Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus serving to shift a vehicle and in particular a railway vehicle by hearing on the frame of the vehicle or on a part integral with this frame by means of a head carried by an inclined arm of variable length.
  • the present invention has for its subject to permit the length of the said arm to be regulated after its head has been brought underneath the vehicle against which it is to be brought to bear, and this by means of a simple, light, inexpensive and compact mechanism.
  • the head is mounted on a rack which slides in a guide and which may be raised by means of a pawl, the pivot of which is mounted on an oscillating lever which may be set in operation by the driver, a stop cooperating with the rack being furthermore provided in order to prevent the fall of the rack whilst the oscillating lever which has raised the rack is brought into its position from which it has effected the raising.
  • the said stop is permanently pressed towards the position in which it prevents the rack from falling, but it is furthermore mountedin such manner as to be thrust by the teeth of the rack when the latter is raised.
  • the said stop is mounted in such manner that it may be brought into and held by the operator in such a position as to allow the rack to fall.
  • the said .head is carried by one of.
  • the invention has also for its objects to prevent an apparatus used to shift a vehicle and in particular a railway vehicle, by bearing on the frame of the vehicle or on a part integral with the frame, being carried along by the vehicle should it slacken with respect thereto.
  • the bearing on the frame is effected through a head the height of which is greater than the difference of level between the lower portion of the frame and the lower portion of the accessories fixed to this frame underneath it, the said head being furthermore movable with respect to the part on which it is mounted in such manner that, starting from the position it occupies when it bears on the vehicle, it can be carried along by the latter in an advancing direction into a position where it can descend with respect to the part which carries it down to a level lower than that of the accessories of the vehicle which are below the frame of the vehicle in the vicinity of the point of support.
  • the said head carries stops engaged in slides having a part approximately horizontal and serving as support to the stops when the head bears underneath the vehicle, and a portion approximately vertical permitting the lowering of the head when the stops are carried past it by the vehicle which advances with respect to the apparatus.
  • the saidhead is furthermore forced permanently towards the position in which it can bear against he lower part of the vehicle.
  • FIG. 1 is a side View of an apparatus according to the invention, there beingshown only those parts essential to the understanding of the invention;
  • Figure 2 is a view in perspective, partly broken away, of the mechanism .for varying the length of the arm which carries the head bearing against the frame of a vehicle;
  • Figures 3 to 6 are side views of the mechanism according to Figure 2, in different positions;
  • Figure 7 is a view in perspective of the head of the apparatus showing how this head is raised with respect to the part which carries it;
  • Figures 8 .to 1.0 are side views of the head in three different positions.
  • FIG. v1 there is shown an apparatus for shifting a railway vehicle, a part of the frame of which is indicated by '2.
  • This apparatus comprises an oscillating framework constituted by tubes 3 carrying a motor 4.
  • This framework 3 pivots about the axle .5 of a single supporting wheel 6 which runs on a rail 1.
  • One of the arms of this oscillating framework carries a head 8 bearing against the lower part of the frame 2 of the vehicle.
  • the motor 4 serves to rotate the supporting wheel '6 in the direction of the arrow X in such manner as to force the carriage in the direction of the arrow Y.
  • the head 8 is therefore, with respect to the pivotal point 5 of the framework 3 carrying the motor ii, in the direction of forward movement of the vehicle 2.
  • the reaction couple to which the framework 3 is subjected and which is exerted in the opposite direction to the arrow X has for effect to apply the head 8 against the underneath part of the frame 2 of the vehicle with a force which is proportional to the motor couple applied to the wheel '6.
  • the vertical reaction of this on the rail 1 therefore increases at the same time as the motor couple which tends to ensure at every instant an adherence between the wheel 6 and the rail 1 suflicient to cause the vehicle to advance if the direction formed by the point of contact of the supporting wheel with the rail and by the point of support of the head 8 on the vehicle remains within the angle of friction between the wheel 6 and the raili'l.
  • the head 8 is carried by a rack 9 which can be shifted with respect to the remainder of the oscillating framework 3 in such manner as to vary the distance between the head 8 and the rail 1.
  • the rack is guided in the course of its movement in a guide [8 ( Figures 1 and 2) integral with the tubes 3 constituting the framework carrying the motor 4.
  • This guide is oriented in such manner that the direction of displacement of the rack is in the angle of friction of the wheel of the vehicle with the rail 1. This direction is such that in the limits of variation of the height of the chassis of the difierent kinds of vehicles in use, the point of contact of the head 8 with the chassis 2 of a vehicle is always in the said angle of friction.
  • the displacements of the rack 9 may be controlled by the operator when the latter supports the apparatus after he has brought the head 8 underneath the frame 2 of the vehicle. These displacements may be made necessary at this moment in order to adapt the apparatus to the varying heights of the lower face of the frame 2 above the rail 1. These heights vary not only for the same vehicle corresponding to the load of this vehicle, but also from one vehicle to the other.
  • the operator On displacing the rack 9 with respect to the rest of the oscillating framework 3, the operator then retains the handles ll of the apparatus ( Figure 1) at the most suitable height, and prevents the wheels 12, serving to facilitate the shifting of the apparatus when the latter is not in use, from coming into contact with the ground or with a rail adjacent to the running rail.
  • the operator can also act at 25 by means of the leg or knee.
  • the operator causes a small elbow lever 26 adjacent to one of the handles II to oscillate in the direction of the arrow R, this lever being connected by a cable 21 to the stop 22.
  • the head 8 is made movable with respect to a part 28 at the top of the rack 9.
  • the mobility of the head 8 with respect to the part 28 is effected in such manner that from the position which the head occupies when it bears on the vehicle, the latter carries the said head into a position in which it descends with respect to the part 28 and this to a lower level than that of the accessories, such as the bar 29 of Figure l, which are below the frame of the vehicle in the vicinity of the place where the head 8 bears on the frame.
  • the head 8 has a height greater than the difference of level between the lower part of the frame 2 of the vehicle and the lower part of the accessories fixed underneath this frame.
  • the head 8 comprises two side plates 30 reinforced by the ribs 3!. These side plates are provided towards the interior with catches 32 and 33. The latter are engaged in slides 34 made over about half the thiclmess of the flanges 35 of the part 28. These slides have a part 36, approximately horizontal, serving as support to the catches 32 and 33 when the head 8 is in the position in which it bears against the frame of the vehicle. This position is shown in Figure 8.
  • the flanges 35 of the part 28 have furthermore grooves 31 parallel to these parts 38.
  • These grooves are of such a length that when the catches 32 and 33 have been carried by translation with the head 8 by the vehicle into a position such as that shown in Figure 9 where they no longer rest on the parts 36, pivots 38 engaged in these grooves and carried by the side plates 30, have come against one of the extremities of these grooves.
  • a spring 40 is arranged to act on this head, forcing it continuously towards this position.
  • the spring shown is a pin spring operating by fiexion and having to this end its two extremities fixed at 4! and its central part 42 bearing against a plate 43 integralv with the head. The two helical portions of this spring are guided by a pin 44 fixed to the part 28.
