Die Erfindung betrifft einen Hilfsrahmen zum Befestigen eines für den Transport von Schienen ausgebildeten Schienenladekrans und zum Positionieren auf der Ladefläche eines Transportwagons, mit einer Masseausgleichsplatte und einer Kranmontageplatte zur Befestigung des Schienenadekrans, wobei der Hilfsrahmen zwei parallel zueinander verlaufende Längsholme sowie zwei in einer Rahmenebene normal zu diesen verlaufende Querholme umfasst, die einen Hauptrahmen bilden, der durch einen parallel zu den Querholmen verlaufenden, zwischen diesen angeordneten Mittelträger in einen ersten und in einen zweiten Rahmenabschnitt unterteilt ist.The invention relates to a subframe for fastening a rail loading crane designed for the transport of rails and for positioning on the loading surface of a transport wagon, with a mass compensation plate and a crane mounting plate for fastening the rail loading crane, the subframe having two parallel longitudinal beams and two in a frame plane normal to comprises transverse spars extending therefrom, which form a main frame which is divided into a first and a second frame section by a central support running parallel to the transverse spars and arranged between them.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind bereits Schienenladekräne für den Transport von Schienen bekannt. Verschiedene Wagons sind dafür vorgesehen einen Schienenladekran auf einer auf einem Grundrahmen befestigten Ladeplattform aufzunehmen. Konkret ist hier der Schienenladekran fest an einer Position seitlich auf der Ladeplattform des Wagons verankert und die Schienen können bauartbedingt immer nur auf einer Seite des Gleises be- und entladen werden. Aus GB 1 201 398 ist ein schienenverfahrbares Kranfahrzeug bekannt. An dessen auf Schienenfahrwerken am Gleis abgestützten Fahrzeugrahmen sind ein mit einem Gegengewicht ausgestatteter Kran sowie ein zusätzliches Ausgleichsgewicht angeordnet. Sowohl der Kran als auch das Ausgleichsgewicht sind um eine vertikale Achse drehbar ausgebildet, wobei die Bewegungen von Kran und Ausgleichsgewicht synchronisiert werden, um das Fahrzeug stets im stabilen Gleichgewicht zu halten.Rail loading cranes for transporting rails are already known from the prior art. Various wagons are intended to accommodate a rail loading crane on a loading platform attached to a base frame. Specifically, the rail loading crane is firmly anchored in a position on the side of the wagon's loading platform and, due to the design, the rails can only be loaded and unloaded on one side of the track. Out GB 1 201 398 a rail-traveling crane vehicle is known. A crane equipped with a counterweight and an additional counterweight are arranged on its vehicle frame, which is supported on the track on rail bogies. Both the crane and the counterweight are designed to be rotatable about a vertical axis, with the movements of the crane and counterweight being synchronized in order to keep the vehicle in a stable equilibrium at all times.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun in der Schaffung eines Schienenladekrans der eingangs genannten Art, mit dem eine bessere Anpassung des Schienenkrans an unterschiedliche Baustellenbedingungen möglich ist.The object of the present invention is to create a rail loading crane of the type mentioned at the outset, with which a better adaptation of the rail crane to different construction site conditions is possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit einem Hilfsrahmen der gattungsgemäßen Art durch die im Kennzeichen des Hauptanspruches angeführten Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention with a subframe of the generic type by the features listed in the characterizing part of the main claim.

Vorteil dieser Lösung ist die Steigerung des Komforts und der Flexibilität beim Arbeiten. Die Position des Schienenkrans kann an die Bedingungen des Einsatzortes angepasst werden. Dies ermöglicht ein beidseitiges Verladen der Schienen und einen zentralen Masseausgleich des Wagons durch eine Masseausgleichsplatte.The advantage of this solution is the increase in comfort and flexibility when working. The position of the rail crane can be adapted to the conditions of the place of use. This enables loading from both sides the rails and a central mass balance of the wagon through a mass balance plate.

Weiters ist es auch möglich den Hilfsrahmen an verschiedenen Positionen in Längsrichtung des Transportwagons zu positionieren. Hierdurch kann der Bediener den Kran im Arbeitseinsatz noch flexibler an die räumlichen Gegebenheiten anpassen.Furthermore, it is also possible to position the subframe in different positions in the longitudinal direction of the transport wagon. This allows the operator to adapt the crane even more flexibly to the spatial conditions during work.

Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der Zeichnungsbeschreibung.Further advantages of the invention emerge from the dependent claims and the description of the drawings.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher beschrieben. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine schematische Seitenansicht eines erfindungsgemäßen mit einem Schienenkran ausgestatteten, und auf einem Transportwagon für Schienen positionierten Hilfsrahmen,
  • Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht des Hilfsrahmens
The invention is described in more detail below with reference to an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 a schematic side view of an auxiliary frame according to the invention equipped with a rail crane and positioned on a transport wagon for rails,
  • Fig. 2 a top view of the subframe

Ein anhand von Schienenfahrwerken 1 auf einem Gleis 2 verfahrbarer Transportwagon 3 weist einen Wagenrahmen 4 mit einer Ladefläche 5 auf. Diese dient zur Aufnahme eines Hilfsrahmens 6 mit einem darauf befindlichen, für den Transport von Schienen 7 ausgebildeten Schienenladekran 8. Der Hilfsrahmen 6 wird über lösbare Klemmvorrichtungen 9 an Längsseiten des Wagenrahmens 4 mit dem Transportwagon 3 verbunden. Je nach Wagon 3 müssen verschiedene Klemmvorrichtungen 9 angebracht werden.A transport wagon 3 which can be moved on a track 2 by means of rail bogies 1 has a wagon frame 4 with a loading area 5. This serves to accommodate an auxiliary frame 6 with a rail loading crane 8 located thereon and designed for the transport of rails 7. Depending on the wagon 3, different clamping devices 9 must be attached.

Wie in Fig. 2 ersichtlich, besteht der Hilfsrahmen 6 aus einem Hauptrahmen 10, der sich im Wesentlichen aus zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden Längsholmen 11 sowie zwei in einer Rahmenebene 12 normal zu diesen verlaufenden Querholmen 13 zusammensetzt und sich durch einen parallel zu den Querholmen 13 verlaufenden, zwischen diesen angeordneten Mittelträger 14 in einen ersten Rahmenabschnitt 15 und einen zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 16 unterteilt. Weiters sind eine Masseausgleichsplatte 17 und eine Kranmontageplatte 18 verschiebbar im Hilfsrahmen 6 gelagert angeordnet.As in Fig. 2 As can be seen, the subframe 6 consists of a main frame 10, which is essentially composed of two longitudinal spars 11 running parallel to one another as well as two transverse spars 13 running normal to these in a frame plane 12 and is composed of a central beam arranged between these running parallel to the transverse spars 13 14 divided into a first frame section 15 and a second frame section 16. Furthermore, a mass compensation plate 17 and a crane mounting plate 18 are arranged so as to be displaceable in the subframe 6.

Im ersten Rahmenabschnitt 15 befindet sich die in einer normal zu den Längsholmen 11 verlaufenden Querrichtung 19 verschiebbare Masseausgleichsplatte 17. Diese ist auf zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden, mit einem Querholm 13 und einem gegenüberliegenden Abschnitt des Mittelträgers 14 verbundenen Führungen 20 verschiebbar gelagert. Die Masseausgleichsplatte 17 ist für die Verschiebung mit einem Antrieb 21 ausgestattet. Dieser ist in Fig. 2 beispielhaft als Spindelantrieb 21 ausgeführt.In the first frame section 15 there is the mass compensation plate 17, which can be displaced in a transverse direction 19 normal to the longitudinal spars 11. This is slidably mounted on two guides 20 running parallel to one another and connected to a transverse spar 13 and an opposite section of the central support 14. The mass balancing plate 17 is equipped with a drive 21 for the displacement. This is in Fig. 2 designed as a spindle drive 21, for example.

Im zweiten Rahmenabschnitt 16 befindet sich die in einer normal zu den Querholmen 13 verlaufenden Längsrichtung 22 verschiebbare Kranmontageplatte 18. Diese ist auf zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden, jeweils mit einem Längsholm 11 verbundenen Führungen 20 verschiebbar gelagert. Auf der Kranmontageplatte 18 befinden sich zwei parallel zueinander sowie parallel zu den Führungen 20 verlaufende Kranführungen 23. Weiteres ist die Kranmontageplatte 18 mit einem Verschiebeantrieb 24 ausgestattet.Located in the second frame section 16 is the crane mounting plate 18, which can be displaced in a longitudinal direction 22 running normal to the transverse spars 13. On the crane mounting plate 18 there are two crane guides 23 running parallel to one another and parallel to the guides 20. Furthermore, the crane mounting plate 18 is equipped with a displacement drive 24.

Die Antriebe der Masseausgleichsplatte 17 und der Kranmontageplatte 18 sind so miteinander gekoppelt, dass sie eine korrelierende Bewegung der Platten und einen zentralen Gewichtsausgleich des Hilfsrahmens 6 bewirken.The drives of the mass compensation plate 17 and the crane mounting plate 18 are coupled to one another in such a way that they effect a correlating movement of the plates and a central weight compensation of the subframe 6.

Um den Schienenladekran 8 noch flexibler einsetzen zu können ist dieser relativ gegenüber der Kranmontageplatte 18 parallel zu den Querholmen 13 verschiebbar ausgeführt.In order to be able to use the rail loading crane 8 even more flexibly, it is designed to be displaceable relative to the crane mounting plate 18 parallel to the cross members 13.
