Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Schienensystem mit zwei Schienen für ein Schienenfahrzeug, die jeweils eine Führungsrille mit einer Entwässerungsausnehmung aufweisen.The present invention relates to a rail system with two rails for a rail vehicle, each having a guide groove with a Entwässerungsausnehmung.

Derartige Schienensysteme sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Bei diesem Schienensystem muss die Führungsrille in regelmäßigen Abständen Entwässerungsausnehmungen aufweisen, um zu verhindern, dass sich Wasser in der Führungsrille ansammelt. Dieses Wasser soll einem Entwässerungssystem zugeführt werden (siehe DE 20 2010 008 256 U1 ). Es war deshalb die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Schienensystem mit einer Verbindung zu einem Entwässerungssystem zur Verfügung zu stellen.Such rail systems are known from the prior art. In this rail system, the guide groove must have drainage recesses at regular intervals to prevent water from accumulating in the guide groove. This water should be fed to a drainage system (see DE 20 2010 008 256 U1 ). It was therefore the object of the present invention to provide a rail system with a connection to a drainage system.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe mit einem Schienensystem mit zwei Schienen für ein Schienenfahrzeug, die jeweils eine Führungsrille mit einer Entwässerungsausnehmung aufweisen, gemäß dem Anspruch 1. Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Schienensystem mit zwei Schienen für ein Schienenfahrzeug. Jede Schiene weist innenliegend eine Führungsrille auf, die in regelmäßigen Abständen Entwässerungsausnehmungen aufweist, durch die Wasser in der Führungsrille ablaufen kann. Es ist nun quer zu den Schienen und im Bereich der Entwässerungsausnehmung eine Entwässerungsrinne vorgesehen, wobei in der Wandung der Entwässerungsrinne für jede Schiene jeweils eine Ausnehmung vorgesehen ist. Dadurch ist der Abstand zwischen der Entwässerungsausnehmung und der Rinne deutlich reduziert und es muss keine zusätzliche Entwässerungsleitung zwischen der Entwässerungsausnehmung und der Entwässerungsrinne vorgesehen werden.The object is achieved with a rail system with two rails for a rail vehicle, each having a guide groove with a Entwässerungsausnehmung, according to claim 1. The present invention relates to a rail system with two rails for a rail vehicle. Each rail has a guide groove on the inside, which has drainage recesses at regular intervals, through which water can drain in the guide groove. It is now provided transversely to the rails and in the region of the drainage recess a drainage channel, wherein in each case a recess is provided in the wall of the drainage channel for each rail. As a result, the distance between the drainage and the gutter is significantly reduced and no additional drainage line between the drainage and the drainage channel must be provided.

Die Entwässerungsrinne verfügt über zwei im Wesentlichen vertikal vorgesehene Wandungen, die jeweils die Ausnehmung für die Schiene aufweisen. Die Entwässerungsrinne kann aus jedem dem Fachmann geläufigen Material hergestellt sein. Vorzugsweise handelt es sich um eine Kunststoff-, Beton- oder Polybetonrinne. Die Länge der Rinne ist vorzugsweise so vorgesehen, dass zwischen zwei Schienen eines Schienensystems keine Verbindungsstelle zwischen zwei Entwässerungsrinnen vorgesehen ist.The drainage channel has two substantially vertically provided walls, each having the recess for the rail. The drainage channel may be made of any material known to those skilled in the art. Preferably, it is a plastic, concrete or Polybetonrinne. The length the channel is preferably provided so that no connection point between two drainage channels is provided between two rails of a rail system.

Vorzugweise entspricht die Kontur der Ausnehmung zumindest abschnittsweise dem Negativ der Innenkontur der Schiene. Dadurch entsteht eine nahezu spaltfreie Verbindung zwischen der Schiene und der Entwässerungsrinne sodass das Wasser das aus der Entwässerungsausnehmung läuft, vollständig von der Entwässerungsrinne aufgefangen wird.Preferably, the contour of the recess at least partially corresponds to the negative of the inner contour of the rail. This results in a virtually gap-free connection between the rail and the drainage channel so that the water that runs out of the drainage recess is completely absorbed by the drainage channel.

Vorzugsweise ist zwischen der Schiene und der Wandung der Rinne ein elastisches Material beispielsweise Schaumstoff vorgesehen. Vorzugsweise umgibt dieser Schaumstoff die Schiene an drei Seiten von deren Oberfläche. Im Bereich der Entwässerungsausnehmung weist das elastische Material vorzugsweise ebenfalls eine Ausnehmung auf oder das elastische Material ist nur jeweils im Bereich der Wandung vorgesehen.Preferably, an elastic material, for example foam, is provided between the rail and the wall of the channel. Preferably, this foam surrounds the rail on three sides of its surface. In the region of the drainage recess, the elastic material preferably also has a recess or the elastic material is only provided in each case in the region of the wall.

Vorzugsweise weist die Entwässerungsrinne eine Abdeckung auf.Preferably, the drainage channel has a cover.

Die Länge der Entwässerungsrinne eines Schienensystems ist erfingdungsgemäß so vorgesehen, dass sich seine beiden Enden jeweils über die Außenkontur der jeweiligen Schiene hinaus erstrecken und in diesem Bereich vorzugsweise einstückig vorgesehen sind. An den Enden 3.1 kann sich dann jeweils ein weiteres Entwässerungsrinnenelement 3 anschließen. Die Entwässerungsrinne im Bereich von zwei Schienen, die zu einem Schienenstrang gehören, ist vorzugsweise einstückig vorgesehen.According to the invention, the length of the drainage channel of a rail system is provided such that its two ends each extend beyond the outer contour of the respective rail and are preferably provided integrally in this region. At the ends 3.1 can then each connect another drainage channel element 3. The drainage channel in the region of two rails, which belong to a rail track, is preferably provided in one piece.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand der Figuren 1 und 2 erläutert. Diese Erläuterungen sind lediglich beispielhaft und schränken den allgemeinen Erfindungsgedanken nicht ein.

  • Figur 1 zeigt eine erste Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Schienensystems.
  • Figur 2 zeigt eine zweite Ausführung des erfindungsgemäßen Schienensystems.
In the following, the invention is based on the Figures 1 and 2 explained. These explanations are merely exemplary and do not limit the general inventive concept.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the rail system according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of the rail system according to the invention.

Figur 1 zeigt eine erste Ausführung des erfindungsgemäßen Schienensystems 1, das zwei parallel zueinander vorgesehene Schienen 2 aufweist. Jede Schiene 2 verfügt über eine Führungsrille 2.3, die in regelmäßigen Abständen eine Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 aufweist, durch die Wasser aus der Führungsrille 2.3 ablaufen kann. Im Bereich dieser Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 ist quer zu der Längserstreckung der Schienen 2 eine FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the rail system 1 according to the invention, which has two mutually parallel rails 2. Each rail 2 has a guide groove 2.3, which at regular intervals has a drainage recess 2.2, through which water can drain from the guide groove 2.3. In the region of this drainage recess 2.2 is transverse to the longitudinal extent of the rails 2 a

Entwässerungsrinne 3 vorgesehen. Das Wasser, das sich in der Führungsrille 2.3 sammelt, läuft durch die Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 in die Entwässerungsrinne 3 und wird von dort beispielsweise einem Abwassersystem zugeführt. An seiner Oberseite weist die Entwässerungsrinne 3 eine Abdeckung (nicht dargestellt), beispielsweise ein Gitterrost, auf. Dieser Gitterrost wird vorzugsweise mittels elektrischen Isolierungen 4, die vorzugsweise an der Innenkontur 2.1 jeder Schiene vorgesehen sind, elektrisch von der jeweiligen Schiene getrennt. Erfindungsgemäß weist die Wandung der Entwässerungsrinne für jede Schiene 2 jeweils eine Ausnehmung 6 vor. In dem vorliegenden Fall entspricht die Kontur der Ausnehmung 6 zumindest abschnittsweise der Innenkontur 2.1 der Schiene. Dadurch entsteht eine nahezu spaltfreie Verbindung zwischen der Schiene und der Entwässerungsrinne, sodass das Wasser das aus der Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 läuft vollständig von der Entwässerungsrinne aufgefangen wird. Die Länge der Enwässerungsrinne, insbesondere eines Entwässerungsrinnenelementes 3, ist so vorgesehen, dass sich seine Enden 3.1 jeweils über die Außenkontur 2.4 der Schienen 2 erstrecken und in diesem Bereich vorzugsweise einstückig vorgesehen sind. An den Enden 3.1 kann sich dann jeweils ein weiteres Entwässerungsrinnenelement 3 anschließen.Drainage channel 3 provided. The water, which collects in the guide groove 2.3, passes through the Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 in the drainage channel 3 and is supplied from there, for example, a sewer system. At its top, the drainage channel 3, a cover (not shown), for example, a grid on. This grating is preferably electrically separated from the respective rail by means of electrical insulation 4, which are preferably provided on the inner contour 2.1 of each rail. According to the invention, the wall of the drainage channel for each rail 2 in each case a recess 6 before. In the present case, the contour of the recess 6 corresponds at least in sections to the inner contour 2.1 of the rail. This creates a virtually gap-free connection between the rail and the drainage channel, so that the water that runs out of the drainage recess 2.2 is completely absorbed by the drainage channel. The length of the drainage channel, in particular a drainage channel element 3, is provided so that its ends 3.1 each extend beyond the outer contour 2.4 of the rails 2 and are preferably provided integrally in this area. At the ends 3.1 can then each connect another drainage channel element 3.

Figur 2 zeigt im Wesentlichen die Ausführungsform gemäß Figur 1, wobei in dem vorliegenden Fall die Ausnehmung 6 zumindest abschnittsweise mit einem elastischen Material insbesondere einem Schaumstoffmaterial verfüllt ist. Insbesondere wird der Spalt zwischen der Schiene und der Wandung, in der die Ausnehmung 6 vorgesehen ist, mit dem elastischen Material gefüllt. Das elastische Material dichtet vorzugsweise diesen Spalt vorzugsweise wasserdicht ab. In dem vorliegenden Fall umgibt das elastische Material 5 die Schiene an drei Seiten. Auch hierdurch ist eine sichere Ableitung des Wassers von der Entwässerungsausnehmung 2.2 in die Rinne 3 gegeben. FIG. 2 essentially shows the embodiment according to FIG FIG. 1 , In the present case, the recess 6 is at least partially filled with an elastic material, in particular a foam material. In particular, the gap between the rail and the wall in which the recess 6 is provided is filled with the elastic material. The elastic material preferably seals this gap from waterproof. In the present case, the elastic material 5 surrounds the rail on three sides. This also ensures safe discharge of the water from the drainage recess 2.2 into the channel 3.
