Abstract

1400625 Railway track levelling machines MATISA MATERIEL INDUSTRIEL SA 16 June 1972 [7 July 1971] 28362/72 Heading E1G In a method of levelling and compacting railway track by a continuously advancing machine (a) the track is lifted by means 15; (b) ballast is spread beneath the raised sleepers by plough or other means 13 to form a predetermined overhigh track support surface 25; and (c) the ballast is compacted and the track lowered to the required final level by means 17 applying a vertical pulsating force directly to the rails. In the machine shown the track is temporarily lifted above the surface 25 to allow passage of an vibratory or other ballastlevelling shoe 13 positioned by jacks 11, 12 and a telescoping stay 14. In a modification, Figs. 2, 3 (not shown) the track is lifted by a jack (15') until the underside of the sleepers are at the desired overhigh level and ballast is introduced laterally up to this level from the ballast shoulders by inclined or curved surfaces on ploughs (32). The compacting means 17 comprises a p.t.f.e. coated impact shoe sliding on the rails and positioned by a telescopic stay 22, the shoe being vibrated at variable frequency and amplitude by a vibrator 18 and having a variable static load applied by spring 20 and jack 19. Control. A wire, optical or other datum level 8 cooperates with a front sensor 23 attached to the ballast-levelling means 13 and with a rear sensor 27 shown riding on the rails 23 to feed error signals el, e2 into apparatus 26, 28, 30, 31 not described in detail, and such apparatus may be used in various ways to ensure that the desired final track level is achieved by controlling the jacks producing the level 25, the degree of compaction and the advance rate of the machine.
