Description

  The present invention relates to a rail-supporting variable pad used for accurately maintaining the position of a rail surface of a railroad, and more particularly to an improvement of a covering material for a variable pad used to manufacture such a thickness-variable pad. .

  Railroad rails are subject to large loads and impacts every time a vehicle travels on them, and may cause displacement such as subsidence. To ensure stable vehicle travel, correct the rail displacement. It is known that track maintenance is indispensable. Recently, in order to suppress the displacement of the rail and reduce the labor of the track maintenance work, a concrete slab is installed on the concrete roadbed, and a track is constructed on the concrete slab.

  However, even with a roadbed constructed of concrete slabs, the impact on the rail increases as the vehicle speed increases, and more precision is required for track maintenance to correct the rail displacement. Yes. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the track fastening device for providing the rail on the slab has a variable pad B for precisely adjusting the height of the rail surface on the tie plate A installed on the slab. Further, a buffer pad C for buffering the vibration of the rail is placed on top of it, and a U-shaped iron plate D for preventing the occurrence of the positional deviation is put on the rail, and the rail placed on it is placed on a leaf spring. What is comprised so that it may fasten with the tie plate A via a bolt and a bolt is employ | adopted.

  And the conventional variable pad B used here was equipped with the check valve 12 in the corner | angular part of two places which opposes the plastic substantially rectangular bag body 10 as shown in FIG. An infusion tube 11 and an exhaust tube 13 are provided, respectively, and the encapsulating material 1 in which the reinforcing material 14 for the cross-linked curable resin to be injected is accommodated in the bag body 10 is used to encapsulate the encapsulating material. By injecting a crosslinkable liquid resin into the material 1 and curing it, a variable pad B having a shape and dimensions suitable for the installation location was manufactured on site and used as it was. .

  That is, at the site where track maintenance work is carried out, first, the bolt of the track fastening device is loosened and the rail is lifted upward, and the position of the variable pad B between the two protrusions a of the tie plate A of the fastening device in FIG. After the covering material 1 is placed and subsequently the track pad C, the U-shaped iron plate D and the like are stacked, the rail is lowered to a position where the rail surface becomes a predetermined height and supported by the cradle. Then, after providing an opening at the tip of the exhaust tube 12, the cross-linkable curable liquid resin is injected from the injection tube 11 to expand the covering material 1, and when the air is no longer discharged from the exhaust tube 13, the exhaust tube 13. When the expansion of the covering material 1 is stopped, the liquid resin injection device is removed from the injection tube 11 and waits until the crosslinking curable liquid resin is completely cured, and then the exhaust tube 13 and the injection are injected. The tube 11 is cut off to complete the variable pad B, the cradle that has been supporting the rail during the work is removed, and the rail is returned to the support by the fastening device.

  However, in the conventional variable pad, air is likely to remain inside when the injection speed of the crosslinkable curable liquid resin is increased. Therefore, the air expands due to the curing heat of the liquid resin and the internal pressure increases, and the liquid resin is ejected or overflows. There is a problem that the equipment is soiled and causes a failure or the operator is injured. In addition, it is difficult to determine when to stop the operation of the liquid resin injection device, when to remove it, whether to operate the liquid resin quickly, and to close the exhaust tube when curing the liquid resin. There is a risk of a similar accident if too much. If the injection rate is slowed down in order to ensure work safety, there is a disadvantage that the work efficiency is lowered, and there is a problem that it is necessary to prepare skilled workers.

  The present invention solves the problems of workability and safety as described above, and can efficiently perform the track maintenance work without requiring skill, and easily adjust the thickness according to the situation of the work site. The present invention proposes an improved covering material for a variable pad, which is a member suitable for manufacturing such a variable pad. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a variable pad using a variable pad covering material.

  The variable pad covering material of the present invention comprises a substantially rectangular bag formed by sealing the peripheral edge of a two-layer plastic sheet, and an injection tube provided with a check valve is provided at one corner of the bag. The exhaust tube provided with a filter protrudes from the corner and protrudes from the corner opposite to the corner of the bag, and the woven cloth reinforcing material made of rigid fibers is accommodated in the bag. The summary is as follows.

  And the manufacturing method of the variable pad of this invention consists of the substantially rectangular bag body formed by sealing the peripheral part of a two-layered plastic sheet, The injection tube provided with the non-return valve is made into 1 of this bag body. An exhaust tube having a filter projecting at the corner and converging the fiber bundle into a rod shape at least over the entire length is provided at the corner facing the corner of the bag, and the bag Limit the maximum thickness of a variable pad covering material that contains a woven fabric reinforcement made of rigid fibers in the body, and a linear member that has variable shape maintaining properties along the length of the injection tube. In a state where it is placed under the means for injecting, the cross-linkable curable liquid resin is injected from the injection tube, the air in the enveloping material is pushed out from the exhaust tube, and the liquid resin is replaced when the majority of the filter is replaced with the liquid resin. Stop the injection and wrap the end of the injection tube And held in a position higher than the upper surface of the timber to cure the liquid resin, it was excised and infusion tube and the exhaust tube, characterized in that to obtain variable pad.

  By using the covering material for a variable pad of the present invention, a variable pad having an appropriate thickness as required, particularly a variable pad used for laying railroad rails, can be accurately and safely developed. It is possible to manufacture with high efficiency without necessity. And the manufacturing method of the variable pad of the present invention is an improved method suitable for using the covering material for the variable pad of the present invention in manufacturing the variable pad. Since it is difficult to cause an erroneous operation, there is an advantage that a large number of variable pad manufacturing processes can be performed in a shorter time, and labor can be reduced and productivity can be significantly improved compared to the prior art.

Hereinafter, the structure of the variable pad covering material of the present invention will be described with reference to the examples of FIGS.
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 2 denotes a variable pad covering material according to the present invention. The covering material 2 is formed by laminating two transparent plastic sheets 2 a, welding the surrounding portions, and disposing unnecessary portions outside thereof. In the figure, the upper sheet is cut away at the welded portion 2b so that the internal structure can be seen. Here, reference numeral 20 denotes a substantially rectangular bag body portion, and a cross-linkable curable liquid resin such as a two-component epoxy resin is injected into the bag body portion 20 at one corner portion thereof. An injection tube 21 is provided to project. The end of the injection tube 21 has a shape that expands outward, and is configured so that a nozzle (not shown) of a liquid resin injection device can be inserted and coupled. A check valve 22 is provided at a position slightly behind the end of the injection tube 21 to prevent the liquid from going outward. The check valve 22 is fused and fixed to the inner wall surface of the injection tube 21. Has been.

  On the other hand, a woven cloth-like reinforcing material 25 formed by weaving rigid fibers such as glass fibers, for example, is enclosed in the bag body portion 20 so as to leave a margin around the bag body portion. An exhaust tube 23 projects from a corner portion facing the 20 injection tubes 21. In the exhaust tube 23, a large number of rod-like filters for guiding the air in the bag body 20, such as a composite fiber in which a polypropylene core is coated with polyethylene, are converged to form a fiber bundle. In addition, the porous and air-permeable rod-shaped filter 24 obtained by semi-melting the surface portion is in contact with the reinforcing member 25 in the bag body 20 from the vicinity of the open end of the exhaust tube 23 as can be seen from FIG. To the position of the exhaust tube 23, and heat pressure is applied to the two locations closer to the open end than the middle of the exhaust tube 23, compressing both sides, leaving the center of the filter 24, and the outer surface of the compression portion A first fixing portion 24a and a second fixing portion 24b are formed by fusing to the inner surface of the exhaust tube 23.

  In addition, an insertion hole 21a is formed along the length of one side of the injection tube 21, and a linear member 26 having variable shape maintaining property, such as a synthetic resin-coated wire, is provided therein. For example, it is inserted and fixed in a folded state. Furthermore, positioning locking portions 27 that can be engaged with the side end surfaces of the projections a of the tie plate A are provided at the peripheral edge portion of the bag body portion 20, particularly in the vicinity of both ends of the long side.

In order to manufacture the variable pad in the track maintenance work using the variable pad covering material of the present invention configured as described above, the operation is performed according to the following procedure.
First, when the variable pad covering material 2 of the present invention is placed substantially horizontally between the projections a on the tie plate A in the track fastening device, the positioning locking portions 27 are respectively engaged with the side end surfaces of the projections a. When the injection tube 21 and the like are pulled, the position does not easily shift. Therefore, the track pad C, the U-shaped iron plate D, etc. are sequentially stacked on the covering material 2 and supported by the rail so that the rail surface has a predetermined height so that the maximum thickness of the variable pad can be limited. To do. Thus, when the cross-linking curable liquid resin injection device is coupled to the injection tube 21 and the liquid resin is pressurized and injected into the bag body portion 20, the air in the covering material 2 is discharged from the exhaust tube 23 through the filter 24. Then, the liquid resin sequentially fills the periphery of the reinforcing material 25 and gaps, and then reaches a position where it comes into contact with the filter 24.

  In this state, since the liquid resin having a viscosity much higher than that of air does not easily enter the filter 24, the remaining air is first pushed out through the filter 24, and the injection pressure of the liquid resin increases. Initially, the liquid resin slowly enters the filter 24. Since the tip position of the liquid resin at this time can be visually recognized from the outside of the exhaust tube 23 as a portion where the white opaque filter 24 has changed to translucent, the liquid resin first reaches the first fixing portion 24a, and then the second second. It is possible to easily detect the time point toward the fixing portion 24b. Therefore, if the operation of the liquid resin injection device is stopped at this time, it is possible to reliably avoid the ejection of the liquid resin. Furthermore, when the liquid resin injection device is removed from the injection tube 21, the linear member 26 is used so that the end of the injection tube 21 faces upward at a position higher than the upper surface of the covering material 2, By keeping the state where the injection tube 21 is bent, it can be easily avoided.

  Thus, after the liquid resin is cured, the exhaust tube 23 and the injection tube 21 are cut off, and after the variable pad is completed, the normal work in the conventional track maintenance work can be returned.

  As described above, in the process of manufacturing the variable pad using the variable pad covering material of the present invention, the determination of the time to move to the next process, the adjustment of the work speed, the accuracy of the operation, etc. Most of the problems in the prior art are solved by the present invention. Therefore, it is possible to manufacture a variable pad of a certain quality safely and reliably, there is no worry about equipment damage or personal injury due to erroneous operation, standardization of work is progressed, and work efficiency is greatly improved. In addition, there is an advantage that labor can be reduced.

  The covering material for variable pads of the present invention can be used to improve the quality of railway track maintenance work, improve safety, and improve work efficiency and economy. In addition, it can be widely applied.
