Definitions

  • FIG. 2 is a partial side view of the track liner showing one embodiment of this apparatus at the point where the track position is determined;
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic top view showing still another embodiment of the apparatus indicated at IV in FIG. 1;
  • one of the track rails 3, i.e., the left one in FIGS. 1 and 4 serves as the datum or basis for correcting the track position.
  • the bogies 5, 6 and 8 carry means for pressing the same against a selected one of the rails, i.e., the left rail 3 in the illustrated embodiment, to hold the ends of the reference line and the cooperating indicating element in a fixed position in relation to the selected track rail.
  • the present invention is not concerned with specific means for pressing the bogies against a selected rail, pressure fluid operated means for such a purpose being shown, for instance, in our US. Pat. No. 3,334,592.
  • the illustrated means is more fully described and claimed in our concurrently filed patent application, Ser. No.
  • the fixed bogie constitutes a fixed indicating element associated and cooperating with the reference line to determine the track position at any given point where the bogie stands.
  • the signal is transmitted to a stylo 16 which permanently records the same on a calibrated record sheet 17 which moves continuously and synchronously with the machine.
  • the sheet 17 will show any deviations of reference line point 4 from the desired position.
  • the radiation signal emanating from a radioactive material and the radiation intensity meter means being a Geiger counter.
