Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は主としてトンネル築造時において、地上側からトンネル内に敷設された軌道の始端部上に搬入されるセグメント等の資材搬送台車を順次連結させたのち、この連結搬送台車をトンネル内に送り込み、資材の搬送後、空になった連結搬送台車を軌道の始端部にまで牽引して順次連結を解くようにした搬送台車の連結運行装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から、トンネルを掘削するシールド工法においては、シールド掘削機によって掘削されるトンネルの掘進に伴って該トンネル内にセグメント等の資材を搬入する必要があり、そのため、シールド掘削機の発進側立坑内を通じて昇降手段によって地上側から資材を積載した搬送台車を搬入し、この搬送台車を立坑の底部からトンネル内に敷設している軌道上に移し替えたのち、機関車によってトンネル内に搬入することが行われている。そして、資材の搬入後、空になった搬送台車を機関車によって上記立坑側にまで送り出したのち、この搬送台車を上記昇降手段によって地上側に搬出し、再び、資材を積載して立坑内に搬入している。
【0003】
このようなトンネル内への資材搬送作業において、地上から立坑を通じて順次軌道上に搬入される資材搬送台車の連結作業や、トンネル内から送り出した空の搬送台車同士の連結を解いて上記昇降手段側に送り込む作業等を人手に頼っていると、多大な労力を手間を要して作業能率が低下するばかりでなく、怪我等の事故の発生をひきおこす虞れがある。そのため、最近では資材の自動搬送システムが開発されている。
【0004】
この自動搬送システムは、軌道上で複数台連結した搬送台車を機関車により運搬するように構成した搬送台車運行装置において、上記軌道の下方にこの軌道と並行して該軌道の始端部から一定長さの下方軌道部を設け、この下方軌道部上に係合手段を介して上記搬送台車に着脱自在に連結するドーリ(自走機関車)を配設すると共に、各搬送台車に上記ドーリに設けている上記係合手段の作動により連動して搬送台車同士を着脱自在に連結させる連結器を設け、さらに、上記下方軌道部の始端部側方に機関車の待機部を設けて該待機部から上記軌道の始端部上に機関車を送り込むように構成している。
【0005】
そして、地上側から立坑内に搬入された資材を積載した搬送台車の下方にまで上記ドーリを下方軌道部上で移動させて上記係合手段を介してこの搬送台車と一体に連結したのち、ドーリをトンネル側に向かって移動させることにより、搬送台車を軌道上の所定位置まで送り出し、次いで、係合手段による搬送台車とドーリとの連結を解いたのち、ドーリを次の資材を積載した搬送台車の搬入位置まで戻して再び、その位置で係合手段を介してこの搬送台車と一体に連結し、この状態で先に送り出した搬送台車の位置まで移動して両搬送台車を連結器によって一体に連結させ、この作業を繰り返し行うことによって複数台の搬送台車を軌道上で連結させたのち、待機部から機関車を軌道上に搬入してこの機関車に上記ドーリを係合手段を介して連結し、最後尾の搬送台車まで走行させてこの搬送台車に該機関車を連結器により連結させ、この状態にして下方のドーリと上方の機関車との係合手段による連結を解いたのち、機関車により複数台の搬送台車をトンネル内に搬入している。
【0006】
また、トンネル内の所定場所まで資材を搬入したのち、空になった搬送台車を機関車により立坑側に送り出し、上記下軌道部上を走行するドーリを使用して搬送台車からの機関車の連結を解いたのち、該機関車を待機部に移動させ、しかるのち、ドーリによって搬送台車の連結を順次、解除して立坑内における地上側への搬出場所まで移動させている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記搬送台車の運行システムによれば、搬送台車同士及び搬送台車と機関車との連結や連結解除は、軌道の下方にこの軌道と並行して該軌道の始端部から一定長さの下方軌道部を設け、この下方軌道部上でドーリを走行させて該ドーリに設けている係合手段により行っているものであるから、システム全体が大規模となって設備費が嵩むといった問題点があり、さらに、ドーリによって搬送台車又は機関車を既に軌道上に送り出している搬送台車側に移動させて該搬送台車に連結器を介して一体に連結させる際に、搬送台車等が軌道上で微動した場合には連結器の連結位置にずれが生じて、連結作業が行えなくなる等の問題点があった。
【0009】
本発明はこのような問題点に鑑みてなされたもので、その目的とするところは、搬送台車同士や該搬送台車と機関車との連結、及び、機関車によるトンネル施工現場への資材の搬入後、空になった搬送台車を軌道端側に牽引、運行した後における搬送台車間の連結解除から搬送台車を順次軌道端に送り出す作業工程を簡単な装置によって確実且つ自動的に行えるようにした搬送台車の連結運行装置を提供するにある。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するために、本発明の請求項1に係る搬送台車の連結運行装置は、軌道の始端部側において搬送台車を順次連結器によって連結し、連結した複数台の搬送台車を機関車により運搬するように構成した搬送台車の連結運行装置であって、上記軌道の始端の延長方向に該始端から一定間隔を存して機関車の待機軌道部を敷設していると共に、軌道の上記始端とこの機関車待機軌道部との間の上記間隔部に、上面に上記軌道の延長方向に短軌道部を敷設しているトラバース台を該間隔部を横断する方向に往復動自在に配設し、このトラバース台を軌道側から離れる方向に横復動させてその短軌道部上に搬送台車を搬入させたのち、このトラバース台を元の位置まで横移動させ、機関車と搬送台車とを連結させて機関車により搬送台車を上記軌道上に送り込むように構成している。
【0011】
さらに、上記連結運行装置において、機関車の待機軌道部における機関車停止位置と、トラバース台に敷設している短軌道部における搬送台車停止位置と、軌道の始端部における搬送台車停止位置とに、機関車又は搬送台車をその位置に固定させ且つ固定を解除させる係留機構を配設していると共に、軌道の始端部下方とトラバース台の後端部側における短軌道部下方とに、上記係留機構によって定位置に停止している機関車と搬送台車との連結器と搬送台車同士の連結器とをそれぞれ連結、連結解除させる係脱機構を設置していることを特徴とする。
【0012】
請求項に係る発明は、上記係留機構の好ましい構造に関するものであって、機関車の待機軌道部における機関車停止位置と、トラバース台に敷設している短軌道部における搬送台車停止位置と、軌道の始端部における搬送台停止位置とに設けられた電動シリンダによって作動するピンからなり、このピンを搬送台車と機関車の下端部側面に設けている係留孔に係脱させるように構成している。
【0013】
また、請求項に係る発明は、搬送台車同士及び搬送台車と機関車とを連結する連結器の好ましい具体的な構造に関するであって、互いに一体に上下動し且つスプリングによって常時下方に押圧されている第1、第2垂直ロッドと、上記第1垂直ロッドを係脱させる係止孔とからなり、上記第1、第2垂直ロッドを搬送台車及び機関車の前端に設けている一方、係止孔を搬送台車の後端に設けてなる構造を有している。
【0014】
さらに、請求項に係る発明は、上記係脱機構の具体的な構造に関するものであって、この係脱機構はジャッキによって上下動する可動軸体からなり、この可動軸体の上動により該可動軸体の上端面で上記連結器の第2垂直ロッドを押し上げて第1垂直ロッドを係止孔から離脱させ、また、その状態から下動させることによって第1垂直ロッドを上記係止孔に挿入、係止させるように構成している。
【0015】
【作用】
搬送台車走行用軌道は立坑の底部からトンネル内を通じてセグメント等の資材施工現場まで敷設されてあり、資材を積載した搬送台車は地上から昇降設備によって立坑の底部上に配設したトラバース台の短軌道部上に載置されたのち、係留機構によって妄動しないように短軌道部上の所定位置に固定される。一方、機関車の待機軌道部上においても該機関車は係留機構によってその前端を上記トラバース台上の搬送台車の後端に連結器を介して連結させることができる所定位置に固定されている。
【0016】
この状態で上記トラバース台車を短軌道部の始端と機関車待機軌道部の前端との間に向かって横移動させることにより、該短軌道部の前後端を上記軌道の始端と機関車の待機軌道部とにそれぞれ連続させると、このトラバース台上の搬送台車の後端が待機軌道部上の機関車の前端に互いに連結器を介して正確に対向した状態となり、この状態から該連結器の下方の短軌道部側に設置している係脱機構によって連結器を結合させ、機関車と搬送台車とを連結させる。
【0017】
次いで、係留機構による機関車の固定と搬送台車の固定を解除したのち、機関車を待機軌道部上からトラバース台の短軌道部上を前進させて搬送台車をトラバース台の短軌道部上からトンネル側に向かって敷設している軌道の始端部上に移動させる。
【0018】
軌道の始端部側にも連結器を連結、解除させる係脱機構と搬送台車の係留機構とが配設されてあり、搬送台車を係留機構によって軌道の始端部上の所定位置に固定させると共にこの搬送台車と機関車とを連結させている連結器を係脱機構の上方に対向させた状態にして、この係脱機構を作動させることにより搬送台車と機関車との連結器の結合を解除し、しかるのち、機関車を後退させて待機軌道部における元の位置に復帰させ、その位置で係留機構により固定しておく。
【0019】
機関車が待機軌道部上の所定位置に固定させられると、トラバース台が資材を積載した次の搬送台車の地上からの搬入位置まで横移動して該搬送台車をトラバース台の短軌道部上に受け入れたのち、上記同様に係留機構によって搬送台車を短軌道部上に固定すると共に係脱機構の作動によって連結器を結合可能な状態にしておき、再び、トラバース台を軌道側に向かって横移動させて短軌道部の始端と機関車待機軌道部の前端との間に介在させ、上記係脱機構の作動によって連結器を結合させて機関車とこの搬送台車とを連結させる。
【0020】
この状態にして機関車と搬送台車とをそれぞれ固定させている係留機構を解除したのち、機関車を前進させて該機関車に連結している搬送台車を、先に軌道の始端部側に送り出されていて係留機構によりその位置で固定している上記搬送台車の後端に連結器を介して突き合わせ、該連結器の下方に設置している軌道側の係脱機構を作動させて連結器を結合させることよりこれらの搬送台車を一体に連結させる。
【0021】
さらに、次の資材を積載している搬送台車を連結させる場合には、前側の搬送台車を固定している係留機構を解除したのち、機関車を搬送台車の一台分だけ前進させて後側の搬送台車、即ち、機関車に直接連結している搬送台車を上記係留機構により固定し、しかるのち、機関車をこの後側の搬送台車から切り離したのち、上記同様に待機軌道部上に復帰させて係留機構により固定し、トラバース台を往復移動させて次の資材を積載している搬送台車を受け入れたのち、係留機構により固定させた状態で軌道と待機軌道部間に介在させ、係脱機構の作動により連結器を結合させて機関車と搬送台車とを連結したのち、係留機構を解除し、機関車を前進させて搬送台車を軌道の始端部上に送り出している最後尾の搬送台車に上記同様にして連結させる作業を繰り返し行えばよい。
【0022】
こうして、資材を積載している複数台の搬送台車を直列に連結させたのち、機関車を前進させてこれらの資材搬送台車列を軌道の終端部側におけるトンネル内の施工現場にまで搬送し、施工現場において搬送台車上の資材を降ろして搬送台車を空にする。
【0023】
空になった搬送台車列は機関車で軌道の始端部側にまで牽引され、トラバース台上に順次、送り込んで該トラバース台を横方向に往復移動させることにより、地上から立坑の底部にまで配設している上記昇降設備に移載させ、この昇降設備によって地上側に搬出する。
【0024】
即ち、機関車によって軌道の始端部側にまで送り出された搬送台車列において、最後尾から2台目の搬送台車を軌道の始端部側に配設している上記係留機構によって所定位置に固定したのち、該搬送台車と最後尾の搬送台車とを連結している連結器の結合を下方に設置している上記係脱機構によって解除し、しかるのち、機関車を待機軌道部上にまで後退させてこの機関車と連結している最後尾の搬送台車をトラバース台上の短軌道部上に送り込み、機関車を短軌道部側に配設している上記係留機構の位置に達した時に停止させる。
【0025】
そうすると、最後尾の搬送台車もトラバース台の短軌道部側に配設している係留機構の位置で停止すると共この搬送台車と機関車とを連結している連結器がトラバース台の後端部側に配設している係脱機構の上方に位置した状態となる。この状態にしてそれぞれの係留機構により機関車と搬送台車を固定したのち、上記係脱機構を作動させて機関車と搬送台車とを連結している連結器の結合を解除し、トラバース台を昇降設備の下端部まで横移動させて搬送台車を該昇降設備に移載させたのち、空になったトラバース台を軌道の始端と機関車待機軌道部との間に復帰させる。
【0026】
しかるのち、係留機構による機関車の固定を解いて該機関車をトラバース台上の短軌道部上を介して軌道の始端部側に走行させ、係留機構によって固定されている上記搬送台車の後端に連結器を介して突き合わせ、該連結器の下方に設置している軌道側の係脱機構を作動させて連結器を結合させることにより機関車と軌道上の最後尾の搬送台車とを連結させたのち、この搬送台車を固定している係留機構を解除する。
【0027】
次いで、機関車を搬送台車一台分の長さに相当する距離だけトラバース台側に後退させることによって、搬送台車列を一斉と同一距離だけ後退させ、該機関車に連結している最後尾の搬送台車と最後尾から2番目の搬送台車とを連結している連結器を係脱機構上に位置させる。
【0028】
そうすると、最後尾から2台目の搬送台車が係留機構に対向した位置に停止した状態となり、この係留機構によって該搬送台車をその位置で固定したのち上記係脱機構を作動させてこれらの搬送台車同士を連結している連結器の結合を解除し、しかるのち、機関車を待機軌道部上にまで後退させてこの機関車に連結している搬送台車をトラバース台上の短軌道部上に送り込み、機関車が待機軌道部側に配設している上記係留機構の位置に達した時に停止させる。
【0029】
この状態にすると、上述したように機関車に連結している搬送台車もトラバース台の短軌道部側に配設している係留機構の位置で停止すると共この搬送台車と機関車とを連結している連結器がトラバース台側に配設している係脱機構の上方に位置した状態となる。この状態にしてそれぞれの係留機構により機関車と搬送台車を固定したのち、係脱機構を作動させて連結器の結合を解除し、トラバース台を昇降設備の下端部まで横移動させて搬送台車を該昇降設備に移載させたのち、空になったトラバース台を軌道の始端と機関車短軌道部間に復帰させる。
【0030】
以下、機関車を軌道の始端側に移動させて最後尾側の搬送台車と連結させる工程と、この搬送台車の係留機構による固定を解いたのち、機関車を一定距離だけ後退させて該搬送台車に連結している次の搬送台車を係留機構により固定させる工程と、これらの搬送台車間の連結を解いたのち、機関車を待機軌道部上にまで後退させてこの機関車に連結している搬送台車をトラバース台上の短軌道部上に送り込み、機関車と該搬送台車とを係留機構により固定させる工程と、機関車と搬送台車との連結を解く工程と、トラバース台を昇降設備の下端部まで横移動させて搬送台車を該昇降設備に移載させる工程とを繰り返し行って全ての搬送台車を地上側に搬出するものである。
【0031】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に、本発明の具体的な実施の形態を図面について説明すると、図1、図2において、立坑Aの底部前壁側には築造中のトンネルTの始端が開口してあり、立坑Aの前部内からこのトンネルTの底面に沿ってトンネルTの覆工現場まで軌道1が敷設されていてこの軌道1上をセグメントS等の資材を積載した搬送台車2を走行させるように構成していると共に、立坑A内の前部内に敷設されているこの軌道1の始端から一定の間隔を存して該始端の延長線上における立坑Aの後部内に機関車6の待機軌道部5を敷設してあり、さらに、軌道1の始端とこの待機軌道部5の前端間の上記間隔部に、上面に上記軌道1の始端と待機軌道部5の前端間に介在させる短軌道部4を敷設しているトラバース台3を立坑Aの底部中央部において該間隔部を横断する方向に一側方に向かって横移動可能に配設している。
【0032】
上記トラバース台3は、立坑Aの底面における中央部から一側部にかけて立設固定している架台11上に、図3に示すように上記軌道1を直交する方向に横断短軌道12を敷設し、この横断短軌道12上にその下面に軸支している車輪3aを往復走行自在に支持させてあり、軌道1の始端と機関車6の上記待機軌道部5との間に介在した時に、その上面に敷設している上記短軌道部4の前後両端を軌道1の始端と待機軌道部5とに連続させ、軌道1の始端と待機軌道部5との間から立坑Aの一側方に移動した時に軌道1の始端と待機軌道部5とを分断するように構成している。
【0033】
なお、このトラバース台3はモータ駆動によって車輪3aを回転させることにより自走させるように構成しておいてもよいが、図においては、架台11にジャッキ13(図2に示す)を配設してこのジャッキ13の一端を架台11の一側端部に固定し、他端をトラバース台3に連結して該ジャッキ13の作動により横断短軌道12上で往復動させるように構成している。また、上記機関車6の待機軌道部5は架台11の後方側に立設、固定している架台11' 上に敷設されている。
【0034】
上記軌道1上を走行してトンネルT内に資材を搬入する各搬送台車2には、搬送台車同士を互いに連結させるための連結器7が設けられている。この連結器7は、図4、図5に示すように搬送台車2の後端中央部に前後に小間隔を存して並設されて一体に上下動する第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bと、搬送台車2の前端中央部に設けられた係止孔7cとからなる。
【0035】
上記第1垂直ロッド7aと第2垂直ロッド7bとの具体的な配設構造は、搬送台車2の後端中央部に突出部材14を後方に向かって突設し、この突出部材14に垂直固定筒15の下半部を挿嵌状態で一体に固着して該垂直固定筒15に第2垂直ロッド7bを上下摺動自在に挿通、支持させていると共にこの第2垂直ロッド7bを垂直固定筒15内に配設しているコイルスプリング16の弾発力によって常時下方に押圧して該第2垂直ロッド7bの下部を垂直固定筒15の下面から一定長さだけ下方に突出させている。
【0036】
さらに、第1垂直ロッド7aと第2垂直ロッド7bの上端間を連結部材17によって一体的に連結していると共に上記突出部材14の後端を上下に分離した二股部14' 、14' に形成してこの二股部14' 、14' に第1垂直ロッド7aを上下摺動自在に挿通させる挿通孔18を設けている。一方、上記係止孔7cは搬送台車2の前端中央部に前方に向かって突設している水平板片19に設けられてあり、この水平板片19は上記二股部14' 、14' 間に挿入可能な高さ位置に設けられている。なお、係止孔7cは第1垂直ロッド7aが挿通可能な径に形成されている。
【0037】
また、上記機関車6の前端中央部にも搬送台車2の前端中央部に設けている係止孔7cと同一形状で同一大きさの係止孔7cを設けた水平板片19を突設してあり、この係止孔7cと上記第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bとによって連結器7を構成している。なお、この機関車6には適所にその車輪の回転駆動機構や油圧ユニットを設置してあり、外部からの電気的指令によって軌道上を自走するように構成されている。
【0038】
一方、上記軌道1の始端部下方とトラバース台3の後端部側における短軌道部4の後端部下方とに、上記連結器7の第1垂直ロッド7aを係止孔7cに挿入、結合させたり、その結合を解除させるための係脱機構8を配設している。この係脱機構8は図1に示すように、軌道1の始端から前方に向かって搬送台車2の略一台分の長さ間隔を存した始端部における両側軌道間の下方と、トラバース台3上に敷設している短軌道部4の後端部における両側軌道間の下方とに固定縦筒8a(図4に示す)を配設し、この固定縦筒8aに可動軸体8bを上下動自在に挿通、支持させて固定縦筒8aの上端から突出した該可動軸体8bの上端に、上記連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bの下端面を受止する受止板8cを一体に固着してあり、さらに、固定縦筒8aに電動シリンダからなるジャッキ8dを一体に並設してこのジャッキ8dのロッドと固定縦筒8aから下方に突出した上記可動軸体8bの下端とを連結片8eを介して一体に連結し、ジャッキ8dの作動によって可動軸体8bを上下動させるように構成している。
【0039】
そして、可動軸体8bの上動により、その上端の係合部材8cで連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bをスプリング16の力に抗して押し上げてこの第2垂直ロッド7bと一体に上動する第1垂直ロッド7aを係止孔7cから上方に抜き取るように構成している一方、この状態から可動軸体8bを下動させることによって第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bを一体に下動させて第1垂直ロッド7aを上記係止孔7cに挿入、係止させるように構成している。
【0040】
さらに、図2に示すように、機関車6の待機軌道部5における機関車停止位置と、トラバース台3上に敷設している短軌道部4における搬送台車停止位置と、軌道1の始端部側における搬送台停止位置とに、上記連結器7により連結可能な位置で搬送台車2や機関車6を一旦、固定させておくための係留機構9を配設している。
【0041】
この係留機構9は、図6に示すように、軌道1と短軌道部4及び待機軌道部5の側方部にそれぞれ固定された水平台板上にこれらの軌道1、短軌道部4、待機軌道部5の上方側に向かって水平方向に進退自在に支持されたピン9aと、このピン9aを進退させる電動シリンダ9bとからなり、このピン9aを搬送台車2や機関車6の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cに挿入、係止させることによって搬送台車2や機関車6をその位置で走行不能に固定し、ピン9aを係留孔9cから離脱させることによって搬送台車2や機関車6を走行可能となるように構成している。
【0042】
また、図3に示すように、機関車6に光センサー10を取付けている一方、機関車待機軌道部5とトラバース台3の短軌道部4、及び軌道1の始端部との所定位置に反射板21を配設してあり、この反射板21を介して反射した光センサー10からの光を該光センサー10によって検出された時に機関車6を、機関車6と搬送台車2、及び搬送台車2同士が連結、連結解除される位置で停止させるための位置決め機構を構成している。
【0043】
一方、立坑Aの一側部には該立坑Aの底部と地上間に亘って昇降設備30が配設されている。この昇降設備30は、正面門形状のフレーム部31a の両側部に前方に向かって水平支持アーム部31b 、31b を一体に突設してなる昇降フレーム31を、地上側に設置したウインチ(図示せず)によって立坑Aの一側面に沿って立坑Aの底部と地上間に垂直状に敷設しているレール32上を昇降させるように構成している。
【0044】
次に、上記のように構成した搬送台車2の連結運行装置によって、地上側から上記昇降設備30により立坑A内に搬入された資材(セグメント)を積載している搬送台車2をトンネルT内に送り込み、しかるのち、空になった搬送台車2を順次上記昇降設備30側に送給するシステムについて説明すると、資材を積載した搬送台車2は地上側から上記昇降設備30の昇降フレーム31における水平支持アーム部31b 、31b 間に架設状態で支持されて立坑Aの底部一側にまで降下する。
【0045】
立坑Aの底部一側にはトラバース台3が待機しており、上記昇降フレーム31がこのトラバース台3上にまで降下すると、その水平支持アーム部31b 、31b 間で支持している搬送台車2の車輪2aをトラバース台3上の短軌道部4上に載せ、さらに、僅かに降下して搬送台車2の下面からその水平支持アーム部31b 、31b を下方に離脱させる。
【0046】
トラバース台3の短軌道部4上に移載された搬送台車2は、短軌道部4の側方部に配設している係留機構9のピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって押し進めることにより搬送台車2の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cに挿入、係止させて搬送台車2を短軌道部4上で妄りに移動しないように所定位置に固定すると共に、この固定後に、短軌道部4の後端部下方に配設している係脱機構8の可動軸体8bをジャッキ8dによって押し上げて、この可動軸体8bの上端に固着している受止板8cの上面を搬送台車2の後端に設けている連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bの下端面に当接させ、この状態からさらにジャッキ8dにより可動軸体8bを押し上げて第2垂直ロッド7bをコイルスプリング16に抗して第1垂直ロッド7aと一体的に上動させ、第1垂直ロッド7aの下端面が上記機関車6の前端に設けている係止孔7cよりも上方位置で停止させた状態にしておく。
【0047】
この状態にしてトラバース台3を横移動させて図7に示すように、軌道1と機関車待機軌道部5との間に介在させる一方、上記昇降設備30の昇降フレーム31を地上にまで上昇させて次の資材を積載した搬送台車2の搬入に備える。
【0048】
上記待機軌道部5上で待機している機関車6も、該待機軌道部5の側方部に配設している係留機構9によって待機軌道部5上の所定位置に固定されている。即ち、この係留機構9のピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって押し進めることにより機関車6の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cに挿入、係止させることにより短軌道部4上で機関車6が妄りに移動しないように固定されている。
【0049】
この機関車6の固定位置と上記トラバース台3上の搬送台車2の固定位置は、互いに連結器7、即ち、機関車6の前端に設けている係止孔6cと搬送台車2の後端に設けている上記第1垂直ロッド7aとが結合可能な位置であり、トラバース台3が軌道1と機関車待機軌道部5間にまで横移動する前に、上述したように、第1垂直ロッド7aが係脱機構8によって係止孔7cよりも上方位置に保持されている。
【0050】
従って、トラバース台3が立坑Aの一側方から軌道1と機関車待機軌道部5間にまで横移動してその短軌道部4の前後端を軌道1と機関車待機軌道部5とに連続させた状態にすると、トラバース台3上に固定されている搬送台車2の後端に設けている上記第1垂直ロッド7aが機関車6の前端に設けている係止孔7cの垂直上方に位置することになり、この状態からジャッキ8bにより可動軸体8bを下動させて第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bを元の位置まで一体的に降下させると、第1垂直ロッド7aが係止孔7cに挿入、結合し、連結器7を介して機関車6の前端に搬送台車2が連結される(図7、図8参照)。
【0051】
こうして、機関車6と搬送台車2とが連結すると、短軌道部4の側方部に配設している係留機構9のピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって後退させることにより搬送台車2の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cから離脱させて搬送台車2の固定を解くと共に、待機軌道部5の側方部に配設している係留機構9もそのピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって後退させることにより機関車6の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cから離脱させて機関車6の固定を解く。
【0052】
しかるのち、機関車6を待機軌道部5上からトラバース台3の短軌道部4上を通過してトンネル側に向かって敷設している軌道1の始端部上にまで走行させると、機関車6に装着している光センサ10からの光が軌道1の始端部における所定位置に配設している反射板21に反射して光センサ10に検出され、機関車6と搬送台車2とを連結している連結器7における第2垂直ロッド7bが軌道1の始端部側に配設している係脱機構8の可動軸体8bの垂直上方に達した位置で機関車6が停止する(図9参照)。この時、搬送台車2の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cも軌道1の始端部側に設けている係留機構9のピン9aと同一水平線上で対向した状態となる。
【0053】
この状態にして係留機構9のピン9aを電動シリンダ9bの作動により押し進めて搬送台車2の係留孔9cに挿入、係止させることにより搬送台車2をその位置で妄動しないように固定し、しかるのち、係脱機構8の可動軸体8bをジャッキ8dにより押し上げてこの搬送台車2と機関車6とを連結させている連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bの下端面にその受止板8cを当接させると共にさらに押し上げることにより第2垂直ロッド7bをコイルスプリング16に抗して第1垂直ロッド7aと一体的に上動させ、第1垂直ロッド7aを機関車6側の係止孔7cから上方に離脱させる。
【0054】
こうして、搬送台車2と機関車6との連結器7の結合を解除し、機関車6をトラバース台3側に後退させることによって搬送台車2の後端側に配設している上記第1垂直ロッド7aの下方から機関車6の前端側に設けている上記係止孔7cを水平方向に離間させる一方、係脱機構8の可動軸体8bは下動させことなく、第1垂直ロッド7aをその下端面が係止孔7cよりも上方位置で停止させておき、次の搬送台車2との連結に待機させておく。
【0055】
一方、搬送台車2との連結を解除された機関車6は後退してトラバース台3上の短軌道部4から待機軌道部5上の元の位置に復帰し、上記同様に、その位置に配設している上記係留機構9のピン9aを機関車6の係留孔9cに係止させることによって固定しておく(図10参照)。
【0056】
待機軌道部5上の所定位置に機関車6が固定されたのち、トラバース台3が立坑Aの一側部の昇降設備30の下方にまで横移動し、地上から立坑A内に昇降設備30の昇降フレーム31によって送り込まれてくる資材を積載した次の搬送台車2を上記同様にしてその短軌道部4上に受け取り、上記同様にしてトラバース台3上の短軌道部4の側方に配設している係留機構9のピン9aを搬送台車2の係留孔9cに挿入、係止させることによって搬送台車2を固定すると共に、この固定後に、短軌道部4の後端部下方に配設している係脱機構8の可動軸体8bをジャッキ8dによって押し上げて、上記同様に、搬送台車2の後端に設けている連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bを上動させ、第1垂直ロッド7aの下端面が上記機関車6の前端に設けている係止孔7cよりも上方位置で停止させた状態にしておく。
【0057】
しかるのち、トラバース台3を横移動させて図11に示すように、軌道1と機関車待機軌道部5との間に介在させると共に、搬送台車2の後端側に設けている上記第1垂直ロッド7aを機関車6の前端側の係止孔7cの垂直上方に位置させ、この状態からジャッキ8bにより可動軸体8bを下動させて第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bを元の位置まで一体的に降下させることにより、第1垂直ロッド7aを係止孔7cに挿入、結合させて、この連結器7を介して機関車6の前端に搬送台車2を連結させる。
【0058】
こうして、機関車6と搬送台車2とを連結させたのち、短軌道部4の側方部に配設している係留機構9のピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって後退させることにより搬送台車2の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cから離脱させて搬送台車2の固定を解くと共に、待機軌道部5の側方部に配設している係留機構9もそのピン9aを電動シリンダ9bによって後退させることにより機関車6の下端部側面に設けている係留孔9cから離脱させて機関車6の固定を解く。
【0059】
次いで、図12に示すように、機関車6を待機軌道部5上からトラバース台3の短軌道部4上を走行させ、この機関車6に連結している搬送台車2を軌道1の始端部上に搬入させてその前端に設けている係止孔7cが先に軌道1の始端部上に送り込んだ搬送台車2の後端に達した時に、機関車6に装着している光センサ10からの光が反射板21から反射するのを検出してその位置で停止させ、搬入した搬送台車2の前端係止孔7cを、先に送り込んだ搬送台車2の後端に設けている上記第1垂直ロッド7aの垂直下方に位置させる。
【0060】
なお、この第1垂直ロッド7aは上述したように、その下方に配設している係脱機構8の可動軸体8bを下動させことなく、一定の高さまで第2垂直ロッド7bを押し上げた状態に保持されてあり、従って、第1垂直ロッド7aをその下端面が係止孔7cよりも上方位置で停止させた状態で待機しているから、次に送り込む搬送台車2の前端係止孔7cを第1垂直ロッド7aの垂直下方に位置させることができるものであるが、先に軌道1の始端部上に送り込んだ搬送台車2と機関車6との連結を解除したのち、その搬送台車2の第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7cを元の位置まで降下させておき、機関車6によって次の搬送台車2が軌道1の始端部上に送り込まれる時に、再び係脱機構8を作動させて第1垂直ロッド7aを係止孔7cよりも上方の位置まで押し上げるようにしてもよい。
【0061】
上述したように、軌道1の始端部上で固定している先に送り込んだ搬送台車2の後端に設けている第1垂直ロッド7aの下方に次に送り込んだ搬送台車2の前端係止孔7cを位置させた状態でしたのち、係脱機構8を作動させてその可動軸体8bを下動させ、この可動軸体8bの上端支持板8cによって受止されている上記第1垂直ロッド7aをコイルスプリング17の力により押し下げて上記係止孔7cに挿入、結合させることにより、前後搬送台車2、2同士を一体に連結する。
【0062】
次いで、さらに次の資材を積載している搬送台車2を後続させる場合には、係留機構9による前側の搬送台車2の固定を解いたのち、機関車6を搬送台車2の一台分だけ前進させて後側の搬送台車2、即ち、機関車6に直接連結している搬送台車2を上記係留機構9により固定し、しかるのち、機関車6とこの機関車6に連結している搬送台車2との連結器7をその下方の係脱機構8の作動によって上記同様に解除し、機関車6のみを待機軌道部5上に復帰させてその位置で係留機構9により固定し、トラバース台3を一側方に横移動させて次の資材を積載している搬送台車2を昇降設備30の昇降フレーム31から受け取ったのち、係留機構9により固定させた状態で軌道1と待機軌道部5間に介在させ、上記同様に係脱機構8の作動により連結器7を結合させて機関車6と該搬送台車2とを連結したのち係留機構9を解除し、機関車6を前進させて搬送台車2を軌道1の始端部上に送り出している最後尾の搬送台車2に上記同様にして連結させる作業を繰り返し行えばよい。
【0063】
こうして、資材を積載している複数台の搬送台車2を直列に連結させたのち、最後尾側に連結している機関車6を前進させてこれらの資材搬送台車列を軌道1の終端部側におけるトンネル内の施工現場にまで搬送し、施工現場において各搬送台車2上の資材を降ろして搬送台車を空にする。
【0064】
次に、空になった搬送台車2を順次切り離してトラバース台3上を介して昇降設備30側に移載させる手順を説明する。まず、図14、図15に示すように空になった搬送台車列を機関車6によって軌道1の始端部上にまで牽引し、機関車6に連結している1番目の搬送台車2とこの搬送台車2に後続する2番目の搬送台車2とを連結している連結器7が軌道1の始端部側に配設している上記係脱機構8の上方に達した時に機関車6を停止させる。
【0065】
なお、この位置での機関車6の停止は、上記同様に該機関車6に装着している光センサ10からの光が軌道1上の所定位置に配設している反射板21から反射するのを検出することにより行われる。また、この停止状態においては、軌道1の始端部側方に配設している係留機構9のピン9aが上記2番目の搬送台車2の係留孔9cに対向する。
【0066】
この状態にして、係留機構9を作動させてそのピン9cを2番目の搬送台車2の係留孔9cに挿入、係止させることにより該搬送台車2をその位置で固定させたのち、1番目と2番目との搬送台車2を連結している連結器7をその下方に配設している上記係脱機構8によって解除する。即ち、係脱機構8の可動軸体8bを上動させてその上端支持板8cによって連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bをコイルスプリング17の力に抗して押し上げることにより第1垂直ロッド7aを一体に上動させて1番目の搬送台車2の前端に設けている係止孔7cから上方に抜き取る。
【0067】
そうすると、係止孔7cを設けている水平板片19が、第1垂直ロッド7aの挿通孔18を設けている2番目の搬送台車2の後端から突設した上下二股部14' 、14' 間から後方(立坑側)に離脱可能となり、この状態にして機関車6をトラバース台3上の短軌道部4を通じて図16に示すように、待機軌道部5上にまで後退させてこの機関車6と連結している1番目(最後尾)の搬送台車2をトラバース台3上の短軌道部4上に送り込み、この搬送台車2と機関車6とをそれぞれの位置に配設している上記係留機構9、9によって固定する。
【0068】
これらの搬送台車2と機関車6とを固定位置に位置させた状態では、これらの搬送台車2と機関車6とを連結している連結器7がトラバース台3の短軌道部4における後端部下方に配設している係脱機構8の上方に位置することになり、この係脱機構8の可動軸体8bを上動させてその上端支持板8cによって連結器7の搬送台車2側に配設している第2垂直ロッド7bをコイルスプリング17の力に抗して押し上げることにより第1垂直ロッド7aを一体に上動させ、機関車6側の係止孔7cから上方に離脱させて連結を解く。
【0069】
しかるのち、トラバース台3を昇降設備30側にまで横移動させ、その上に載置している上記搬送台車2を係留機構9による固定を解いて昇降フレーム31に移載させたのち、空になったトラバース台3を軌道1の始端と機関車待機軌道部間に復帰させる(図17、図18参照)。一方、昇降フレーム31上に移載した搬送台車2は昇降設備30によって地上側に搬出され、次の資材の搬入に供する。
【0070】
次いで、係留機構9による機関車6の固定を解いたのち、図19に示すように、機関車6を軌道1の始端部側に走行させて係留機構9によって固定されている次の最後尾(上記2番目)の搬送台車2にまで移動させ、この機関車6の前端に突設している係止孔7cを設けた水平板片19を最後尾の上記搬送台車2の後端に突設している上下二股部14' 、14' 間に突き合わせ状に挿入する。この時、上下二股部14' 、14' の挿通孔18に挿通していた第1垂直ロッド7aは、機関車6がこの搬送台車2の位置まで到達する前にその下方の係脱機構8の可動軸体8bの上動によって挿通孔18から上方に抜き取られており、水平板片19が上下二股部14' 、14' 間に挿入したのち、可動軸体8bを下動させることにより、第1、第2垂直ロッド7a、7bを上記同様に一体に下動させて第1垂直ロッド7aを係止孔7cに挿入、結合させる。
【0071】
このように連結器7を介して機関車6を搬送台車2に連結したのち、この搬送台車2を固定している係留機構9を解除する。次いで、該搬送台車2に後続する次の搬送台車2がある場合には、機関車6を搬送台車2の一台分の長さに相当する距離だけ後退させて搬送台車列を一斉に同一距離だけ後方に移動させ、機関車6に連結している搬送台車2の次の搬送台車2の後端に設けている連結器7の第2垂直ロッド7bを上記係脱機構8の垂直上方に位置させると共に係留孔9cを係留機構9のピン9aに対向させる。
【0072】
しかるのち、係留機構9の位置で停止しているこの最後尾から2番目の搬送台車2を係留機構9によって固定したのち、上記係脱機構8を作動させて、上記同様に最後尾と最後尾から2番目の搬送台車2、2間を連結している連結器7を解除し、再び、機関車6を待機軌道部5上にまで移動させてこの機関車6に連結している搬送台車2をトラバース台3の短軌道部4上に位置させ、これらの搬送台車2と機関車6とをその位置で、それぞれ係留機構9、9により上記同様に一旦固定する。
【0073】
次いで、これらの搬送台車2と機関車6とを連結している連結器7を、トラバース台3の短軌道部4における後端部下方に配設している係脱機構8によって上記同様にして解除し、トラバース台3を昇降設備30側にまで横移動させてその上に載置している上記搬送台車2を係留機構9による固定を解いて昇降フレーム31に移載させたのち、空になったトラバース台3を軌道1の始端と機関車待機軌道部間に復帰させる。
【0074】
以下、機関車6を軌道1の始端側に移動させて次の搬送台車2と連結器7を介して連結させる工程と、上記搬送台車2の係留機構9による固定を解除したのち機関車6を搬送台車2の長さに相当する距離だけ後退させて搬送台車列を一斉に同一距離だけ後方に移動させる工程と、機関車6から2番目の搬送台車2を係留機構9により固定する工程と、機関車6に連結している搬送台車2とこの2番目の搬送台車2との連結を解く工程と、機関車6を待機軌道部5上にまで後退させて搬送台車2をトラバース台3の短軌道部4上に位置させ、機関車6と搬送台車2とを係留機構9、9によりそれぞれ固定する工程と、機関車6と搬送台車2との連結を解く工程と、トラバース台3を昇降設備30の下端部まで横移動させて搬送台車2を該昇降設備30に移載させたのちトラバース台3を元の位置まで復帰させる工程とを繰り返し行って全ての搬送台車を地上側に搬出するものである。
【0075】
【発明の効果】
以上のように本発明の搬送台車の連結運行装置によれば、請求項1に記載したように、軌道の始端部側において搬送台車を順次連結器によって連結し、連結した複数台の搬送台車を機関車により運搬するように構成した搬送台車の連結運行装置であって、上記軌道の始端の延長方向に該始端から一定間隔を存して機関車の待機軌道部を敷設していると共に、軌道の上記始端とこの機関車待機軌道部との間の上記間隔部に、上面に上記軌道の延長方向に短軌道部を敷設しているトラバース台を該間隔部を横断する方向に往復動自在に配設し、このトラバース台を軌道側から離れる方向に横復動させてその短軌道部上に搬送台車を搬入させたのち、このトラバース台を元の位置まで横移動させ、機関車と搬送台車とを連結させて機関車により搬送台車を上記軌道上に送り込むように構成しているので、トラバース台の往復横移動によって該トラバース台の短軌道部上に載せて軌道と機関車待機軌道部との間に搬入される資材を積載した搬送台車を、待機軌道部に待機している機関車をトラバース台の短軌道部上を介して軌道側に走行させることによって、順次確実且つ能率よく軌道側に搬入して連結させることができる。
【0076】
同様に、空になった搬送台車を機関車によって軌道の始端部上に搬出したのち、順次切り離して機関車により一台ずつ、該機関車を待機軌道部上にまで後退させることにより上記トラバース台の短軌道部上に送り込むことができ、その位置で機関車と搬送台車との連結を解いてトラバース台を横方向に往復動させることにより、搬送台車を簡単且つ能率よく所定場所まで送り出すことができる。
【0077】
上記のように、機関車によって直接、搬送台車を移動させて搬送台車を順次連結させたり、その連結の解除を行うことができるので、装置全体が簡素化して設備費の低減を図ることができる。
【0078】
さらに、機関車の待機軌道部における機関車停止位置と、トラバース台に敷設している短軌道部における搬送台車停止位置と、軌道の始端部における搬送台停止位置とに、機関車又は搬送台車をその位置に固定させ且つ固定を解除させる係留機構を配設しているので、係留機構によって機関車や搬送台車を連結位置や連結解除位置に一旦、正確に固定しておくことができると共に、軌道上での機関車や搬送台車の妄動を防止して連結作業や連結解除作業が円滑且つ確実に行うことができる。
【0079】
その上、軌道の始端部下方とトラバース台の後端部側における短軌道部下方とに、上記係留機構によって定位置に停止している機関車と搬送台車との連結器と搬送台車同士の連結器とをそれぞれ連結、連結解除させる係脱機構を設置しているので、機関車によって搬送台車を係留機構の位置まで移動させると、連結器が自動的に係留機構の垂直上方に位置した状態となり、この係脱機構によって連結器の連結、連結解除が容易に且つ正確に行うことができる。
【0080】
上記係留機構は、請求項に記載したように、機関車の待機軌道部における機関車停止位置と、トラバース台に敷設している短軌道部における搬送台車停止位置と、軌道の始端部における搬送台停止位置とに設けられた電動シリンダによって作動するピンからなり、このピンを搬送台車と機関車の下端部側面に設けている係留孔に係脱させるように構成しているので、構造が簡単で装置全体の低減化を図ることができるばかりでなく、ピンと係留孔との係止によって機関車や搬送台車の固定を正確な位置に確実に行えるものである。
【0081】
また、搬送台車同士及び搬送台車と機関車とを連結する連結器は、請求項に記載したように、互いに一体に上下動し且つスプリングによって常時下方に押圧されている第1、第2垂直ロッドと、上記第1垂直ロッドを係脱させる係止孔とからなり、上記第1、第2垂直ロッドを搬送台車の後端に設けている一方、係止孔を搬送台車及び機関車の前端に設けているものであるから、第2垂直ロッドを押し上げることによって第1垂直ロッドを一体に所定位置まで上動させてその下方に係止孔を位置させることができ、この状態態にして第1、第2垂直ロッドを下動させることにより第1垂直ロッドに係止孔を簡単に係止させることができ、しかも、係止孔は搬送台車や機関車の前端側に設けているので、第1垂直ロッドから係止孔を離脱させたのち、第1垂直ロッドや第2垂直ロッドに邪魔されることなく搬送台車や機関車を搬送台車列から離間させることができる。
【0082】
一方、上記係脱機構は、請求項に記載したように、ジャッキによって上下動する可動軸体からなり、この可動軸体の上動により該可動軸体の上端面で連結器の第2垂直ロッドを押し上げて第1垂直ロッドを係止孔から離脱させ、また、その状態から下動させることによって第1垂直ロッドを上記係止孔に挿入、係止させるように構成しているので、簡単な機構によって連結器の連結、連結解除が自動的に行うことができる。

The transport truck running track is laid from the bottom of the shaft to the material construction site such as the segment through the tunnel, and the transport cart loaded with material is a short traverse of the traverse base placed on the bottom of the shaft by the lifting equipment from the ground After being placed on the part, it is fixed at a predetermined position on the short track part by the mooring mechanism so as not to reluctantly move. On the other hand, the locomotive is also fixed on the locomotive standby track portion at a predetermined position where the front end of the locomotive can be connected to the rear end of the transport carriage on the traverse base via a connector.
[0016]
In this state, the traverse carriage is laterally moved between the start end of the short track portion and the front end of the locomotive standby track portion, whereby the front and rear ends of the short track portion are moved to the start end of the track and the standby track of the locomotive. And the rear end of the transport carriage on the traverse base is accurately opposed to the front end of the locomotive on the standby track section via a coupler. The locomotive and the transport cart are coupled by coupling the coupler by an engagement / disengagement mechanism installed on the short track section side.
[0017]
Next, after the anchoring of the locomotive by the mooring mechanism and the fixing of the transport carriage are released, the locomotive is advanced over the short trajectory section of the traverse base from the standby trajectory section, and the transport carriage is tunneled from the short trajectory section of the traverse base. Move to the beginning of the track laid out to the side.
[0018]
An engaging / disengaging mechanism for connecting and releasing the coupler and a mooring mechanism for the transport carriage are also arranged on the start end side of the track, and the transport cart is fixed at a predetermined position on the start end portion of the track by the mooring mechanism. With the coupler that connects the transport carriage and the locomotive facing the upper side of the engagement / disengagement mechanism, the coupling between the transport carriage and the locomotive is released by operating this engagement / disengagement mechanism. Thereafter, the locomotive is moved backward to return to the original position in the standby track portion, and fixed at that position by the mooring mechanism.
[0019]
When the locomotive is fixed at a predetermined position on the standby track, the traverse base moves sideways to the carry-in position from the ground of the next transport cart loaded with materials, and the transport cart is placed on the short track portion of the traverse base. After receiving, the carriage is fixed on the short track part by the mooring mechanism and the coupler can be connected by the operation of the detachment mechanism in the same manner as described above, and the traverse table is moved laterally again toward the track side. Thus, the locomotive is interposed between the start end of the short track portion and the front end of the locomotive standby track portion, and the coupling mechanism is coupled by the operation of the engagement / disengagement mechanism to connect the locomotive and the transport carriage.
[0020]
After releasing the mooring mechanism that fixes the locomotive and the transport carriage in this state, the locomotive is moved forward and the transport carriage connected to the locomotive is first sent to the start end side of the track.

[0024]
That is, in the transport carriage train sent to the start end side of the track by the locomotive, the second transport cart from the end is fixed at a predetermined position by the mooring mechanism disposed on the start end side of the track. After that, the coupling of the coupler connecting the transporting carriage and the last transporting carriage is released by the above-described engagement / disengagement mechanism installed below, and then the locomotive is retracted to the standby track section. The last transport cart connected to the lever locomotive is fed onto the short track portion on the traverse base and stopped when the locomotive reaches the position of the mooring mechanism disposed on the short track portion side. .
[0025]

[0043]
On the other hand, on one side of the shaft A, an elevating equipment 30 is disposed between the bottom of the shaft A and the ground. The lifting equipment 30 includes a winch (not shown) in which a lifting frame 31 formed by projecting horizontal support arm portions 31b and 31b integrally projecting forward on both sides of a front gate-shaped frame portion 31a is installed on the ground side. 2), the rails 32 are vertically moved between the bottom of the shaft A and the ground along one side surface of the shaft A.
[0044]
Next, the transport cart 2 loaded with the material (segment) carried into the shaft A by the lifting equipment 30 from the ground side is moved into the tunnel T by the connecting operation device of the transport cart 2 configured as described above. Next, a description will be given of a system that sequentially feeds empty transport carts 2 to the lifting / lowering equipment 30 side. The transport carts 2 loaded with materials are supported horizontally on the lifting frame 31 of the lifting / lowering equipment 30 from the ground side. It is supported between the arm portions 31b and 31b in a erected state and descends to the bottom side of the shaft A.
[0045]
A traverse base 3 stands by on the bottom side of the vertical shaft A. When the elevating frame 31 is lowered onto the traverse base 3, the transport carriage 2 supported between the horizontal support arm portions 31b and 31b is provided. The wheel 2a is placed on the short track part 4 on the traverse base 3, and further lowered slightly so that the horizontal support arm parts 31b, 31b are separated downward from the lower surface of the transport carriage 2.
[0046]
The transport carriage 2 transferred onto the short track portion 4 of the traverse base 3 is moved by pushing the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 disposed on the side portion of the short track portion 4 by the electric cylinder 9b. The carriage 2 is inserted into and locked in the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the lower end of the trolley to fix the transport carriage 2 at a predetermined position so that it does not move loosely on the short track 4, and after this fixing, The movable shaft body 8b of the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 disposed below the rear end portion is pushed up by the jack 8d, and the upper surface of the receiving plate 8c fixed to the upper end of the movable shaft body 8b is placed behind the transport carriage 2. The second vertical rod 7b of the connector 7 provided at the end is brought into contact with the lower end surface of the second vertical rod 7b. From this state, the movable shaft body 8b is further pushed up by the jack 8d, and the second vertical rod 7b is opposed to the coil spring 16 1 The vertical rod 7a is moved upward integrally, and the lower end surface of the first vertical rod 7a is The locomotive 6 is stopped at a position above the locking hole 7c provided at the front end.
[0047]
In this state, the traverse base 3 is moved laterally and interposed between the track 1 and the locomotive standby track portion 5 as shown in FIG. 7, while the lifting frame 31 of the lifting equipment 30 is raised to the ground. To prepare for the delivery of the transport cart 2 loaded with the next material.
[0048]
The locomotive 6 waiting on the standby track portion 5 is also fixed at a predetermined position on the standby track portion 5 by a mooring mechanism 9 disposed on a side portion of the standby track portion 5. That is, by pushing the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 by the electric cylinder 9b into the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the lower end portion of the locomotive 6, the locomotive 6 is disengaged on the short track portion 4. It has been fixed so as not to move.
[0049]
The fixed position of the locomotive 6 and the fixed position of the transport carriage 2 on the traverse base 3 are respectively connected to the coupling hole 7, that is, the locking hole 6 c provided at the front end of the locomotive 6 and the rear end of the transport carriage 2. As described above, the first vertical rod 7a is a position where the first vertical rod 7a provided can be coupled, and before the traverse base 3 moves laterally between the track 1 and the locomotive standby track portion 5, as described above. Is held above the locking hole 7c by the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8.
[0050]
Therefore, the traverse base 3 moves laterally from one side of the shaft A to the space between the track 1 and the locomotive standby track portion 5, and the front and rear ends of the short track portion 4 are continuously connected to the track 1 and the locomotive standby track portion 5. In this state, the first vertical rod 7a provided at the rear end of the transport carriage 2 fixed on the traverse base 3 is positioned vertically above the locking hole 7c provided at the front end of the locomotive 6. In this state, when the movable shaft 8b is moved downward by the jack 8b and the first and second vertical rods 7a and 7b are integrally lowered to the original position, the first vertical rod 7a is locked. The transport carriage 2 is connected to the front end of the locomotive 6 via the coupler 7 through insertion and coupling into the hole 7c (see FIGS. 7 and 8).
[0051]
Thus, when the locomotive 6 and the transport carriage 2 are connected, the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 disposed on the side of the short track portion 4 is moved backward by the electric cylinder 9b, whereby the side surface of the lower end of the transport carriage 2 is obtained. The anchoring mechanism 9 disposed in the side portion of the standby track portion 5 is also retracted by the electric cylinder 9b while the carriage 2 is released from the mooring hole 9c provided in the door and unfixed. The locomotive 6 is released from the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the lower end portion of the locomotive 6, and the locomotive 6 is fixed.
[0052]
After that, when the locomotive 6 travels from the standby track portion 5 over the short track portion 4 of the traverse base 3 to the start end portion of the track 1 laid toward the tunnel side, the locomotive 6 The light from the optical sensor 10 mounted on the rail is reflected by the reflecting plate 21 disposed at a predetermined position on the starting end of the track 1 and detected by the optical sensor 10, and the locomotive 6 and the transport carriage 2 are connected. The locomotive 6 stops at a position where the second vertical rod 7b in the connecting coupler 7 reaches the vertically upper side of the movable shaft body 8b of the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 provided on the starting end side of the track 1 (see FIG. 9). At this time, the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the lower end of the transport carriage 2 is also opposed to the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 provided on the starting end side of the track 1 on the same horizontal line.
[0053]
In this state, the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 is pushed forward by the operation of the electric cylinder 9b, and is inserted into and locked in the mooring hole 9c of the transport carriage 2, thereby fixing the transport carriage 2 so as not to move at that position. The movable shaft 8b of the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 is pushed up by the jack 8d, and the receiving plate 8c is applied to the lower end surface of the second vertical rod 7b of the coupler 7 that connects the transport carriage 2 and the locomotive 6 to each other. The second vertical rod 7b is moved upward integrally with the first vertical rod 7a against the coil spring 16 by being brought into contact with and further pushed up, and the first vertical rod 7a is moved upward from the locking hole 7c on the locomotive 6 side. Let me leave.
[0054]
In this way, the coupling of the coupler 7 between the transport carriage 2 and the locomotive 6 is released, and the locomotive 6 is moved backward to the traverse base 3 side to dispose the first vertical above the transport carriage 2. The locking hole 7c provided on the front end side of the locomotive 6 is separated from the lower side of the rod 7a in the horizontal direction, while the movable shaft body 8b of the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 is not moved downward, and the first vertical rod 7a is moved downward. The lower end surface is stopped at a position above the locking hole 7c, and is kept waiting for the next connection with the transport carriage 2.
[0055]
On the other hand, the locomotive 6 that has been disconnected from the transport carriage 2 moves backward and returns to the original position on the standby track section 5 from the short track section 4 on the traverse table 3, and is arranged at that position in the same manner as described above. The pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 is fixed by being locked to the mooring hole 9c of the locomotive 6 (see FIG. 10).
[0056]
After the locomotive 6 is fixed at a predetermined position on the standby track part 5, the traverse base 3 moves laterally to the lower side of the lifting equipment 30 on one side of the shaft A, and the lifting equipment 30 is moved from the ground into the shaft A. The next transport carriage 2 loaded with the material fed by the elevating frame 31 is received on the short track portion 4 in the same manner as described above, and arranged on the side of the short track portion 4 on the traverse table 3 in the same manner as described above. The pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 is inserted and locked into the mooring hole 9c of the transport carriage 2 to fix the transport carriage 2, and after this fixing, it is disposed below the rear end of the short track portion 4. The movable shaft body 8b of the engaging / disengaging mechanism 8 is pushed up by the jack 8d, and the second vertical rod 7b of the coupler 7 provided at the rear end of the transport carriage 2 is moved up as described above to move the first vertical rod The lower end surface of 7a is above the locking hole 7c provided at the front end of the locomotive 6. Keep the state of being stopped at the location.
[0057]
Thereafter, the traverse base 3 is moved laterally to be interposed between the track 1 and the locomotive standby track portion 5 as shown in FIG. The rod 7a is positioned vertically above the locking hole 7c on the front end side of the locomotive 6, and from this state, the movable shaft body 8b is moved downward by the jack 8b to move the first and second vertical rods 7a, 7b to their original positions. The first vertical rod 7a is inserted into and coupled to the locking hole 7c, and the transport carriage 2 is connected to the front end of the locomotive 6 via the connector 7.
[0058]
After connecting the locomotive 6 and the transport carriage 2 in this way, the lower end of the transport carriage 2 is moved by retracting the pin 9a of the mooring mechanism 9 disposed on the side of the short track portion 4 by the electric cylinder 9b. The carriage 9 is released from the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the unit to unfix the carriage 2, and the mooring mechanism 9 disposed on the side of the standby track 5 is also retracted by the electric cylinder 9b. As a result, the locomotive 6 is released from the mooring hole 9c provided on the side surface of the lower end of the locomotive 6 and the locomotive 6 is fixed.
[0059]
Next, as shown in FIG. 12, the locomotive 6 is caused to travel on the short track portion 4 of the traverse table 3 from the standby track portion 5, and the transport cart 2 connected to the locomotive 6 is moved to the start end portion of the track 1. When the locking hole 7c provided on the front end of the carriage 1 reaches the rear end of the transport carriage 2 that has been fed onto the starting end of the track 1, the optical sensor 10 mounted on the locomotive 6 The light is reflected from the reflecting plate 21 and stopped at that position, and the front end locking hole 7c of the transport carriage 2 that has been carried in is provided at the rear end of the transport carriage 2 that has been sent first. It is positioned vertically below the vertical rod 7a.
[0060]
As described above, the first vertical rod 7a pushes up the second vertical rod 7b to a certain height without moving the movable shaft body 8b of the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 disposed below the first vertical rod 7a. Therefore, the first vertical rod 7a waits in a state where its lower end surface is stopped at a position above the locking hole 7c, so that the front end locking hole of the transport carriage 2 to be fed next is received. 7c can be positioned vertically below the first vertical rod 7a, but after the connection between the transport carriage 2 and the locomotive 6 that have been sent to the starting end of the track 1 is released, the transport carriage The first and second vertical rods 7a and 7c are lowered to their original positions, and when the next transport carriage 2 is fed onto the starting end of the track 1 by the locomotive 6, the engagement / disengagement mechanism 8 is actuated again.
