Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a machine for inspection and maintenance of trains and trams.
  • the parts of the train or tram that require the most attention in order to be able to operate with the highest ergonomics of safety are the roof, known as "imperial" in the jargon, and the sides.
  • Platform machines have therefore been developed which are adapted to allow the reaching of these train parts and, generally speaking, can be divided between fixed platforms and movable platforms.
  • the former are characterized substantially by a load-bearing structure which forms a walking surface at a fixed height which extends laterally to the tracks designed to accommodate a train or tram for a length that is comparable with that of said train or tram.
  • these fixed platforms can be provided with walking surfaces that can be extended in the direction of the train or tram, so as to reduce or eliminate the void between the coach, the platform and all the devices required for operator safety.
  • the latter instead consist of a pantograph structure that is mounted on a truck so as to allow height adjustments of the access surface.
  • these movable platforms can be provided with walking surfaces that can be extended in the direction of the train or tram so as to reduce or eliminate the void between the coach, the platform and all the devices required for operator safety.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a machine for inspection and maintenance of trains and trams that is such as to obviate the drawbacks and overcome the limitations of the background art.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a machine that allows to reach any part of the train or tram, maintaining space occupations that are small or in any case such as to not be a hindrance for access to the regions proximate to the footing of the machine.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a machine that ensures the highest levels of reliability and safety, being at the same time simple to provide and quick to install.
  • a machine for inspection and maintenance of trains and trams characterized in that it comprises a first load-bearing structure formed by at least one elevated guiding element, which can be installed in a room designed to accommodate a train or tram to be inspected and/or to be maintained at a raised height with respect to the floor of said room so as to have an orientation that is substantially parallel to the longitudinal extension of the tracks that are present in said room and on which said train or tram is to be placed, and by at least one supporting post associated with said at least one elevated guiding element by means of a first slider coupling, the degree of translational freedom of which lies on a directrix that is oriented substantially parallel to said tracks; said at least one supporting post being configured so as to rest on said floor by means of a second slider coupling (the degree of translational freedom of which is oriented substantially parallel to the degree of translational freedom of said first slider coupling; a first platform being further comprised which is slidingly associated with said at least
  • the machine for inspection and maintenance of trains and trams comprises a first load-bearing structure 2a which is formed by at least one elevated guiding element 3a, which can be installed in a room designed to accommodate a train or tram 4 to be inspected and/or to be maintained at an elevated height with respect to the floor 5, so as to have an orientation that is substantially parallel to the longitudinal extension of the tracks 6 on which the train or tram 4 is to be placed, and by at least one supporting post 7a which is associated with the elevated guiding element 3a by means of a first slider coupling the degree of translational freedom of which lies on a directrix that is oriented substantially parallel to the tracks 6.
  • the supporting post 7a is configured so that it rests on the floor 5 by means of a second slider coupling 9a and 9b, the degree of translational freedom of which is oriented substantially parallel to the degree of translational freedom of the first slider coupling 8a.
  • a first platform 10a is comprised which is slidingly associated with the supporting post 7a along an elevation direction 11 that is substantially normal to the floor 5.
  • first platform 10a is provided with first lifting and lowering and locking means 12a for its positioning and retention at a preset height along the supporting post 7a and with first perimetric delimitation means 13a configured so as to form a safety enclosure within which at least one operator 14 can perform the planned inspection and/or maintenance operations.
  • the first load-bearing structure 2a comprises at least one ground guiding element 15a which can be installed on the floor 5 in a manner that is parallel and lateral to the tracks 6, so that the supporting post 7a is associated slidingly with said ground guiding element 15a to provide the second slider coupling 9a.
  • the first load-bearing structure 2a comprises at least two supporting posts 7a which are associated with the elevated guiding element 3a, respectively, by means of two first slider couplings 8a and with the ground guiding element 15a, respectively, by means of two second slider couplings 9a.
  • the first platform 10a is associated slidingly with both of the supporting posts 7a so as to form a substantially H-shaped structure in which the first platform 10a is arranged transversely between the two supporting posts 7a.
  • a second platform 10b associated with a second load-bearing structure 2b which is substantially mirror-symmetrical to the first load-bearing structure 2a with respect to the tracks 6.
  • the second platform 10b is therefore arranged opposite the first platform 10a and is provided with second lifting and lowering and locking means 12b and with second perimetric delimitation means 13b, respectively, which are similar to the first lifting and lowering and locking means 12a and to the first perimetric delimitation means 13a.
  • At least one or both of the platforms 10a and 10b are provided with a movable walkway 16 which can be extended in the direction of the train or tram 4 so that it is possible to form a walking surface that is continuous with the train or tram 4 and free from tripping points for the operator 14.
  • each movable walkway 16 comprises a walkable deck 17 which can be moved, by virtue of movement means with manual or motorized actuation, toward and away from the train or tram 4 between a retracted position, in which the walkable deck 17 is arranged below the working balcony of the respective platform 10a or 10b, and an extracted position, in which the walkable deck 17 is extended in the direction of and in contact with the outline of the train or tram 4.
  • each walkable deck 17 is provided with a rubber-lined profile 18 which is formed at the edge that is designed to make contact with the outline of the train or tram 4.
  • each one of them comprises an overhead track which can be associated with at least one from the walls and the ceiling of the room in which the machine 1 is installed, and each first slider coupling 8a and 8b is provided by a first wheelbox 19 provided with first wheels in engagement with the overhead track.
  • the first wheels form a sliding interlocking with the overhead track so as to hang from it.
  • each one of them comprises a ground track which can be recessed in the floor 5 and each second slider coupling 9a or 9b is constituted by a second wheelbox 20 provided with second wheels 21 of the motorized type in engagement with the ground track and by third wheels 22 of the rubber-lined type and configured to remain selectively suspended or resting on the floor 5 in a manner that is adjacent to the second wheels 21.
  • lifting and lowering and locking means 12a and 12b comprise, for each platform 10a and 10b, two racks which are associated with the respective supporting posts 7a or 7b and four pinions associated in pairs with said two racks.
  • the pinions are then provided with respective gearmotors 23 which are mutually independent and controlled by electronic control and management means so as to ensure the horizontal arrangement of the platforms 10a and 10b.
  • the perimetric delimitation means 13a and 13b comprise extractable handrails 24 and gates 25 which can move toward and away from each other between a maneuvering position, in which the extractable handrails 24 and the gates 25 of each platform 10a and 10b delimit laterally the platforms 10a and 10b independently and separately from each other, so as to form for each one of them a closed enclosure within which the operator 14 can be contained safely during the operations for the movement of the platforms 10a and 10b, and an active position, in which the extractable handrails 24 and the gates 25 of each platform 10a and 10b are extracted and open so as to connect to each other the platforms 10a and 10b and so as to form a single enclosure which delimits laterally a work area of the operator 14 formed at the working balconies of the platforms 10a and 10b, at the walkable decks 17 of the extractable walkways 16 and by the outline of the train or tram 4.
  • the machine 1 described so far can be used for various interventions, including:
  • the operator is positioned longitudinally with respect to the train or tram 4 at the height of the coach on which he is to intervene, by adjusting the height of the platforms 10a and 10b to the desired working height on the basis of the type of train or tram 4.
  • This operation can be set directly from the platform 10a or 10b by means of a dedicated user interface.
  • the operator 14 before opening the gate 25, the operator 14 extends the movable walkway 16 of both platforms 10a and 10b until it makes contact with the contour of the train or tram 4 by means of a manually actuated handle and extends at the same time also the extractable handrails 24 of both platforms 10a and 10b until they make mutual contact.
  • the operator 14 can optionally engage the fall prevention devices and freely access the imperial of the train or tram 4.
  • the operator can be positioned, depending on the requirements of the work to be performed, at any height between the low position and the high position that is set.
  • the materials used, as well as the contingent shapes and dimensions may be any according to the requirements and the state of the art.
