  • the stop means 21 comprise at least a pair of blocking bodies 22, 23 such as for example a pair of rollers destined, in use conditions, to abut the web 18 of the rail, preventing a sliding mode between the rail 2 and the first coupling device 5 at least in an extraction direction E of the end 2b of the rail 2 from the coupling device 5.
  • the stop means 21 also comprise at least one or two respective elastic elements 24, 25 that can abut the blocking bodies 22, 23 for example to the web 18 of the rail 2 to be blocked ( figure 11 ).
  • the activation means 15 in fact oppose the action of the elastic element or elements 24, 25 of the stop means 21 in the inactive condition of the blocking system (i.e. when the mobile bodies 16, 17 are spaced from each other) and therefore allow the relative sliding of the rail 2 with respect to the first coupling device 5.
  • the mobile bodies 16, 17 reach the end of their sliding along the web 18 and are then approached by the respective elastic elements 19, 20; the activating means 15 enable the respective elastic elements 24, 25 of the stop means to intervene on the blocking bodies 22, 23 which, in turn, abut on the web 18 of the rail ( figure 11 ) relatively blocking the first coupling device 5 and the rail 2.
  • first coupling device 5 in accordance with the further embodiment includes a support structure 26 destined to define the abovementioned seating 8.
  • the support structure 26 of figure 12 will be defined by at least two parts 26a, 26b distanceable from each other (for example, they might be hinged or constrained by screws) to enable the opening of the seating 8 and the disengagement of a rail contained in the seating.
  • This operation should generally be performed every time the equipment is to be removed from an unloaded rail.
  • the second coupling device 6 comprises blocking means 30 for generating a stop force on the web 18 of the adjacent rail 3.
  • the second coupling device 6 cannot enable relative sliding between the adjacent rail 3 and the equipment itself (if not during the step of initial insertion of the web 18 in the seating), generating only a solid constraint between equipment and rail once assembled.
  • the second coupling device can comprise a first and a second wing 27, 28 interfaced and coupled together in such a way as to be spaced longitudinally defining a cavity 29 between them having an opening of such dimensions as to be able to receive a web 18 of the adjacent rail 3 ( figures 4 , 5 , 13 , 14a, 14b, 14c ).
  • the blocking means 30 are associated with at least one of the wings 27, 28 and in general to both in order to generate the blocking force on the web 18 itself.
  • the blocking means 30 enable an insertion of the web 18 in the cavity 29 in a coupling direction 33 and an insertion direction I, and generate the blocking force in situations of extraction movement of the web 18 in an extraction direction E opposite the insertion direction in the same coupling direction 33.
  • the blocking means 30 can comprise at least one and in particular at least two curved-profile blocking bodies 31, 32 which will enable insertion of the web 18 in the cavity in the above-mentioned coupling direction in the insertion direction I and generate a blocking force in an extraction movement situation of the web 18 in the extraction direction and opposite the insertion direction of I.
  • figure 5 illustrates the preferred embodiment of the second blocking device 6.
  • the curved-profile blocking bodies 31, 32 each have two curved surfaces, one upper and one lower, and contact with the web 18 of the rail 3.
  • the wheels 31, 32 are mounted such as to projectingly emerge internally of the cavity 29 and each exhibits a hinging 34 to the respective wing 27, 28 that is offset (by a distance "e" with respect to the centre of symmetry 35 of the wheel).
  • the offset positioning of the axis of rotation in a position close to the area of insertion of the rail with respect to the centre of symmetry means that during extraction the off-centre position blocks the relative sliding movement between the equipment and the rail.
  • the coupling device can comprise the same respective guide seatings 36, 37 having inclined walls to the inserting axis of the cavity 29.
  • the wheels 31, 32 are mobile by sliding in said seatings 36, 37 in the inclined direction.
  • two further guides may be present (for example, grooves 45) suitable for defining the minimum and maximum run of the wheels along the guide seatings 36, 37 inside the cavity 29.
  • Elastic elements 38, 39 are present, active between the wings 27, 28 of the second coupling device and the respective wheel 31, 32, such as to position them in a condition of maximum extraction.
  • a movement of the rail in the opposite direction is opposed by the aforementioned rollers 31, 32 which cannot move along the inclined guides.
  • reciprocal clamping systems can be used during the coupling step to the front portion 3a of the rail 3.
  • the connecting element 7 is configurable in a rest position shown in figure 1a in which is inclined with respect to the first and second coupling device 5 and to the direction of longitudinal development 14 of the rails; and in a working position during the extraction step in which the connecting element 7 is aligned with the first and second coupling devices 5, 6 along the overall development direction of the of the apparatus 1.
  • the angle of inclination is such as to maintain the ends of the rails aligned; obviously the connecting devices 5 and 6 could be aligned and the connecting element have an axis of development perpendicular to that of the rails with the latter slightly longitudinally staggered.
  • the connecting element 7 will generally be hinged to the first and second coupling device 5, 6 in such a way that it can rotate relatively during the extraction step, realigning the rails subsequently extracted as can be seen by comparing figures 1A , 1B , 1C .
  • a stop structure 40 can be provided, active exclusively in the aligned configuration which operates in particular automatically when the aligned configuration is reached.
  • the first coupling device 5 constrains to the rear end 2b thereof and starts to drag the connecting element and therefore the second coupling device 6 which in turn is rigidly constrained to the next rail 3.
  • the connecting element 7 begins to rotate such as to bring the rails 2 and 3 into alignment along the axis of development, i.e. from the configuration of figure 2 to that of figure 7 .
  • an abutment structure 56 of the connecting element 7 defined by a central vertical plate abuttingly receives a stop wing 57 borne by the support structure 26 of the first coupling device which can prevent additional rotations in the same rotation direction which can cause misalignment or oscillations around the alignment position.
  • the second coupling device 6 is provided with an abutment portion 58 (see figure 9 ) which is aligned in the same configuration as the connecting element 7 and abuts the above-mentioned abutment structure 56 at a lateral surface thereof, preventing further rotations of the second coupling device 6 which can lead to misalignments or oscillations around the aligned configuration.
  • the stop structure 40 can alternatively be constituted by a blocking pin and an elastic pusher which, in the aligned configuration, will engage a respective seating to eliminate the freedom to rotate (structure not shown).
  • the pin may be mounted on the connecting element or the respective first or second coupling device and the respective seating on the element opposite.
  • the pin and the seating are also aligned (axially) and the elastic element can intervene to guarantee insertion of the pin in the seating and eliminate the rotating liberty with respect to both the first coupling device and the second coupling device, in this way maintaining the aligned configuration.
  • the equipment can also be mounted at the opposite end of the rails, i.e. the first rail to bring the second coupling device mounted on the rear end and the first sliding coupling device can be mounted on the immediately adjacent rail without there being substantial variations in functioning of the equipment.
  • the equipment can be mounted during the loading step of the transport truck and does not require the intervention of operators during the rail unloading steps.
  • the coupling device is automatically activated on reaching the end of the rail, blocking and dragging it by means of the connecting element and the second blocking device and the rail until all the rails are unloaded.
  • the system is exclusively mechanical and is conceptually simple and substantially cheaper in terms of labour time than the corresponding operations carried out up to today for unloading rails.
