Comme le montre notamment la figure 4, l'engin mobile 5 est suspendu au dispositif monorail 9 par deux chariots 17a, 17b pourvus chacun sur chaque côté longitudinal d'une pluralité de roues motorisées qui sont adaptées pour être en contact roulant sur des chemins de roulement 19 des monorails 10. A cette fin, comme le montre la figure 6, chaque monorail est formé par un profilé en forme d'un U dont les branches 20 s'étendent verticalement vers le bas, à partir de la base 21 et porte chacune à son extrémité libre une semelle de roulement horizontale dont la partie intérieure constitue le chemin de roulement 19 des roues des chariots 17a, 17b. Ces chariots sont séparés l'un de l'autre dans la direction axiale des monorails, d'une distance prédéterminée et sont disposés et configurés de façon à assurer le franchissement aisé des espacements entre les deux monorails 10 de deux wagons adjacents.  As shown in particular in Figure 4, the mobile machine 5 is suspended from the monorail device 9 by two carriages 17a, 17b each provided on each longitudinal side of a plurality of motorized wheels which are adapted to be in rolling contact on paths. bearing 19 of the monorails 10. For this purpose, as shown in Figure 6, each monorail is formed by a U-shaped section whose branches 20 extend vertically downwards, from the base 21 and door each at its free end a horizontal running sole whose inner portion is the raceway 19 of the wheels of the carriages 17a, 17b. These carriages are separated from one another in the axial direction of the monorails by a predetermined distance and are arranged and configured so as to ensure easy crossing of the spacings between the two monorails 10 of two adjacent wagons.
L'engin mobile comprend sous les chariots une nacelle comportant une cabine 25 et une partie 26 de logement d'un groupe d'alimentation en énergie, et de deux dispositifs 27 de préhension des rails. Chaque dispositif 27 comprend essentiellement un bras 29 qui est articulé par une extrémité en 30 au corps de l'ensemble mobile et porte à son extrémité libre les pinces 32 de préhension des rails 14.  The mobile machine comprises under the carriages a nacelle comprising a cabin 25 and a housing portion 26 of a power supply group, and two devices 27 for gripping the rails. Each device 27 essentially comprises an arm 29 which is articulated by an end 30 to the body of the moving assembly and carries at its free end the clamps 32 for gripping the rails 14.
Les bras 29 sont commandés en pivotement par des vérins 31 interposés entre la face frontale de l'ensemble mobile et un endroit situé par exemple dans la partie centrale du bras. Les pinces 32 sont commandées en pivotement par des vérins appropriés 33 disposés entre le bras correspondant 29 et la pince.  The arms 29 are pivotally controlled by cylinders 31 interposed between the front face of the movable assembly and a location located for example in the central part of the arm. The clamps 32 are pivotally controlled by appropriate jacks 33 arranged between the corresponding arm 29 and the clamp.
Les chariots sont montés sur la cabine, pivotant autour d'un axe vertical.  The trolleys are mounted on the cab, pivoting about a vertical axis.
Comme le montre la figure 7, le nombre et la disposition des roues 18 des chariots 17a, 17b est choisi de façon qu'au moment du franchissement de l'espacement entre les extrémités des deux monorails 10 adjacents, les chariots sont en appui par leurs roues sur les chemins de roulement 19 des deux portions d'extrémité des monorails adj acents . As shown in FIG. 7, the number and arrangement of the wheels 18 of the carriages 17a, 17b is chosen so that when crossing the spacing between the ends of the two monorails 10 adjacent, the carriages are supported by their wheels on the raceways 19 of the two end portions of the monorails adj acents.
Les figures 1 et 5 montrent encore que le train selon l'invention comprend une remorque 34 à goulottes 35 avec sa barre d'attelage 37, qui sert à guider et soutenir les rails 14 lors du chargement et déchargement du wagon. La remorque est destinée à être placée sur la voie ferrée de circulation du train en amont du premier wagon et est stockée sur celui-ci lors du transport des rails posés sur les wagons, comme le montre la figure 6 sur laquelle on voit au premier plan la remorque goulotte avec sa barre d'attelage.  Figures 1 and 5 show further that the train according to the invention comprises a trailer 34 troughs 35 with its drawbar 37, which serves to guide and support the rails 14 during the loading and unloading of the wagon. The trailer is intended to be placed on the railway track of the train upstream of the first car and is stored thereon during the transport of the rails placed on the cars, as shown in Figure 6 which is seen in the foreground the chute trailer with its drawbar.
Les wagons 2 sont équipés de moyens de rangement en plusieurs couches des rails sur leur plateforme 7. La référence 42 indique un dispositif de racks de stockage ou rangement qui comprend, dans l'exemple représenté, trois peignes de rack de rangement 43 à 45, qui sont superposés dans la direction verticale pour former trois lits de stockage de rails dans trois niveaux. Les racks de rangement s'étendent, dans leur position de travail, c'est-à-dire de rangement de rails, perpendiculairement sur leur wagon. Le rack inférieur 43 est disposé, de façon permanente, sur son wagon tandis que les deux peignes supérieurs 44 et 45 sont escamotables par pivotement autour d'un axe vertical situé au niveau d'un portique 12 d'une paire de portiques, entre une position de repos dans laquelle le rack s'étend entre les deux portiques, c'est-à-dire dans la direction longitudinale du wagon, au bord de celui-ci et une position de travail, perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal de wagon.  The wagons 2 are equipped with storage means in several layers of the rails on their platform 7. The reference 42 indicates a storage rack device or storage which comprises, in the example shown, three storage rack combs 43 to 45, which are superimposed in the vertical direction to form three rail storage beds in three levels. The storage racks extend, in their working position, that is to say, storage rails, perpendicular to their wagon. The lower rack 43 is permanently disposed on its wagon while the two upper combs 44 and 45 are pivotally retractable about a vertical axis located at a gantry 12 of a pair of gantries, between a rest position in which the rack extends between the two gantries, that is to say in the longitudinal direction of the wagon, the edge thereof and a working position, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of wagon.
Comme on le voit sur la figure 1, le train de wagons de stockage peut être équipé d'un portillon 47 de sécurité, qui permet de verrouiller les rails stockés sur des dispositifs de racks de stockage ou de rangement lors d'un déplacement de transport du train. Le portillon de sécurité est déplaçable par pivotement par des vérins 49 entre une position abaissée (non représentée), et une position entièrement relevée pour faire office de butoir de sécurité. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the train of storage cars can be equipped with a safety gate 47, which makes it possible to lock the rails stored on storage or storage racks devices. a transport movement of the train. The security gate is pivotally movable by jacks 49 between a lowered position (not shown), and a fully raised position to act as a safety stop.
On constate encore sur le premier wagon une table élévatrice 48 destinée à aider au rangement des rails dans le deuxième et troisième niveau des racks de stockage. Cette table sert aussi à soulager les efforts des pinces de préhension 32 des rails lors de l'opération de chargement ou déchargement des rails disposés en couches successives, par exemple avec dix rails par couche .  There is still on the first car a lift table 48 to help the storage of rails in the second and third level of storage racks. This table also serves to relieve the efforts of grippers 32 of the rails during the operation of loading or unloading rails arranged in successive layers, for example with ten rails per layer.
Concernant le fonctionnement du train de transport, de chargement et de déchargement selon l'invention qui vient d'être décrit et est représenté aux figures seulement à titre d'exemple, non exclusif, il ressort déjà de la description qui vient d'être faite. Pour un chargement de longs rails soudés, la remorque à goulotte 34 est descendue du premier wagon sur la voie ferrée et des dispositifs de préhension 27 sont déployés, comme le montre les figures 1 et 5, l'ensemble mobile 25 se trouvant dans sa position à l'extrémité amont du premier wagon. Après avoir saisi les rails à stocker, l'ensemble mobile se déplace, à l'aide de ces chariots 17a, 17b, le long des monorails 10 des wagons 2 pour tirer les rails sur les wagons vers leur position de stockage. Pendant ce déplacement des rails, ceux-ci sont supportés par des racks de stockage 43 à 45 et la table élévatrice 48. Comme il a été écrit plus haut, lors du franchissement de l'écartement des extrémités des deux rails adjacentes, les chariots sont parfaitement supportés sur les portions d'extrémité des deux rails.  Regarding the operation of the transport, loading and unloading train according to the invention which has just been described and is represented in the figures only by way of example, non-exclusive, it is already apparent from the description which has just been made . For a loading of long welded rails, the chute trailer 34 is lowered from the first car on the railway and gripping devices 27 are deployed, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the moving assembly 25 being in its position. at the upstream end of the first car. After having grasped the rails to be stored, the moving assembly moves, using these carriages 17a, 17b, along the monorails 10 of the wagons 2 to pull the rails on the wagons to their storage position. During this movement of the rails, these are supported by storage racks 43 to 45 and the lifting table 48. As it was written above, when crossing the spacing of the ends of the two adjacent rails, the carriages are perfectly supported on the end portions of the two rails.
On comprend de la description de l'invention, que celle-ci offre plus de sécurité d'utilisation par rapport au procédé de chargement classiques qui utilisent un chemin de roulement de l'ensemble mobile, qui est constitué de deux rails de guidage situés aux côtés des plateformes dont l'espace de rangement est alors réduit. It will be understood from the description of the invention that it offers greater safety of use compared with the conventional loading method which uses a running track of the moving assembly, which is consists of two guide rails located at the sides of the platforms, the storage space is then reduced.
L'invention composée d'un système de monorails permet de libérer tout l'espace de la plateforme des wagons. Aucune roue motorisée circulant de part et d'autre du wagon ne peut venir mettre en danger le personnel de chantiers environnants. Ainsi, la nouvelle conception de l'invention permet d'offrir la plus grande sécurité dans le mode opératoire et de l'organisation du travail de chargement et de déchargement des longs rails soudés. Le monorail est lui-même suspendu à des portiques solidaires des plateformes des wagons de transport et les portiques de maintien des monorails suspendus garantissent le maintien latéral des longs rails soudés dans la limite de transport du gabarit de circulation de la voie. Ainsi, l'invention permet de sécuriser le mode de chargement et de déchargement de longs rails soudés.  The invention composed of a system of monorails frees up all the space of the wagon platform. No motorized wheel circulating on either side of the wagon can come endanger the personnel of the surrounding yards. Thus, the new design of the invention makes it possible to offer the greatest safety in the operating mode and the organization of the work of loading and unloading the long welded rails. The monorail is itself suspended from gantries integral with the platforms of the transport wagons and the gantries to hold the suspended monorails guarantee the lateral maintenance of the long rails welded in the transport limit of the gauge of circulation of the way. Thus, the invention makes it possible to secure the mode of loading and unloading of long welded rails.
Les figures 8 à 14 montrent un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention, dont l'avantage réside dans le fait que le dispositif monorail 9 n'est plus supporté par des portiques, mais par des montants de support 51 se trouvant au milieu des plateformes des wagons de façon que les bords longitudinaux des wagons soient dégagés. Cette configuration des wagons autorise également le chargement latéral des rails par des portiques appropriés .  FIGS. 8 to 14 show a second embodiment of the invention, the advantage of which lies in the fact that the monorail device 9 is no longer supported by gantries, but by support posts 51 located in the middle of the wagon platforms so that the longitudinal edges of the wagons are clear. This configuration of the wagons also allows lateral loading of the rails by appropriate gantries.
Dans ce mode de réalisation, l'engin mobile noté 50 ne se déplace plus sous les monorails des wagons, mais au-dessus de ceux-ci. Concernant les dispositifs de racks de stockage ou de rangement des rails selon la figure 14, au moins les deux racks supérieurs notés maintenant 52, 53 sont maintenant montés rotatifs autour d'une colonne centrale 54, entre une position de repos dans laquelle les racks d'une longueur correspondant à la largeur d'un wagon s'étendent dans la direction longitudinale du wagon, comme cela est indiqué en traits interrompus pour le rack 52, en dessous du monorail et dans leur position de travail, perpendiculairement à la direction longitudinale du wagon. In this embodiment, the mobile machine rated 50 no longer moves under the monorails of the cars, but above them. Regarding the rack storage devices or storage of the rails according to Figure 14, at least the two upper racks noted now 52, 53 are now rotatably mounted around a central column 54, between a rest position in which the racks d a length corresponding to the width of a wagon extends in the longitudinal direction of the wagon, as indicated in phantom for the rack 52, below the monorail and in their position working perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the wagon.
Concernant le dispositif monorail 9 qui constitue le chemin de roulement de l'engin mobile 50, il est formé, comme dans le premier mode de réalisation, par l'alignement des monorails individuels des wagons. Comme le montre notamment la figure 13, chaque monorail est formé par une poutre de support transversal 60 et deux rails à champignons parallèles 61 qui sont fixés sur la face supérieure horizontale de la poutre. Celle-ci est supportée par les montants de support verticaux 51 disposés à une distance prédéterminée les uns des autres, dans la direction longitudinale du wagon, au niveau de la ligne longitudinale centrale.  Regarding the monorail device 9 which constitutes the runway of the mobile machine 50, it is formed, as in the first embodiment, by the alignment of the individual monorails of the cars. As shown in particular in Figure 13, each monorail is formed by a transverse support beam 60 and two parallel mushroom rails 61 which are fixed on the horizontal upper face of the beam. This is supported by the vertical support posts 51 arranged at a predetermined distance from each other, in the longitudinal direction of the wagon, at the central longitudinal line.
Concernant l'engin mobile 50, il comporte un châssis à l'extrémité avant duquel sont articulés les deux dispositifs de préhension des rails qui sont identifiés, comme dans le premier mode de réalisation, par la référence 27 et dont la configuration pourrait être la même que dans ce premier mode de réalisation.  Concerning the mobile machine 50, it comprises a frame at the front end of which are articulated the two rail gripping devices which are identified, as in the first embodiment, by the reference 27 and whose configuration could be the same. that in this first embodiment.
Le châssis de l'engin 50 porte une cabine de commande 63 pour deux opérateurs, et, dans la partie arrière, un compartiment de logement d'un groupe électrogène 64. Une échelle 65 d'accès à la cabine est prévue sur chaque côté de la cabine. Celle-ci comprend deux postes de conduite pour piloter individuellement chaque dispositif de préhension 27.  The chassis of the machine 50 carries a control cabin 63 for two operators, and in the rear part, a housing compartment of a generator set 64. A ladder 65 for access to the cabin is provided on each side of the engine. the cabin. This comprises two driving stations for individually controlling each gripping device 27.
La translation, c'est-à-dire la circulation de l'engin le long du dispositif monorail sur toute la longueur du train sur le chemin de roulement, est assurée par un opérateur. Les sièges des opérateurs sont surélevés pour garantir une parfaite visibilité lors du travail et du déplacement de l'engin. Les commandes des différentes fonctions de l'engin sont incluses dans les accoudoirs du siège sous forme de manipulateurs à commande électrique. De larges surfaces vitrées donnent une parfaite vision des opérations de préhension. Des caméras de vision arrière (non représenté) permettent la circulation de l'engin dans les deux sens en toute sécurité . The translation, that is to say the movement of the machine along the monorail device over the entire length of the train on the raceway, is provided by an operator. The operator's seats are elevated to ensure perfect visibility when working and moving the machine. The controls of the various functions of the machine are included in the armrests of the seat in the form of electrically operated manipulators. Large glazed surfaces provide a perfect view of the gripping operations. of the rear vision cameras (not shown) allow the vehicle to circulate in both directions safely.
Le système de translation enfermé dans un boîtier 67 est équipé de deux essieux 69 chacun porteur de deux galets de roulement 70 dont chacun roule sur un rail à champignon 61 (figures 12,13).  The translation system enclosed in a housing 67 is equipped with two axles 69 each carrying two rollers 70 each of which rolls on a rail 61 mushroom (Figures 12,13).
La motorisation de chaque essieu comporte deux moteurs hydrauliques non représentés, chacun destiné à entraîner en rotation, par l'intermédiaire d'une chaîne 73, un pignon 74 disposée à une extrémité de l'essieu. L'essieu arrière est articulé en son centre afin de garantir le franchissement des gauches dans le chemin de roulement .  The drive of each axle comprises two unrepresented hydraulic motors, each intended to drive in rotation, via a chain 73, a pinion 74 disposed at one end of the axle. The rear axle is articulated at its center to ensure the crossing of the left in the raceway.
Le système de translation comporte un dispositif de sécurisation du guidage de l'engin mobile qui comporte quatre galets 75 à axe vertical pourvus chacun d'un boudin 76, comme le montre notamment la figure 13, permettant un guidage latéral de l'engin par rapport au flanc du rail 61. Le boudin 76 de chaque galet 75 est situé sous un des deux côtés du champignon 77 du rail, de préférence du côté extérieur, conformément à la figure 13, ce qui permet d'éviter un déraillement intempestif de l'engin même en cas de manutention de charges déportées. Comme il ressort des figures, à chaque essieu 69 sont associés deux galets 75, situés à proximité des galets de roulement 70 portés par l'essieu.  The translation system comprises a device for securing the guidance of the mobile machine which comprises four rollers 75 with a vertical axis each provided with a flange 76, as shown in particular in FIG. 13, allowing lateral guidance of the machine relative to at the flank of the rail 61. The flange 76 of each roller 75 is situated under one of the two sides of the head 77 of the rail, preferably on the outside, in accordance with FIG. 13, which makes it possible to avoid an unwanted derailment of the rail gear even when handling remote loads. As shown in the figures, each axle 69 is associated two rollers 75, located near the rollers 70 carried by the axle.
A titre d'exemple, pour donner une idée des dimensions des rails 61 et des galets 75, pour assurer le guidage de l'engin 50 sur les rails 61, dans le cadre de l'invention, on peut utiliser des rails 61 ayant une hauteur a de 172mm, une largeur b de 74mm, une largeur c de la partie intermédiaire entre le pied et le boudin de 16,5mm. Les galets 75 à axe vertical ont une partie de corps d'un diamètre d de 184mm tandis que le diamètre extérieur e d'un boudin 76 est de 224mm. La largeur f des pieds est de 150mm. Concernant l'écart g entre les deux rails parallèles 61, il pourrait être de 460mm. L'écart h des axes 79 des deux galets 75, dans la direction perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale d'un wagon, est de 720mm. Les axes sont maintenus dans l'élément horizontal 81 de support du châssis de l'engin mobile 50 se déplaçant sur les rails 61, l'invention prévoit des éléments 83 d'ancrage solides sur la poutre 60, qui viennent en prise sur les pieds des rails. By way of example, to give an idea of the dimensions of the rails 61 and the rollers 75, in order to guide the machine 50 on the rails 61, in the context of the invention, rails 61 having a height a of 172mm, a width b of 74mm, a width c of the intermediate part between the foot and the flange of 16,5mm. The rollers 75 with vertical axis have a body portion with a diameter d of 184 mm while the outer diameter e of a flange 76 is 224 mm. The width f of the feet is 150mm. Concerning the gap g between the two parallel rails 61, it could be 460mm. The distance h from the axes 79 of the two rollers 75, in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of a car, is 720 mm. The axes are held in the horizontal support element 81 of the frame of the mobile machine 50 moving on the rails 61, the invention provides solid anchoring elements 83 on the beam 60, which engage on the feet rails.
Bien entendu les dimensions qui viennent d'être données uniquement à titre d'exemple, peuvent être différentes, à condition que le dispositif de sécurisation garantit un guidage sûr de l'engin sur les rails 61.  Of course, the dimensions that have just been given by way of example may be different, provided that the securing device ensures safe guidance of the machine on the rails 61.
Le système de translation est complété par quatre freins à double sabot (non représentés) actionnés par ressort avec un rappel hydraulique qui assure le freinage et l' immobilisation de l'engin dans des rampes importantes. Pendant la translation de l'engin, l'opérateur maintient les freins ouverts par appui sur la pédale tandis que son relâchement provoque la fermeture du frein et donc la coupe de la translation.  The translation system is completed by four double - hung brakes (not shown) actuated by spring with a hydraulic return which ensures the braking and the immobilization of the machine in important ramps. During the translation of the machine, the operator holds the brakes open by pressing the pedal while its release causes the closing of the brake and thus the cutting of the translation.
Bien entendu la conception du train selon 1 ' invention et son système de chargement et de déchargement tel que représenté sur les figures n'ont été décrits qu' à titre d'exemple et de multiples modifications peuvent être apportées sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.  Of course, the design of the train according to the invention and its loading and unloading system as shown in the figures have only been described by way of example and many modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. invention.
