It is a right view of a railroad crossing-off machine which shows the state where the cut-off was locked. FIG. 3 is a front view of the railroad crossing machine showing a state where a grip is attached when transporting the railroad crossing barrier having the lock structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a crossing of the railroad crossing machine of FIG. It is a right view of a machine.

  The railroad crossing breaker 1 is installed at a railroad railroad crossing. The railroad crossing breaker 1 includes a base body 10 and a cutting bar 20 attached to the base body 10.

  The base 10 is provided with a cutoff holding member 11 for holding the cutoff 20 on the front surface on the outside thereof. On the front and side surfaces of the base 10, there is provided a lock structure 50 that can be used to lock and lift the shield 20 in the upright position and to hold and lift the base 10 when transporting the base 10. Have.

  Moreover, the base 10 can attach and detach the hanging bolts 40 and 40 to the top. The suspension bolts 40 have a ring-shaped head portion 41 through which a wire is passed when the suspension bolt 40 is lifted by a crane. The base 10 is preferably made of an aluminum casting for weight reduction.

  Inside the base body 10 are disposed a motor (not shown) that serves as a power source for raising and lowering the shut-off can 20 and a speed reduction mechanism for transmitting the motor at a reduced speed. The rotation of the motor transmitted through the speed reduction mechanism is transmitted to the rotating shaft 15 shown in FIG.

  In the rotary shaft 15, the above-described shielding holding member 11 is fixed to one end portion protruding to the outside of the base body 10. Thereby, the cutoff holding member 11 can be rotated in both directions (the arrow A direction and the arrow B direction opposite to the arrow A direction) with the rotation of the rotating shaft 15. As a result, the shield 20 attached to the shield holding member 11 falls from the position where it falls down and blocks the level crossing to release the level crossing (arrow A direction), and the direction that descends from the raised standing position (arrow B). Direction).

  The shield holding member 11 has a cylindrical bar holder 12 for inserting and attaching the shield 20. The bar holder 12 is extended in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction in which the rotating shaft 15 extends at a position away from the rotating shaft 15, and the illustrated example has a pentagonal cross section. On the bottom portion 12 a in the bar holder 12, an end portion of the inserted shielding cane 20 is placed, and a shielding cane fixing member 13 for pressing the securing cane 20 against the inner wall of the bar holder 12 is disposed. The shield can fixing member 13 can fix the shield can 20 by pressing it against the inner wall on the side facing the bottom portion 12a by tightening the bolt 14 penetrating the bar holder 12 from the outside of the bar holder 12, and by loosening the bolt 14. It is possible to remove the shield 20 from the bar holder 12 by releasing the pressure on the shield 20.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the lock structure 50 is provided with a plurality of grips 51 that can be attached to and detached from the base 10 of the railroad crossing breaker 1, and grips 51 that are provided at a plurality of locations on the base 10 of the railroad crossing barrier 1. It is comprised from the mounting parts 52 and 53 for doing. The mounting part 52 and the mounting part 53 are formed in the same manner.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the grip 51 has a hexagonal metal bar shape in cross section, and can be rotated with a wrench. Further, an end portion to be mounted on the mounting portions 52 and 53 has a mounting screw portion 51a that is threaded on the outer surface.

  The plurality of mounting portions 52 and 53 on the base 10 side are screw holes 52 and 53 whose inner surfaces are threaded so as to be screwed with the mounting screw portion 51 a of the grip 51. Of these mounting portions 52 and 53, the mounting portion 52 provided on the front surface of the base 10 as shown in FIG. 1 rotates the cutoff holding member 11 when the grip 51 is attached. It is provided at the locking position where it interferes. In the illustrated example, when the shielding can 20 descends from the standing position, the end surface of the shielding retainer 11 that is about to rotate in the descending direction (arrow B direction) of the shielding can 20 is below the bar holder 12. One mounting portion 52 is provided at a locked position where the grip 51 is hit.

  In addition, the lock position which interferes with rotation of the cutoff holding member 11 is not restricted to the said position. Therefore, the mounting portion 52 may be provided at a plurality of different lock positions.

  In addition, the mounting portion 52 is provided so as to form a pair with the mounting portion 52 at a position spaced apart from the mounting portion 52 at substantially the same height on the same front surface as the mounting portion 52 provided on the front surface, and a pair of the mounting portion 52 is also provided on the back side, not shown. The mounting portions 52 may be provided, the grips 51 may be attached to the respective mounting portions, and these grips 51 may be used when the base body 10 is transported or lifted.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, a plurality of mounting portions 53 are also provided on both side surfaces of the base body 10. These mounting portions 53 are disposed at holding positions where the base body 10 can be balanced when the grip 51 is mounted and the base body 10 of the railroad crossing cutting machine 1 is lifted and held. In the illustrated example, a pair of mounting portions 53 are provided on both side surfaces of the base body 10 of the railroad crossing breaker 1. The pair of mounting portions 53 and 53 are both at the same height, and are near the center of the level of the railroad crossing breaker 1. In addition, both are located at a position that is substantially the same distance from the center line that vertically cuts the side surface. The mounting portion 53 is not limited to a pair on each side surface, and a plurality of pairs may be provided.

  Since the plurality of mounting portions 53 are arranged at positions that can be balanced when the grip 51 is mounted on the base body 10 and lifted, the type of the level crossing machine 1 is different and the position of the center of gravity of the base body 10 is different. The optimum holding position where the mounting portion 53 is provided is also different.

  Furthermore, the length, shape, and the like of the grip 51 to be attached to the plurality of attachment parts 52 and 53 may be appropriate for each type of the level crossing cutting machine 1 according to the outline shape of the base body 10.

Next, the operation will be described.
When the railroad crossing breaker 1 breaks down or when maintenance is performed on the railroad crossing barrier 1, the necessary work is performed after the power of the railroad crossing barrier 1 is turned off. At this time, if the shut-off can 20 is raised when the power of the railroad crossing breaker 1 is turned off, the shut-off can 20 is lowered after the power is turned off to interrupt the crossing. In addition, when a failure occurs in the state where the cutoff rail 20 is lowered to the position where the railroad crossing is interrupted, the cutoff rail 20 remains in the state where the railroad crossing is interrupted. Therefore, it is necessary to fix the shield 20 in the raised standing position.

  When the railroad crossing cutting machine 1 is to be maintained, the shield 20 is fixed in a state where the shield 20 is raised to the upright position. Further, when the cutoff bar 20 has been lowered to a position where the level crossing is cut off due to a failure, the cutoff bar 20 is raised by human power or the like until the bar holder 12 of the cutoff bar holding member 11 is higher than the mounting portion 52. Then, the shield 20 is fixed.

  When the cut-off can 20 is raised, the grip 51 is easily attached to the attachment portion 52 by screwing the attachment screw portion 51a of the grip 51 into the attachment portion 52 provided at the locking position of the base body 10 and screwing the attachment screw portion 51a. And can be securely attached.

  The shield holding member 11 to which the shield 20 is attached tends to rotate in the direction of arrow B that lowers the shield 20 by its own weight. However, since the end of the cutoff holder holding member 11 on the lower side of the bar holder 12 hits the grip 51 attached to the attachment portion 52 and is prevented from rotating, the cutoff can 20 cannot be lowered. Thereby, the shield 20 can be locked in the standing position, and maintenance can be performed or a failure can be repaired.

  When maintenance is performed or when it is necessary to lift or move the railroad crossing breaker 1 during repair of a failure, the grips are respectively attached to the mounting portions 53 provided at a plurality of holding positions on the side surface of the base body 10. If 51 is mounted | worn, the grip 51 can be used as a grip to hold when lifting the base | substrate 10 by an operator's human power. If the grip 51 is the same as the grip 51 mounted on the mounting portion 52 at the lock position, the parts can be shared, but the length, shape, and the like may be different.

  The mounting portions 53 provided at a plurality of holding positions other than the locking position can balance the base body 10 of the railroad crossing breaker 1 when the plurality of grips 51 mounted thereon are lifted and held. Thereby, the grip 51 can be grasped and lifted by a plurality of workers, and can be lifted or moved while holding the railroad crossing breaker 1 safely and easily.

  When it is no longer necessary to fix the shield 20 in the upright position or lift the base body 10 after the maintenance is completed or the trouble has been resolved, the grip 51 is twisted in the opposite direction. By turning it around, it can be easily removed from the mounting parts 52 and 53.

  As described above, according to the lock structure 50, it is possible to easily release the lock and the lock of the blocking can 20 without providing a dedicated locking device in the crossing cutting machine 1. Further, if the grip 51 is the same as the grip 51 used for the lock of the shield 20 by being attached to the mounting part 52, it can be placed in a plurality of holding positions if necessary for installation, breakdown, maintenance, etc. of the level crossing blocker 1. By attaching to the mounting part 53 provided, it can be used as a grip to hold when the railroad crossing breaker 1 is moved or lifted, improving the transportability of the railroad crossing barrier 1 and safety of carrying work. Can be improved.

  Moreover, the member which can be gripped when the same type of grip 51 is attached to the predetermined mounting portions 52 and 53 to lock the cutting bar 20 or when the base 10 of the railroad crossing machine 1 is moved. Therefore, the parts can be shared, the structure can be simplified, and the cost of the level crossing cutting machine 1 can be reduced.

  Further, since the grip 51 can be stored in another place when not in use, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the blocking device 20 is locked by mischief.
