Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Montage von eine Schiene mit einer Schwelle eines Gleises verbindenden Schienenklemmen, bestehend aus zwei einander gegenüberliegenden und durch einen Beistellzylinder in Maschinen- bzw. Gleisquerrichtung jeweils auf einem Werkzeugrahmen gelagerten und um einen Schwenkbolzen eines Hebellagers bewegbaren Werkzeughebeln, an deren unterem Ende jeweils ein zur Anlage an eine Schienenklemme vorgesehenes Anpressorgan vorgesehen ist.The invention relates to a device for mounting a rail with a threshold of a track connecting rail clamps, consisting of two opposing and by a Beistellzylinder in machine or track transverse direction each mounted on a tool frame and movable about a pivot pin of a lever bearing tool levers on the lower End is provided in each case provided for abutment against a rail clamp pressing member.

Aus US 5,839,377 ist bereits eine derartige Vorrichtung bekannt, die höhenverstellbar auf einem gleisverfahrbaren Maschinenrahmen angeordnet ist und Werkzeughebel aufweist, die mit ihrem oberen Ende auf der Schwenkachse gelagert sind. Der Beistellzylinder ist etwa in Längsmitte der beiden Hebel an diesen angelenkt. Am unteren Ende der Werkzeughebel ist jeweils ein Anpreßorgan zum Einschieben einer Schienenklemme in Richtung zur Schiene vorgesehen. Zusätzlich dazu ist auf jedem Werkzeughebel ein weiteres Anpreßorgan angeordnet, das aus zwei - um eine normal zur Schienenlängsrichtung verlaufende Achse rotierbaren - Andrücknasen besteht.Out US 5,839,377 already such a device is known, which is arranged vertically adjustable on a track-movable machine frame and tool lever which are mounted with its upper end on the pivot axis. The auxiliary cylinder is articulated to this approximately in the longitudinal center of the two levers. At the lower end of the tool lever in each case a pressing member for inserting a rail clamp in the direction of the rail is provided. In addition, a further pressing member is arranged on each tool lever, which consists of two - to a normal to the longitudinal axis of the rail axis rotatable - Andrücknasen.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun in der Schaffung einer Vorrichtung der gattungsgemäßen Art, die wahlweise einen Ein- als auch Ausbau von Schienenklemmen bei jeweils kinematisch optimalen Bedingungen ermöglicht.The object of the present invention is now to provide a device of the generic type, which optionally a Ein- as well as expansion Rail clamps possible in each case kinematic optimal conditions.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe mit einer Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art durch die im Kennzeichen von Anspruch 1 angeführten Merkmale gelöst.According to the invention this object is achieved by a device of the type mentioned by the features cited in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Bei den bisher verwendeten Vorrichtungen bewegen sich die Anpreßorgane sowohl beim Ein- als auch beim Ausbau der Schienenklemmen auf einer gemeinsamen, durch die Schwenkachse des Werkzeughebels definierten Kreisbahn. Infolge der in Gleisquerrichtung voneinander distanzierten Angriffspunkte für die Bewegung der Schienenklemme sind die idealen Kreisbahnen für beide Einsatzarten jedoch nicht ident. Die bis jetzt bekannte gemeinsame Kreisbahn stellt gewissermaßen einen unbefriedigenden Kompromiss dar. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Vorrichtung ist es nun erstmals möglich, durch wahlweise Verwendung des einen oder anderen Hebellagers die jeweils optimale Kreisbahn zur Übertragung der großen Schubkräfte einzusetzen. Die dazu nötigen Umrüstarbeiten sind einfach und erfordern nur einen geringen Zeitaufwand, da lediglich der Schwenkbolzen umzustecken ist und die Vorrichtung nicht mehr neu zentriert werden muss.In the devices used hitherto, the pressing members move both during the installation and removal of the rail clamps on a common circular path defined by the pivot axis of the tool lever. As a result of spaced apart in the transverse direction of the track attack points for the movement of the rail clamp the ideal circular paths for both types of use are not identical. The hitherto known common circular path is effectively an unsatisfactory compromise. The inventive design of the device, it is now possible for the first time by optional Use of one or the other lever bearing the optimal circular path to use for the transmission of large shear forces. The necessary retooling work is simple and require only a small amount of time, since only the pivot pin is to be repositioned and the device does not need to be re-centered.

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

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand von in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher beschrieben.In the following the invention will be described in more detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawing.

Eine in Fig. 1 ersichtliche Vorrichtung 1 dient zur Montage von eine Schiene 2 mit einer Schwelle 3 eines Gleises verbindenden Schienenklemmen 4 und ist üblicherweise höhenverstellbar an einer nicht näher dargestellten Gleisbaumaschine angeordnet. Die Vorrichtung 1 besteht im wesentlichen aus zwei in Gleisquerrichtung gegenüberliegenden Werkzeughebeln 5, die an einem Werkzeugrahmen 6 gelagert und durch einen Beistellzylinder 7 miteinander verbunden sind. An einem unteren Ende 8 jedes Werkzeughebels 5 sind verstellbare Anpreßorgane 9, 10 zur Anlage an die Schienenklemme 4 angeordnet. Das Anpreßorgan 9 dient zum Einbau, das Anpreßorgan 10 zum Ausbau von Schienenklemmen 4. Jeder Werkzeug hebel 5 weist ein erstes und ein zweites, in einer normal zu Schwenkachsen 13, 14 verlaufenden Querrichtung 15 voneinander distanziertes Hebellager 11, 12 auf. Diese dienen zum wahlweisen Verschwenken des Werkzeughebels 5 um die Schwenkachsen 13, 14. Die beiden Anpreßorgane 9, 10 sind durch einen Antrieb um eine Achse 23 drehbar.An in Fig. 1 apparent device 1 is used for mounting a rail 2 with a threshold 3 of a track connecting rail terminals 4 and is usually arranged vertically adjustable on a track construction machine, not shown. The device 1 consists essentially of two opposite in track transverse direction tool levers 5, which are mounted on a tool frame 6 and connected by a Beistellzylinder 7. At a lower end 8 of each tool lever 5 adjustable pressing members 9, 10 are arranged to bear on the rail clamp 4. Each pressing lever 5 has a first and a second, in a normal to pivot axes 13, 14 extending transverse direction 15 spaced apart lever bearings 11, 12 on. These are used for selectively pivoting the tool lever 5 about the pivot axes 13, 14. The two pressure members 9, 10 are rotatable about a shaft 23 by a drive.

Wie auch in Fig. 2 zu sehen ist, bestehen die Hebellager 11, 12 aus Bohrungen 16 und einem Schwenkbolzen 17. Dabei weist jeder Werkzeug hebel 5 zwei und der Werkzeugrahmen 6 insgesamt vier Bohrungen 16 auf. Jeder der beiden Schwenkbolzen 17 ist mit einem Handgriff 18 und einer diesem gegenüberliegenden Arretiervorrichtung 19 ausgestattet.As well as in Fig. 2 can be seen, the lever bearings 11, 12 consist of holes 16 and a pivot pin 17. In this case, each tool lever 5 has two and the tool frame 6 a total of four holes 16. Each of the two pivot pins 17 is equipped with a handle 18 and a locking device 19 opposite thereto.

Im folgenden wird nun kurz die Wirkungsweise der Vorrichtung 1 beschrieben. Je nach Einsatzart werden durch manuelles Einstecken der Schwenkbolzen 17 die beiden Hebellager 11 zum Einbau bzw. die beiden Hebellager 12 zum Ausbau von Schienenklemmen 4 gebildet. Die Arretiervorrichtung 19 verhindert ein unbeabsichtigtes Herausgleiten der Schwenkbolzen 17. Die ebenfalls von der Einsatzart abhängig in Stellung gebrachten Anpreßorgane 9 (Einbau) oder 10 (Ausbau, strichpunktiert eingezeichnet) bewegen sich dabei jeweils auf einer kinematisch optimalen Kreisbahn 21 (Einbau) oder 20 (Ausbau), bei der jeweils eine optimale Anlage an die Schienen klemme 4 gesichert ist. Die Bewegung der Anpreßorgane 9, 10 entsteht durch Beaufschlagen des Beistellzylinders 7.The mode of operation of the device 1 will now be briefly described. Depending on the type of application, the two lever bearings 11 for installation or the two lever bearings 12 for the removal of rail clamps 4 are formed by manually inserting the pivot pin 17. The locking device 19 prevents inadvertent sliding out of the pivot pin 17. Die also by the type of application dependent placed in Anpreßorgane 9 (installation) or 10 (expansion, dash-dotted line) move each case on a kinematically optimal circular path 21 (installation) or 20 (expansion), in each case an optimal system clamped to the rails 4 is secured. The movement of the Anpreßorgane 9, 10 is formed by applying the Beistellzylinders. 7

Die in Fig. 3 ersichtliche Vorrichtung 1 weist insgesamt vier Schwenkbolzen 17 auf, von denen jeder mit einem Antrieb 22 verbunden ist. Diese werden über eine nicht näher dargestellte Steuereinrichtung für ein wahlweises Einschieben der Schwenkbolzen 17 in die Bohrungen 16 der Hebellager 11, 12 beaufschlagt.In the Fig. 3 apparent device 1 has a total of four pivot pins 17, each of which is connected to a drive 22. These are acted upon by a control device not shown in detail for an optional insertion of the pivot pin 17 into the bores 16 of the lever bearings 11, 12.
