- TITLE LINK FOR AN EXCAVATION CHAIN AND EXCAVATION CHAIN
- the invention relates, in general, to the technical field of clearing or excavation chains.
- the invention relates more specifically to a link for an excavation chain intended to travel on a traffic path having a rectilinear excavation portion for a ballast clearing device below a railway track, and to an excavation chain comprising such links.
- ballasts located under the sleepers of a railway track, and for sorting it for possible reuse by dumping it on the track.
- These machines are commonly called “stripping machines”.
- work trains generally further comprise a machine responsible for screening the ballast to keep, on the one hand, the healthy part of the ballast for its reuse, and on the other hand, to remove the worn part of the ballast in wagons provided for this purpose.
- the stripper-screening machine makes it possible to remove, sort the used ballast and replace the entire ballast layer with the sorted healthy ballast as well as a possible additional supply of new ballast.
- Such work trains are equipped with excavation chains consisting of a succession of articulated links, at least part of which is equipped with shovels intended to excavate the ballast.
- This chain is arranged in a movable or adjustable manner in height, on the chassis of the rail vehicle.
- the chain is endlessly moved by a driving mechanism.
- the chain path is configured so that it has a rectilinear excavation portion located under the railroad ties, the chain working on this excavation portion transversely with respect to the orientation of the rails of the railway, dragging and transporting the ballast with them.
- brackets On either side of this rectilinear excavation portion are arranged brackets forming return members for the excavation chain.
- brackets are located at the ends of the rectilinear excavation portion, the portion along which the ballast is withdrawn, and are generally formed of a fixed bent wall on which the chain links slide successively.
- the chain circulates along a longitudinal arrival path then circulates on the rectilinear excavation portion after having passed through a first bent portion formed by one of the brackets.
- the chain which continues on its way then leaves said rectilinear excavation portion to circulate on the longitudinal outlet portion after having passed through a second bent portion formed by the other of the brackets.
- the shovels arrive on this rectilinear excavation portion while being unloaded and come out loaded with ballast towards the longitudinal exit portion.
- the longitudinal inlet and outlet portions are connected, in an area located high above the rail vehicle, by a transverse discharge portion where the ballast is discharged onto conveyor belts.
- the shovels unloaded from the ballast then continue their way towards the arrival longitudinal portion, then repeating these operations.
- the wear of the links is also localized at the level of the return members. Indeed, the shocks undergone in these bent zones, taking into account the forces involved, often lead to premature wear at the level of the brackets, and more generally at the level of the return members arranged along the path traveled by the chain. The wear is also localized on the inner side of the links, opposite to the outer side from which the shovel protrudes.

- the Pinf and Psup planes are generally horizontal. This lower end is sensitive in that it is extremely stressed in terms of abrasion wear against the ballast so that if the wear becomes too great, it can interfere with the proper attachment of the fingers 132 on the back of the machine. the shovel 130.
- the hardness of the lower surface of the shovel 130 is increased, for example by an addition by welding chromium / manganese and vanadium or by adding tungsten carbide plates.
- FIGs 10 and 11 illustrate an excavation line according to another embodiment.
- the excavation chain 8 is formed by a succession of links 100 articulated in pairs until the two ends of the chain 8 are connected end to end to form a closed chain 8. , of endless chain type.
- each link 100 comprises, on an inner side 100B of the body 8 of the link 100 with respect to the reference plane P, opposite to an outer side 100A, a guide surface 150 is configured to match at least locally a curvature C of a return member 40 of the clearing device 4.
- the excavation chain 8 is composed of a succession of links 100 among which the links are of three different types: the links 100 of the type comprising a shovel 130, the links 100 of the type comprising a counter-stop 140 and links 100 of the type without protruding part, that is to say formed essentially from their body 101.
- each of the links 100 of the type comprising a shovel 130 is disposed between two links 100 of the type comprising a counter-stop 140.
- each link 100 of the type without protruding part is also disposed between two Links of the type comprising a counter-stop 140. Every other link is therefore provided with a counter-stop 140, the other links being alternately a link of the type comprising a shovel 130 and a link of the type without protruding part.
- a pattern of the chain is therefore formed by a link 100 of the type without protruding part interposed between two links of the type comprising a counter-stop 140, and a link 100 of the type comprising a shovel 130 at a front end or back of this set of three links: these four links 100 together form, in this order, a pattern which is repeated successively along chain 8.
- Each link 100 comprising a shovel 130 comes directly in front of a link comprising a counter-stop 140 so, as already described, to limit a relative rotation of the link carrying the shovel 130.
- the links fixing interfaces between their bodies 101, at their front ends 110 and rear 120 are identical for a link 100 of the same type: the links comprising a shovel 130 and the so-called “intermediate” links without protruding part are so-called “female” links for their connection in the chain 8 and the links 100 comprising a counter-stop 140 are so-called “male” links for their connection in the chain 8.
- the female links have a body 101, the front 110 and rear 120 ends of which are each provided with two side plates or flanges of predetermined thickness between which is interposed a centered plate of a front end 110 or rear 120 of a body 101 of another adjacent link 100.
- the axis of the articulation means 160 is configured to be housed in the associated through-hole formed by the alignment of through-hole portions of each of these three plates of the two links nested one in the other so as to form a hinge.
- this link 100 has on an outer side 100A of the body 101 with respect to the reference plane P, opposite to the inner side 100B, a convex surface.
- Such a surface aims to increase the distance separating the surfaces of the inner 100B and outer 100A sides of the body 101, that is to say to increase the thickness of the body 101 of the links to make them more resistant.
- the guide surface 150 is itself always configured to match at least locally a curvature C of a return member4 of the excavation device4.
