Description

Umstellvorrichtung in Eisenbahnweichen Changeover device in railway turnouts
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Umstellen von Backenschienen anstellbar zugeordneten Zungenschienen oder beweglichen Herzstückzungen in Eisenbahnweichen, ausgebildet als Klinken- oder vertikaler Klammerverschluss, umfassend Verschlussklinken, die mittels einer Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange betätigt werden, sowie Verschlussstücke und Zungenkloben, wobei jede Verschlußklinke in einem Zungenkloben schwenkbar gelagert und die Zungenschiene mit dem Zungenkloben lösbar verbunden ist.The invention relates to a device for switching of cheek rails on adjustable associated tongue rails or movable Herzstückzungen in railway turnouts, designed as a pawl or vertical clamp closure, comprising latches, which are actuated by a cam or slide rod, and plugs and Tongue, each locking pawl in a Tongue pivots pivotally mounted and the tongue rail with the tongue clamp is releasably connected.
Als Verschlußvorrichtung für Weichenzungen sind beispielsweise Klinkenverschlüsse, bestehend aus einem Zungenkloben, einem Verschlussstück, einer Verschlussklinke und Nockenstangen, hinlänglich bekannt und beschrieben (vgl. DE195 02 105, EP 1 488 979).As a closure device for switch tongues, for example, latch locks, consisting of a tongue block, a closure piece, a closure pawl and cam rods, are well known and described (cf .. DE195 02 105, EP 1 488 979).
Der Einbau und die Einstellung der Verschlüsse in der Weiche muss einfach und schnell möglich sein. Dies bedingt einen Verschluss, dessen Komponenten schon vor dem Einbau so voreingestellt werden, dass eine aufwendige Justage des Verschlusses während des Einbaues entfällt.The installation and adjustment of the closures in the switch must be quick and easy. This requires a closure whose components are pre-set before installation so that a complex adjustment of the closure during installation is eliminated.
Bei einer aus der EP-A1-0 624 508 bekannten Lösung wird das Verschlussstück an den Fuß der Backenschiene geklemmt. Das Verschlussstück muss aber zusätzlich, während der Montage des Klinkenverschlusses, zu seiner genauen Lagepositionierung und zum Ausgleich der Dickentoleranzen des Backenschienenfußes mit einer Profilausgleichstange aufwendig nachjustiert werden. Eine zusätzliche Einstellung des Abstandes der Zunge zur Backenschiene erfolgt mit einem in der Klinke befindlichen Exzenterbolzen. Durch die EP-B1-0 723 901 bzw. DE-C5-195 02 105 ist es bekannt geworden, daß das Verschlussstück an den Steg der Backenschiene geschraubt und nicht geklemmt wird. Eine zusätzliche Einstellung des Verschlussstückes erfolgt über einen Exzenter mit Rolle. Durch den Exzenter kann der Abstand der Nockenstange zur Backenschienenfußunterseite eingestellt werden. Eine zusätzliche Einstellung des Abstandes der Zunge zur Backenschiene erfolgt anlog mit einem in der Klinke befindlichen Exzenterbolzen, wie oben schon beschrieben. Der Hauptnachteil dieser Lösung sind die Bohrungen in der Backenschiene. Denn die Bohrungen in der Backenschiene müssen zur Bohrung im Zungenfuß oder -Steg fluchten (zur Befestigung des Zungenklobens). Ansonsten kann es zu Funktionsstörungen kommen. Besonders nach einem Zungentausch ist das Fluchten der Bohrungen nur mit einem größeren Aufwand erreichbar. Die Rolle hat den Nachteil, dass diese umlaufend verschleißen kann und dadurch nach einer gewissen Betriebszeit ausgetauscht werden muss.In one known from EP-A1-0 624 508 solution, the closure piece is clamped to the foot of the stock rail. In addition, during the installation of the latch closure, the closure piece must be readjusted to its exact position positioning and to compensate for the thickness tolerances of the jaw foot with a profile compensation rod consuming. An additional adjustment of the distance of the tongue to the stock rail takes place with an eccentric pin located in the pawl. By EP-B1-0 723 901 or DE-C5-195 02 105 it has become known that the closure piece is screwed to the web of the stock rail and not clamped. An additional adjustment of the closure piece via an eccentric with roller. Through the eccentric the distance of the cam bar can be adjusted to the lower jaw foot. An additional adjustment of the distance of the tongue to the stock rail is analogous with an eccentric located in the pawl, as already described above. The main disadvantage of this solution is the holes in the stock rail. Because the holes in the stock rail must be aligned with the hole in the tongue base or -Steg (for attachment of the tongue block). Otherwise it can lead to malfunctions. Especially after a change of tongues, the alignment of the holes can only be achieved with greater effort. The role has the disadvantage that it can wear out all around and must therefore be replaced after a certain period of operation.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einer Verschlussvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art die beschriebenen Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine verbesserte, einfachere Einstellbarkeit zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to avoid the disadvantages described in a closure device of the type mentioned and to provide an improved, easier adjustability.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange vertikal über einen in den beiden Verschlussstücken lösbar gelagerten Mehrkantkörper höheneinstellbar ist. Durch die Integration des um seine axiale Längsachse dreh- bzw. wendbaren Mehrkantkörpers in die Verschlussstücke ist es möglich, die Verschlussstücke direkt und ohne zusätzliche Ausgleichselemente, wie z.B. eine Profilausgleichsstange, an den Backenschienenfuß anzuklemmen. Die Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange liegt bei der Höhenjustange auf einer flächigen Oberseite des vorzugsweise als Vierkant ausgebildeten Mehrkantkörpers auf. Sollte aufgrund von häufigen Höhenjustierungen die tragende, flächige Oberseite des Vierkant-Körpers verschleißen, kann der Vierkant einfach axial um seine Längsachse gedreht werden, so dass eine der drei unverbrauchten, flächigen Oberseiten zur Anlage kommt. Gegenüber einem im Stand der Technik verwendeten Rollkörper zur Höhenverstellung, der bei starkem Verschleiß der Oberfläche direkt gewechselt werden muss, kann der Mehrkantkörper um ein Vielfaches länger in Gebrauch bleiben, wodurch sich Wartungs- bzw. Instandsetzungsintervalle an den Weichen erheblich verlängern lassen.This object is achieved in that the cam or slide rod is vertically adjustable via a releasably mounted in the two closure pieces polygonal body. By integrating the pivotable about its axial longitudinal axis or reversible polygonal body in the plugs, it is possible to clamp the plugs directly and without additional compensation elements, such as a profile balancing rod to the jaw rail. The cam or slide rod is in the Höhenjustange on a flat top of preferably formed as a square polygonal body. If due to frequent height adjustments wear the bearing, flat top of the square body, the square can simply axial be rotated about its longitudinal axis, so that one of the three unused, flat tops comes to rest. Compared with a rolling body used for height adjustment in the prior art, which must be changed directly in case of heavy wear of the surface, the polygonal body can remain in use many times longer, which can extend maintenance and repair intervals at the points significantly.
Weiterhin wird durch die flächige Auflage zwischen der Nockenstange und dem Würfel bzw. Vierkant die Flächenpressung, insbesondere gegenüber einem Rollkörper, stark vermindert.Furthermore, the surface pressure, in particular with respect to a rolling body, is greatly reduced by the areal contact between the cam rod and the cube or square.
Eine Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass sich die vertikale Höhenverstellung der Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange durch die Drehung des Mehrkant- bzw. Vierkantkörpers erzeugen läßt, der dazu auf einem Exzenter oder einer exzentrisch gelagerten Achse angeordnet sein könnte. Hierbei empfiehlt es sich, dass nach einem Vorschlag der Erfindung der Mehrkantkörper mit einer zentrischen oder exzentrischen, axialen Durchgangsbohrung versehen ist. Es lässt sich damit erreichen, daß innerhalb eines Verschlussstückes bzw. mit demselben Verschlussstück unterschiedliche Backenschienenprofil- und Zungenprofilkombinatio- nen ausgeglichen respektive aneinander angepasst werden können. Die Exzenterachse oder exzentrisch gelagerte Achse dient dann nur noch zur Feinjustage der Höhe des Abstandes der Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange in Bezug auf den Backenschienenfuß. Außerdem können die Auflageflächen des Vierkant- bzw. Mehrkantkörpers unterschiedlich beschichtet werden, um den unterschiedlichen Einsatzbedingungen gerecht zu werden.An embodiment of the invention provides that the vertical height adjustment of the cam or slide rod can be generated by the rotation of the polygonal or square body, which could be arranged on an eccentric or an eccentrically mounted shaft. It is recommended that, according to a proposal of the invention, the polygonal body is provided with a central or eccentric, axial through-bore. It can thus be achieved that different jaw rail profile and tongue profile combinations can be compensated or adjusted to one another within a closure piece or with the same closure piece. The eccentric axis or eccentrically mounted axle then serves only for fine adjustment of the height of the distance of the cam or slide rod with respect to the jaw rail foot. In addition, the bearing surfaces of the square or polygonal body can be coated differently in order to meet the different conditions of use.

In Fig. 1 ist eine Umstellvorrichtung 1 einer Eisenbahnweiche zum Umstellen von Weichenverschlüssen 1a, 1b dargestellt. Jeder Weichenverschluss 1a, 1b weist einen Zungenkloben 2, ein Verschlussstück 3 und eine Verschlussklinke 4 (vgl. hierzu Fig. 2 und 3) auf.In Fig. 1, a changeover device 1 of a railway switch for changing switch switches 1a, 1b is shown. Each switch closure 1a, 1b has a tongue block 2, a closure piece 3 and a closure pawl 4 (see FIGS. 2 and 3 for this).
Die gleichzeitige, gegensinnige Verstellung der beiden Weichenverschlüsse 1 a, 1b erfolgt durch zwei gleiche Nocken- bzw. Schieberstangenhälften 5a, 5b, die über eine Verbindungslasche 5c einstückig miteinander verbunden sind. An der Verbindungslasche 5c greift ein Antriebsgestänge an, welches von einem hier nicht dargestellten Stellmotor bewegt wird. Durch die Bewegung der in den Verschlussstücken 3 geführten bzw. auf diesen laufenden Nocken- bzw. Schieberstangen 5a, 5b und deren Zusammenwirken mit den Verschlussklinken 4 werden die Weichenverschlüsse 1a, 1b geöffnet (1a) oder geschlossen (1b). In der Fig. 2 ist als Einzelheit der geschlossene Weichenverschluss 1b dargestellt. Die aus einem Zungenfuß 6a, einem Zungensteg 6b und einem Zungenkopf 6c bestehende Zungenschiene 6 ist ortsfest und liegt an einer Backenschiene 7 an.The simultaneous, opposite adjustment of the two switch locks 1 a, 1 b is effected by two identical cam or slide rod halves 5 a, 5 b, which are integrally connected to each other via a connecting plate 5 c. At the connecting plate 5c engages a drive linkage, which is moved by a servomotor, not shown here. The switch closures 1a, 1b are opened (1a) or closed (1b) by the movement of the cam or slide rods 5a, 5b guided in or on the closure pieces 3 and their interaction with the locking pawls 4. In Fig. 2 is shown as a detail of the closed switch closure 1b. The tongue rail 6a, a tongue web 6b and a tongue head 6c existing tongue rail 6 is stationary and is located on a stock rail 7 at.
Die Fig. 3 zeigt als Einzelheit den geöffneten Weichenverschluss 1a, bei dem die Zungenschiene 6 in einem geeigneten Abstand, dem sogenannten Zungenaufschlag, von der Backenschiene 7 entfernt ist.FIG. 3 shows in detail the opened switch closure 1a, in which the tongue rail 6 is removed from the stock rail 7 at a suitable distance, the so-called tongue surcharge.
In Fig. 4 ist als Einzelheit das Verschlussstück 3 der Weichenverschlüsse 1a, 1b dargestellt. Am unteren, dem Gleisbett zugewandten Ende ist mittels einer Achse 8 ggf. ausgebildet als Exzenterachse, ein Vierkantkörper 9 gelagert. Die zur Steuerung bzw. Beaufschlagung der Umstellvorrichtung 1 eingesetzte Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange 5a, 5b liegt sowohl in der Ruhestellung als auch bei der Bewegung während des Stellvorgangs auf der flächigen Oberseite a des Vierkantkörpers 9 auf. Bei der Verwendung einer Exzenterachse 8 geht durch Drehung dieser eine zunehmende oder abnehmende vertikale Verstellung des Vierkantkörpers 9 einher, was eine einfache Höhenjustage der Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange 5a, 5b ermöglicht.In Fig. 4, the closure piece 3 of the switch locks 1a, 1b is shown as a detail. At the bottom, the track bed facing end is optionally formed by means of an axis 8 as the eccentric axis, a square body 9 is mounted. The cam or slide rod 5a, 5b used to control or act on the changeover device 1 rests on the flat upper side a of the square body 9 both in the rest position and during the movement during the setting process. When using an eccentric axis 8 is accompanied by rotation of this increasing or decreasing vertical adjustment of the square body 9, which allows a simple height adjustment of the cam or slide rod 5a, 5b.
Diese Höhenverstellung erlaubt es, dass das Verschlussstück 3 einfach an die Backenschiene 7 mittels zweier Klammern 10, ohne weitere Justierarbeiten, angeklemmt werden kann. Die durch eventuelle Dickentoleranzen des Backenschienenfußes 12 erforderliche Horizontalverschiebung des Verschlussstückes 3 wird durch einen ausreichend großen Exzenter 11 im Lager das Zungenklobens 2 für die Verschlussklinke 4 ausgeglichen.This height adjustment allows the closure piece 3 can be easily clamped to the stock rail 7 by means of two brackets 10, without further adjustment. The required by any thickness tolerances of the cheek rail foot 12 horizontal displacement of the closure piece 3 is compensated by a sufficiently large eccentric 11 in the camp, the Tungenklobens 2 for the closure pawl 4.
Der Vierkantkörper 9 im Ausführungsbeispiel mit einer exzentrischen Bohrung b versehen, wodurch sich innerhalb des Verschlussstückes 3 bzw. mit demselben Verschlussstück 3 unterschiedliche Backenschienenprofil- und Zungenprofilkom- binationen ausgleichen lassen. Die Exzenterachse 8 wird in diesem Fall lediglich noch zur Feinjustage des Abstandes zwischen der Nocken- bzw. Schieberstange 5a, 5b und dem Backenschienenfuß 12 benötigt.The square body 9 is provided in the exemplary embodiment with an eccentric bore b, whereby within the closure piece 3 or with the same closure piece 3 different jaw rail profiles and tongue profile components are provided. balance out. The eccentric axis 8 is only needed in this case for fine adjustment of the distance between the cam or slide rod 5a, 5b and the jaw rail foot 12.
Die Fig. 5 zeigt als Beispiel die Verwendung solcher Verschlussstücke 3 zum Umstellen einer beweglichen Herzstückzunge 13. Die Verschlussstücke 3 sind hier an Hilfsschienen 14 a bzw. 14 b befestigt bzw. diesen zugeordnet. Die Zungenkloben 2 sind gleichzeitig an einer die Herzstückspitze bzw. -zunge 13 aufweisenden Verbindungs- bzw. Trägerplatte 15 befestigt, die sich bei Beaufschlagung der Nockenstange 5 a, 5 b unter den zu den Hilfsschienen 14 a, 14 b komplementären Flügelschienen 16 a, 16 b in die jeweilige Endlage verschiebt, in der sich dann die Herzstückzunge 13 entweder an die Flügelschiene 16 a oder 16 b anlegt, wie in Fig. 5 für die rechte Flügelschiene 16 a dargestellt.5 shows an example of the use of such closure pieces 3 for switching a movable Herzstückzunge 13. The closure pieces 3 are here attached to auxiliary rails 14 a and 14 b or associated with these. The tongue block 2 are at the same time attached to a the frog point or tongue 13 having connection or support plate 15, which upon application of the cam bar 5 a, 5 b under the auxiliary rails 14 a, 14 b complementary wing rails 16 a, 16 B shifts to the respective end position in which then the frog piece 13 either the wing rail 16 a or 16 b applies, as shown in Fig. 5 for the right wing rail 16 a.
Die Verschlussklinke 4 verriegelt entsprechend die rechte Hilfsschiene 14 a, während die linke Hilfsschiene 14 b in dieser Stellposition von dem ihr zugeordneten Klinkenverschluss 4 unbeeinflusst ist. Der Aufbau und die Funktion der die auf den Achsen 8 gelagerten Mehrkantkörper 9 aufweisenden Verschlussstücke 3 unterschiedet sich nicht von der im Zusammenhang mit den Fig. 1 bis 4 beschriebenen Wirkungsweise. The closure pawl 4 locks according to the right auxiliary rail 14 a, while the left auxiliary rail 14 b is unaffected in this setting position of its associated latch closure 4. The construction and the function of the mounted on the axes 8 polygonal body 9 having closure pieces 3 is not different from that described in connection with FIGS. 1 to 4 mode of action.
