Definitions

  • the present invention relates to tracks, for example counteracted by tampin g, blasting oreompacting oper ations. These operation s mus't be repeated at *relati yely' short intervals and'cannot be jp'erfor'rried'unless the track is out of service. This a serious disadvantage.
  • a method of laying a track on a concrete road bed comprising laying slabs on the road bed, keying the slabs to the latter, positioning bearing members on tie slabs so that a rolling guide system to be carried by them has the required geometry, and anchoring the bearing members to the slabs.
  • the slabs are prefabricated and produced of reinforced concrete.
  • a track comprising at least one rolling guide system carried by bearing members imbedded in slabs laid on a road bed and keyed with respect to the latter.
  • An anti-vibration substance may be interposed between the slabs and the road bed. Moreover, an antivibration layer may equally be situated between the bearing members and the slabs, as well as between the rolling guide system and the bearing members.
  • the slabs may be arranged in two rows, and each slab may receive at least two bearing members of one and the same row. Moreover, the slabs may be held laterally by shoulders formed in the road bed and longitudinally by abutments integral with the road bed and penetrating into openings of the slabs.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a railway track
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view along the line II-II of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a partially exploded perspective view of a portion of the track.
  • the railway track shown in FIG. I comprises two rails 1 installed on blocks 2.
  • the blocks 2 are lined up in two rows and are interconnected in pairs between one row and the other by a bar 3 so as to form a sleeper.
  • the track is laid on a brickwork road bed 4.
  • the profile illustrated in FIG. 2 corresponds to the case in which the site is a single-track tunnel.
  • the road bed 4 is provided with two shoulders 5 and with'studs 6 which may either form part of the road bed 4 or be inset in the same. 3
  • Thetrack is of specialinterest by virtue of the ease Of laying it offers.
  • the road bed 4 is prepared so as to receive the required number of rows of slabs between its shoulders 5 (two for a single track and four for a double track).
  • the slabs are then placed in position and held there by means of the wedging slabs 8.
  • the positioning of the slabs 7 need not absolutely be accurate which simplifies the construction of the road bed 4.
  • the precise laying of the track in position is performed with the sleepers formed by the two blocks 2 interconnected by a bar 3. These are first simply laid in the upper recessed part of the slabs 7 and positioned in perfect alignment. After this, the concrete filling 10 of this recessed part ensures permanent retention of the track in its correct position.
  • the quantity of concrete to be cast is reduced considerably since it may be limited to the filling of the recesses of the slabs for the anchoring of the blocks and to the production of the wedging slabs between the rows of slabs. This results in a reduction in cost and the possibility of rapid track laying which may also be mechanised by means of uncomplicated apparatus.
  • the track thus produced is firmly held to the base but is not integral with the latter.
  • Another substantial advantage of the described track is the possibility of easily securing a satisfactory protection against vibrations.
  • the layer of antivibration material 9 situated between the slabs and the road bed insulates the track from the surrounding site at all points. Moreover,.the laying of the material 9 is not difficult, since the material consists of plates or panels or alternatively may be in the form of a paste.
  • the insulation may advantageously be combined with rubber wedges between the rails and the blocks, and rubber cushions around the part of the blocks which is imbedded in the concrete to still further in crease the protection against vibration.
  • a method of laying a track on concrete roadbed comprising laying slabs on the roadbed, keying the slabs to the roadbed, positioning bearing members accurately on the slabs so that a rolling guide system to be carried by them has the required geometry, and finally anchoring the bearing members to the slabs.
  • a track comprising at least one rolling guide system carried by bearing members imbedded in slabs laid on a roadbed and held laterally by shoulders in the roadbed and longitudinally by studs integral with the roadbed and penetrating into openings in the slabs.
  • a track as claimed in claim 3, comprising two rolling guide systems fastened on two rows of bearers, the slabs being arranged in two rows and each receiving at least two bearing members of the same row.
