Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a railway sleeper and a railway system comprising the sleeper.
  • the transit of train sets along a railway line is assisted by automatic control systems. These, for example, make it possible to understand when a train set passes at a predetermined point on the line.
  • a third and a fourth length are located along the railway line consecutively to the first and second length respectively.
  • a first insulating joint is located between the first and the third length.
  • a second insulating joint is located between the second and the fourth length.
  • first sleeper which allows to support the first, second, third, fourth length at the first and second insulating joints.
  • This first sleeper is provided with vertical holes which allow the installation of a first pair of side plates for fixing the first length, a second pair of plates for fixing the second length, a third pair of plates for fixing the third length, a fourth pair of plates for fixing the fourth length.
  • the first and second insulating joints are located above said first sleeper. In this manner, the connection is rigid and robust.
  • the second sleeper comprises four conduits completely embedded inside the concrete sleeper.
  • the conduits have an inlet located at one side end of the sleeper and open between the tracks so as to allow the passage of electrical cables intended to electrically connect to the first and second length.
  • the technical task underlying the present invention is to propose a railway sleeper which speeds up the installation of the line and reduces costs by reducing the number of types of sleepers required.
  • a further object of the present invention is to facilitate the installation, inspection and maintenance of the signalling components.
  • reference number 1 indicates a railway sleeper.
  • This sleeper 1 has a predominant longitudinal extension (this occurs along the direction 9).
  • the sleeper 1 comprises a first and a second fixing zone 21, 22 of corresponding lengths of rail.
  • the lengths of rail are elements which are not part of the sleeper 1.
  • the sleeper 1 is substantially made of concrete.
  • the sleeper 1 comprises at least one main concrete body (to which minor elements may be associated, such as, for example, the bridges 5 defined below).
  • the first fixing zone 21 comprises a first and a second hole 211, 212 obtained in the sleeper 1.
  • each of said first and second holes 211, 212 may be associated with a corresponding connecting element with a length of rail.
  • the connecting elements are not part of the sleeper 1 and are engageable respectively in the first and second holes 211, 212 of the first fixing zone 21. The use of two connecting elements allows the length to be clamped from both sides (opposite each other).
  • the second fixing zone 22 comprises a third and a fourth hole 221, 222. Also in this case it is possible to insert connecting elements in the third and fourth holes 221, 222 of the second fixing zone 22 to constrain a length to the sleeper 1.
  • the sleeper 1 comprises a first channel 31 which extends along the longitudinal extension of the sleeper 1 itself.
  • the first channel 31 is suitable for the passage of cables.
  • the railway sleeper 1 therefore performs both the function of cable passage and rail support (in a joint area of two consecutive lengths).
  • the first channel 31 is intermediate between two edges extending along the predominant extension of the sleeper 1 (in particular the first channel 31 extends at half the width of the sleeper 1).
  • the first channel 31 has a section orthogonal to the extension thereof, substantially U-shaped.
  • the first channel 31 therefore defines a groove which projects in height inside the thickness of the sleeper 1.
  • the first channel 31 divides at least the first fixing zone 21 from the second fixing zone 22.
  • first and second fixing zone 21, 22 are located in two different half-spaces with respect to an imaginary vertical plane 90 parallel to the direction 9 of predominant extension of the sleeper 1 and passing through the first channel 31 in a zone interposed between the first and second fixing zones 21, 22.
  • the sleeper 1 comprises a third and a fourth fixing zone 23, 24 of corresponding lengths of rail.
  • the first and third fixing zones 21, 23 are located in succession along the predominant longitudinal extension of the sleeper 1 (orthogonal to a direction of advancement of a railway train set along the sleeper 1).
  • a middle zone of the sleeper 1 is interposed between the first and third fixing zone 21, 23.
  • the first and third fixing zone 21, 23 are located at two opposite zones of the sleeper 1.
  • the second and the fourth fixing zone 22, 24 are located in succession along the predominant longitudinal extension of the sleeper 1.
  • said middle zone is intermediate between the second and fourth fixing zone 22, 24.
  • the second and fourth zone 22, 24 are located at two opposite zones of the sleeper 1.
  • the first and second fixing zone 21, 22 define in combination a first laying seat of a rail of the track and of the connecting elements to the sleeper 1.
  • the third and fourth fixing zone 23, 24 define in combination a second laying seat for another rail (and corresponding connecting elements to the sleeper 1) of the same track.
  • the first channel 31 divides the third fixing zone 23 from the fourth fixing zone 24.
  • the third and fourth fixing zone 23, 24 are located in two different half-planes with respect to an imaginary vertical plane 90 parallel to the direction 9 of predominant extension of the sleeper 1 and passing through the first channel 31 in a zone interposed between the third and fourth fixing zone 23, 24.
  • the first channel 31 is straight. Alternatively, it could extend along the predominant direction 9 of the sleeper 1, for example by defining a snaking or arcuate path.
  • the first channel 31 has a slight slope from the longitudinal ends of the sleeper 1 towards an intermediate zone. This facilitates the collection and the run-off of rainwater, avoiding stagnation.
  • the first channel 31 extends along the longitudinal extension, connecting two opposite longitudinal ends 41, 42 of the sleeper 1.
  • the first channel 31 is intended to pass below both seats of the sleeper 1 intended for supporting the tracks.
  • the sleeper 1 comprises a second channel 32 which extends transversally to the first channel 31.
  • the second channel 32 extends orthogonally to the first channel 31.
  • the second channel 32 is advantageously straight.
  • the second channel 32 crosses from side to side the width of the sleeper 1.
  • the width of the sleeper 1 is measured orthogonally to the direction 9 of predominant longitudinal extension.
  • the width of the sleeper 1 is therefore measured along the direction of extension of the track/railway line located on the sleeper 1.
  • the second channel 32 intercepts the first channel 31.
  • the first channel 31 intercepts the second channel 32 in an intermediate zone (preferably halfway) of the length of the second channel 32.
  • the second channel 32 extends in two opposite directions with respect to the first channel 31.
  • the second channel 32 has a transverse section at the predominant extension thereof which is substantially U-shaped.
  • the sleeper 1 also comprises a third channel 33 which extends transversally (preferably orthogonally) to the first channel 31.
  • the third channel 33 is parallel to the second channel 32.
  • the third channel 33 crosses from side to side the width of the sleeper 1.
  • the third channel 33 has a section orthogonal to the direction 9 of predominant extension which is substantially U-shaped.
  • walls of the first and second channel 31, 32 are radiused at the intersection between the first and second channel 31, 32.
  • walls of the first and third channel 31, 33 are radiused at the intersection between the first and third channel 31, 33.
  • the second channel 32 is nearer to the first and the second fixing zone 21, 22 than the third channel 33.
  • the third channel 33 intercepts the first channel 31.
  • the first channel 31 intercepts the third channel 33 in an intermediate zone (preferably halfway) of the length of the third channel 33.
  • the third channel 33 extends in two opposite directions with respect to the first channel 31.
  • the sleeper 1 may comprise a plurality of bridges 5 positioned straddling the first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33.
  • Such bridges 5 minimise the risk of accidental extraction of cables from the first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33.
  • These cables are electrical cables.
  • electrical cables are intended as power cables. In a particular solution, however, cables for transmitting an electrical signal could also be considered.
  • Such bridges 5 overlap the first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33 by connecting two opposite sides (between which the first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33 are located).
  • Such bridges 5 are for example plastic or metal clamps. The ends of these bridges 5 are embedded in the sleeper 1.
  • the bridges 5 are preferably connected to the sleeper 1 by bushings or another fixing system. They can also be removed to allow the installation and maintenance of the cables.
  • first, second and third channel 31, 32, 33 extend seamlessly.
  • first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33 have an opening facing upwards.
  • first and/or second and/or third channel 31, 32, 33 extend without coverage for at least 90% of the extension thereof.

  • the first connecting means 15 suitably comprises an anchor which allows it to be inserted into the first hole 211 located in the first fixing zone 21.
  • the first length 111 is connected in the first fixing zone 21.
  • the first connecting means 15 comprises a support comprising a base portion which rests on the first fixing zone 21, a portion which extends between the top and bottom (substantially vertically) and two eyelets. A flap of the first length 111 remains interposed between the base portion and the eyelets and is therefore stably constrained.
  • the first connecting means 15 comprises a pair of supports each comprising: a base portion resting on the first fixing zone 21, a portion extending between the top and bottom (substantially vertically) and two eyelets. Of the two pair supports, one connects to the first hole 211 of the first fixing zone 21 and one connects to the second hole 212 of the first fixing zone 21.
  • the system 10 suitably comprises second connecting means 16 of the second length 112 to the sleeper 1.
