Description

La présente invention concerne un support permettant de fixer une eurobalise sur une traverse.The present invention relates to a support for fixing a Eurobalise on a cross.

L'invention concerne également un système de fixation de l'eurobalise sur la traverse, comportant un tel support.The invention also relates to a system for fixing the eurobalise on the cross member, comprising such a support.

Une eurobalise est un équipement ferroviaire placé entre les deux fils de rails pour transmettre des informations aux véhicules ferroviaires circulant sur la voie. Selon leur type, les eurobalises transmettent une information invariable, par exemple une position, ou une information qui peut varier au cours du temps, par exemple l'état d'un feu de signalisation ou d'un poste d'aiguillage. La transmission est réalisée par un champ magnétique variable.A Eurobalise is a railway equipment placed between the two rails to transmit information to railway vehicles traveling on the track. Depending on their type, eurobalises transmit invariable information, for example a position, or information that may vary over time, for example the state of a traffic light or a switch station. The transmission is performed by a variable magnetic field.

Toutefois, il existe beaucoup de configurations de montage d'une eurobalise. Ces configurations dépendent notamment de la nature des traverses, de la hauteur de voie et de spécificités de l'eurobalise. Il existe donc un grand nombre de systèmes de fixation différents.However, there are many mounting configurations of a Eurobalise. These configurations depend in particular on the nature of the sleepers, the height of the track and the specificities of the Eurobalise. There are therefore a large number of different fastening systems.

Un but de l'invention est de résoudre tout ou partie des inconvénients ci-dessus, c'est-à-dire en particulier de simplifier les systèmes de fixation.An object of the invention is to solve all or part of the above disadvantages, that is to say in particular to simplify the fastening systems.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un support de fixation d'une eurobalise sur une traverse, le support ayant une forme gerbable, le support, et optionnellement un ou plusieurs autres supports structurellement identiques audit support et empilés sur ledit support, étant destiné(s) à être placé(s) entre l'eurobalise et la traverse selon une direction de fixation pour fixer l'eurobalise à une hauteur prédéterminée par rapport à la traverse, ledit support comportant une première face comportant des nervures de renfort et des logements définis latéralement au moins en partie par les nervures de renfort.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a support for fixing a eurobalise on a cross member, the support having a stackable shape, the support, and optionally one or more other supports structurally identical to said support and stacked on said support, being intended to be placed between the eurobalise and the crossbar in a direction of attachment to fix the eurobalise to a predetermined height relative to the crossbar, said support having a first face comprising reinforcing ribs and housing defined laterally at least in part by the reinforcing ribs.

L'invention a également pour objet un système de fixation d'une eurobalise sur une traverse, comportant au moins deux supports tels que décrits ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a system for fixing a eurobalise on a cross member, comprising at least two supports as described above.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation, le système comprend l'une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, prise(s) isolément ou selon toutes les combinaisons techniquement possibles :

  • the system further comprises at least two fasteners adapted to respectively fix the two supports on the crosspiece.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en se référant aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue, en coupe selon un plan vertical parallèle à une traverse, d'un système de fixation selon l'invention adapté pour fixer une eurobalise sur la traverse,
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective de la première face d'un des supports de fixation présent dans le système de fixation représenté sur la figure 1, et
  • la figure 3 est une vue en perspective de la deuxième face du support de fixation représenté sur les figures 1 et 2.
The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given solely by way of example and with reference to the appended drawings, in which:
  • the figure 1 is a view, in section along a vertical plane parallel to a cross member, of a fastening system according to the invention adapted to fix a Eurobalize on the cross member,
  • the figure 2 is a perspective view of the first face of one of the mounting brackets present in the fastening system shown in FIG. figure 1 , and
  • the figure 3 is a perspective view of the second face of the mounting bracket shown in FIGS. figures 1 and 2 .

En référence à la figure 1, on décrit un système 1 de fixation d'une eurobalise 5 sur une traverse 10.With reference to the figure 1 , a system 1 for fixing a eurobalise 5 on a crossbar 10 is described.

Le système 1 comprend quatre supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B de fixation de l'eurobalise 5 sur la traverse 10. Le système 1 comprend en outre deux inserts 22, 24 reçus dans des perçages 26, 28 réalisés dans la traverse 10 selon une direction de fixation D. Le système 1 comprend aussi deux vis 30, 32 respectivement vissées dans les inserts 22, 24, à travers l'eurobalise 5 et, respectivement, d'une part les supports 15A, 15B, et d'autre par les supports 20A, 20B.The system 1 comprises four supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B for fixing the eurobalise 5 on the crosspiece 10. The system 1 further comprises two inserts 22, 24 received in bores 26, 28 made in the cross member 10 according to a fixing direction D. The system 1 also comprises two screws 30, 32 respectively screwed into the inserts 22, 24, through eurobalise 5 and, respectively, on the one hand the supports 15A, 15B, and on the other by the supports 20A, 20B.

La traverse 10 s'étend selon une direction transversale T, par exemple perpendiculaire à la direction de fixation D. On définit également une direction longitudinale L d'une voie ferrée (non représentée) à laquelle la traverse 10 appartient. La direction longitudinale L est par exemple sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction transversale T et à la direction de fixation D.The crosspiece 10 extends in a transverse direction T, for example perpendicular to the direction of attachment D. It also defines a longitudinal direction L of a railway (not shown) to which the cross member 10 belongs. The longitudinal direction L is for example substantially perpendicular to the transverse direction T and to the fixing direction D.

La traverse 10 est par exemple en béton.The crossbar 10 is for example concrete.

Selon une première variante non représentée, la traverse 10 est en métal. Dans ce cas, les inserts 22, 24 sont optionnels, les vis 30, 32 étant alors avantageusement vissées directement dans la traverse 10.According to a first variant not shown, the cross member 10 is metal. In this case, the inserts 22, 24 are optional, the screws 30, 32 then being advantageously screwed directly into the cross member 10.

Selon une deuxième variante non représentée, la traverse 10 est en bois.According to a second variant not shown, the cross member 10 is made of wood.

L'eurobalise 5 présente une forme générale plane, par exemple sensiblement parallélépipédique, avantageusement sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction de fixation D. L'eurobalise 5 comporte avantageusement deux protubérances 34, 36 faisant saillie vers le bas selon la direction de fixation D et s'appuyant respectivement sur les supports 15A, 20A. L'eurobalise 5 comprend aussi deux lumières 38, 40, avantageusement situées dans les protubérances 34, 36, dans lesquelles les vis 30, 32 sont engagées.The eurobalise 5 has a generally planar shape, for example substantially parallelepipedal, advantageously substantially perpendicular to the fixing direction D. The eurobalise 5 advantageously comprises two protuberances 34, 36 projecting downwards in the direction of attachment D and s' respectively pressing the supports 15A, 20A. The eurobalise 5 also comprises two lights 38, 40, advantageously located in the protuberances 34, 36, in which the screws 30, 32 are engaged.

Les lumières 38, 40 sont sensiblement alignées transversalement.The lights 38, 40 are substantially transversely aligned.

Les supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B sont structurellement analogues les uns aux autres et gerbables, c'est-à-dire qu'ils sont empilables les uns sur les autres selon la direction de fixation D. Ainsi, dans l'exemple représenté le support 15A est empilé sur le support 15B, et le support 20A est empilé sur le support 20B.The supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B are structurally similar to each other and stackable, that is to say that they are stackable on each other in the direction of attachment D. Thus, in the example shown the support 15A is stacked on the support 15B, and the support 20A is stacked on the support 20B.

Avantageusement, chaque support a une forme adaptée pour empêcher un déplacement du support dans toutes les directions radiales par rapport à la direction de fixation D par rapport aux autres supports d'un même empilement. Ainsi, par exemple, le support 15A ne peut être déplacé en translation par rapport au support 15B selon aucune direction perpendiculaire à la direction de fixation D, même en l'absence de la vis 30.Advantageously, each support has a shape adapted to prevent a displacement of the support in all the radial directions with respect to the fixing direction D with respect to the other supports of the same stack. Thus, for example, the support 15A can not be displaced in translation relative to the support 15B in any direction perpendicular to the fixing direction D, even in the absence of the screw 30.

Chacun des supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B se situe avantageusement à l'intérieur de l'eurobalise 5 en projection selon la direction de fixation D. Dit autrement, les supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B ne dépassent pas latéralement de l'eurobalise 5.Each of the supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B is advantageously located inside the eurobalise 5 in projection according to the fixing direction D. In other words, the supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B do not protrude laterally from the eurobalise 5.

Les supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B étant analogues, seul le support 15A sera décrit ci-après en référence aux figures 2 et 3.The supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B being similar, only the support 15A will be described below with reference to the Figures 2 and 3 .

Le support 15A est par exemple en matière composite, avantageusement en polyester renforcé par des fibres de verre. Le support 15A est réalisé dans une matière ne perturbant pas le fonctionnement de la balise et avantageusement obtenu par moulage, compression SMC ou équivalent.The support 15A is for example made of composite material, advantageously of polyester reinforced with glass fibers. The support 15A is made of a material not disturbing the operation of the beacon and advantageously obtained by molding, compression SMC or equivalent.

Le support 15A présente une forme générale plane s'étendant par exemple perpendiculairement à la direction de fixation D. Par exemple, le support 15A présente une plus grande dimension Dmax (figure 2) et s'étend entre deux plans P1, P2 (figure 1) perpendiculaires à la direction de fixation D et présentant entre eux un écart E, de préférence inférieur ou égal à 1/5e de la plus grande dimension (Dmax).The support 15A has a generally planar shape extending for example perpendicular to the direction of attachment D. For example, the support 15A has a larger dimension Dmax ( figure 2 ) and extends between two planes P1, P2 ( figure 1 ) perpendicular to the fixing direction D and having a gap E between them, preferably less than or equal to 1/5 e of the largest dimension (Dmax).

Le support 15A comprend une première face 42 (figure 2) et une deuxième face 44 (figure 3) opposée à la première face selon la direction de fixation D.The support 15A comprises a first face 42 ( figure 2 ) and a second face 44 ( figure 3 ) opposite to the first face in the direction of attachment D.

La première face 42 comporte des nervures 46 de renfort et des logements 48, 50, 52, 54 définis latéralement (par rapport à la direction de fixation D) au moins en partie par les nervures 46.The first face 42 comprises reinforcement ribs 46 and recesses 48, 50, 52, 54 defined laterally (relative to the fastening direction D) at least in part by the ribs 46.

Les logements 48, 50, 52 sont fermés latéralement, tandis que le logement 54 est semi-ouvert latéralement.The housings 48, 50, 52 are closed laterally, while the housing 54 is semi-open laterally.

Chacun des logements 48, 52, 54 comprend une lumière 56 adaptée pour permettre le passage d'un organe de fixation (non représenté) analogue à la vis 30. Dans l'exemple représenté, la vis 30 passe à travers la lumière 56 du logement 54.Each of the housings 48, 52, 54 comprises a slot 56 adapted to allow the passage of a fastener (not shown) similar to the screw 30. In the example shown, the screw 30 passes through the slot 56 of the housing 54.

En variante, tout ou partie des lumières 56 reçoivent des inserts 58 comme représenté sur la figure 2, mais qui ne sont pas présents dans le système 1 représenté sur la figure 1.As a variant, all or some of the lights 56 receive inserts 58 as shown in FIG. figure 2 , but which are not present in the system 1 represented on the figure 1 .

Les inserts 58 sont destinés à servir de points d'ancrage d'un organe de fixation (non représenté) de l'eurobalise 5 sur le support 15A. Ainsi, en variante, les vis 30, 32 sont vissées dans de tels inserts 58, au lieu d'être vissées au niveau de la traverse 10.The inserts 58 are intended to serve as anchor points of a fastener (not shown) of the eurobalise 5 on the support 15A. Thus, alternatively, the screws 30, 32 are screwed into such inserts 58, instead of being screwed at the cross member 10.

En outre, les logements 50 et 54 comportent des lumières 60 destinées à permettre le passage éventuel d'organes de fixation (non représentés) du support 15A sur la traverse 10 selon la direction de fixation D, selon des modes de réalisation particuliers du système 1.In addition, the housings 50 and 54 include slots 60 intended to allow the possible passage of fasteners (not shown) of the support 15A on the cross member 10 in the direction of attachment D, according to particular embodiments of the system 1 .

En variante, les lumières 60 reçoivent des inserts (non représentés) analogues aux inserts 58 et destinés à recevoir des organes de fixation (non représentés) du support 15A sur la traverse 10.Alternatively, the slots 60 receive inserts (not shown) similar to the inserts 58 and intended to receive fasteners (not shown) of the support 15A on the crossbar 10.

Enfin, le logement 50 comprend un orifice 62 adapté pour permettre l'évacuation, à travers le support 15A, d'eau qui serait retenue dans le logement 50.Finally, the housing 50 comprises an orifice 62 adapted to allow the evacuation, through the support 15A, of water which would be retained in the housing 50.

La deuxième face 44 présente une forme sensiblement complémentaire de celle de la première face 42. La deuxième face 44 comprend des protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74 adaptées pour être reçues dans les logements 48, 50, 52, 54 du support 15B. Les protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74 sont séparées par des sillons 76 sensiblement complémentaires des nervures 46.The second face 44 has a shape substantially complementary to that of the first face 42. The second face 44 comprises protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74 adapted to be received in the housing 48, 50, 52, 54 of the support 15B. The protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74 are separated by grooves 76 substantially complementary to the ribs 46.

Les lumières 56, 60 et l'orifice 62 débouchent respectivement dans les protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74.The lights 56, 60 and the orifice 62 open respectively into the protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74.

Dans l'exemple représenté, les nervures 46 et les protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74 font saillie à partir d'une plaque 76 perpendiculaire à la direction de fixation D.In the example shown, the ribs 46 and the protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74 project from a plate 76 perpendicular to the fixing direction D.

Le fond des sillons 76 est avantageusement plan et les nervures 46 ont un sommet aplani, complémentaires de ce fond.The bottom of the furrows 76 is advantageously plane and the ribs 46 have a flattened top, complementary to this bottom.

De même, les logements 48, 50, 52, 54 ont un fond sensiblement plat et les protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74 ont un sommet aplani complémentaire.Similarly, the housings 48, 50, 52, 54 have a substantially flat bottom and the protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74 have a complementary flattened top.

Le montage et le fonctionnement du système 1 vont maintenant être décrits.The assembly and operation of the system 1 will now be described.

Les perçages 26 et 28 sont tout d'abord réalisés dans la traverse 10. Puis les inserts 22, 24 sont introduits dans les perçages 26, 28.The holes 26 and 28 are first made in the cross member 10. Then the inserts 22, 24 are introduced into the holes 26, 28.

Ensuite, les supports 15A, 15B sont empilés sur la traverse 10 de manière à ce que la lumière 56 soit alignée avec le perçage 26 selon la direction de fixation D. Les supports 20A, 20B sont installés de manière analogue au-dessus du perçage 28.Then, the supports 15A, 15B are stacked on the crosspiece 10 so that the light 56 is aligned with the bore 26 in the direction of attachment D. The supports 20A, 20B are similarly installed above the bore 28 .

Enfin l'eurobalise 5 est disposée au-dessus des supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B de manière à ce que les lumières 38, 40 soient alignées avec les perçages 26, 28. Les protubérances 34, 36 reposent sur le fond du logement 54 des supports 15A, 20A.Finally the eurobalise 5 is disposed above the supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B so that the slots 38, 40 are aligned with the holes 26, 28. The protuberances 34, 36 rest on the bottom of the housing 54 supports 15A, 20A.

L'eurobalise 5 s'appuie avantageusement aussi sur certaines des nervures 46 des supports 15A, 20A.The Eurobalise 5 also advantageously relies on some of the ribs 46 of the supports 15A, 20A.

Les protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74 des supports 15A et 20A s'appuient sur le fond des logements 48, 50, 52, 54 des supports 15B et 20B. Les nervures 46 des supports 15B, 20B sont engagées dans les sillons 76 des supports 15A, 20A.The protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74 of the supports 15A and 20A rest on the bottom of the housings 48, 50, 52, 54 of the supports 15B and 20B. The ribs 46 of the supports 15B, 20B are engaged in the grooves 76 of the supports 15A, 20A.

Les supports 15B et 20B reposent directement sur la traverse 10 par leurs protubérances 68, 70, 72, 74.The supports 15B and 20B rest directly on the crosspiece 10 by their protuberances 68, 70, 72, 74.

Les vis 30, 32 sont introduites comme représentées sur la figure 1 et vissées dans les inserts 22, 24.The screws 30, 32 are introduced as shown on the figure 1 and screwed into the inserts 22, 24.

En variante, il est possible d'utiliser moins de supports que représentés sur la figure 1, ou d'empiler plus de supports de manière à placer l'eurobalise 5 à une distance prédéterminée de la traverse 10 selon la direction de fixation D.As a variant, it is possible to use fewer supports than represented on the figure 1 , or to stack more supports so as to place the Eurobalise 5 at a predetermined distance from the cross member 10 in the direction of attachment D.

Selon une variante non représentée, l'eurobalise 5 est fixée sur la traverse 10 par des vis analogues aux vis 30, 32 passant par les lumières 56 des logements 48 et/ou 52.According to a variant not shown, the eurobalise 5 is fixed on the cross member 10 by screws similar to the screws 30, 32 passing through the slots 56 of the housings 48 and / or 52.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation (non représentés), certaines des vis de fixation de l'eurobalise 5 ne sont pas vissées au niveau de la traverse 10, mais dans l'un ou plusieurs des inserts 58 (figure 2) de l'un ou plusieurs des supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B. Dans ce cas, au moins l'un des supports, par exemple les supports 15B, 20B, empilés est fixé sur la traverse 10 par un organe de fixation, tel qu'une vis, à travers une ou plusieurs des lumières 60 d'un ou plusieurs des logements 50 et 54.According to particular embodiments (not shown), some of the fixing screws of the eurobalise 5 are not screwed at the cross member 10, but in one or more of the inserts 58 (FIG. figure 2 ) of one or more of the supports 15A, 15B, 20A, 20B. In this case, at least one of the supports, for example the supports 15B, 20B, stacked is fixed on the crosspiece 10 by a fixing member, such as a screw, through one or more of the lights 60 of a or more of dwellings 50 and 54.

On comprend qu'il existe ainsi une multitude de façons de fixer l'eurobalise 5 sur la traverse 10 ou l'un des supports, et les supports entre eux et/ou à la traverse.It is understood that there are thus a multitude of ways to fix the Eurobalise 5 on the crossbar 10 or one of the supports, and the supports between them and / or the cross.

Le support 15A est « universel », en ce sens qu'il s'adapte à différents types de traverses 10. De plus, en empilant les supports, il est possible de régler la hauteur de fixation de l'eurobalise 5. En outre, de nombreuses possibilités de fixation existent.The support 15A is "universal" in that it adapts to different types of crosspieces 10. In addition, by stacking the supports, it is possible to adjust the mounting height of the eurobalise 5. In addition, many fixing possibilities exist.

Grâce aux caractéristiques décrites ci-dessus, le système 1 est simplifié, puisqu'il repose sur l'utilisation d'un support universel, tout en restant adaptable à différentes sortes de traverses et d'eurobalises.With the features described above, the system 1 is simplified, since it relies on the use of a universal support, while remaining adaptable to different kinds of sleepers and eurobalises.
