Abstract

The cleaner is for sweeping waste from between railway lines and comprises a brush (5) rotating about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the rails, which picks up and discharges the waste onto a table in front of the brush. The table vibrates and is inclined towards the outside of the railway lines. The height of the brush w.r.t. the sleepers can be adjusted, and its adjustment movement follows an arc of a circle centred on the front wheel of the cleaner.

Description

La présente invention concerne une machine légère destinée au nettoyage, ou au dégarnissage du ballast et des détritus se trouvant au-dessus du niveau des traverses, et pouvant être facilement transportée ou mise hors voie ferrée par queLques hommes
Actuellement, ces travaux sont soit rffialisés manuellement à l'aide de fourches par exemple, soit à l'aide de machines lourdes (aspirateurs, machines à tambour, etc.., qu'il est impossible de mettre hors voie rapidement avant l'arrivé-e d'un train. De plus, l'emploi de ces machines lourdes ne permet pas de généraliser ces travaux du fait du codt élevé d'exploitation.
The present invention relates to a light machine intended for cleaning, or stripping the ballast and the detritus lying above the level of the sleepers, and which can be easily transported or put off railroad by some men.
Currently, these works are either carried out manually using forks for example, or using heavy machines (vacuum cleaners, drum machines, etc.), which it is impossible to put out of track quickly before arriving In addition, the use of these heavy machines does not make it possible to generalize these works because of the high operating cost.

La machine, objet de 11 invention, est une machine mécanique légère remplaçant le travail manuel, et dont le codt d'exploitation est très bas. Elle peut donc être rapidement mise hors la voie dès l'annonce d'un train. Elle circule librement sur la voie ferrée, mais elle peut aussi être prévue équipée d'un dispositif de traction indépendant. The machine, object of the invention, is a light mechanical machine replacing manual work, and whose operating code is very low. It can therefore be quickly put out of the way when a train is announced. It travels freely on the railway, but it can also be provided equipped with an independent traction device.

Elle est essentiellement constituée d'un tambour circulaire muni d'un certain nombre de balais éjectant vers l'avant de la machine les détritus, terres, ballast etc... se trouvant audessus du niveau des traverses. Devant ces balais se trouve une table vibrante à plan incliné qui reçoit ce ballast, terres et détritus et fait ainsi descendre ce matériaux par glissement à l'extérieur de la voie ferrée. It essentially consists of a circular drum fitted with a certain number of brushes ejecting, towards the front of the machine, the detritus, soil, ballast etc ... lying above the level of the sleepers. In front of these brushes is a vibrating table with an inclined plane which receives this ballast, soil and detritus and thus makes this material descend by sliding outside the railway.

La machine représentée sur la figure unique est prévue pour travailler sur la moitié de la largeur de la voies mais le même procédé peut être utilisé pour travailler sur toute la largeur de la voie. The machine shown in the single figure is intended to work on half the width of the track but the same process can be used to work on the entire width of the track.

Telle qu'elle est représentée, la machine comporte un châssis 1 pouvant librement circuler sur la voie ferree par l'intermédiaire des roues 2a, 2b, 2c, et 2d. Une poignée 3 permet au Conducteur de manoeuvrer la machine selon la flèche F.  As shown, the machine comprises a frame 1 which can move freely on the railway by means of the wheels 2a, 2b, 2c, and 2d. A handle 3 allows the Driver to maneuver the machine according to arrow F.

Le cassis I supporte un ensemble de balais rotatifs 4 constitués d'un certain nombre (quatre sur la figure) de brosses 5. Le balai rotatif 4 est entraîné par un groupe moteur 6 selon les flèches F1 . Une table réceptrice 7 à plan incliné dans le sens transversal à la voie ferrée est fixée au chassies 5 par l'intermédiaire de suspensions élastiques non représentées. La table 7 reçoit un mouvement vibratoire puissant par 7'intermédiaire de masselottes excentrées 8 situées sous la table 7, ces masselottes 8 étant entraînées en rotation par des courroies 9 et 10 , elles-mêmes entraînées par l'axe du balai rotatif 4 .Le règlage à bonne hauteur des brosses 5 par rapport au rail, et en fonction de leur propre degré d'usure est réaiisé en agissant sur le volant il qui commande une vis de réglage faisant pivoter l'ensemble du chassies 1 autour de l'axe de la roue 2a, la roue 2c étant solidaire dtun caisson mobile 12 coulissant verticalement sur le châssis 1. The blackcurrant I supports a set of rotary brushes 4 made up of a number (four in the figure) of brushes 5. The rotary brush 4 is driven by a motor unit 6 according to the arrows F1. A receiving table 7 with an inclined plane in the direction transverse to the railroad track is fixed to the chasms 5 by means of elastic suspensions not shown. The table 7 receives a powerful vibratory movement 7 'by means of eccentric weights 8 located under the table 7, these weights 8 being driven in rotation by belts 9 and 10, themselves driven by the axis of the rotary brush 4. setting the brushes 5 to the correct height with respect to the rail, and depending on their own degree of wear, is effected by acting on the flywheel, which controls an adjustment screw making the whole of the casings 1 pivot around the axis of the wheel 2a, the wheel 2c being integral with a mobile box 12 sliding vertically on the chassis 1.

A chaque règlage du volant 11, il faut aussi repositionner sur le rail opposé les deux autres roues 2b et 2d pour assurer le bon équilibrage de l'ensemble de la machine.Each time the flywheel 11 is adjusted, the other two wheels 2b and 2d must also be repositioned on the opposite rail to ensure proper balancing of the whole machine.

L'avancement selon F produit l'éjection des terres, ballast et détritus sur la table vibrante 7 qui éjecte l'ensemble vers l'extérieur de la voie grâce aux vibrations réalisées par les masselottes 8 et au plan incliné de la table 7.The advancement along F produces the ejection of earth, ballast and detritus on the vibrating table 7 which ejects the assembly towards the outside of the track thanks to the vibrations produced by the counterweights 8 and to the inclined plane of the table 7.

La machine, obJet de l'invention, peut être utilisée dans tous les cas où il est impossible d'utiliser des machines lourdes et onéreuses, lors des travaux d'entretien, ou lors de renouvellements pour l'évacuation du surplus de ballast.  The machine, object of the invention, can be used in all cases where it is impossible to use heavy and expensive machines, during maintenance work, or during renewals for the evacuation of excess ballast.
