Abstract

1320205 Track levelling and aligning F PLASSER 24 July 1970 [24 July 1969] 35900/70 Heading B7N [Also in Division E1] In a track levelling and consolidating machine having a wheeled chassis 1, a pair of tracklifting devices 5 having rolling contact with the rails 3 are connected to pistons 7 in a pair of cylinders 6, the fluid pressure supply to which is continuously controlled by a control system in response to the position of a shutter 17 supported by the rails and adapted to intercept a reference beam which passes from an infra-red or laser beam source 8 to a detector 9, and the adjusted level of the track is fixed by the provision of tamping tools 21 and, optionally, further compacting tools 27 mounted on a support or supports movable both vertically and longitudinally in the chassis 1, the movements being so controlled that the tools remain in a fixed position with respect to the track during a tamping operation and are then raised and transferred to new positions further along the track, while the chassis 1 continues to advance at a uniform speed. The detector 9 is supported on the already levelled track immediately behind the chassis. The source 8 may, however, be either at the front end of the chassis 1 or mounted on a separate trolley 13 having independent driving gear 12 for moving it along the track, the driving gear being controlled by a radio control system comprising a transmitter 14 and a receiver 15 on the trolley 13, such that the trolley is maintained a fixed distance in advance of the transmitter position. In the modification of Fig. 2, the reference beam from the infra-red source 8 is divergent and a pair of detectors 9, one over each rail, is used, there being additional shutters 17<SP>1</SP>, 17<SP>11</SP>, one for each rail so that tamping may be carried out to the correct degree for each rail under control of the respective detectors. A system of wires 37 co-operating with a detector 38 may also be used for automatically applying lateral forces to the rails to correct misalignment. Trolley 13 is maintained in fixed relationship to the chassis 1 by a link 13<SP>1</SP>.
