Abstract

The invention relates to the connection of two running gears with multiple axles to a group of running gears for railway vehicles with low-lying loading bridge (10), the running gears having at least two wheel sets (4) of small wheel base and a running gear frame, comprising side cheeks (1) and transverse beams (2) between two axles in each case, the wheel sets (4), being fixed in the running gear frame by means of axle bearings (3) and each running gear being connected to the loading bridge without king pins, merely by means of in each case a laminated bearing spring (6), lying longitudinally at the side in front of each side cheek (1), and a link suspension. The object of the invention was to combine running gears of the type mentioned at the beginning into groups of running gears and to arrange them underneath the vehicle frame or the loading bridge (10) in such a way that the exact turning angle of each running gear and of each group of running gears when travelling around a bend is ensured without enforcement and that an exact axle load balancing of the running gears of each group of running gears is ensured. This object is achieved by the running gears of each group of running gears being connected to one another by a connecting beam arranged in the longitudinal centre of the running gears and mounted on them in a jointed manner, the connecting beam (13) being arranged centrally with play between guide brackets (14) of the loading bridge (10). In this arrangement, the facing ends of each laminated bearing spring (6) of the running gears of each group of running gears are connected to each other via their links by a compensating lever, which is mounted on a bracket of the weighing bridge. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft die Verbindung von zwei mehrachsigen Laufwerken zu einer Laufwerkgruppe für Schienenfahrzeuge mit tiefliegender Ladebrücke, wobei die Laufwerke mindestens zwei Radsätze mit kleinem Achsstand und einem aus Seitenwangen und Querträger zwischen jeweils zwei Achsen bestehenden Laufwerkrahmen aufweisen, die Radsätze über Achslager in dem Laufwerkrahmen eingespannt sind und jedes Laufwerk mit der Ladebrücke lediglich über je eine seitlich vor jeder Seitenwange längsliegende Blatttragfeder und Schakengehänge drehzapfenlos verbunden ist.The invention relates to the connection of two multi-axis drives to a drive group for rail vehicles with a low loading bridge, the drives having at least two wheel sets with a small wheelbase and a drive frame consisting of side walls and cross members between two axles, the wheel sets being clamped via axle bearings in the drive frame and each drive is connected to the loading bridge by means of a leaf support spring and leg hangers, which are located laterally in front of each side cheek and without pivot pins.

Durch die DE-PS 23 02 550 sind Zweiachs-Laufwerke der eingangs genannten Klassifizierung bekannt, bei denen der Laufwerkrahmen an beiden Querenden in seiner Längsmitte je eine vertikal offene und innen als Rechteck ausgebildete Achshalterführung trägt und wobei in diese Achshalterführung von oben ein am Fahrzeugrahmen befestigter gerader und ebener Achshalter ragt. Bei dieser vorbekannten Ausführung eines Zweiachs-Laufwerks erfolgt die Führung dieses Laufwerks am Fahrzeug gleich der Führung einer Einzelachse. Längs- und Querspiel sowie der horizontale Ausschlag des Laufwerks werden durch das Spiel in der Achshalterführung begrenzt. Durch den so ermöglichten kleinen Achsstand wird eine möglichst große Annäherung an das Laufbild einer Einzelachse erzielt. Das Fehlen einer Drehpfanne oder eines Drehkranzes ermöglicht eine sehr niedrige Bauhöhe. Zur Erzielung dieser niedrigen Bauhöhe ist weiter die Auflage der Blatttragfeder in Querrichtung des Laufwerks vor die Achslager gelegt.From DE-PS 23 02 550 two-axle drives of the above-mentioned classification are known, in which the drive frame carries a vertically open axle holder guide, which is designed as a rectangle on the inside, at both transverse ends in its longitudinal center, and in which axle holder guide is fastened to the vehicle frame from above straight and flat axle bracket protrudes. In this known version of a two-axis drive, this drive is guided on the vehicle in the same way as a single axis. Longitudinal and transverse play as well as the horizontal deflection of the drive are limited by the play in the axle holder guide. The small wheelbase made possible in this way approximates the running pattern of a single axle as closely as possible. The lack of a rotating pan or a slewing ring enables a very low overall height. To achieve this low overall height, the support of the leaf support spring is placed in the transverse direction of the drive in front of the axle bearing.

Die Verbindung des Laufwerks mit der Ladebrücke erfolgt lediglich über je eine außen vor der Seitenwange an dieser längs gelagerten Blatttragfeder.The drive is only connected to the loading bridge by means of an outside front of the side wall on this longitudinally mounted leaf support spring.

Nachteilig bei dieser vorgenannten Ausführung für die Kombination von mehreren Laufwerken zu einer Laufwerkgruppe für Fahrzeuge mit hohen Ladegewichten ist die direkte Führung jedes Laufwerks am Fahrzeugrahmen oder der Ladebrücke. Der bei Kurvenfahrt erforderliche Ausdrehwinkel der einzelnen Laufwerke läßt sich nicht mehr durch Querspiel in der Laufwerkführung aufnehmen. Weiter ist von Nachteil, daß der Höhenversatz der einzelnen Laufwerke bei Gleisunebenheiten oder Rampenfahrt zu starken Unregelmäßigkeiten in der Achsbelastung führt.A disadvantage of this aforementioned embodiment for the combination of several drives to form a drive group for vehicles with high loading weights is the direct guidance of each drive on the vehicle frame or the loading bridge. The turning angle of the individual drives required when cornering can no longer be accommodated by lateral play in the drive guide. Another disadvantage is that the height offset of the individual drives leads to strong irregularities in the axle load when the track is uneven or when driving on a ramp.

Die Aufgabe vorliegender Erfindung bestand darin, Laufwerke der eingangs genannten Art zu Laufwerkgruppen zusammenzufassen und so unter dem Fahrzeugrahmen oder der Ladebrücke zu führen, daß der Ausdrehwinkel eines jeden Laufwerks und jeder Laufwerkgruppe bei Kurvenfahrt sich zwängungsfrei einstellen kann, daß ein exakter Achslastausgleich der Laufwerke jeder Laufwerkgruppe gewährleistet ist und daß die erforderlichen Verbindungselemente der einzelnen Laufwerke die Bauhöhe nicht nachteilig beeinflussen.The object of the present invention was to combine drives of the type mentioned at the beginning into drive groups and to guide them under the vehicle frame or the loading bridge in such a way that the angle of rotation of each drive and each drive group when cornering can be adjusted without constraint, that an exact axle load compensation of the drives of each drive group is guaranteed and that the required connecting elements of the individual drives do not adversely affect the overall height.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß die Laufwerke jeder Laufwerkgruppe durch einen in Längsmitte der Laufwerke angeordneten und gelenkig an diese gelagerten Verbindungsträger miteinander verbunden sind, wobei der Verbindungsträger gegenüber der Ladebrücke oder dem Fahrzeugrahmen mit Längs- und Querspiel zwischen vertikal nach unten weisenden Führungskonsolen der Ladebrücke geführt ist, und wobei die Queranschläge der Führungskonsolen innen ballig ausgeführt sind Dabei ist jeder Verbindungsträger an jedem Laufwerk sphärisch und mit Spiel gelagert. Hierdurch werden die Laufwerke bei Rampenfahrt zwängungsfrei an dem Verbindungsträger gelagert.This object is achieved in accordance with the invention in that the drives of each drive group are connected to one another by a connection carrier arranged in the longitudinal center of the drives and articulated to them, the connection carrier facing the loading bridge or the vehicle frame with longitudinal and transverse play between vertically downward Guide brackets of the loading bridge is guided, and wherein the transverse stops of the guide consoles are spherical on the inside. Each connection carrier on each drive is spherical and with play. As a result, the drives are freely supported on the connection carrier during ramp travel.

Das zur Erzielung von guten Laufeigenschaften erforderliche Längs- und Querspiel der Laufwerkgruppen gegenüber der Ladebrücke kann exakt vorgegeben werden. Hierbei werden die einander zugekehrten Enden jeder Blatttragfeder der Laufwerke jeder Laufwerkgruppe über ihre Schaken durch einen Ausgleichhebel miteinander verbunden, der an einer Konsole der Wagenbrücke gelagert ist.The longitudinal and transverse play of the drive groups in relation to the loading bridge, which is necessary to achieve good running properties, can be precisely specified. Here, the mutually facing ends of each leaf support spring of the drives of each group of drives connected to each other via their Schaken by a compensating lever which is mounted on a bracket of the carriage bridge.

Durch die Erfindung ist sichergestellt, daß die Bauhöhe der Laufwerkgruppe nicht höher ist als die eines Einzellaufwerks. Es ist weiter sichergestellt, daß auch bei assymmetrischen Laufwerken der ideelle Drehpunkt bei Querspielausnutzung genau definiert ist. Die Größe des Querspiels in der Laufwerkgruppe ist damit ebenfalls genau definiert. Der Achslastausgleich zwischen den Laufwerken jeder Laufwerkgruppe ist garantiert.The invention ensures that the overall height of the drive group is not higher than that of a single drive. It is further ensured that the ideal fulcrum is also precisely defined when using cross-play for asymmetrical drives. The size of the cross game in the drive group is also precisely defined. Axle load balancing between the drives in each drive group is guaranteed.

Die Queranschläge in den Führungskonsolen sind innen ballig ausgeführt. Durchdiese Maßnahme werden auch bei Kurvenfahrt exakte Querspiele ermöglicht.The cross stops in the guide consoles are crowned on the inside. This measure enables exact transverse play even when cornering.

Zwischen Führungskonsolen und Verbindungsträger sind in Laufwerkquerrichtung elastische Anschläge zwischengeschaltet. Diese elastischen Anschläge ermöglichen weiter eine Verbesserung der Laufeigenschaften des Fahrzeugs.Elastic stops are interposed in the transverse direction of the drive between the guide brackets and the connection carrier. These elastic stops further improve the running properties of the vehicle.

Einzelheiten der Erfindung werden in der Zeichnung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen erläutert.Details of the invention are explained in the drawing using exemplary embodiments.

Auf Querträgern 2 des Laufwerkrahmens ist in Laufwerklängsmitte in sphärischen Lagern 12 mit seinen Längsenden ein Verbindungsträger 13 gelagert, der die beiden Laufwerke jeder Laufwerkgruppe gelenkig miteinander verbindet. Die Gelenke 12 sind dabei mit definiertem Längsspiel versehen. In seiner Quermitte ist der Verbindungsträger 13 in vertikal nach unten weisenden, an der Ladebrücke 10 oder dem Fahrzeugrahmen angeordneten Führungskonsolen 14 mit Längs- und Querspiel so geführt, daß die Laufwerkgruppe gegenüber der Ladebrücke oder dem Fahrzeugrahmen mit exaktem Längs- und Querspiel versehen ist. Die Führungskonsolen 14 sind dabei auf ihrer Innenseite ballig ausgeführt. Nicht dargestellte, elastische Anschläge können in Querrichtung zwischen Verbindungsträger 13 und Führungskonsolen 14 zwischengeschaltet sein.As shown in the drawing, each drive of each drive group essentially consists of the drive frame formed from the side cheeks 1 and cross member 2, the wheel sets 4 being clamped in the side cheeks 1 via axle bearings 3. On the side cheeks 1, spring brackets 5 are arranged on the outside, on which a longitudinal leaf support spring 6 is mounted directly in a two-axis running gear and with its spring collar 8 in a three-axis running gear with the interposition of an articulated traverse 7 arranged on the spring brackets 5. Each leaf support spring 6 is connected via its outer shackles 9 directly to the loading bridge 10 or the vehicle frame. The inner, mutually facing ends of each leaf support spring 6 are connected to the loading bridge 10 or the vehicle frame via a compensating lever 11, which is vertically articulated in a bracket 15 of the loading bridge 10 or the vehicle frame. On cross members 2 of the Drive frame is mounted in the longitudinal center of the drive in spherical bearings 12 with its longitudinal ends a connecting support 13 which connects the two drives of each drive group in an articulated manner. The joints 12 are provided with a defined longitudinal play. In its transverse center, the connection carrier 13 is guided in longitudinally downward-facing guide consoles 14 arranged on the loading bridge 10 or the vehicle frame with longitudinal and transverse play in such a way that the drive group is provided with exact longitudinal and transverse play relative to the loading bridge or the vehicle frame. The guide consoles 14 are spherical on their inside. Elastic stops, not shown, can be interposed in the transverse direction between the connection carrier 13 and guide brackets 14.

Die in der Figur 3 dargestellte Laufwerkgruppe besteht aus zwei zweiachsigen Laufwerken. Jedes Laufwerk besteht wiederum im wesentlichen aus den Seitenwangen 1, einem diese verbindenden Querträger 2 und den über Achslager 3 in den Seitenwangen 1 eingespannten Radsätzen 4. Außen an jeder Seitenwange 1 ist eine Federkonsole 5 angeordnet, auf der über den Federbund 8 die Blatttragfeder 6 gelagert ist. Jedes äußere Ende jeder Blatttragfeder 6 ist wieder über ein Schakenpaar 9 direkt an der Ladebrücke gelagert. Die einander zugekehrten Enden jeder Blatttragfeder 6 lagern über je ein Schakenpaar 9 an einem gelenkig an der Ladebrücke gelagerten Ausgleichhebel 11. Über auf den Querträger 2 des Laufwerkrahmens angeordneten sphärischen Gelenken 12 werden die Laufwerke der Laufwerkgruppe durch einen Verbindungsträger 13 gelenkig miteinander verbunden. Dieser Verbindungsträger 13 wird wie bei vorstehend beschriebenem Ausführungsbeispiel in vertikal nach unten weisenden, an der Ladebrücke angeordneten Führungskonsolen 14 mit Längsund Querspiel geführt. Die Anordnung und Ausbildung der Führungskonsolen 14 erfolgt bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel in gleicher Form wie bei dem in den Figuren 1 und 2 beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel.The drive group shown in Figure 3 consists of two two-axis drives. Each drive in turn consists essentially of the side cheeks 1, a cross member 2 connecting them and the wheel sets 4 clamped in the side cheeks 1 via axle bearings 3.
