Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cross-point with a moving point for railways of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the design of the known crossing centers does not allow disassembly and replacement in track (on site) of the moving tip, when the latter is worn or damaged.
  • the crossover hearts described in the patent FR 2 788 535 include spacers formed integrally with the heel elements.
  • the extraction of the movable tip of the bolting chamber can be performed for such crossing hearts only in the main direction of the path, that is to say axially.
  • This extraction requires prior dismantling of the embedding part, solidarily with the moving tip, the extraction of the moving tip being then carried out in the workshop, and not on site, which requires the removal of the worn or damaged core and its replacement by a spare part of the same type.
  • Such a maintenance operation represents not only a very high cost, but also a very long period of neutralization of the track.
  • EP 0 587 517 A1 discloses a crossover core comprising the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to solve this drawback, and to make possible such a maintenance operation on site, in order to very substantially reduce the duration and the cost of the maintenance operation.
  • the subject of the invention is a crossing core of the above type, characterized by the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the invention may include one or more of the additional features recited in claims 2 to 12.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows a crossing heart 1 according to the invention, placed on the track in use situation.
  • crossing heart will be assumed in its horizontal position of use, and all terms of direction and position will be understood in this orientation.
  • the terms “horizontal” and “vertical” may qualify certain parts of the crossing heart, will agree according to a position of horizontal use of the crossing heart.
  • the crossing heart 1 essentially comprises a set of cradle 3 fixed to the sleepers, and a movable tip 5 mounted in the cradle assembly 3.

  • the support plate 55 is extended laterally, externally relative to the elements of heel 35, 36, by external flanges 57 allowing the fixing on the crosspieces 50 of the cradle 12, by means of the fixing devices 51.
  • the two rails 43, 44 are wedged to each other by a spacer 60 which marries their internal parts in profile, building on them.
  • the crossover core 1 comprises removable fastening and locking means 61.
  • spacer pieces 63 These include spacer pieces 63, four in number in the example shown in FIG. Figure 2 , arranged in pairs facing each side of the movable tip.
  • Each spacer piece 63 has a generally parallelepipedal shape elongated axially.
  • the two spacer pieces 63 of the same pair are substantially symmetrical with respect to the vertical axial plane, and each ensure the wedging of one of the two rails 43, 44 on the corresponding heel element 35, 36.
  • Each spacer piece 63 is supported, by an external lateral face, on an internal face of the corresponding heel element 35, 36, and by an internal lateral face, on an outer side of the core 46 of the rail 43. , 44 corresponding.
  • the spacers 63 have a shape adapted to cooperate by shape complementarity, over the entire axial length of the spacer, with a portion of the outer profile of the respective rail 43, 44, this portion comprising the upper surface of the pad 48, the outer surface from the core 46 to the transition surface between the core 46 and the mushroom 47.
