Definitions
- the invention relates to a coupling head for detachable vehicles, in particular rail-bound vehicles with a coupling head housing and with a coupling head housing the end face end plate, wherein the coupling head housing and end plate are releasably connected together.
- Coupling head housing for detachable vehicles are in the professional and
- Patent literature described several times and therefore in different
- the document DE 1 1 245 35 B describes, for example, a housing of an automatically rigid central buffer coupling, consisting of a face plate with a pyramidal projection or a corresponding recess of a buffer surface on an end piece for connecting the housing with a
- the coupling head housing is assembled in cell construction of individual moldings.
- the housing body consists of four moldings, namely of two identical middle parts, which constitute the upper and lower wall of the housing body, and two same side parts, wherein the middle parts and the side parts are respectively mirror images.
- the middle parts are designed as Schmiedepressmaschine and the side panels as Blechpressmaschine.
- EP 1 805 073 B1 discloses a central buffer coupling of modular construction. This consists of a coupling head for detachable vehicles with a coupling head housing. At the coupling head housing end face then a front plate is arranged. It is possible to mount different end plates in turn different coupling heads.
- the coupling head housing is generally funnel-shaped and has a connection region, for example an end piece, on the side opposite the end plate, which is suitable for receiving a coupling rod.
- the coupling rod is in turn arranged in height and side displaceable or pivotable on the vehicle, so that the funnel-shaped configuration can accommodate the counterpart with appropriate tolerances.
- the coupling head housing has a first connection region for fixing the end plate and a second connection region, in particular a coupling element for receiving the coupling rod.
- the coupling head housing is a casting on which the coupling members or coupling mechanism are arranged.
- Quality control measures necessary after production For example, a corresponding crack test using fluorescent substances or
- Coupling head housing made of cast material is long and also requires additional appropriate rework. In particular, the reworking must be done on the coupling elements, namely on the one hand to the front and on the other hand but also to the side of the coupling rod. Due to the fact that the coupling head housing is designed so that it must absorb both compressive and tensile forces, which are in the range of 1000 to 1500 kN, the corresponding dimensions of the wall thicknesses but also the geometry must be explicitly provided. The coupling head housing is exposed to both compressive and tensile forces.
- the object of the invention is to form a coupling head housing for a central buffer coupling such that in addition to the reduction of
- the coupling head housing viewed in the longitudinal direction at the respective oppositely disposed end portions terminal areas, namely a first connection area for making the connection with a face plate and another connection area for connection to a coupling rod, the coupling head housing in one piece as a forging is designed and the first connection area on the coupling head housing of at least two mutually separated contact surfaces for at least indirectly Support is formed on partial surfaces of the end plate and the coupling head housing in the first connection region with the end plate via connections, preferably non-positive connections is connected.
- the first connection region of at least four finger-like or pairwise fork-like formed on the coupling head housing and the contact surfaces having projections is formed.
- the basic idea of the invention is to make a coupling head housing simpler, such that it is easier to install on the one hand, but on the other hand, it is easier to produce.
- This is achieved in that the coupling head housing is constructed differently constructive in contrast to the prior art.
- this finger-like has at least two mutually separate, preferably at least four, contact surfaces which can be detachably connected to the end plate via bolt connections.
- defined and especially localized force introduction areas are given, which allow a locally limited introduction of force into the coupling head housing. Since the coupling head housing is a forging component, the lines of force within the coupling head housing are homogeneous and can thus be optimally discharged via the coupling head housing in the direction of the coupling rod.
- the production time of a forging component is shorter. This is due to the fact that expensive quality assurance processes, such as X-ray, void test or the like are eliminated.
- the postprocessing processes are shorter, especially in the areas in which further elements are coupled. An even shorter production time is achieved in that, in particular for connection to the end plate no flat concerns of the coupling head housing is provided, but a , ,
- the coupling elements are arranged such that their forces are derived directly at the tail to the coupling rod out the load paths and directions in the coupling head housing are separated. This means that corresponding pressure forces are derived via the support points or support areas which are in contact with the end plate, whereas the tensile forces are conducted directly via the coupling members and the coupling element. Due to this distribution of forces, the coupling head housing can also be different and simpler
- the contact surfaces of the first connection region are arranged on both sides of a plane whose position can be described by a longitudinal axis extending in the longitudinal direction of the coupling head and a vertical to the latter.
- the arrangement is symmetrical. This training allows easy production.
- connection between coupling head housing and face plate takes place either directly or with the interposition of compensation elements.
- the coupling head housing is supported via the compensating elements on the end plate.
- the compensating elements may be individual elements or a plate-like element which is adapted to the contour of the end plate on one end face.
- the single non-positive connection is designed as a bolt connection or screw connection.
- At least one centering device is provided for centering the coupling head housing and optionally the front plate and / or the at least one compensating element. This considerably simplifies the assignment and installation.
- the at least one centering device comprises pin-like elements, which are arranged engaging in the opposing components - coupling head and compensating element and / or face plate.
- the single pin-like element can be integrally formed with one of the oppositely arranged components or be connected to this.
- the coupling head housing and the face plate designed as a forging component.
- the second connection region on the side opposite the end plate on the Kupplungskopfgehause is preferably formed by an integrally formed with the coupling head housing end piece which can be coupled with a coupling rod.
- Coupling members are accommodated in the coupling head housing, which are preferably formed at least in part in one piece with the coupling head housing. - -
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the inventive design of the coupling head of a central buffer coupling in
- FIG. 2 shows a mounted coupling head.
- a coupling head 1 which is part of a central buffer coupling for vehicles, in particular rail vehicles, shown in exploded view.
- the coupling head 1 consists of a coupling head housing 2 and an end face plate 3 which can be connected to the coupling head housing 2.
- an compensating element for compensating coupling clearance and manufacturing tolerances can be provided, but not shown here.
- the compensating element can be designed as a spacer plate.
- the coupling head housing 2 and the end plate 3 are connected to each other via at least one frictionally releasable connection, which are preferably designed as bolt connections 5.
- the bolt connections 5 provide that screws 6 are inserted, which are inserted through bores 7, which are provided on site at the coupling head housing 2, and are provided in either a spacer plate, not shown here, or at least in the end plate 3
- connection elements or means takes place within the first connection region 13.
- centering pins 8 are provided,
- Coupling head housing 2 are arranged. When merging the
- the centering pins 8 can be plugged into one of the components - coupling head housing 2 or face plate 3.
- the coupling head housing 2 is designed in such a way that it preferably has four contact surfaces 9 on its side facing the end plate 3 (three of which can be seen in the drawings).
- the contact surfaces 9 are provided such that they are supported only on a part of the end plate 3, whereas the remaining part is provided with a recess 10.
- the individual contact surfaces 9 are thus carried out separately from each other and executed in the connection plane free of connection to each other.
- This means that the coupling head housing 2 is finger-like supported on four areas on the front plate 3 and is connected there accordingly.
- the remaining recesses are preferably designed semicircular.
- the necessary for the coupling process coupling members 12 are disposed within the coupling head housing 2.
- the coupling element 12 provided here is arranged directly in the region of the second connection region 11, so that the tensile force generated by the coupling element 12 can act directly on the connection region 11 and thus on the coupling rod.
- the coupling head housing 2 itself is by the tensile load on the
- Coupling member 12 is not or only slightly charged.
- the coupling head housing 2 is half-shell-like with four open-edged recesses 10, in particular openings, which form the four projections provided for forming the connection region 13.
- the connecting region 13 forming projections are thus forked or - -
- the projections converge in the direction of the second connection region 11 or are coupled to one another in the region of the second connection region.
- the contact surfaces 9 are thus separated from each other or arranged spatially separated in the connection plane.
- the arrangement of the contact surfaces takes place outside the range of introduction of the transmitted via the coupling members forces.
- the contact surfaces 9 are preferably arranged on both sides of the coupling members 12.
- the arrangement is based on a theoretical longitudinal axis L, which coincides with the coupling axis, preferably symmetrically with respect to a plane which is formed by the coupling longitudinal axis and a perpendicular thereto.
- the forces introduced via the contact surfaces are entered on the coupling head housing 2 into the second connection region 11.
- Face plate 3 takes place on part surfaces 14, which are preferably also formed as separate, ie spatially separated from each other arranged surfaces on the face plate 3.
- the coupling members 12 may be integrally formed with the coupling head housing 2 or connected thereto.
