Description

Vorrichtung zur Befestigung von Schienenklemmen  Device for fastening rail clamps
[01] Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Befestigung von Schienenklemmen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs. [01] The invention relates to a device for fastening rail clamps according to the preamble of the claim.
[02] Aus der US 4,479,440 ist eine derartige Vorrichtung zum Installieren von sogenannten e-Clips bekannt, die vom unteren Ende eines Werkzeughebels in Schienenlängsrichtung in eine auf der Schwelle vorgesehene Halterung eingeschoben werden. Gemäß US 4, 319,392 ist es weiters bekannt, Schienenklemmen mittels eines Schwenkhebels aus ihrer Position zum Fixieren der Schiene an der Schwelle zu entfernen.  From US 4,479,440 such a device for installing so-called e-clips is known, which are inserted from the lower end of a tool lever in the rail longitudinal direction in a provided on the threshold bracket. According to US 4,319,392 it is further known to remove rail clamps by means of a pivoting lever from its position for fixing the rail at the threshold.
[03] In EP 1 611 287 B1 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Montage von Schienenklemmen geoffenbart, bei der jeder verschwenkbare Werkzeughebel zwei Anpressorgane aufweist, die an den beiden Enden einer quer zur Schienenlängsrichtung verlaufenden Welle einander entgegengesetzt gelagert sind und so abwechselnd in die jeweilige Arbeitsposition zum Ein- oder Ausschieben der Schienenklemme gedreht werden können.  EP 1 611 287 B1 discloses a device for mounting rail clamps, in which each pivotable tool lever has two contact elements, which are mounted opposite one another at the two ends of a shaft extending transversely to the rail longitudinal direction and thus alternately into the respective working position for Pushing in or pushing out of the rail clamp can be turned.
[04] Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun in der Schaffung einer Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art, die eine bessere Einstellung der Arbeitspositionen des Anpressorgans ermöglicht.  The object of the present invention is now to provide a device of the type mentioned, which allows a better adjustment of the working positions of the pressing member.
[05] Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit einer Vorrichtung der gattungsgemäßen Art durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs angeführten Merkmale gelöst. [06] Eine mit diesen Merkmalen ausgestattete Vorrichtung kann nun sehr rasch und problemlos von einer Position zum Einschieben der Schienenklemmen in eine zum Ausschieben der Klemmen erforderliche Position (und umgekehrt) umgestellt werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung ermöglicht eine einfache und robuste Konstruktion mit geringer Schadensanfälligkeit und hoher Präzision sowie leichter Bedienbarkeit. Der dritte Anschlag verhindert dabei zuverlässig ein Überschiessen der Schwenkbewegung des Werkzeughebels beim Ausbauen der Schienenklemmen und eine dadurch möglicherweise drohende Beschädigung der Vorrichtung oder des Gleises. [05] This object is achieved with a device of the generic type by the features cited in the characterizing part of claim. [06] A device equipped with these features can now be converted very quickly and easily from a position for inserting the rail clamps into a position required for pushing out the clamps (and vice versa). The inventive construction allows a simple and robust construction with low susceptibility to damage and high precision and ease of use. The third stop reliably prevents overshooting the pivoting movement of the tool lever when removing the rail clamps and thus possibly threatening damage to the device or the track.
[07] Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der Zeichnungsbeschreibung.  [07] Further advantages of the invention will become apparent from the description of the drawings.
[08] Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher beschrieben. Es zeigen: Fig. 1 eine Seitenansicht einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung zur Befestigung - von Schienenklemmen, und Fig. 2 und 3 jeweils eine Detailansicht eines Anpressorgans.  [08] In the following the invention will be described in more detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing. 1 shows a side view of a device according to the invention for fastening - of rail clamps, and - FIGS. 2 and 3 each show a detail view of a contact pressure element.
[09] In Fig. 1 ist eine Gleisbearbeitungsmaschine 1 dargestellt, die über ein Schienenfahrwerk 2 auf einem - aus Schienen 3 und Schwellen 4 gebildeten - Gleis 5 verfahrbar ist. Ein Handgriff 6 dient zum händischen Verschieben der mit einer Energiequelle 7 ausgestatteten Maschine 1 , die des Weiteren eine Vorrichtung 8 zur Befestigung (bzw. wahlweise zum Lösen) von Schienenklemmen 9 auf (bzw. von) einer mit der Schwelle 4 verbundenen Klemmenhalterung 10 aufweist. [01] In FIG. 1, a track processing machine 1 is shown, which can be moved via a rail chassis 2 on a track 5 formed by rails 3 and sleepers 4. A handle 6 is used for manually moving the equipped with a power source 7 machine 1, which further comprises a device 8 for attachment (or optionally for loosening) of rail clamps 9 on (or from) a terminal holder 10 connected to the threshold 4.
[10] Die Vorrichtung 8 besteht im Wesentlichen aus zwei vertikalen Werkzeughebeln 11 , die auf einer gemeinsamen, in Gleisquerrichtung verlaufenden Schwenkachse 12 rotierbar gelagert und um diese jeweils anhand eines eigenen Beistellzylinders 13 in Schienenlängsrichtung bewegbar sind. Die Beistellbewegung der beiden - im Arbeitseinsatz beidseits der Schiene 3 angeordneten - Werkzeughebel 1 1 erfolgt dabei gegenläufig. The device 8 consists essentially of two vertical tool levers 11, which are rotatably mounted on a common, extending in the transverse direction of the track pivot axis 12 and these are each movable on the basis of a separate Beistellzylinders 13 in the rail longitudinal direction. The Beistellbewegung the two - in labor input on both sides of the rail 3 arranged - tool lever 1 1 takes place in opposite directions.
[11] Wie in den Fig. 2 und 3 nun deutlicher zu sehen, ist am unteren Ende 14 der Werkzeughebel 11 jeweils ein Anpressorgan 15 angeordnet, das zur Anlage an eine Schienenklemme 9 vorgesehen ist und zu deren Einschieben (Fig. 2) bzw. Ausschieben (Fig. 3) in die bzw. aus der Klemmenhalterung 10 dient. Zu diesem Zweck weist das Anpressorgan 15 einen ersten Anschlag 16 zum Einschieben sowie einen zweiten Anschlag 17 zum Ausschieben der Schienenklemme 9 auf. Um einen abwechselnden Einsatz der Anschläge 16, 17 wahlweise zu ermöglichen, ist das Anpressorgan 15 um eine parallel zur Schwenkachse 12 der Werkzeughebel 11 verlaufende Drehachse 18 drehbar ausgebildet. Zur Fixierung des Anpressorgans 15 in der jeweiligen Arbeitsposition ist eine Klemmschraube 19 vorgesehen. [12] Weiters weist das Anpressorgan 15 noch einen dritten Anschlag 20 auf, der dem zweiten Anschlag 17 - in der Arbeitsposition zum Ausschieben der Schienenklemme 9 - nachgeordnet ist und zur Anlage an die Klemmenhalterung 10 dient, sobald die Schienenklemme 9 ganz aus der Klemmenhalterung 10 gelöst ist. Damit wird verhindert, dass die Ausschiebebewegung ungehindert zu weit fortgesetzt wird und dadurch etwa Beschädigungen verursacht werden. [2] As can be seen more clearly in FIGS. 2 and 3, at the lower end 14 of the tool lever 11 there is arranged in each case a pressure element 15 which is provided for abutment against a rail clamp 9 and for the insertion thereof (FIG. Push (Fig. 3) into or out of the terminal holder 10 is used. For this purpose, the pressing member 15 has a first stop 16 for insertion and a second stop 17 for pushing out the rail clamp 9. In order to allow an alternative use of the stops 16, 17 optionally, the pressing member 15 is rotatable about a parallel to the pivot axis 12 of the tool lever 11 extending axis of rotation 18 is formed. For fixing the pressing member 15 in the respective working position, a clamping screw 19 is provided. Furthermore, the pressing member 15 still has a third stopper 20, which is the second stop 17 - in the working position for pushing out the rail clamp 9 - downstream and serves to rest on the terminal holder 10, as soon as the rail clamp 9 completely out of the terminal holder 10th is solved. This prevents the pushing-out movement from continuing unchecked too far, causing damage, for example.
