Definitions

  • the invention relates to a track construction device for machining rails, in particular grooved rails.
  • grooved rails have proven particularly in the inner city tram traffic.
  • Grooved rails are generally provided at intervals with corresponding water boxes, which collect the incoming water in the region of the groove and supply the sewer.
  • drill holes in the bottom of the grooved rail either by means of a drill or to burn corresponding slots in the groove by means of a welding torch.
  • a lift-off upper implement for machining underlay plates for rails by milling in roadworthy superstructure known which has a milling device which is mounted longitudinally and vertically displaceable on a to be brought to bear on both sides of the rail scaffolding, wherein the milling device is equipped with two milling discs, the are stored so that they can erode material on both sides of the rail from this holding fasteners.
  • EP 2 412 871 B1 is a device for the material-removing processing of laid rails in the track with a rail-mounted, a chassis and at least two axles with at least two rail tires having carrier vehicle and at least one arranged in the carrier vehicle, a machining tool for material-removing machining a rail having processing unit known.
  • a track building apparatus for machining rails in particular grooved rails, comprising a frame provided with a first pair of wheels arranged along a first rail and a second pair of wheels arranged along a second rail, between the first pair of wheels a machining unit via pivot arms on the frame relative to the first rail is adjustably fixed and can be fixed on the processing unit holding clamps on the first rail, wherein the processing unit has a base body, with respect to a milling device in three mutually perpendicular spatial directions displaced is, so that by means of a milling head of the milling device a machining of the rail, in particular a milling of a slot in the bottom of the grooved rail, is feasible.
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized in that the track construction device is designed to be movable on the rails by means of the pairs of wheels. Accordingly, the position at which the milling head of the milling device can perform a machining of the rail can be freely selected by moving on the rails. Accordingly, the track construction device can typically be displaced by the engineers without external aids, so that a multiplicity of processing points, which are arranged at a certain distance from each other, can also be processed. In particular, when milling slots in the bottom of grooved rails such processing points will be at intervals to each other, are arranged only at predetermined positions water boxes below the grooved rail.
  • the machining unit can be attached by means of the retaining clips be set on the first rail, so that by moving the milling head, the position can be selected exactly over the water box, for example.
  • the processing unit must be displaceable in all three spatial directions, so that the milling head must then be moved in the longitudinal direction of the first rail for forming the slot typically in only one direction from a starting point to an end point, wherein after reaching the end point a lower position of the milling head can be effected.
  • a suitable choice of the milling head also allows the machining of hardened rails.
  • the milling device can be provided with an optionally replaceable end mill, so that an editing on the bottom of a grooved rail or in a heart of a switch is feasible.
  • the axial length of the end mill can be chosen so that the processing point is reached at the bottom of the grooved rail or in the heart of the switch, without the milling head touches the top of the rail.
  • the milling of a slot in the bottom of a grooved rail is thus also z. As a milling of cracks on the heart of points possible.
  • the frame is made in two parts with a first sub-frame and a second sub-frame, so that the first pair of wheels against the second pair of wheels perpendicular to a direction of travel is displaceable.
  • the second subframe can be inserted transversely to the longitudinal direction in the first subframe.
  • the distance of the first pair of wheels to the second pair of wheels can be varied, so that the track construction device can be used variably at different gauges.
  • the second subframe in the first subframe for example by means of telescoping insertion different dimensioned frame segments, can now be an adaptation when editing rails in standard gauge, meter gauge or broad gauge.
  • recesses can be provided at discrete positions on the second subframe, which can be brought into coincidence with corresponding recesses on the first subframe so that the desired standardized track width can be adjusted by means of a guide bolt or the like.
  • the track width may also be infinitely adjustable.
  • the first sub-frame comprises the first pair of wheels and an articulated receiving the pivot arms.
  • a platform can be formed above the first subframe.
  • This procedure makes it possible to carry out the adjustability of the track width described above in such a way that, on the one hand, the orientation of the processing unit relative to the first rail is maintained and, on the other hand, objects arranged above a platform above the wheels are not affected by the track change , In this way, a lane change relatively easy to perform, without having to be reoriented individual components of the device.
  • a reservoir is arranged on the frame, via which a cooling fluid, in particular water, the milling head can be fed.
  • the cooling fluid is a cooling of the cutter head, so that the service life of the cutter compared to an uncooled use significantly extended.
  • the cooling fluid can both have a corresponding superscript Reservoir can be supplied only by the influence of gravity, but also by means of a specially designed pump.
  • a suitable throttling for example by means of a valve or other cross-sectional changing device, the supplied amount of the cooling fluid can be adjusted.
  • the reservoir is advantageously arranged on the platform, but can also be connected directly to the frame.
  • a power unit is arranged on the frame, which allows an electrical supply of at least the milling device.
  • the power unit for example, equipped with an internal combustion engine makes it possible to provide a power supply, at least for the milling device, independently of a mains connection.
  • Other electrical consumers such as a lighting device at night sites or other processing equipment can of course also be operated on the generator.
  • the generator is in turn advantageously arranged on the platform, a direct connection to the frame is also possible.
  • the retaining clips are made magnetic.
  • the retaining clips can be made adjustable with respect to their position relative to the frame.
  • Magnetic holding clamps allow a reliable determination of the processing unit with respect to the first rail.
  • the movement in the three spatial directions by means of mechanical spindle drives is feasible.
  • the first pair of wheels and / or the second pair of wheels are profiled on their running surfaces.
