Abstract
L'invention concerne une voie ferrée comportant deux rails (7,8) essentiellement parallèles et une structure de support monolithique en béton, la structure de support comportant des supports de rail (3,5) en saillie et unradier(11) reposant sur le sol ou sur une fondation, et formant une gorge essentiellement continue entre les deux rails.The invention relates to a railroad track comprising two substantially parallel rails (7, 8) and a monolithic concrete support structure, the support structure having projecting rail supports (3, 5) and a ridge (11) resting on the ground or on a foundation, and forming a substantially continuous groove between the two rails.
Description
La présente invention est relative à une voie ferrée, notamment une voie ferréereposant sur une base ou plate-forme, tel que le sol, sans ballast,et dans laquelle les rails sont agencéssur une construction en matériaux durs, tels que du béton armé. Elle concerne également des éléments modulaires préfabriqués qui peuvent être assemblés afin de constituer une voie ferrée en matériaux durs à poser sur un radier ou plate-forme tel que le sol, sans utilisation de ballast.The present invention relates to a railroad track, especially a railroad laying on a base or platform, such as the ground, without ballast, and wherein the rails are arranged on a construction of hard materials, such as reinforced concrete. It also relates to prefabricated modular elements that can be assembled to form a railroad made of hard materials to be laid on a raft or platform such as the ground, without the use of ballast.
Dans une voie ferrée classique, les rails sont solidarisés à des traverses en bois, en béton, notamment en béton précontraint, métalliques ou composées de blocs en béton reliés par une entretoise métallique. Les traverses maintiennent l'écartement des rails et l'inclinaison voulue de la voie. Elles sont posées sur ou noyées dans une couche de ballast constitué de roches dures concassées et transmettent la charge au ballast et ainsi au sol. L'épaisseur de la couche de ballast est fonction de la charge et de l'intensité du trafic et est de l'ordre de 30 à 50 cm. Le ballast maintien le nivellement de la voie et assure une position stable dans le plan de la voie, en résistant aux efforts transversaux qui tendent à déformer le tracé et aux efforts longitudinaux.Leballast doit être perméable à l'eau et assurer une élasticité appropriée.In a conventional railway, the rails are secured to wooden sleepers, concrete, including prestressed concrete, metal or composed of concrete blocks connected by a metal spacer. The sleepers maintain the gauge of the rails and the desired inclination of the track. They are laid on or embedded in a layer of ballast made of hard crushed rock and transmit the load to the ballast and thus to the ground. The thickness of the ballast layer is a function of the load and the intensity of the traffic and is of the order of 30 to 50 cm. The ballast maintains the leveling of the track and ensures a stable position in the plane of the track, resisting transverse forces that tend to distort the course and longitudinal forces. The ballast must be permeable to water and provide adequate elasticity.
Dans le cas de voies ferrées construites dans des régions sablonneuses, comme les dunes ou le désert, le sableou tout autre matériau en suspension en cas de vent ou plus particulièrement de tempête de sable, a tendance à colmater les interstices entre les pierrailles du ballast. Il en résulte une perte d'élasticité et de perméabilité du ballast ce qui conduit à devoir limiter la vitesse d'exploitation et en augmente les fréquences d'entretien. Il en résulte aussi une réduction importante de la durée de vie de la voie. Les coûts d'entretien et/ou de remplacement du ballast sont donc élevés. Par ailleurs, le sable remplit aisément l'espace entre rails et en cas de tempête risque de recouvrir totalement la voie ferrée, rendant ainsi difficile, dangereuse, voire impossible toute circulation de véhicule ferroviaire.In the case of railways built in sandy areas, such as dunes or desert, sand or other suspended material in case of wind or more particularly of sandstorms, tends to clog the interstices between ballast stones. This results in a loss of elasticity and permeability of the ballast which leads to having to limit the speed of operation and increases maintenance frequencies. This also results in a significant reduction in the life of the track. The costs of maintenance and / or replacement of the ballast are therefore high. In addition, the sand easily fills the space between rails and in case of storm may completely cover the railway, thus making it difficult, dangerous or impossible for any rail vehicle traffic.
Dans le cas de voies ferrées construites dans des régions fortement enneigées, la neige a tendance à s'introduire dans le ballast et de le figer par congélation, diminuant ainsi l'élasticité du support. Par ailleurs, en cas de tempête, la neige risque de recouvrir totalement la voie ferrée, rendant toute circulation périlleuse, voire impossible.In the case of railways built in heavily snow-covered areas, snow tends to get into the ballast and congeal it by freezing, thus reducing the elasticity of the support. Moreover, in the event of a storm, the snow risks completely covering the railway, making any traffic dangerous or even impossible.
On connaît également des voies ferrées en béton, dont le ballast a été remplacé du moins en partie par une assise en béton armé ; voir
Lorsque les rails sont noyés dans le béton, l'élasticité du support des rails est généralement assurée par des éléments en matériaux élastomères. Ceux-ci sont conçus pour assurer une isolation acoustique et électrique du rail par rapport au béton sur lequel ou dans lequel les rails reposent.When the rails are embedded in the concrete, the elasticity of the rail support is generally provided by elements made of elastomeric materials. These are designed to provide acoustic and electrical insulation of the rail relative to concrete on which or in which the rails rest.
Vu l'absence de ballast, ce type de voie ferrée ne présente pas les inconvénients cités ci-dessus en rapport avec le ballast, mais l'ensablement ou l'enneigement de la voie pose toujours problème.Given the absence of ballast, this type of railway does not have the disadvantages mentioned above in connection with the ballast, but silting or snow-making is always a problem.
Undes buts de l'invention consiste à fournir une voie ferrée en matériaux durs, sans ballast, qui permet d'éviter ou tout au moins de retarder significativement l'ensablement ou l'enneigement lors de l'exposition aux tempêtes de sables ou tempêtes de neige.One of the aims of the invention is to provide a railroad made of hard materials, without ballast, which makes it possible to avoid or at least significantly delay sand or snow during exposure to sandstorms or storms. snow.
Un autre but de l'invention consiste à fournir un module préfabriqué qui peut être assemblé avec un module similaire afin de constituer une voie ferrée en matériaux durs à poser sur une radier ou plate-forme tel que le sol, sans utilisation de ballast.Another object of the invention is to provide a prefabricated module that can be assembled with a similar module to form a railroad made of hard materials to be laid on a raft or platform such as the ground, without the use of ballast.
Encore un autre but de l'invention consiste à maintenir l'élasticité constante de la voie, indépendamment des conditions climatiques, du sable ou de la neige.Yet another object of the invention is to maintain the constant elasticity of the track, regardless of weather conditions, sand or snow.
Un but supplémentaire de l'invention est de réduire les coûts de maintenance de la voie (bourrage, entretien des attaches) et le coût du criblage du ballast afin d'en extraire les impuretés pour rendre l'élasticité d'origine de la voie et enfin d'allonger la durée de vie de la voie.A further object of the invention is to reduce the costs of maintenance of the track (tamping, maintenance of fasteners) and the cost of screening the ballast in order to extract the impurities to make the original elasticity of the track and Finally, to extend the life of the track.
L'invention consiste en une voie ferrée comportant deux rails essentiellement parallèles et une structure de support en béton, la structure de support comportant des supports de rail en saillie, qui sont solidaires d'un radier en béton reposantsur le sol ou sur une fondationet qui forment une gorge essentiellement continue entre les deux rails.The invention consists of a railroad track having two substantially parallel rails and a concrete support structure, the support structure having projecting rail supports which are integral with a concrete baseplate resting on the ground or on a foundation and which form a substantially continuous groove between the two rails.
Selon une première forme d'exécution, les supports de rail consistent en des plots alignés espacés solidaires d'unradier en béton reposant sur le sol ou sur une fondation. De préférence, l'ensemble comportant plots et radier est monolithique et constitué de béton armé, tout particulièrement de béton précontraint. Les plots doivent bien entendu supporter les charges statiques et dynamiques des véhicules circulant sur la voie.According to a first embodiment, the rail supports consist of aligned spaced apart studs of a concrete unradier resting on the ground or on a foundation. Preferably, the assembly comprising pads and slab is monolithic and made of reinforced concrete, especially prestressed concrete. The studs must of course withstand the static and dynamic loads of vehicles traveling on the track.
Selon une autre forme d'exécution, les supports de rail consistent chacun en un épaulement continu ou une poutre en saillie, solidaire d'unradier en béton reposant sur le sol ou sur une fondation. De préférence, l'ensemble comportant les deux épaulements continus et la radier est monolithique et constitué de béton armé, tout particulièrement de béton précontraint afin de pouvoir supporter les charges statiques et dynamiques des véhicules circulant sur la voie.In another embodiment, the rail supports each consist of a continuous shoulder or a projecting beam, integral with a concrete rack resting on the ground or on a foundation. Preferably, the assembly comprising the two continuous shoulders and the raft is monolithic and made of reinforced concrete, especially prestressed concrete to withstand the static and dynamic loads of vehicles traveling on the track.
Avantageusement, les supports de rail comportent des ouvertures les traversant dans le sens transversal à la voie, de préférence situées l'une en face de l'autre, afin de permettre le passage de sable ou même de neige en cas de tempête.Advantageously, the rail supports have openings crossing them in the direction transverse to the track, preferably located opposite each other, to allow the passage of sand or even snow in the event of a storm.
Selon une forme d'exécution avantageuse, les ouvertures vont en se rétrécissant de l'extérieur vers la gorge comprise entre les deux rails.According to an advantageous embodiment, the openings are tapering from the outside to the groove between the two rails.
On a constaté qu'en cas de tempête de sable notamment, la gorge créée entre les deux rails peut se remplir de sable. Vu la profondeur de la gorge, une quantité significative de sable peut s'y accumuler avant de recouvrir la voie et la rendre impraticable.It has been noted that in the event of a sandstorm in particular, the groove created between the two rails can be filled with sand. Given the depth of the gorge, a significant amount of sand can accumulate before covering the track and make it impassable.
On a également constaté que lorsque des ouvertures sont pratiquées dans les supports de rail, le vent chasse en partie du moins le sable au travers de ces ouvertures et au travers de la gorge évitant ou retardant significativement l'accumulation de sable dans ladite gorge. Des ouvertures se rétrécissant dans les sens allant de l'extérieur vers la gorge accentuent encore cet effet par l'effet de tuyère ainsi généré.It has also been found that when openings are made in the rail supports, the wind at least partially expels the sand through these openings and through throat avoiding or significantly delaying the accumulation of sand in said groove. Openings narrowing in the direction from the outside to the groove further accentuate this effect by the nozzle effect thus generated.
Par ailleurs, vu l'agencement d'une gorge continue et sans obstacle, la voie ferrée de l'invention permet un nettoyage aisé de la gorge après la tempête, notamment à l'aide d'un engin de manutention, comme par exemple une pelleteuse qui peut avantageusement circuler sur la voie elle-même.Moreover, given the arrangement of a continuous and unobstructed groove, the railway of the invention allows easy cleaning of the throat after the storm, especially with the aid of a handling machine, such as a excavator which can advantageously circulate on the track itself.
La description ci-dessus des avantages de l'invention dans le cas de l'utilisation de la voie ferrée en milieu fortement sablonneux, comme le désert ou les dunes, s'applique par analogie aussi au cas de l'utilisation de la voie ferrée en milieu fortement enneigé.The above description of the advantages of the invention in the case of the use of the railway in a highly sandy environment, such as the desert or the dunes, applies by analogy also to the case of the use of the railway in a heavily snowy environment.
Les rails peuvent être fixés de manière connue en soi sur lesdits supports. Avantageusement, la partie supérieure desdits supports présente une section triangulaire ou trapézoïdale ou convexe évitant ou réduisant le risque d'accumulation de sable sur la crête du support, à proximité immédiate des rails.The rails can be fixed in a manner known per se on said supports. Advantageously, the upper part of said supports has a triangular or trapezoidal or convex section avoiding or reducing the risk of accumulation of sand on the crest of the support, in the immediate vicinity of the rails.
Selon une forme d'exécution préférée, le rail est entouré d'une jaquette en matériau élastomère et noyé dans le béton du support de rail en saillie. La jaquette assure un logement élastique du rail dans le sens perpendiculaire à la voie ainsi que transversalement par rapport à celle-ci, rôle quidans l'état de la techniqueest assuré par le ballast. L'invention permet ainsi d'éviter les conséquences néfastes que génèrent l'ensablement et l'enneigement du ballast. Il n'est pas nécessaire non plus de prévoir de fixation métallique du rail à son support en béton, le rail étant maintenu sur son support par la jaquette noyée dans le béton. Cet agencement permet donc d'éviter les fixations métalliques qui ont tendance à se corroder. Par ailleurs, la jaquette assure une isolation acoustique et électrique du rail.According to a preferred embodiment, the rail is surrounded by a jacket of elastomeric material and embedded in the concrete of the rail support projecting. The jacket provides an elastic housing of the rail in the direction perpendicular to the track and transversely to it, role in the state of the artis provided by the ballast. The invention thus makes it possible to avoid the harmful consequences that the sanding and snow-making of the ballast generate. Nor is it necessary to provide metal fastening of the rail to its concrete support, the rail being held on its support by the jacket embedded in the concrete. This arrangement allows therefore avoid metal fasteners that tend to corrode. In addition, the jacket provides acoustic and electrical insulation of the rail.
La jaquette peut avantageusement être constituée de particules de pneumatiques broyés, liées entre elles par un liant à base de polyuréthane, de polyéthylène, par exemple du polyéthylène recyclé, ou d'autres liants adéquats. On a constaté que le caoutchouc provenant de pneumatiques recyclés offre une élasticité adéquate pour ce genre d'application. L'homme de l'art adaptera l'épaisseur de la jaquette aux exigences mécaniques imposées par les coefficients de sécurité, les charges statiques et dynamiques à supporter dans chaque cas d'application. Par ailleurs, la jaquette est destinée à garantir l'isolation électrique du rail par rapport à son support.The jacket may advantageously consist of ground tire particles bonded together by a binder based on polyurethane, polyethylene, for example recycled polyethylene, or other suitable binders. Rubber from recycled tires has been found to provide adequate elasticity for this type of application. Those skilled in the art will adapt the thickness of the jacket to the mechanical requirements imposed by the safety coefficients, the static and dynamic loads to bear in each case of application. In addition, the jacket is intended to guarantee the electrical insulation of the rail relative to its support.
La voie ferrée selon l'invention peut avantageusement être coulée sur place. Selon une autre forme d'exécution de l'invention, on peut prévoir des modules préfabriqués que l'on peut agencer et assembler sur chantier l'un à la suite de l'autre afin de former une voie continue.The railway according to the invention can advantageously be cast in situ. According to another embodiment of the invention, prefabricated modules can be provided that can be arranged and assembled on site one after the other to form a continuous path.

La voie ferrée de l'invention comporte deux supports 3 et 5 et deux rails 7 et 8. Les deux supports forment saillie sur une dalle de radier 11 et forment de préférence une seule pièce avec celle-ci. Celle-ci est avantageusement en béton armé, de préférence précontraint. La dalle de radier repose sur le sol ou sur une fondation adéquate.The railway of the invention comprises two

Les jaquettes 13 et 15 présentent des épaulements 17, 19, 21 et 23 qui les retiennent dans leur logement pratiqué dans le béton des supports de rail.

Divers matériaux ont été utilisés pour les jaquettes. On a obtenu de bons résultats avec des particules de caoutchouc de pneumatiques broyés, liées par un liant à base de polyuréthane ou de polyéthylène, de préférence de polyéthylène recyclé. On peut alors régler l'élasticité de la jaquette en fonction de son épaisseur en pratiquant des trous ou ouvertures dans le coeur du matériau, sans pour autant affecter les fonctions de logement élastique et d'isolant de la jaquette.Various materials were used for the jackets. Good results have been obtained with comminuted tire rubber particles bonded by a binder based on polyurethane or polyethylene, preferably recycled polyethylene. It is then possible to adjust the elasticity of the jacket according to its thickness by making holes or openings in the core of the material, without affecting the elastic housing functions and insulation of the jacket.
L'extrémité supérieure des supports de rail présente avantageusement une section triangulaire ou trapézoïdale ou convexe afin de réduire le risque d'accumulation de sable ou de neige sur les supports, à proximité des rails. Dans ce cas, la jaquette épouse à sa partie supérieure une forme et section adaptées à la forme du support.The upper end of the rail supports advantageously has a triangular or trapezoidal or convex section to reduce the risk of accumulation of sand or snow on the supports, close to the rails. In this case, the jacket wife at its upper part a shape and section adapted to the shape of the support.
Selon une forme d'exécution avantageuse de l'invention, et comme on peut le voir notamment dans les
Les deux supports de rail 3, 5 forment une gorgecontinue dont la profondeur sera définie suivant les critères d'ensablement ou d'enneigement locaux. En cas d'ensablement ou d'enneigement, celle-ci peut être nettoyée ou vidée assez facilement, notamment à l'aide d'un engin de manutention, comme par exemple une pelleteuse qui circule sur la voie.The two rail supports 3, 5 form a gorgecontinue whose depth will be defined according to local sand or snow conditions. In case of silting or snow, it can be cleaned or emptied quite easily, especially with a handling machine, such as an excavator that travels on the track.
L'homme de l'art appréciera que diverses variantes sont possibles sans pour autant s'écarter des caractéristiques essentielles de l'invention.Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various alternatives are possible without departing from the essential features of the invention.
