Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Rillenschiene zur Befahrung durch mit Spurkranzrädern versehene Schienenfahrzeuge gemäß gattungsbildendem Teil des ersten Patentanspruchs.The invention relates to a grooved rail for driving through provided with flange wheels rail vehicles according to the generic part of the first claim.

Rillenschienen sind bereits seit einer Vielzahl von Jahrzehnten bekannt, wobei sich deren konstruktiver Aufbau, über die Zeit gesehen, kaum verändert hat.Grooved rails have been known for a variety of decades, with their structural design, seen over time, has barely changed.

Verwiesen wird hier beispielsweise auf die DE 70438 sowie die DE 195 39 590 .Reference is made here, for example, to the DE 70438 as well as the DE 195 39 590 ,

Rillenschienen gemäß Stand der Technik als Trägheitsschienen, d. h. mit Stegdicken < 50% der Schienenkopfbreite, weisen im Querschnitt vielfach eine schlanke Bauform auf.Grooved rails according to the prior art as inertial rails, d. H. with web thicknesses <50% of the rail head width, have in many cases a slim design in cross-section.

Im Hinblick auf Modifizierungen der die Rillenschienen befahrenen Schienenfahrzeuge, insbesondere deren Spurkranzräder, sind derartige Profile heute nicht mehr sinnvoll einsetzbar, da sich erhöhter Verschleiß bedingt durch höhere Querkräfte , insbesondere im Spurrillenbereich, respektive der dort gegebenen Flanken, einstellt.With regard to modifications of the rail vehicles used in the grooved rails, in particular their wheel flanges, such profiles are no longer useful today, as increased wear due to higher lateral forces, especially in the ruts area, respectively given there flanks adjusts.

Der FR-A 2816967 ist eine Rillenschiene zur Befahrung durch mit Spurkranzrädern versehenen Schienenfahrzeugen zu entnehmen, beinhaltend einen mit einer Fahrschiene, einer Spurrille sowie einer Leitschiene versehenen Schienenkopf, einen Schienensteg, einen Schienenfuß sowie zwischen dem Schienenkopf und dem Schienenfuß sich erstreckende seitliche Schienenkammern, wobei die Fahrschiene zur Spurrille hin eine der Fahrzeug führende Flanke aufweist. Die Schiene soll hierbei eine Gesamthöhe von etwa 85 mm aufweisen, während für den Schienenfuß eine Breite von etwa 130 mm angegeben wird.Of the FR-A 2816967 is a grooved rail for driving through provided with flange wheels rail vehicles include, including a provided with a running rail, a track groove and a guide rail rail head, a rail bridge, a rail and between the rail head and the rail foot extending side rail chambers, the rail to track groove out having a vehicle leading edge. The rail should in this case have an overall height of about 85 mm, while the rail foot is given a width of about 130 mm.

In der WO 01/83889 wird unter anderem auch eine Rillenschiene behandelt, die nach Art eines Schuhs in wesentlichen Bereichen ihres Gesamtquerschnittes eingefasst ist.In the WO 01/83889 Among other things, a grooved rail is treated, which is bordered in the manner of a shoe in essential areas of their total cross-section.

Ziel des Erfindungsgegenstandes ist es, ein Rillenschienenprofil bereit zu stellen, das den heutigen Anforderungen im Hinblick auf wesentlich geringere Fahrbahndicken, z. B. feste Fahrbahnen, insbesondere von Straßenkonstruktionen, genüge tut, einfach herstellbar ist und auch im wesentlichen horizontal auftretende Querkräfte bei sicherer, insbesondere elastischer, Abstützung auf dem Boden oder damit zusammenwirkenden Bauteilen aufnehmen kann.The aim of the subject invention is to provide a grooved rail profile that meets today's requirements in terms of significantly lower roadway thicknesses, eg. B. solid lanes, in particular of road structures, is sufficient, easy to produce and can absorb substantially horizontally occurring lateral forces at safer, in particular elastic, support on the ground or cooperating components.

Dieses Ziel wird durch eine Rillenschiene mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 erreicht.This object is achieved by a grooved rail with the features of claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des Erfindungsgegenstandes sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Advantageous developments of the subject invention can be found in the dependent claims.

Gegenüber dem Stand der Technik kann somit ein Profil bereitgestellt werden, dass eine relativ geringe Bauhöhe (≤ 100mm) aufweist. Infolge der in den Unteransprüchen definierten Verhältnissangaben wird ein Rillenschienenprofil definiert, das bei verbreiteter Fahrschiene in Kombination mit dem gegenüber dem Stand der Technik verringerten Neigungswinkel der Flanke sich einerseits ein geringerer Verschleiß einstellt und andererseits Querkräften problemlos dadurch begegnet werden kann, dass durch das Verhältnis der Breitenanteile des Schienenfußes in Verbindung mit der vergrößerten Stegdicke und dem verringerten Hebelarm des Kraftangriffes zum Fußpunkt die horizontale Auslenkung des Schienenkopfes verringert wird.Compared to the prior art, a profile can thus be provided which has a relatively low structural height (≦ 100 mm). As a result of the ratios defined in the subclaims a grooved rail profile is defined, which sets in common rail in combination with the reduced relative to the prior art inclination angle of the flank on the one hand less wear and on the other hand can be easily countered by transverse forces, that by the ratio of the width proportions the rail foot in conjunction with the increased web thickness and the reduced lever arm of the force application to the foot point, the horizontal deflection of the rail head is reduced.

Der geänderte Flankenneigungswinkel hat gegenüber dem Stand der Technik darüber hinaus noch spurführungstechnische Vorteile insbesondere bei Bogenfahrt, wodurch letztendlich der Fahrkomfort erhöht wird.The changed edge inclination angle has over the prior art also still track guidance technical advantages, especially at Bogenfahrt, which ultimately the ride comfort is increased.

Der Erfindungsgegenstand ist anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird wie folgt beschrieben.The subject invention is illustrated by means of an embodiment in the drawing and will be described as follows.

Das einzige Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt als nicht zwangsläufig maßstabgerechte Prinzipsskizze das Profil einer Rillenschiene 1 die in diesem Beispiel auf einer aus Beton bestehenden festen Fahrbahn eingebaut werden soll. Die Rillenschiene 1 beinhaltet einen mit einer Fahrschiene 2, einer Spurrille 3 sowie einer Leitschiene 4 versehenen Schienenkopf 5, einen Schienensteg 6 und einen Schienenfuß 7.The single embodiment shows as not necessarily to scale schematic diagram of the profile of a grooved rail 1 which is to be installed in this example on a solid concrete roadway existing. The grooved rail 1 includes a rail head 5 provided with a running rail 2, a track groove 3 and a guide rail 4, a rail web 6 and a rail foot 7.

Zwischen dem Schienenkopf 5 und dem Schienenfuß 7 erstrecken sich unterschiedlich hoch ausgebildete seitliche Schienenkammern 8,9. Die Fahrschiene 2 weist eine zur Spurrille 3 hin sich erstreckende fahrzeugführende Flanke 10 auf. Relativ zu einer gedachten Horizontalachse 11 verläuft die Flanke 10 in Richtung des Rillenbodens 12 der Spurrille 3 unter einem Neigungswinkel α, der in diesem Beispiel 76° betragen soll. Die Steigung der Flanke 10 beträgt somit in etwa 1:4,0. Der Schienenkopf 5 hat eine Gesamtbreite b, wobei der Anteil der Fahrschiene b1 zum verbleibenden Anteil b2 so ausgebildet ist, dass die Breite b1 der Fahrschiene 2 der Rollbreite einer üblichen Bandage von 95 mm Breite entspricht und in diesem Beispiel 57 % der Gesamtbreite b des Schienenkopfes 5 beträgt.Between the rail head 5 and the rail foot 7 extend differently high trained lateral rail chambers 8.9. The running rail 2 has a groove 3 extending towards the vehicle-leading edge 10. Relative to an imaginary horizontal axis 11, the flank 10 extends in the direction of the groove bottom 12 of the track groove 3 at an inclination angle α, which should be 76 ° in this example. The slope of the flank 10 is thus approximately 1: 4.0. The rail head 5 has a total width b, wherein the proportion of the running rail b1 to the remaining portion b2 is formed so that the width b1 of the running rail 2 of the rolling width of a conventional bandage of 95 mm width corresponds and in this example 57% of the total width b of the rail head 5 is.

Der eine vorgebbare Gesamtbreite B aufweisende Schienenfuß 7 ist dergestalt asymmetrisch zum Schienenkopf 5 angeordnet, dass der fahrschienenseitige Breitenanteil B1 in diesem Beispiel um den Faktor 1,4 größer ist als der leitschienenseitige Breitenanteil B2. Bezug wird hierbei genommen auf die vertikale Mittelachse 13 des eine vorgebbare Dicke D aufweisenden Schienensteges 6. Die Fahrfläche 14 der Fahrschiene 2 verläuft über mehrere Radien R1, R2, R3 in die fahrzeugführende Flanke 10 ein, wobei der Radius R1 in Richtung R3 über R2, ineinander übergehend, ständig kleiner wird. Die Gesamthöhe der Rillenschiene 1 ist mit h angegeben. Basis ist hierbei die Grundfläche G des Schienenfußes. Die Spurrille 3, ausgeführt als Tiefrille, weist eine Gesamttiefe T auf. In diesem Beispiel soll das Verhältnis der Gesamthöhe h der Rillenschiene 1 zur Gesamtbreite b des Schienenkopfes 1:1,25 betragen. Das Verhältnis der Gesamthöhe h der Rillenschiene 1 zur Gesamtbreite B des Schienenfußes 7 soll in diesem Beispiel 1:1,65 betragen. Das Verhältnis der Gesamtbreite b des Schienenkopfes 5 zur Gesamtbreite B des Schienenfußes 7 soll in diesem Beispiel etwa bei 1:1,3 liegen.The rail foot 7 having a predeterminable total width B is arranged asymmetrically with respect to the rail head 5 in such a way that the rail-side width component B1 in this example is 1.4 times greater than the rail-side width component B2. Reference is here made to the vertical central axis 13 of a predefinable thickness D having rail web 6. The running surface 14 of the running rail 2 extends over a plurality of radii R1, R2, R3 in the vehicle-leading edge 10, wherein the radius R1 in the direction R3 via R2, merging with each other, getting smaller and smaller. The total height of the grooved rail 1 is indicated by h. Base here is the base G of the rail foot. The track groove 3, executed as deep groove, has a total depth T on. In this example, the ratio of the total height h of the grooved rail 1 to the total width b of the rail head should be 1: 1.25. The ratio of the total height h of the grooved rail 1 to the total width B of the rail foot 7 should be 1: 1.65 in this example. The ratio of the total width b of the rail head 5 to the total width B of the rail foot 7 should be approximately 1: 1.3 in this example.

Das Verhältnis der Rillentiefe T zur Gesamthöhe h der Rillenschiene 1 beträgt im Minimum 1:2. Das Verhältnis der Dicke D des Schienensteges 6 zur Gesamtbreite B des Schienenfußes 7 soll in diesem Beispiel etwa bei 1:7 liegen.The ratio of the groove depth T to the total height h of the grooved rail 1 is at least 1: 2. The ratio of the thickness D of the rail web 6 to the total width B of the rail foot 7 in this example should be approximately 1: 7.

Die fahrschienenseitige Schienenkammer 8 wird definiert durch eine schienenfußseitige Flanke 15 und eine fahrschienenseitige Flanke 16, die geeignet aufeinander zulaufen.The track-side rail chamber 8 is defined by a rail side flank 15 and a side rail 16 side, which run towards each other.

Die gedachte Verlängerung 17 der fahrschienenseitigen Flanke 16 schneidet in diesem Beispiel den Rillenboden der Spurrille 3.The imaginary extension 17 of the track side edge 16 cuts in this example, the groove bottom of the track groove. 3

Durch das in den Patentansprüchen definierte Profil der Rillenschiene 1 kann bei kleiner Bauhöhe h und optimierter Breite B des Schienenfußes 7 in Verbindung mit dem angegebenen Flankenwinkel α bei etwa horizontalem Kraftangriff F durch das Spurkranzrad eines nicht weiter dargestellten Schienenfahrzeuges eine gute Abstützung der Rillenschiene 1 auf hartem oder elastischem Boden einer festen Fahrbahn herbeigeführt werden, ohne dass Kippmomente wirksam werden. Die Höhe h1 des horizontalen Kraftangriffes F an der Flanke 10 der Fahrschiene 2 liegt - bezogen auf die Grundfläche G des Schienenfußes - zwischen 0,8 und 0,9 h der Rillenschiene 1. Der fahrschienenseitige Breitenanteil B1 soll in diesem Beispiel folgender Gleichung genügen B ⁢ 1 = B ⁢ 2 + D .

By defined in the claims profile of the grooved rail 1 can at a small height h and optimized width B of the rail foot 7 in conjunction with the specified flank angle α at about horizontal force application F by the flange of a rail vehicle not shown a good support of the grooved rail 1 on hartem or elastic floor of a solid roadway without tipping moments are effective. The height h1 of the horizontal force attack F on the flank 10 of the running rail 2 is - based on the base G of the rail foot - between 0.8 and 0.9 h of the grooved rail 1. The track side width portion B1 should satisfy the following equation in this example B ⁢ 1 = B ⁢ 2 + D ,

Die Breite b1 der Fahrschiene 2 soll etwa dem leitschienenseitigen Breitenanteil B2 des Schienenfußes 7 entsprechen, wobei der leitschienenseitige Breitenanteil B2 < der Gesamthöhe h der Rillenschiene 1 sein soll. Schließlich soll in diesem Beispiel der fahrschienenseitige Breitenanteil B1 > als die Höhe h1 sein.The width b1 of the running rail 2 should correspond approximately to the guide rail side width portion B2 of the rail foot 7, wherein the guide rail side width portion B2 <the total height h of the grooved rail 1 should be. Finally, in this example, the trackside width portion B1> is to be the height h1.
