Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch device of the flat bed type for a switch system, with a base plate, a stock rail, a side rail and a sliding plate provided between the stock rail and the side rail for the switch of a switch rail, and a method for producing a switch device.
  • a tongue device of the type mentioned has been known from practice for a long time.
  • a special rail profile for example the special rail profile 75C1, whose old designation is BA75, is regularly used for the stock rail.
  • the special rail profile is processed to create the stock rail.
  • the leg of the groove is removed in the central area of the rail profile.
  • the sliding plate rests on one side on a shoulder of the auxiliary rail, while on the opposite side it rests on a shoulder on the rail web of the stock rail.
  • the known switch device is manufactured in such a way that first the stock rail with the sliding plate and the auxiliary rail are assembled using templates provided for this purpose. Then the welding takes place.
  • the known tongue device has a number of disadvantages.
  • the special rail profile required for the stock rail is comparatively expensive.
  • the special rail profile is only produced in one quality. If a different quality is required for specific applications, the well-known special rail profile cannot ultimately be used. As a rule, a stock rail is then made from a solid block of appropriate quality, which is also relatively expensive.
  • a switching device of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph in which a sliding plate is provided which extends at least over a substantial part of the length of the switching device, is a so-called flatbed switching device or a switching device of the flatbed type Tongue rail used, for example of the tongue profile type Fz 36.
  • the continuous sliding plate is supported on a projection of the special rail profile of the stock rail on one side and on a corresponding projection of the auxiliary rail.
  • the width of the switch device ie the space between the stock rail and the auxiliary rail, is comparatively small.
  • the gap from the sliding plate to the top of the tongue assembly is "flat", hence the name "flat bed”.
  • a switch device of the "deep bed” type differs from the flat bed type switch device.
  • a machined standard rail is generally used as the stock rail.
  • a larger and, in particular, higher tongue profile is used in the deep-bed switch mechanism, for example the 49E1A1 tongue profile.
  • the switch does not lie on a sliding plate, but rather on individual sliding blocks or blocks spaced apart from one another. The distance from the top of the slide chairs to the top of the switch device is significantly lower than that of the flatbed switch device.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a switch device, in particular of the flat-bed type, that is to say with a sliding plate, which is simple and inexpensive to produce.
  • the invention is based on a prior art flatbed switch device, which is characterized by a continuous sliding plate, in which the sliding plate rests on the side rail and on a projection of the special profile stock rail.
  • the implementation of the support blocks according to the invention provides a support option for the sliding plate, so that it is no longer necessary to support the sliding plate on the stock rail.
  • a support on the side rail can also be dispensed with.
  • a special rail profile is not required to manufacture the stock rail. Although such a profile can be used become.
  • the sliding plate is supported according to a different principle.
  • a very important advantage resulting from the invention is that the stock rail can be produced from a standard rail profile by machining. If the switch device is a grooved rail switch device, a standard grooved rail profile, in particular type 60R2, can be used. Such a standard rail profile is not only significantly cheaper than a special rail profile, it can also - unlike the special rail profile - be obtained in any quality.
  • the switch device In connection with the switch device according to the invention, it has been found that it makes sense to provide a plurality of support blocks distributed over the length of the switch device.
  • the exact number ultimately depends on the length of the tongue device.
  • the number of support blocks is between 5 and 12 per switch device.
  • the support blocks are usually equally spaced. Exceptions only arise if a different arrangement is to be chosen for structural reasons. This is the case, for example, when the sliding plate has to be divided, as is the case, for example, in the area of the drive of the tongue tip of the tongue rail.
  • the individual support blocks are relatively easy to assemble.
  • the support blocks extend at least substantially perpendicularly away from the auxiliary rail in the direction of the stock rail. Due to the changing distance between the auxiliary rail and the stock rail, the individual support blocks can have different dimensions. For example, cube-like shapes are also provided, as well as cuboid configurations. Viewed from above, the individual support blocks usually have a square to trapezoidal shape. The trapezoidal shape is due to the curved course of the stock rail relative to the auxiliary rail.
  • a through opening is provided between two adjacent support blocks.
  • a corresponding passage opening should be provided between all the support blocks.
  • This through-opening which preferably has a triangular or trapezoidal opening area when viewed from above, should preferably be designed in such a way that it runs at least essentially parallel to the respective component with its edge areas each facing a component. Furthermore, the majority of the area between two support blocks and the associated area between the auxiliary rail and the stock rail should be filled with the through opening. The reason for this is that the through-opening enables the areas of the aforementioned components, and in particular the stock rail, that face the through-opening to be welded very well. This is discussed in more detail below in connection with the production process.
  • each of the support blocks provided is welded at the respective end faces on one side to the auxiliary rail and on the other side to the stock rail.
  • the support block is attached exclusively via a welded connection.
  • the support block is also screwed to the stock rail and otherwise welded. This is also discussed in more detail in connection with the manufacturing process.
  • At least one screw opening which can preferably have a thread, is preferably provided on the end face of the support block facing the stock rail.
  • at least one through-opening is preferably provided in the rail web of the stock rail, which enables screwing to the stock rail.
  • this can also be a slot opening in order to compensate for any play that may have occurred.
  • the aforementioned screw connection serves in particular to precisely maintain the expansion dimensions of the tongue device according to the invention.
  • at least one filler piece is provided for arrangement between the end face on the stock rail side and the stock rail.
  • the stock rail foot preferably has at least one recess in the area of one of the associated support blocks, which can extend to the rail web.
  • the recess makes it possible to place the stock rail as a whole on the base plate and to push it up to the respective end faces of the support blocks. The stock rail is then screwed to the support blocks as described above.
  • a heating device to be provided on the auxiliary rail.
  • the heating device which is assigned a control device, if necessary with a temperature sensor, can ensure proper functioning of the tongue device according to the invention, especially in winter.
  • the heating device which is preferably integrated into the auxiliary rail, can ensure that icing of the switch device, which can lead to blocking of the switch rail of the switch device, is avoided.
  • the heating device assigned to the auxiliary rail can generate such thermal energy that the tongue rail is prevented from freezing to the sliding plate.
  • the assignment of the heating device to the auxiliary rail makes sense here, since the auxiliary rail preferably forms the support for the sliding plate, so that thermal energy emitted by the heating device is transferred from the auxiliary rail to the sliding plate by thermal conduction.
  • the heating device it is possible for the heating device to be controlled manually via appropriate switches.
  • a sensor device that is assigned to the heating device in addition to or as an alternative to the manual control of the heating device.
  • the sensor device preferably has at least one temperature sensor, which is used to measure the outside temperature and/or the temperature on the switch device, in particular on the sliding bed and/or the switch rail. If the temperature falls below a predetermined value, the heating device is put into operation or switched on. If, on the other hand, an upper limit temperature is reached, the heating device can be shut down or switched off, so that the energy consumption of the heating device can be kept as low as possible.
  • the heating device is preferably designed as an electric heater, as a gas heater or as a geothermal heater. With a heating device designed in this way, reliable heating of the tongue device can be guaranteed as a result.
  • the heating device has at least one heating pipe running along the auxiliary rail.
  • the corresponding heating medium can then be guided in this heating tube.
  • a corresponding resistance ladder is provided in the case of an electrical heater.
  • the heating tube is preferably made of steel, in particular stainless steel.
  • the heating tube preferably extends over the entire length of the auxiliary rail, but in particular at least over the length of the sliding plate. This ensures that the auxiliary rail and thus also the sliding plate is/are heated not only partially, but over their entire length.
  • a recess extending along the side rail is provided in the side rail, in which the heating tube is accommodated.
  • the depth of the recess is greater than or equal to the diameter of the heating tube.
  • the cross section of the recess is at least partially adapted to the shape of the heating tube, so that the heating tube arranged in the recess bears flat against the auxiliary rail at least partially. It is particularly preferred in this context if the recess is U-shaped at its bottom or base, with the diameter of the bottom or base corresponding at least essentially to the diameter of the heating pipe. Ultimately, this results in a comparatively large contact surface between the heating pipe and the auxiliary rail, which promotes the transfer of heat from the heating pipe to the auxiliary rail.
  • the recess in the auxiliary rail is provided on the underside and/or on the side of the auxiliary rail facing the stock rail. This configuration ensures that the heating pipe is arranged between the auxiliary rail or at least one leg of the auxiliary rail and the stock rail.
  • the heating device is not accessible from the outside, so that there is no risk of the heating pipe being damaged by external influences.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention also provides for the heating tube to rest on the base plate at least in certain areas.
  • the heating device can thus be used not only to deliver thermal energy to the auxiliary rail, but also to the base plate.
  • the heat energy given off to the base plate can also be transferred to the slide plate by heat conduction via the stock rail.
  • the heating tube is part of the assembly formed by the base plate, the support blocks of the auxiliary rail and the sliding plate. In this case, if support blocks are provided, the heating tube is arranged between the respective support blocks and the auxiliary rail.
  • the heating tube bears against the support blocks at least in some areas.
  • a part of the thermal energy of the heating device is then thermally conducted via the support blocks to the sliding plate, since the sliding plate ultimately rests not only on the auxiliary rail but also on the supporting blocks.
  • Process engineering is in the method according to the invention for the production of the tongue device provided according to claim 1 to provide the sliding plate between the stock rail and the auxiliary rail, wherein between the stock rail and the auxiliary rail the plurality of support blocks resting on the base plate and separate from the stock rail and the auxiliary rail are provided, the sliding plate extending over the plurality of support blocks extends and rests on the plurality of support blocks, the base plate, the support blocks, the auxiliary rail and the sliding plate being first welded together to form an assembly.
  • the invention also relates to an assembly of the aforementioned type for a tongue device.
  • the assembly according to the invention differs from the prior art in particular in that the assembly lacks a stock rail.
  • the assembly is an independent intermediate product that only becomes a point device after the stock rail is attached to the assembly.
  • This way of producing an assembly differs significantly from the known production of the switch device, in which, as described above, first the stock rail with the sliding plate and the auxiliary rail are welded together after assembly using appropriate templates, which usually causes distortion. In the case of the invention, the welding also causes a delay.
  • the welding group as an assembly has only one system-relevant component, namely the sliding plate. However, this can be straightened relatively easily on a press after it has cooled, so that the required evenness of the sliding plate can be restored.
  • the stock rail is preferably produced from a standard rail profile by machining.
  • the cost savings resulting from this and the possibility of being able to use different grades and shapes have already been described at the outset.
  • the stock rail is preferably welded to the base plate of the assembly after the aforementioned assembly has been produced and the sliding plate has been adjusted if necessary.
  • the welding preferably takes place in the prestressed state of the stock rail. Since in this case no templates are required for assembly, such prestressing can be carried out without further ado.
  • the stock rail is screwed to the individual support blocks provided. In order to maintain the necessary spread of the switch device, one or more filler pieces are inserted between the end face of the respective support block on the stock rail side and the stock rail or the rail web of the stock rail. After the stock rail has been precisely aligned relative to the auxiliary rail, the stock rail is then welded to the base plate, as mentioned above. The welding is thus preferably carried out in the state screwed to the support blocks.
  • the aforementioned through-openings between the individual support blocks play an important role.
  • the interior area of the individual components in particular the interior area of the stock rail, is accessible via the passage openings. Because of this access, the stock rail can be securely welded to the base plate on its side facing the auxiliary rail.
  • the switch device according to the invention results in a construction that ensures a significantly improved flatness of the sliding plate with very exact compliance with the spread dimensions between stock rail and auxiliary rail.
  • a very cost-effective construction results, since expensive special profiles are not required.
  • the switch device 1 is a grooved rail switch device that is provided for a switch system.
  • the switch device 1 has a base plate 2 , a stock rail 3 , an auxiliary rail 4 and a slide plate 5 provided between the stock rail 3 and the auxiliary rail 4 .

  • the support blocks 8 are designed as separate support blocks from the stock rail 3 and the auxiliary rail 4 .
  • the sliding plate 5 is only supported on the bearing blocks Bund of the side rail 4 (cf. 11 and 12 ). So there is an exclusive storage or arrangement of the sliding plate 5 on the support blocks 8 and the side rail 4 instead. There is no support on the stock rail 3
  • the upper side 9 of the base plate 2 is flat and that the height of the bearing blocks 8 resting on the base plate 2 is also constant, so that the sliding plate 5 laid on the bearing blocks 8 runs parallel to the upper side 9 of the base plate 2 .
  • the bearing blocks 8 and the sliding plate 5 extend in height over more than half the height of the stock rail 3 and the auxiliary rail 4, respectively, which is a characteristic of the point device of the flat bed type.
  • the distance from the top of the stock rail or from the top of the stock rail to the top of the sliding plate 5 is less than half the height of the stock rail 3.
  • the stock rail 3 is a standard rail profile of a standard grooved rail.
  • the shape of the stock rail was produced by machining the standard rail profile. Since any standard rail profile can be used, the stock rail 3 can have any offered shape and quality. The use of a special rail profile, such as the 75C1 profile, is not necessary with switch device 1.

  • eight support blocks 8 are provided.
  • Support blocks 8 shown in the right-hand area of the side rail 4 are at least essentially equally spaced. Only the three support blocks 8 shown on the left in the illustrated embodiment have a different spacing.
  • This deviating distance results from the fact that the sliding plate 5 is divided in two in the area of an opening 10 in the side rail 4 . Due to the fact that the sliding plate 5 consists of several parts, a corresponding support via at least two support blocks 8 is required for each area of the sliding plate 5 .
