Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rail-bound transport system with a mounting rail and with at least a first and a second rail vehicle which can be moved in the longitudinal direction of the mounting rail.
  • Such rail-bound transport systems are known in practice in a wide variety of designs, the best-known representative being the railway, in which two rails are arranged at a constant distance from one another, on which railway carriages can be moved. Other representatives of such transport systems are monorail railways or overhead railways, in which the rail vehicles are moved in a hanging manner.
  • Such rail-bound transport systems are suitable both for the transport of goods and for the transport of people. Transport systems that are essentially limited to the transport of goods can also be found in storage and production halls, where they are used to supply raw materials and semi-finished products to the production facilities and to transport finished products. All these known transport systems have in common that they are operated essentially with fixed-size rail vehicles and the transport capacity can only be varied essentially by the length of the rail vehicles.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing a rail-bound transport system of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that, in order to save costs and increase productivity, a more flexible selection of the size of one of the rail vehicles is possible with regard to the required transport capacity.
  • the mounting rail is designed as a hollow rail, with a first guideway and a second guideway, which are arranged inside the hollow rail, and that on each of the guideways and their Position in the interior of the hollow rail of one of the rail vehicles is adapted in terms of size and assigned to this guideway.
  • the invention offers the advantage that rail vehicles of different cross-sectional shape, in particular of different widths, the transport capacity of which can be used, so that the quantity of the goods to be transported can be matched, so that it is not necessary for the transport of smaller quantities of goods that the larger rail vehicle arrives at a certain location for loading when no greater transport capacity is required there. Likewise, the larger rail vehicle does not have to go to the unloading location for the smaller quantity of goods, so that detours due to small transport quantities are avoided and the transport system as a whole can be used more effectively.
  • At least one of the guideways for guiding the rail vehicle assigned to it has a travel rail, since no support on the side walls of the hollow rail has to take place for the lateral guidance of the rail vehicle, which could take place only on one side and at least for a rail vehicle the other rail vehicle would have to be offset in height from the first rail vehicle for use on both sides.
  • the track width of the pairs of rails is different, since an optimal adaptation of the rail vehicles to the different size of the load is possible.
  • This embodiment offers the advantage that previously required space for the ground-based storage of the mounting rail, for example in factory halls, is made free by the use of the third spatial dimension, so that this freed-up space is available for other purposes, for example for the production itself or for storage ,
  • the hanging and / or raised arrangement of the mounting rail opens up the possibility that a slot is formed in the longitudinal direction on the underside of the mounting rail, through which a support member connected to one of the rail vehicles extends for coupling to the load to be transported.
  • the limitation of the volume or the cross-sectional shape for the goods to be transported has been overcome by the hollow rail, since the goods to be transported can be arranged outside the hollow rail and is moved there by coupling with the rail vehicle or rails arranged in the mounting rail.
  • the support member is expediently detachably connected to the rail vehicle.
  • means for height adjustment of the load are assigned to the support member.
  • An increase in the load capacity of the transport system and a further increase in the transport capacity is achieved in that the mounting rail is provided in pairs to form a pair of mounting rails of a defined track width, this embodiment being particularly useful when a large load to be transported is arranged outside the hollow rails and there is a simultaneous coupling with rail vehicles arranged in both mounting rails.
  • a further embodiment of the invention is designed in such a way that the mounting rail is mounted such that it can be moved on running rails oriented transversely to its longitudinal direction, so that it results that the mounting rail is not placed in a fixed position in space, which results in a This would result in a stationary route network, but can be traversed in space with the result that, in principle, any point on one level can be approached with one of the rail vehicles.
  • a turntable arranged on a cantilever is provided for variable connection of a plurality of support rails arranged radially to the turntable.
  • the turntable is mounted such that it can be adjusted in height in order to connect several mounting rails of different heights.
  • a switch is provided to enable a change of direction or lane, which has a switch member that can be pivoted about an axis perpendicular to the guideway, this design making it possible, because of the highly variable combination of rails to pairs of rails with the related possibility to use both sides of the rails for guidance, the rail connections are completely changed.
  • the mounting member is articulated to a cross member that is articulated to the load to be transported, then there is the possibility that the spacing of the mounting rails, especially in curves, is not must be exact and also a change of the rail vehicles between the mounting rails of the mounting rail pair is possible.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a rail-bound transport system with two support rails arranged at a defined distance and designed as a hollow rail, each of which has a plurality of guideways and rail vehicles assigned to them,
  • FIG. 2 shows the rail-bound transport system shown in FIG. 1 with running rails oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction of the support rails
