit avoir accès au dispositif de fixation, par exemple pour le remplacement d'un tronçon de rail, il suffit de forer dans le mortier à l'emplacement des boulons de fixation du rail pour libérer le tronçon de rail, le retirer avec son enrobage et mettre en place et fixer un nouveau tronçon de rail en un temps très court, sans devoir interrompre le trafic de manière importante.When it is necessary to have access to the fastening device, for example for the replacement of a rail section, it suffices to drill in the mortar at the location of the rail fastening bolts to release the rail section, remove it with its coating and set up and fix a new section of rail in a very short time, without having to interrupt the traffic significantly.

Des essais effectués sur un tronçon de rail de 6 m de long avec fixation tous les 0,9 m ont montré que la flexion statique d'un système de rail suivant l'invention est de 1 mm environ sous une charge à l'essieu de 11 tonnes. La première fréquence propre du système roue/rail est de 40 Hz environ pour un système de support classique et de 30 Hz environ pour un système antivibratoire performant. Le réglage de la fréquence propre se fait par un choix adéquat des semelles élastiques placées sous le rail. Ce résultat se compare avantageusement à la fréquence propre du système roue/rail d'une voie sur ballast, qui est d'environ 60 Hz.Tests carried out on a 6 m long section of rail with fixation every 0.9 m showed that the static bending of a rail system according to the invention is approximately 1 mm under an axle load of 11 tons. The first natural frequency of the wheel / rail system is about 40 Hz for a conventional support system and about 30 Hz for a high performance antivibration system. The adjustment of the natural frequency is done by a suitable choice of elastic soles placed under the rail. This result compares favorably with the natural frequency of the wheel / rail system of a track on ballast, which is about 60 Hz.

Les raideurs statiques et dynamiques des semelles antivibratoires sous le rail peuvent avantageusement être choisies de manière que les appuis successifs le long des rails constituent alternativement un appui relativement rigide et un appui relativement souple.The static and dynamic stiffness of the antivibration pads under the rail can advantageously be chosen so that the successive supports along the rails alternately constitute a relatively rigid support and a relatively flexible support.

Dans un mode de réalisation avantageux, l'ensemble d'un tronçon de rail 11 et des selles 12 qui le supportent est lui-même enrobé dans un caisson 20 en béton coulé en_usine. Les Fig. 8 et 9 représentent, respectivement en coupe transversale et vu en plan, un caisson 20 dans lequel sont enrobés deux ensembles 10 comprenant chacun un tronçon de rail 11 fixé sur selles 12 et enrobé dans son enrobage 21 comme décrit plus haut. Un tel caisson, qui a par exemple des dimensions de 3 x 9 m, constitue ainsi un module de voie ferrée préfabriqué qui facilite l'installation d'une voie ferrée sur un site. La mise en place peut alors être faite en un temps très court par simple alignement des tronçons de rails de caissons contigus et jointure de ces caissons entre eux, et la mise en circulation du trafic sur les rails peut se faire sans avoir à attendre le durcissement du béton de voirie.In an advantageous embodiment, the assembly of a section of rail 11 and saddles 12 which support it is itself embedded in a box 20 of cast concrete in_factory. Figs. 8 and 9 show, respectively in cross section and in plan view, a box 20 in which are coated two sets 10 each comprising a rail section 11 fixed on the saddle 12 and embedded in its coating 21 as described above. Such a box, which for example has dimensions of 3 x 9 m, thus constitutes a prefabricated railroad module that facilitates the installation of a railway on a site. The installation can then be done in a very short time simply by aligning the sections of rails of contiguous caissons and joining these boxes together, and the circulation of traffic on the rails can be done without having to wait for hardening. concrete road.
