Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shim for a rail fastening point, in which a rail for a rail vehicle is mounted on a substrate, wherein the shim has a main body with a rib structure formed by the underside of the associated base in the main body of the shim and by ribs and bounded by the ribs, open towards the bottom recesses is formed.
  • the invention relates to a rail fastening point, in which a rail for a rail vehicle is mounted on a substrate.
  • rail attachment points are typically part of a track system used by rail vehicles.
  • Such track systems each comprise at least two parallel rails on which the respective rail vehicle rolls with its rail wheels.
  • the attachment of the rails is done using a variety of similar rail mounting points of the type in question here, which are arranged distributed at regular intervals along the track system and each a Unterlegplatte which rests with its underside on the ground and on each of the fastened rail is supported, and at least one spring element and a clamping element, by which the spring element is clamped against the ground comprises.
  • the spring element exerts an elastic hold-down force, by which the rail is held on the shim.
  • a shim of the type mentioned above is for example from the US 2008/0179419 A1 known.
  • Such shims are used in particular in track systems, in which each of the rail bearing surface is made of comparable compliant materials, such as a wooden sill or an elastic layer with defined compliance.
  • the underlay plate distributes the static and dynamic loads that are effective when driving over the rail over a large area onto the comparably soft ground.
  • Another shim according to the preamble of present claim 1 is in WO2011 / 032970A2 described.
  • the shim can be used to fasten and guide the rail.
  • the shim is usually formed as a so-called "ribbed plate".
  • a shim has on its free top in use a footprint on which the rail is placed. Laterally, the footprint is limited by one rib each.
  • the ribs form lateral guides on which the rail is guided with the longitudinal edges of its rail foot. The ribs absorb the lateral forces which occur when the rail is passed over and guide them into the respective ground.
  • the shim can be fixed by means of suitable connections on the ground.
  • Another function of the shim in practice is that the spring elements are held and guided on it, which are required for elastic hold down the rail on the respective substrate.
  • ⁇ - or S-shaped tension clamps are used, which are clamped against the ground by means of a tensioning element, such as a sleeper screw or a bolt.
  • the rib structure formed in the underside of a shim of the type discussed herein serves on the one hand to stiffen and on the other hand to minimize the weight of the shim. Also, it allows the material significantly reduced by the rib structure over a solid design material volume, the backing plate reliable to produce plastic.
  • the object of the invention was to provide a shim for a rail fastening point, which can be produced in a simple, cost-effective manner and is avoided in the simple means an impression in a soft ground.
  • a rail attachment point should be created, which ensures that the shim permanently retains its position even when the shim is positioned on a comparably resilient substrate and in practice is exposed to high local loads.
  • the shim according to the invention has a main body with a rib structure, of its associated with the ground bottom formed in the shim and formed by ribs and bounded by the ribs, the bottom open recesses is formed.
  • the shim additionally comprises a cover, which is attached to the main body after the manufacture of the main body, wherein the cover covers the rib structure on the underside of the main body of the shim at least in sections.
  • the invention is thus based on the recognition that it is necessary to avoid damage to the substrate by the molded into the shim rib structure to distribute the load in use on the shim load over a large area on the ground.
  • the invention provides a cover, which is placed after the shaping of the ribbed plate on the rib structure on its underside associated with the ground and is then arranged in use between the shim and the substrate on which the shim sits.
  • the subsequent attachment of the cover to the main body of the shim allows the shaping of, in particular, the rib structure of the shim main body, regardless of the shroud, in terms of weight saving, manufacturing and form rigidity of the shim optimize. Also, the cost of attaching the cover to the shim is minimal because only the main body must be assembled with the cover for the completion of the shim.
  • a shim according to the invention is thereby particularly simple in that the main body of the shim and the cover attached to it form a structural unit, which can be handled as a unit at the construction site and can therefore be easily installed at the intended location.
  • a shim according to the invention is therefore superior to the conventional shims not only in terms of their utility value, but also in terms of ease of manufacture and their mountability.
  • the cover can be releasably or non-detachably fixed to the main body of a shim according to the invention. It is not absolutely necessary that the position on the main body is immovably fixed. Rather, it may be appropriate to attach the cover so loose or with play on the main body, that after placing the shim on the respective surface still a relative movement between the cover and the main body is possible. In this way, the main body can be moved after placement on the ground to some extent independently of the cover to find its optimal position of use. On the other hand, if it is to be ensured that the relative position of the cover and the main body is always maintained, it may be expedient to fix the cover too firmly on the main body of the shim.
  • the attachment of the cover to the main body of the shim can be cohesively, for example by gluing or welding, non-positively or positively, whereby these types of attachment can of course be realized in combination with each other.
  • additional tools may be provided over which the cover is clipped, screwed or locked, for example, with the shim.
  • a positive or non-positive connection to be made it may alternatively or additionally be useful to form on the underside of the main body of the shim at least one holding element for positive or non-positive holding the cover.
  • a particularly practical embodiment of the invention provides that the cover covers a portion of the underside of the main body of the shim, which is exposed in use a higher pressure load than an adjacent, uncovered by the cover portion. In rail mounting points installed in practice, it is therefore expedient to arrange the cover typically in the area of the shim associated with the field side.
  • the Depth is equal to the thickness of the cover. The inserted into the depression cover is then aligned with its free, the background associated side flush with the surrounding material on the underside of the shim, so that a uniform large-scale support of the shim at the bottom is guaranteed.
  • shims which are made of a plastic.
  • shims are known in the art in principle in large numbers and typically made of a suitable thermoplastic, such as a polyamide material or other plastics with sufficient strength.
  • a suitable thermoplastic such as a polyamide material or other plastics with sufficient strength.
  • To increase the strength of the plastic may also be fiber-reinforced in a known manner.
  • the formed in the bottom of the shim, ribs and recesses formed rib structure here allows a plastic-friendly construction, avoided in the accumulation of large volumes of material and thus a high-precision, economical and at the same time material-saving impression of the shim is made possible with conventional manufacturing methods.
  • the rib structure proves to be particularly advantageous for economical production in a plastic shim of the type according to the invention, since the wall thickness is received quadratically in the cooling time.
  • the cover can also be made of any suitable material, which has a sufficient stiffness and wear, taking into account the frictional pairing at a small thickness, which results when the shim according to the invention is placed with the cover on the respective substrate.
  • any suitable material which has a sufficient stiffness and wear, taking into account the frictional pairing at a small thickness, which results when the shim according to the invention is placed with the cover on the respective substrate.
  • the manufacture of the plastic cover may hereby have the advantage of cost-effective production and further processing as well as high durability even in an environment where high humidity and other corrosive environmental conditions prevail for metal covers.
  • the rib structure of the main body extends on its underside also in the region on which the cover is placed after the shaping of the main body.
  • the cover and the main body of the shim are made of plastic, for example, it is also possible to form the main body and the shroud in one operation, and the positioning of the shroud on the underside of the main body is subsequently performed by deformation of the cover or the main body.
  • the cover and the main body in a tool side by side, but connected to each other are prepared so that between the main body and the cover, a hinge-like connection is formed, which defines a pivot axis, so that the cover can be pivoted to the underside of the main body.
  • a hinge-like connection is formed, which defines a pivot axis, so that the cover can be pivoted to the underside of the main body.
  • the shim UP inserted in a rail fastening point P for fastening a rail S to a base U formed by a wooden sill has a main body 1 made of a fiber-reinforced polyamide resin and formed as a ribbed plate.
  • the shim UP has a rectangular basic shape seen in plan view with a measured in the longitudinal direction of the rail S to be fastened width B and a transversely oriented length L.
  • the main body 1 On its upper side 2, the main body 1 has a contact surface 3, which extends over the width B of the washer UP.
  • the rail S On the support surface 3 is in use the rail S with its rail foot SF. Between the rail foot SF and the footprint 3 may be present in a conventional manner not shown here further plate elements made of elastic or solid material to give the support of the rail S on the shim UP a certain flexibility in the direction of gravity K or when crossing the Rail S evenly distribute occurring loads.
  • the rail S and the rail attachment point P are part of a track system not further shown here, in which parallel to the rail S another similar rail arranged at a defined distance and in Rail mounting points is attached, which are each formed as the rail mounting point P. Accordingly, in the rail S between a longitudinal side L1, which is assigned to the remote from the other rail of the track system field side FS, and a longitudinal side L2 are distinguished, which is assigned to the other rail associated track side GS.
  • the section 4 of the shim UP assigned to the field side FS is lengthened and widened in relation to the section 5 of the shim UP assigned to the track side GS.
  • the contact surface 3 is bounded at its transitions to the sections 4, 5 respectively by a guide rib 6, 7, which likewise extends over the width B of the shim UP.
  • a through opening 8,9 is formed in each case centrally aligned with respect to the width B, which leads from the top 2 to the opposite, the substrate U associated bottom 10 of the shim UP and its main body 1.
  • the spring elements 13,14 are braced for this purpose by means of a screwed onto the respective threaded portion of the clamping elements 11,12 and acting against the middle loop of the respective spring element 13,14 nut 15,16 against the main body 1 of the shim UP.
  • a rib structure 25 is formed, formed by diagonally aligned, intersecting ribs 26 and bounded by the ribs 26 recesses 27.
  • the rib structure 25 is bounded by a circumferential around the shim 1 side wall 28, whose underside 10 associated narrow side spans a support surface 29 with which the shim UP rests in use on the top 30 of the substrate U.
  • the ribs 26 of the rib structure 25 ends the ribs 26 of the rib structure 25 with their undersides 10 associated narrow sides 32 at a distance AR to the support surface 29, whereas the underside 10 associated narrow sides 32 of the ribs outside this region 31 in the Support surface 29 are.
  • a depression 33 is formed in the region 31 in the main body 1, which is intended to receive a cover 34 and whose depth corresponds to the distance AR.
  • the region 31 extends in the direction of the width B between the peripheral side wall 28 and in the direction of the length L, starting from approximately the middle of the shim UP in the direction of the field side FS associated narrow side 35 of the shim UP. It ends at the adjoining the narrow side 35 edge region 36 of the bottom 10, in which the provided there through openings 21,22 are formed. In this way, in the edge region 36 sufficient material for a dimensionally stable, secure and correct position fixation of the washer UP on the substrate U under the action of the sleeper screws 19,20 available.
  • the peripheral shape of the flat, plate-like component also made of polyamide plastic, for example, cover 34 is adapted to the circumferential shape of the recess 33 provided in the main body 1.
  • the thickness DA of the cover 34 corresponds to the distance AR with which the ribs 26 end in the region of the depression 33 below the support surface 29.
