Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a vehicle loading and transporting device for transporting a vehicle on a loading vehicle such as a freight car for rail transportation.
In particular, the present invention relates to a vehicle loading and transporting device that allows loading and unloading of a vehicle to be carried out simply and efficiently when the vehicle is being transported from one unspecified station to another.

In Japan, automobiles are transported by rail vehicles from automobile manufacturing plants to major sales points by forming two-story freight cars specialized for transporting passenger cars. This method has relatively few problems when transporting only automobiles from one point to another, and if there is a facility for getting on and off cars at the end of the track at the terminal station, one of the many cars loaded on a freight car can be transported. It is suitable for transportation where there is no requirement to unload only the platform.

In contrast to transporting only cars, a well-known method for transporting people inside a car is the railway that runs through tunnels that pass through the Alps.
This is because it makes it possible to transport vehicles through small-section tunnels without emitting vehicle exhaust gas, even in areas where roads are inadequate. Even in this case, once the loaded cars pass through the Alps, they all have the common purpose of getting off the train, so when getting on and off, the loaded cars pass through the assembled freight cars, so the structure of the freight cars is different. There are no particularly difficult problems.

In addition to transporting passenger cars, methods called piggybacks or kangaroos are used in the United States and other countries to transport trailer trucks over long distances, but Japan is considering this method due to difficulties in loading and unloading. was proposed but not implemented. Also, tunnels such as the Tokyo Bay Crossing Tunnel have a distance of 15
In order to run a large number of cars for about Km,
In order to ventilate exhaust gas, a ventilation tunnel that is larger than the tunnel for automobiles is required, so the use of various electric drive vehicles has been considered from a cost perspective, and there are prospects for realizing it.

On the other hand, when considering the future mode of transportation, it is important to consider energy efficiency, economic efficiency, the amount of labor per unit of transportation, and in the case of passenger cars, as a means of eliminating wasted labor due to driving on the way to the destination. If automobiles and passenger cars are loaded onto freight cars and transported to a station near their destination, then the cars are driven by a waiting driver or a driver who is on the same train, and the railway becomes a land vehicle. can be fulfilled. If this becomes possible, it is expected to bring about a huge revolutionary change in freight car transportation and passenger car driving.

Many travelers who travel by car do not like to drive their own cars to distant destinations due to the fatigue. Separate transportation is desired, in which only the automobile is transported independently and the vehicle itself goes directly to its destination by train or airplane. This means that in Boshu, a special train called a car sleeper train was already running in designated sections, and when travelers drove to the station, the traveler and the car were connected to the same train, with one sleeping car and the other sleeping car. It is transported by freight cars.

However, loading and unloading of automobiles is quite a big job and cannot be easily done in a short period of time. For this reason, there are cases where freight cars are equipped with special turntables to load and unload cars, but this is expensive and requires a considerable amount of time, so the driver cars have to wait on the station platform. I didn't have to. Furthermore, although it is fine if all passengers on a train get off at the same destination station, it is extremely difficult to operate a train where passengers get off at many stations one by one.

The present invention has been made from this point of view, and although a car loaded with automobiles can be operated as a unit, when running on a main line, a large number of loaded cars can be connected back and forth to form a train formation. In order to do this, only the loaded vehicles that require the boarding and alighting of cars are separated and independently entered the track one by one, stopped at an appropriate angle to the boarding and alighting platform, and the loaded vehicle and the boarding and alighting platform are separated and stopped. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle loading/transporting device that allows a vehicle to be boarded and disembarked very easily and in a short time by self-propelled driving.

In other words, in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the vehicle loading/transporting device of the present invention has a pair of front and rear underframes, each rotatable in the horizontal direction and driven by an electric motor, at the bottom of an underframe large enough to load a vehicle on the top surface. At the same time, a triangular-shaped platform is installed at the front and rear ends of the underframe, and when assembled with the underframe to form a parallelogram with inclined front and rear ends, the board is moved from a horizontal to a substantially vertical position. A coupler which is pivotally mounted so that it can be raised and rotated in an upright state, and which is disposed below a boarding board at the front and rear ends of the underframe, and which becomes in a protruding state to enable train formation when the board is turned up and down. There is a main line in which a car carrying vehicle is equipped with a vehicle, a main line in which a large number of these loaded cars are connected in front and back in a train formation, and a vehicle in which the target car is separated from the train formation and independently runs from the main line to a terminal station. A branching mechanism for forcing the front and rear bogies of the loaded vehicle to enter different lines when moving the vehicle to a different track; and a branching mechanism for forcing the front and rear bogies of the loaded vehicle to enter different lines from each other; A left and right branch line is provided along the outside of the left and right branch line to allow the loaded vehicle to run in an inclined state in which the front and rear end sides of the front and rear board are parallel to the direction of travel, and a vehicle is provided along the outside of the left and right branch line to run the loaded vehicle in an inclined state. It is characterized by comprising a boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/boarding/disembarking platform which is located adjacent to and opposite to the inclined edge of the front and rear boarding boards which fall horizontally when the loaded vehicle stops, and which is located approximately at the same height as the inclined edge of the board and which allows boarding/disembarkation by the self-propelled operation of the vehicle. .

With the above configuration, a vehicle loaded with automobiles can be driven as a single vehicle by driving the front and rear bogies.
When running on the main line, by standing up and rotating the boarding boards at the front and rear ends of the loaded cars, it is possible to connect multiple trains front and back via connectors at the front and rear ends to form train formations, which allows for efficient transportation from station to station. Transportation becomes possible. In addition, only loaded vehicles that need to get on and off the car can enter the terminal station by separating and independent vehicle by car, allowing the front and rear bogies to run under their own power. A situation in which the front and rear bogies are forced to approach different lines from each other, and continue to run astride the left and right branch lines that are spaced parallel to each other, and the loaded vehicle is tilted at an appropriate angle with respect to the direction of travel. In other words, when the front and rear triangular board is overturned, the loaded vehicle is stopped in an inclined state so that the front and rear end sides of the incline are parallel to the direction of travel, and then the front and rear board of the loaded vehicle is overturned. , its front and rear sloped sides will be adjacent to and opposite to the boarding platform at approximately the same height. This allows a car that has driven itself on the platform to gently curve, diagonally transfer from the platform to the platform, and then directly onto the underframe, and also allows the vehicle to ride on the underframe. The transported automobile can then drive itself, get off on the boarding platform diagonally from the boarding platform, make a gentle curve, and exit onto a general road or the like. For this reason, getting on and off a car at a terminal station can be done very quickly and efficiently by self-driving driving, and at that time, there is no need to make a sharp curve on the platform, so it is possible to get on and off from a narrow platform. Not only professional staff but also people with relatively low driving skills can get on and off the vehicle very easily and safely.

Moreover, in the main line section, each loaded car runs in a train configuration in which it faces forward and is connected to the front and back, so the front surface area is small, and the track width of the main line section can be made narrower, which makes it possible to reduce the site area. The tunnel section requires only a small excavation cross-sectional area, making it possible to significantly reduce civil engineering costs. Furthermore, since cars are boarded and alighted diagonally at the terminal station, there is no need for sharp curves and the width of the boarding/alighting platform does not need to be wide, and the site area of the terminal station can be reduced accordingly.

The details of the present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings which are one embodiment. 1 and 2 are a plan view and a side view, respectively, of a car-loading vehicle used in the present invention. The underframe 12 of the car loading vehicle 11 (hereinafter referred to as loading vehicle) has a substantially rectangular floor plate shape large enough to load a car on the top surface, and triangular boarding boards 13A and 13b are provided at the front and rear ends of the frame 12, respectively. It is pivotally attached so that it can be raised and rotated between the vertical position and the upright position. This front and rear boarding board 13A,
13B is horizontally turned over to the front and back of the underframe 12, and when viewed from above, the overall structure is a parallelogram with the front and rear end sides inclined, and the couplers 14A, 14B is the board 13A, 1
3B, and this coupler 1
4A and 14B stand up and rotate the boarding boards 13A and 13B approximately vertically as shown by the imaginary lines in Figure 2, so that they protrude forward and backward, making it possible to connect with other loaded cars to form a train. ing.

A car 15 is loaded on the top surface of the underframe 12, and although a bus is shown as an example in the figure, the same applies to a passenger car. A trolley 16 is mounted on the underside of the underframe 12.
A and 16B are rotatably provided, and the trolley 1
6A and 16B are designed so that no problem occurs even if the Nuibel angle with respect to the underframe 12 is increased. Further, the carts 16A and 16B are provided with electric motors (not shown) for driving them. For this reason, a motor control device 17 is provided on the underside of the underframe 12.
A battery is installed in the control device 17 to serve as a power source when there is no pantograph on the underframe 12.

Such a loaded vehicle 11 has boarding boards 13A and 13B.
are connected to each other by flip-up couplers 14A and 14B to form a train. In this case, the train may be pulled by a large locomotive, or only a control car may be connected to the front. When towed by a large locomotive, the loaded car 11 becomes a mere freight car, and the electric motor provided thereon is not driven. However, in this case, all the loaded cars 1
1, and a method of floatingly charging batteries provided in each loaded vehicle 11 using this bus bar, and an electric motor (not shown) provided in each loaded vehicle 11.
Alternatively, there is a method in which a generator (not shown) is driven from the axle via a belt or the like (not shown) to perform floating charging of the battery.

The former busbar system allows for easy vehicle control and low running resistance, but on the other hand, when disassembling a train, it is necessary to separate the busbars and operation is complicated. The latter charging method is a little more complicated from a control point of view, and the running resistance of the vehicle increases slightly compared to the former method, but the command wire for control only needs to be an extremely thin wire, so it is easy to operate when disassembling the train. be. As described above, both types have their advantages and disadvantages, and in the present invention, it is assumed that either type can be used and the battery is automatically charged at all times.

Next, Figure 3 shows the special branching mechanism used when the loaded cars shown in Figures 1 and 2 arrive at their destinations by large locomotives, are separated, and guided to specific car platforms. explain. The main line is shown as rails 21A and 21B, which branch into two branch lines 22A and 22B and 23A and 23B. Main lines 21A and 21B and branch lines 22A and 22B and 23A and 23B are connected to branch rails 24A and 23B, which are insulated from other rails.
B. Iron prong rails 25A and 2 which are located in the middle of the above rails and are also insulated from other rails.
5B, a V-shaped rail 26 connected to and insulated from rails 22B and 23A, fixed rails 27A and 27B connected to rails 25A and 25B, and said fixed rail 27.
A and 27B are rotatably connected on one side, and the other side is connected by tongue-shaped rails 28A and 28B fixed by tie rods 29.

A piston rod 32 fixed to a piston 31 of a cylinder 30 is connected to a portion of the tongue-shaped rail 28B connected to the tie rod 29. On the other hand, a pump 34 for sucking hydraulic oil from the tank 33 is connected to an operating valve 36 via an accumulator 35, and the operating valve 36 is connected to both sides of the piston 31 of the cylinder 30 by pipes 37 and 38. The iron prong rails 25A and 25B and the V-shaped rail 26 are connected by a wiring 39, and this wiring 39 is connected to one side of a power source 41 by a wiring 40.

The branch rail 24A is connected to the other side of the power supply 41 by the wiring 42 via the contactor coil 43, and the branch rail 24B is connected from the wiring 44 to the contactor coil 4.
5 to the other side of the power source 41. The wiring 40 branches in the middle and becomes a wiring 46, which is a contact 45A of the contactor coil 45.A contact 43 of the contactor coil 43.
It is connected to the other side of the power source 41 via the A contactor coil 47 and the contactor coil 48. Contact 47A of contactor coil 47 is connected in parallel to contact 43A, and contact 48A of contactor coil 48 is connected to power supply 41.
The other side is connected to one side of the solenoid 36A of the operating valve 36, and the other side of the solenoid 36A is connected to one side of the power source 41 by a wiring 49.

The operation of the special branching mechanism described above will be explained. Assuming that a loading vehicle 11 (not shown) approaches from the main line 21 side, the tongue-shaped rail 28B is in close contact with the main line 21B as shown in the figure, so the front bogie 16
A (not shown) proceeds towards branch line 22. When the truck 16A advances to above the branch rail 24A and the iron fork rail 25B, both rails 24A and 25B are short-circuited by the wheel axle of the truck 16A. For this reason, the wires 40 and 42 are connected to the connected contactor coil 4.
3 is energized and contact 43A is closed, contactor coils 47 and 48 are energized and both contacts 47A and 48A are closed.

By closing the contact 48A, the solenoid 36A of the operating valve 36 is energized, and the operating valve 36 moves from the right-hand position to the left-hand position in the drawing. As a result, the hydraulic oil flows into the right chamber of the piston 31 through the pipe 37, and since the left chamber is open to the tank, the piston 31 moves to the left. This operation causes the tongue-shaped rail 28B to separate from the main line 21B, and the tongue-shaped rail 28A to come into close contact with the main line 21A, so that the main line 21 is connected to the branch line 23. During this time, the contact 47A is closed due to the energization of the contactor coil 47, so a self-holding circuit is formed, and the contact 48A is also kept closed, and the trolley 16A passes the branch rail 24A, etc., and the contactor 47A is closed. This state is maintained even if the coil 43 is turned off and the contact 43A is opened.

In the above switching operation, the tongue rail 28A
and 28B are switched on the trolley 16
Since all switching operations must be completed before A passes through the tongue rail 28B and the truck 16B advances to the tongue rail 28A, the distance between the two trucks 16A and 16B and the speed of the loading truck 11 are There is a close relationship between fixed rails 27A and 27B.
The length and operating speed of tongue rails 28A and 28B must be carefully considered.

In this way tongue rails 28A and 28B
When the truck 16B is switched, the truck 16B moves toward the branch line 23, and when the truck 16B advances to the top of the iron forked rail 25A and the insulated rail 24B, both rails 25A
and 24B are short-circuited by the wheel shaft of truck 16B, and as a result, wires 40 and 44 are connected, contactor coil 45 is energized, and contact 45A is opened. This releases the self-holding circuit of the contactor coils 47 and 48, and also releases the solenoid 36A of the operating valve 36, causing the operating valve 36 to return to the position shown and push the piston 31 to the right to push the tongue rail. 28A and 28B also return to the positions shown.

In the above explanation, the first truck 16A is the tongue-shaped rail 2.
We have explained the method of detecting when a pair of rails are short-circuited by the wheel set to detect that the vehicle has crossed 8B and traveled a certain distance. This is because this method is currently highly reliable, but it is not limited to this and there are many other methods. For example, trolley 16A
A method in which the wheel flange etc. of There are various methods, such as a method of detecting the position of the loaded vehicle 11 using a method of detecting the position of the loaded vehicle 11, and a method of incorporating a load cell into the rail to detect the entry of the loaded vehicle 11, and it is possible to use any of these methods.

As can be understood from the above explanation, this special branching mechanism forces an abnormal approach, which is a serious accident in general railways, and when passing through this special branching mechanism, the bogie 16A goes to the branch line 22 and The truck 16B travels along the branch line 23, and the loaded vehicle 11 travels diagonally on two rails. In this case, the loaded vehicle 11 drives the electric motor using its own battery and travels on its own, and the stopping and speed control at that time are performed by remote control or automatic operation control, and the details are as follows. Since it is not directly related to the present invention, it will be omitted.

Next, the loading and unloading of automobiles onto and from the loading vehicle 11 after passing through the above-mentioned special branching mechanism will be explained with reference to FIG. The loaded vehicle 11, which was automatically caused to enter the abnormal state by the special branching mechanism, passes along branch lines 22 and 2.
Each trolley 16A and 16B rides on 3,
The underframe 12 runs obliquely to the branch lines 22 and 23. At this time, if the center distance between both branch lines 22 and 23 is L, the inclination with respect to the traveling direction of the loaded vehicle is θ, and the distance between the carts 16A and 16B is l, then L=lsinθ (1).

The loaded vehicle 11 that has entered the branch lines 22 and 23 stops at a position facing the boarding platform 51 and/or 52, and when the boarding boards 13A and 13B are placed in a horizontal state, the couplers 14A and 14B are hidden, and the boarding board 13A and 13B are hidden. The front end faces the boarding platforms 51 and 52 with a slight gap A and the same height. In the figure, boarding platform 51
and 52 are respectively connected to the loading vehicle 11, but it is also possible to install only one platform on one side and shift the platform on the other side. If the loaded vehicle 11 comes into contact with the boarding platform 51 and/or 52 in this way, the loaded vehicle 1
1, the car loaded onto the platform 51 has a gap A.
Get over it and get off. Further, a car can be loaded onto the loading vehicle 11 from the boarding platform 52.

It is possible to greatly save labor by having the car owner or driver carry out the work of loading and unloading the car, but the width of the loading car 11 is not wide enough in current railways. Loading and unloading must be carried out by specialized staff who are skilled in such driving, and measures are also required to prevent the vehicle from moving due to impact from brakes or other means while the loaded vehicle 11 is in progress. It is preferable to do so.

As shown in Figure 4, the loaded vehicle is placed on the platform 51.
It is possible to park any number of cars in parallel for 52 and 52, and there is no problem when loading only one car on one loaded car, but when multiple passenger cars are loaded on one loaded car like a passenger car. When loading passenger cars, sorting them by destination and loading them will make unloading easier. There is no need to load vehicles from the front of the loaded vehicle in order of destination, as with conventional loaded vehicles, but it is only necessary to consider the number of vehicles applied for loading and allocate how many vehicles should be loaded to which destination. , it is possible to sort the cars into loaded cars in the order of their arrival and prepare for loading and departure.

Next, the practical operation of the loading vehicle 11 will be explained. In this case, if the train is for large vehicles only, the length of time the train stops at the station is not a big problem for the driver as long as it arrives at its destination at the correct time. However, in the case of a passenger car, the passenger carried by the driver and the loader 11 are connected, so
It is important to guide the loaded vehicle 11 to the boarding/disembarking platform 51 or 52 as shown in Fig. 4 in a short time and create a system for immediately disembarking the vehicle. Loading vehicle 11
It is necessary to have a train organization that allows loading cars 11 to be loaded onto the train and disembarking them so that the loaded cars 11 can be separated from the train at other stations.

An example of a rail arrangement in which trains are organized by classifying trains into a large number of destination stations using a small number of tracks as described above will be explained with reference to FIG. The figure is an example using arrow wire, 6
1, 62, and 63 are main lines, and the train advances from the 61 side and arrives at a passenger platform 64 at a position 63, from which passengers board or alight. Car platforms 51 and 52 shown in FIG. 4 are provided at the end of the passenger platform 64, and branch lines 22 and 23 shown in FIG. 4 are installed facing the car platforms 51 and 52. is main line 21
It is in contact with a standby line 65 which is connected to the main lines 61 and 63 via (see FIG. 3).

The main line 62 has three-way branch points 66A to 66D. From the branch point 66A, arrow-like classification lines 67A to 67C and 67D to 67F connect, and the classification lines 67A to 67C connect to the branch points 68A and 68B.
, the classification lines 69A and 69 connecting to the main line 62
Connected to B. Also, classification lines 67D to 67
F is connected to classification lines 69D and 69E, which connect to the branch points of classification lines 69A and 69B of main line 62, at branch points 68D and 68E.

To explain the function of the above-mentioned classification lines, before the train arrives, an empty loaded car 11 enters the branch lines 22 and 23, and if the train is classified by destination from the boarding platform 52, the destinations are ``A station bound B station bound...'' The automobile is loaded onto the corresponding loading vehicle 11. The loading car 11 loaded with automobiles is placed at the waiting line 6 immediately before the train arrives.
5 to the main line 63, and from there are sorted by destination at three-way junctions 66A to 66C. At this time, the loaded vehicle 11 whose destination is the station closest to the station is on the classification line 67C, the second closest loaded vehicle 11 is on the classification line 67B, and the third loaded vehicle 1 is on the classification line 67B.
1 to 67A, 4th and 5th loading vehicle 11
are sorted into sorting lines 67F and 67E, respectively, and loaded vehicles 11 beyond these lines are sorted into 67D and stopped.

At this time, when the passenger train connected with the loaded cars 11 arrives at the main line 63, the passengers who get off the train get off at the passenger platform 64, and the passengers who are not related to the car go out of the passenger platform 64, but the passengers who came with the car go to the passenger platform 64. I'll be waiting at platform 51. The last few cars 11 of the train are loaded with cars that get off at this station, so as soon as the train stops, they separate and are sent to the waiting line 65 via junction 66A and 70A and 70B. , immediately retrograde to the third
As explained in the figure, the vehicle advances obliquely from the main line 21 to the branch lines 22 and 23, and when it comes into contact with the alighting platform 51, preparations for alighting are completed. Therefore, passengers receive their cars at the disembarkation platform 51 with almost no waiting.

In this way, the loaded car 11 loaded with cars to get off at this station is immediately separated from the rear of the train and prepares to get off, but the loaded cars 11 loaded with the remaining cars going ahead of this station are separated from the train. For the loaded cars 11 added from this station that have already been classified by destination using classification lines, the loaded cars 11 with the same destination are sorted using the three-way junctions 66A to 66C and connected to the new loaded cars 11 ahead. do.

Here, each of the loaded vehicles 11 classified into the classification lines 67F, 67E, and 67D is the loaded vehicle 1 of 67F.
1 moves forward and connects with the loading car 11 of 67E, further advances and connects with the loading car 11 of 61D, then passes through the three-way junctions 70A and 66A and goes to the rear of the train stopped on the main line 63. Link. Next, the loaded vehicles 11 stopped at the classification lines 67C, 67B, and 67A are sequentially connected in the same manner, and then passed through the three-way junction 66A and connected to the rear of the loaded vehicles 11 such as the currently connected classification line 67F. This completes the work.

Since the present invention has been made as described above, a vehicle loaded with automobiles can be driven as a single vehicle by driving the front and rear bogies, and when traveling on the main line, the board at the front and rear ends of the loaded vehicle can be raised and rotated upward, thereby allowing multiple vehicles to move forward and backward. This enables efficient transportation from station to station, and at the terminal station, only the loaded cars that need to be boarded and disembarked from the car can be separated and separated one car at a time. The front and rear bogies can enter the line by themselves, and at that time, the branching mechanism allows the loaded vehicle to straddle the left and right branch lines and run while tilting at an appropriate angle to the direction of travel, and the front and rear triangular boarding boards are installed. The front and rear sloping sides of the vehicle stop at approximately the same height as the boarding platform and are adjacent to each other, and the vehicle is driven diagonally on the boarding/disembarking platform without taking sharp curves, which is very quick, efficient, and highly skilled. Not only professional staff but also people with relatively low driving skills can get on and off the vehicle very easily and safely. In addition, in the main line section, each loaded car runs in a train formation connected front and back, facing each other, so the front surface area is small, and the track width of the main line section can be narrowed accordingly, making it possible to reduce the site area, especially tunnels. In the terminal station, the excavation area is small, making it possible to significantly reduce civil engineering costs.At the terminal station, cars are boarded and exited diagonally, so there is no need for sharp curves and the boarding platform does not have to be wide. This is a very effective way to reduce the site area even at terminal stations.
