Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coupling device for a carriage and a carriage, which has the coupling device and is rail-guided.
  • a coupling constructed of permanent magnets is known, the coupling halves of which are attached to one of the carriages, with two oppositely arranged permanent magnets with unequal magnetic poles facing one another, so that the coupling of the carriages is accomplished by a magnetic attraction of the two coupling halves at their contact.
  • the disadvantage here is that when coupling the car is to pay attention to a correspondingly unequal Magnetpolpanung, whereby the flexibility is impaired when putting together a wagon train.
  • the magnetic coupling has a low lateral mobility, whereby the passage of the wagon train through narrow curves is only possible to a limited extent.
  • the magnetic coupling halves are identical and thus compatible, so that the car can be coupled together regardless of their direction of travel orientation. Further, it is desirable that steep curves, in particular S-curves, and ramps with a high pitch are manageable with the wagon train. Moreover, when using the magnetic coupling in the toy train, it is desirable that the magnetic coupling is child-friendly and correspondingly simple in its operation.
  • the magnetic coupling should be designed so that no parts of it that can be swallowed by a child, for example, or have sharp broken edges at which a child could injure themselves.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a coupling device for a car and the car, which is rail-guided and has the coupling device, wherein the coupling device is simple in construction and handling, and a safe coupling of the car especially when driving through tight turns and steep Ramps allowed.
  • the carriage on the coupling device and is rail-guided.
  • the projections of the contact backs in Wagenquerachsenraum are uniform and congruent.
  • the contact backs are preferably raised.
  • the side of the coupling body facing away from the bearing has a convex contact surface into which the contact backs are integrated such that the contact backs lie flat in the contact surface. That is, the contact surface is barrel-shaped curved about the car transverse axis, wherein the contact backs are defined by the magnetization at the contact surface. Preferred dimensions is attached to the Contact vertices each formed a magnetic pole, whereby two of the carriage can be coupled by the magnetic attraction in the contact of the contact back of the first carriage with the contact back of the second carriage.
  • the contact surface is a surface segment of a straight circular cylinder whose axis is perpendicular to the car vertical axis.
  • the contact surface is preferably formed smooth with their contact backs, so that two coupling devices coupled to one another can be unrolled at their contact surfaces and / or can be displaced relative to one another in car vertical axis directions.
  • the coupling body preferably has two contact backs and is preferably designed as a bar magnet whose first magnetic pole is located on one of the contact backs and whose second magnetic pole is located on the other contact back.
  • the magnetic poles are arranged at the end-side longitudinal ends of the bar magnet, wherein preferably the contact backs can coincide with an end-side boundary edge of the contact surface.
  • the coupling body preferably has alternatively two contact backs, which are each made of a ferromagnetic material and ferromagnetically insulated from each other, wherein one of the contact backs magnetized and the other contact back is unmagnetized.
  • the coupling body preferably has an intermediate region, which is arranged between the contact backs and made of a non-ferromagnetic material, in particular plastic or aluminum, whereby the contact backs are magnetically isolated from one another with the intermediate region.
  • both contact backs are made of a ferromagnetic material and magnetized, wherein the two contact backs are ferromagnetically insulated from each other and the arrangement of the magnetic poles on the contact back is in opposite directions to each other.
  • the bearing is arranged such that the coupling body is pivotable about the Wagenquerumblese.
  • the bearing has a bearing ring and a bearing pin, which attached to the carriage extends through the bearing ring with such a large game that the bearing ring for tilting the coupling body on the bearing pin is tilted.
  • the bearing further comprises a recess in the carriage, which is dimensioned such that the bearing ring is inserted with such a large clearance in the recess, that the bearing ring for pivoting the coupling body on the bearing pin is tilted.
  • the bearing ring preferably has a circular cross-section.
  • the bearing ring is preferably formed toroidal.
  • the car is a toy railway car. It is also preferred that the carriage is provided in a conveyor technology device, for example in a carriage-based transport system for a high-bay warehouse.
  • the coupling device With the coupling device, the mobility of two coupled to the coupling device car is defined.
  • a rotation about the car vertical axis and a rotation about the car transverse axis is made possible.
  • cornering the car causes it to shear their longitudinal ends and move the opposite longitudinal ends of the car laterally to each other.
  • the two opposite longitudinal ends move in vertical direction as they pass through the valley bottoms and the hilltops.
  • the coupling device is advantageously mounted on toy rail car because high demands are placed on the mobility of coupled with the coupling device carriages in a toy train due to the relatively tight bends and steep gradients.
  • the coupling body, the drawbar and the bearing ring are preferably integrally formed.
  • the coupling device has few components, whereby the coupling device is easy to handle and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the coupling device is thus easy to set up suitable for children, as about individual small components that could possibly be swallowed, are not provided in the coupling device. Rather, the coupling device is robustly equipped, so that the coupling device can meet increased requirements in terms of stability as a toy.
  • the coupling body preferably has neodymium, which is magnetized transversely to the direction of travel of the carriage.
  • the carriage is provided with the coupling device at its two longitudinal ends, i. back and front, provided. Seen in the direction of travel, for example, in the case of the front coupling device, the north pole is on the left and the south pole on the right, and on the rear coupling device, the south pole on the left and the north pole on the right. If two of the carriages are pushed together and the coupling devices are brought into mutual contact with their contact backs, north poles and south poles face each other, as a result of which the two coupling devices are magnetically attracted.
  • the north poles and south poles face each other again at the two mutually facing coupling devices, so that orientation of the carriages in the direction of travel does not occur when the carriages are coupled together.
  • Two coupled by means of the coupling devices car are rotatable by means of bearings around the car's vertical axis.
  • the fact that the pairs adjacent contact backs are rolled together, a vertical pivoting of the car is possible.
  • the car are vertically displaceable.
  • This vertical displacement of the Carriage is supported by the fact that the bearings are pivotable about the car transverse axis.
  • the adjacent coupling devices are transversely displaceable, which in addition to the rotation of the bearing about the car vertical axis a horizontal displacement of the car is mutually possible.
  • the bearing clearance is preferably chosen such that in the uncoupled state, the coupling device remains largely horizontal on the car.
  • Preferred dimensions of the recess is dimensioned such that the rotation of the bearing is limited to the carriage axis, so that the longitudinal ends of the coupling body can not reach the central axis of the car. This is advantageous when coupling two carriages, since first the longitudinal ends of the coupling body approach one of the longitudinal ends and then, after the carriages are pushed together, the longitudinal ends of the other side of the coupling bodies approximate.
  • a carriage 1 has a chassis block 2, on the top of a chassis plate 3 is arranged.
  • the chassis block 2 is elongated, wherein the chassis plate 3 is flush with the chassis block 2.
