Le chariot 2 comprend également un ressort de rappel 24 dont l'une des extrémités est fixée sur la première plaque 14 fixée sur l'organe latéral 4 et dont l'autre extrémité est fixée sur l'organe de blocage 17. Le ressort de rappel 24 est agencé pour rappeler le doigt de blocage 21 dans la position de blocage du galet de roulement comportant l'encoche 22.The carriage 2 also comprises a return spring 24 whose one end is fixed on the first plate 14 fixed on the lateral member 4 and whose other end is fixed on the locking member 17. The return spring 24 is arranged to return the locking finger 21 to the locking position of the roller including the notch 22.

Il doit être noté que la première plaque 14 de chaque charnière 13 comprend une tige de retenue 25 comportant une tête 26 agencée pour coopérer avec une lumière 27 ménagée sur la seconde plaque correspondante 15 de manière à limiter l'écartement relatif des deux plaques 14, 15. La présence de ces deux tiges de retenue 25 permet de soulever le chariot 2 par le châssis de support 3 sans entraîner un pivotement relatif important entre les organes latéraux 4, 4' et le châssis de support 3.It should be noted that the first plate 14 of each hinge 13 comprises a retaining rod 25 having a head 26 arranged to cooperate with a slot 27 formed on the second corresponding plate 15 so as to limit the relative spacing of the two plates 14, 15. The presence of these two retaining rods 25 makes it possible to lift the carriage 2 by the support frame 3 without causing a significant relative pivoting between the lateral members 4, 4 'and the support frame 3.

Le fonctionnement du chariot 2 va maintenant être décrit.The operation of the carriage 2 will now be described.

Comme montré sur la figure 1, lorsqu'aucune machine de pose et d'entretien n'est positionnée sur le second axe 12 du dispositif d'articulation 10, les plaques 14, 15 de chaque charnière 13 sont maintenues dans leur première position par l'intermédiaire du ressort de rappel 23 qui exerce sur la deuxième plaque 15 de la charnière correspondante 13 une force supérieure à celle exercée par le châssis de support 3 sur cette dernière.As shown on the figure 1 when no laying and maintenance machine is positioned on the second axis 12 of the hinge device 10, the plates 14, 15 of each hinge 13 are held in their first position by means of the return spring. 23 which exerts on the second plate 15 of the corresponding hinge 13 a force greater than that exerted by the support frame 3 on the latter.

Comme montré sur la figure 3, lorsque les plaques 14, 15 de la charnière 13 située au niveau de l'organe latéral 4 sont dans leur première position, la seconde plaque 15 de cette charnière 13 ne coopère pas avec le levier 19 solidaire de l'organe de blocage 17. De ce fait, le doigt de blocage 21 est maintenu dans sa position de blocage par l'intermédiaire du ressort de rappel 24. Dans cette position, le doigt de blocage 21 coopère avec l'encoche 22 ménagée sur le galet de roulement correspondant de manière bloquer la rotation de ce dernier.As shown on the figure 3 when the plates 14, 15 of the hinge 13 located at the lateral member 4 are in their first position, the second plate 15 of this hinge 13 does not cooperate with the lever 19 integral with the locking member 17. As a result, the locking pin 21 is held in its blocking position by means of the return spring 24. In this position, the locking pin 21 cooperates with the locking member 21. notch 22 formed on the corresponding roller wheel so as to block the rotation of the latter.

En conséquence, lorsqu'aucune machine n'est positionnée sur le chariot 2, ce dernier n'est pas susceptible de se déplacer le long de la voie ferrée.Accordingly, when no machine is positioned on the carriage 2, the latter is not likely to move along the railway.

Lorsqu'une machine de pose et d'entretien est positionnée sur le second axe 13 du dispositif d'articulation 10, le poids de cette dernière provoque un déplacement des plaques 14, 15 de chaque charnière 13 dans leur seconde position représentée sur la figure 2.When a laying machine and maintenance is positioned on the second axis 13 of the hinge device 10, the weight of the latter causes a displacement of the plates 14, 15 of each hinge 13 in their second position shown on the figure 2 .

Ce déplacement des plaques 14, 15 de chaque charnière 13 entraîne une coopération entre le levier 19 et la seconde plaque 15 de la charnière correspondante 13, ce qui provoque un pivotement de l'organe de blocage 17 dans le sens antihoraire à l'encontre de la force exercé sur ce dernier par le ressort de rappel 24, comme cela est montré sur la figure 6.This displacement of the plates 14, 15 of each hinge 13 causes a cooperation between the lever 19 and the second plate 15 of the corresponding hinge 13, which causes a pivoting of the locking member 17 in the counterclockwise direction against the force exerted on the latter by the return spring 24, as shown in FIG. figure 6 .

Ce pivotement de l'organe de blocage 17 entraîne un déplacement du doigt de blocage 21 dans sa position de déblocage du galet de roulement 5 comportant l'encoche 22.This pivoting of the locking member 17 causes the locking pin 21 to move in its unlocking position of the roller 5 comprising the notch 22.

De ce fait, le chariot 2 est libéré et est donc susceptible de se déplacer le long de la voie ferrée.Therefore, the carriage 2 is released and is therefore likely to move along the railway.

Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce chariot, décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple, elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes de réalisation. C'est ainsi notamment que les galets de roulement 5 pourraient comprendre une troisième portion de guidage en forme de disque opposée à la seconde portion de guidage 5b.As goes without saying, the invention is not limited to the sole embodiment of this carriage, described above as an example, it encompasses all the variants. Thus, in particular, the rollers 5 could comprise a third disc-shaped guide portion opposite the second guide portion 5b.
