Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for moving a tongue rail of a switch, with a holding element attached to a stock rail and at least one roller fastened thereon, the axis of rotation of which is essentially parallel to the course of the rail, and which is arranged such that the tongue rail is in a lower resting position on the Stock rail can roll up on the roll, and with a spring element.
  • Arrangements in which a holding element is attached directly to the stock rail enable simplified installation.
  • the roller is then typically mounted on a resilient suspension, whereby a behavior similar to that of the devices of the type described above is achieved.
  • the sprung suspension also causes considerable manufacturing and maintenance costs.
  • the DE 44 05 115 A1 describes devices which have rollers on a holder. Part of the roller suspension is tilted in the abutting position of the tongue rail by a spring element arranged under the rollers, as a result of which the tongue rail rests on a sliding chair with reduced contact pressure.
  • the rollers sometimes have an elastic jacket to reduce the friction when the tongue rail slides along the sliding chair. This structure is very complex and prone to errors. When the spring element ages, the spring constant can change, which leads to increased friction and malfunctions. In addition, the known device is very susceptible to malfunctions due to contamination due to the complex structure.
  • the object of the present invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to provide a solution which is largely similar in function to the devices described above, but has a simplified structure, is inexpensive to manufacture and causes little maintenance.
  • the spring element is arranged inside the roller and that the roller is fastened by at least one screw connection and is adjustably fixed in a slide rail on the holding element. In this way it is possible to store the roll itself essentially unsprung and thus to achieve a significant simplification of the structure.
  • Spring-loaded rollers ie rollers that have a spring element between a hub and the outer circumference, are known per se, but it is not known Instead of a spring-loaded suspension of a roller, which is intended for the sliding of a tongue rail, use a self-sprung, but unsprung roller.
  • An important aspect of the present invention is the simple fastening of the device to the stock rail, so that assembly is possible regardless of the configuration of adjacent sleepers, provided that only the space required for accommodating the device is available.
  • the outermost casing of the roller is made of metal. In this way it is achieved that the relatively large mechanical load at the start of the sliding can be absorbed without damage, without impairing the spring action.
  • the roller is designed as an elastomer-sprung roller.
  • suitable materials it is possible to achieve a very long service life.
  • a particularly simple assembly and adjustment of the device can be achieved in that the roller is fastened by at least one screw connection and the slide rail is fixed on the holding element.
  • the correct position of the roller transversely to the longitudinal direction of the stock rail can be easily adjusted by moving it along the slide rail.
  • it is particularly favorable if the roller is attached to the holding element by at least one eccentric fastening. In this way, the height of the roller can also be optimized in the same setting process.
  • the eccentric fastening has at least one polygonal plate fixed in the slide rail on the holding element and at least one screw, the screw running through an eccentric hole through the plate.
  • the versatile plate is designed as an octagon, for example, so that eight different setting positions are available.
  • the required range of displacement of the tongue rail is larger than the width of the foot of the tongue rail.
  • at least one second roller is attached to the holding element, the axes of rotation of the rollers being arranged essentially parallel to one another.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the bearing of the roller on the holding element is rigid.
  • the suspension of the role is thereby accomplished exclusively via the spring element built into the roller, which ensures a particularly simple construction.
  • the spring element is designed as a hollow cylinder, the inside diameter of which is in a range between 30% and 60%, preferably between 45% and 55%, of the outside diameter. In this way, the required mechanical stability can be ensured and sufficient suspension can be achieved at the same time.
  • Figure 1a discloses a side view of an embodiment, with a tongue rail 2, which is in the resting position.
  • a holding element 7 of the device is fastened to a stock rail 3 with a fastening device 4.
  • the device is not arranged directly at the end of the tongue rail 2, so that the tongue rail 2 and the cheek rail 3 do not touch in the area of the device even in the lying position.
  • a roller 1 is connected via its axis 20 to an eccentric attachment. The size of the roller 1 is selected so that the tongue rail 2 can be rolled up easily, and positioned so that the highest point of its jacket is somewhat higher than the contact surface of the tongue rail 2.
  • the eccentric fastening is as a polygonal plate 6 in in the form of a regular octagon with an eccentric bore 2c for carrying out the axis 20.
  • This embodiment results in a particularly simple adjustability of the height of the roller 1 when the device is assembled or at a later point in time.
  • the uppermost point of the casing of the roller 1 is in a weaker or more elevated position in relation to the contact surface of the tongue rail 2. So that the lifting height of the tongue rail 2 can depend can be optimally adjusted from the installation situation of the device and external parameters.
  • the eccentric attachment is guided in a slide rail 7a of the holding element 7.
  • the eccentric attachment and thus also the roller 1 is fixed on the holding element 7 via a nut 8.
  • the horizontal position of the roller 1 can be easily adjusted on site and, if necessary, also adjusted.
  • a setting is optimal when the roller 1 and the tongue rail 2 touch in the resting position, but the tongue rail 2 is still not fully resting on the roller 1, but is resting on a sliding chair 21. This guarantees that forces which are applied to the tongue rail 2 by corresponding vehicles when the tongue rail 2 is passed over are not, or only to a small extent, transmitted to the roller 1. At the same time, however, it is ensured that rolling onto roll 1 is easily possible and that there is no unnecessary friction.
  • the position of the roller 1 can be set exactly. On the one hand, this is very cost-efficient and less prone to errors, on the other hand, the setting can be carried out very easily and quickly and can be changed at any time as required.
  • the 2a to 2d show an embodiment of an eccentric attachment 6 in front, side and rear view, and an oblique view. It has an octagonal adjustment segment 6a and a centrally arranged guide segment 6b with an eccentric bore 2c, the latter being intended to receive the axis 20 of the roller 1.
  • the position of the bore 2c is selected such that there is a different distance from its center to each side edge of the setting segment 6a. As a result, the exact position of the bore 2c and thus the position of the roller 1, in particular the height of the roller 1, can be set by rotating the eccentric fastening 6 in a corresponding guide in the holding element 7.
  • FIG. 3 shows an exploded view of an embodiment variant with two rollers 1.
  • the holding element 7 is designed similarly to that in FIG Fig. 1a and Fig. 1b described embodiment.
  • two rollers 1 are attached via two axes 20 with two eccentric attachments per side in the slide rail 7a.
  • Disks 19 are arranged between the eccentric attachments and the rollers 1, washers 9 and a spacer 10 are inserted between the eccentric attachments 6 and the nuts 8.
  • the spacer 10 is designed so that on the one hand the rolls come too close 1 against each other when setting the device is prevented, on the other hand, the distance between the rollers can still be adjusted. This is achieved in that a bore for an axis 20 is made elongated. As a result, the maximum rolling path of the tongue rail 2 on the rollers 1 can be optimally set as required.
  • Fig. 4 shows an exploded view of a spring roller. It has an outermost jacket 11. There is a spring element 13 made of elastic material, preferably elastomer, flanked by two safety rings 12 which hold the spring element 13 in the outermost jacket 11.
  • the outermost jacket 11 can be made of sturdy metal to prevent wear by rolling up the tongue rail. However, it can also be made of elastic material to allow additional damping.
  • a fastening ring 14 and two limiting elements 15 are arranged within the spring element 13.
  • the limiting elements 15 are arranged on a hollow axis 17 which rests on the axis 20. Distal to the delimiting elements 15 there are further safety rings 16, as well as one disk 18 and one toothed disk 19. Outside the washers is the eccentric attachment 6, which is separated from the nut 8 by a separate washer 9.
