Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A process for producing rails with a lateral guide surface, together with or without an inner or running [4 June 4, i974 edge, and/or a bearing or running surface which is highly resistant to wear and tear, which comprises a. preparing the lateral guide surface, with or without an inner or running edge, and/or bearing surface by the formation of a substantially rectangular recess therein, whereby al. in the case of the preparation of the lateral guide surface together with an inner or running edge, the rectangular recess has a height of at least 10 mm and maximally 34 mm, and a width of at least 3 mm and maximally 10 mm, and 212.
  • At least one positioned essentially parallel to the longitudinal rail axis has a height of at least 3 mm and maximally 8 mm, and a width of at least 10 mm and maximally 30 mm, b. filling the "recesses by welding on a welding material having the following composition (in percent):
  • the present invention relates to a process for producing rails with a lateral guide surface, together with or without an inner or running edge, and/or a bearing or running surface which is highly resistant to wear and tear.
  • worn-out rails are built up by welding and subsequently ground down for the purpose of reestablishing or re-constituting the profile at the wornout parts of the rail head. These operations can be carried out either while the rails are in place, or while they are disassembled.
  • the present invention rails with a highly wearresistant lateral guide surface, together with or without an inner or running edge, and/or a bearing or running surface and, in accordance therewith, the rail, i.e., a new rail, is provided with the highly wear-resistant surface or surfaces prior .to being assembled or put in place.
  • rails that are already assembled or are in place may be disassembled, provided with the wear-resistant running surface or surfaces in the workshop, and then reassembled or put in place.
  • the object sought to be obtained by the present invention is having the lateral guide surface, together with or without an inner running edge, and/or a bearing or running surface display an ex tremely high wear-resistance so that a rail treated in this manner can be left in place for a long period of time, and in re-establishing, by means of exact grinding, the exact and uniform rail profile, which is necessary for producing good running properties. It is preferred that the required operation be performed, if possible, automatically and in the workshop.
  • rectangular recess has a height b of at least mm and maximally 34 mm, and a width a of at least 3 mm and maximally 10 mm, and
  • either one or several recesses positioned essentially parallel to the longitudinal rail axis have a height b of at least 3 mm and maximally 8 mm, and a width a of at least 10 mm and maximally 30 mm, b filling the recesses by welding on a welding rod or welding band having the following composition (in percent):
  • the rectangularrecess has a height b of 25 mm and a width a of 6 mm and, that in the case of the preparation of the bearing surface, the recess has a height b of 5 mm and a widthv a of 20 mm.
  • the welding rod to be employed according to the present invention, or the welding band to be employed according to the present invention, having the composition indicated hereinabove, may be welded onto the cold rail.
  • the pressure solidification of the welded-on alloy takes place by virtue of the wheel pressure of wheels traveling thereover.
  • a specific preliminary heating of the rails may be dispensed with.
  • the welding rod or the welding band are welded on preferably according to the electric arc-welding method, particularly according to the submerged arcwelding method.
  • Preferred within the limits of the compensation of the inventive alloy as indicated herein is an alloy having (in percent) a carbon content from 0.55 to 0.60, a silicon content from 0.35 to 0.40, a nickel content from 3.60 to 3.70, and a manganese content from 14.00 to 15.00, with the remainder being iron and impurities resulting from the manufacturing process.
  • a rod having this composition there is obtained an optimum of weldability, treatability, ductility, cold hardening, and gliding properties.
  • the rail is preferably either counter-heated during welding, or aligned after welding by counter-heating.
  • the finishing grinding operation after welding must produce dimensions which are true to profile. It is evident from this requirement that a manual grinding or polishing is suitable only to a limited extent. A grinding member gliding to and fro over the entire length of the rail is therefore preferably used for the grinding or polishing operation. W a correct clamping or stretching of the rail it is possible to grind the required rail head profile by finely setting or adjusting the grinding stone.
  • F IG. 1 shows the lateral'bearing surface and running edge of the rail treated according to-the present invention, and reference letter a identifies therein the width and reference letter b the height of the welding seam worked on or treated in a manner true to profile,
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a rail wherein the process of the present invention is carried out only at the lateral running edge of the rail, with reference letters a and b having the same significance as in FIG. 1, and
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a rail treated according to the present invention with a welded-on and treated bearing surface.
  • a process for producing a rail with a lateral guide surface together with an inner edge which is highly resistant to wear and tear which comprises forming a substantially rectangular recess in said lateral guide surface, said recess having a height of at least 10 mm and maximally 34 mm, and a width of at least 3 mm and maximally-l mm,
  • a process for producing a rail with a bearing surface which is highly resistant to wear and tear which cmprises forming a substantially rectangular recess in said rail essentially parallel to the longitudinal rail axis, said recess having a height of at least 3 mm and maximally 8 mm, and a width of at least 10 mm and maximally 30 mm,
