Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning machine for continuously picking up and cleaning the ballast bedding of a track with a machine frame supported on rail bogies, a clearing chain for ballast pick-up and exposing a formation, and a screening plant for ballast cleaning, with a conveyor unit connected to the screening system and running in the machine longitudinal direction for transporting the cleaned ballast in a chute provided in the area of the clearing chain and having outlet openings, each with a drive-in conveyor belt and with a height-adjustable and side-adjustable track lifting device for lifting the track.
  • Such a cleaning machine is already known from CH-A-651 869 and 651 870.
  • the cleaned ballast transported by the conveyor unit then arrives in a distributor device arranged in the area of the clearing chain, to which two chutes arranged one behind the other in the machine longitudinal direction are assigned.
  • the distributor device has a controllable distributor element in the form of a flap, through which a certain proportion of the cleaned ballast can be deflected into the front or rear chute in accordance with the excavation depth and the desired new filling height.
  • the ballast diverted into the front chute falls directly behind the clearing chain onto the exposed surface and is leveled and compacted with the help of a subsequent leveling device.
  • ballast passes through the second chute of the distributor device onto a distributor conveyor belt running in the longitudinal direction of the machine and is dropped onto the track directly in front of the rearmost carriage of the cleaning machine in order to fill the intermediate compartments.
  • this known cleaning machine has the disadvantage that the cleaned ballast to be thrown off cannot be metered exactly.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning machine of the type described in the introduction with which a more precise metering of the ballast to be thrown onto the track is possible in order to achieve a more uniform track position.
  • each outlet opening of the chute has a throw-in conveyor belt with its own drive designed for a variable conveying speed for the discharge of the cleaned ballast onto the exposed one Is assigned to the formation.
  • This new solution makes it possible to meter the ballast quantities in the discharge area of the infeed conveyor belts largely independently of the usually irregular quantities of ballast transported by the conveyor unit to the chute. This means that a largely uniformly high ballast bedding can be produced according to a track plan. Since each outlet opening is assigned its own throw-in conveyor belt, these can also be used as a closure of the chute when they are at a standstill, so that the ballast discharge can be interrupted completely for a short time.
  • the discharge quantity to the left or right of the respective rail can be varied with a correspondingly slight pivoting of the corresponding infeed conveyor belt.
  • ballast distributors are attached to the track lifting device according to claim 6, then the throw-in conveyor belts can be swung out laterally without hindrance. In addition, the ballast distributors are automatically centered correctly over the respective rail when the track lifting device is lowered.
  • the discharge height of the entire ballast bed by dividing into four adjacent zones is particularly largely adaptable to the requirements of the track plan.
  • the width of the sleeper supports can be varied quickly and easily, whereby the excess ballast can also be shifted into the flank area if the ballast suddenly becomes too large by swiveling the respective outer side wall.
  • the elastic scraper elements can also be used to automatically clean the top of the sleeper from gravel stones.
  • the cleaning machine 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 consists of an elongated first machine frame 3 supported on rail bogies 2 and a second machine frame 5 releasably connected to it by a coupling, forming a sieve carriage 4.
  • Cleaning machine 1 of sieve carriage 4 supported on rail bogies 7 is arranged at the front and has an energy center 8 and a driving cabin 9.
  • Another driving cabin 10 and an energy center 11 are located at the rear end of the machine 1.
  • a working cabin 12 with a Control device 13 is provided in a section of first machine frame 3 that is cranked upward.
  • an endlessly designed clearing chain 14 which is height-adjustable and rotatable by drives is articulated on the machine frame 3.
  • a track lifting unit 18 which can be adjusted in height and to the side by drives.
  • a further track lifting device 19 Height and side adjustable drives connected to the machine frame 3.
  • a vibrator designed as an unbalance exciter with a hydraulic drive is connected to the track lifting device 19. This is articulated to the machine frame 3 via a carrier 20 running in the longitudinal direction of the machine.
  • the track lifting device 19 connected to the vibrator is immediately preceded by discharge ends 21 of two throw-in conveyor belts 22, 23 for the discharge of cleaned ballast in the working direction.
  • a ballast distributor 24 connected to the ballast distributor for the ballast distribution.
  • This has in each case an insertion opening 25 in its upper end region and two outlet openings 26 located above the sleeper support region and lying next to one another in the cross-machine direction (see FIG. 2) in the lower end region.
  • the front end region of each throw-in conveyor belt 22, 23 in the working direction is mounted so as to be pivotable about a vertical axis 27 in the region of an outlet opening of a chute 28.
  • this In its upper end region, this has a single receiving opening 29 (see FIG. 2), to which a conveyor unit 30 running in the machine longitudinal direction is connected. In its front end area, this has a ballast store 31, to the throw-in area of which a further conveyor belt 32 connected to the sieve carriage 4 connects.
  • a conveyor belt arrangement 33 provided for the transport of the contaminated ballast is composed of three conveyor belts.
  • Two screening plants 34, 35 arranged on the screening carriage 4 can each be set to vibrate independently of one another by their own drives.
  • a conveyor unit is used to remove the overburden.
  • a machine-specific reference system 37 is provided for the height guidance of the clearing chain 14 and the track lifting device 19, which, for example in the form of communicating tubes, produces a horizontal measuring base formed by the rail running gear 2. Since this measuring system has already been described in US Pat. No. 4,432,284 and is not the subject of the invention, a more detailed description is not given.
  • a tamping unit 38 with tamping tools having pimple plates running in the machine longitudinal direction is arranged on each machine longitudinal side. These are designed to be pivotable and height-adjustable by a drive 39 about an axis running in the longitudinal direction of the machine.
  • a travel drive 40 is used for continuous machine advance.
  • the conveyor unit 30 is arranged centrally on the machine frame 3 in the machine longitudinal direction.
  • the discharge end 41 is located above the receiving opening 29 of the chute 28.
  • This is arranged with its upper region in a section of the machine frame 3 which is formed only from a central support frame 42 running in the longitudinal direction of the machine.
  • Each of the two throw-in conveyor belts 22, 23 is arranged above a rail 43 of the track 15.
  • a ballast distributor 24 with an insertion opening 25 located centrally above the rail 43 and two outlet openings 26 lying next to one another in the cross-machine direction is assigned to each discharge end of an insertion conveyor belt 22, 23.
  • each throw-in conveyor belt 22 or 23 is fastened to the chute 28 directly in the region of the outlet opening 45 by means of a rotating ring 44.
  • Each outlet opening 45 having a height X is delimited on the one hand by an upper run 46 of the throw-in conveyor belt 22, 23 and on the other hand by the lower end of the turntable 44.
  • a drive 48 is designed to be infinitely controllable to achieve different conveying speeds.
  • a connection 49 is used to fasten the support frame 47 to the slewing ring 44.
  • the contaminated ballast is thrown onto the two screening plants 34, 35 and cleaned by the conveyor belt arrangement 33.
  • the cleaned ballast reaches the chute 28 via the conveyor belts 32 and 30 and from there to the two chute conveyor belts 22, 23 which run in the longitudinal direction of the machine and are each arranged above a rail of the track 15.
  • the ballast thrown by these is finally thrown by the two ballast distributors 24 onto the exposed formation.
  • the chute 28 is at least partially filled with crushed stone.
  • level indicators known per se are expediently arranged.
  • the delivery of a uniformly high layer of ballast onto the corresponding infeed conveyor belt 22, 23 is always ensured, with the circulation speed remaining the same.
  • the two drives 48 can be acted upon differently for a different rotational speed of the conveyor belts.
  • the operator who has either a direct view or, for example, an indirect view of the ballast discharge area through a video camera, can vary the ballast discharge quantities for the left or right half of the ballast bed.
  • the track 15 is continuously set in horizontal and transverse vibrations to the machine longitudinal direction with the aid of the track lifting device 19 and at the same time lowered in connection with a transmitter of the reference system 37 to a uniform height.
  • the vertical load required for the controlled lowering of the track 15 is brought about by the drives which are articulated on the machine frame 3.
  • the track position determined by the track lifting device 19 is secured by the immediately subsequent use of the two tamping units 38 opposite one another in the transverse direction. This is done by continuously scooping up ballast located in the lower flank area into the threshold front area in combination with a final compacting effect.
  • the tamping tools are then lifted up slightly and, in this position, are laterally pivoted outwards again and into the lower flank area, where the essentially elliptical movement of the pimple plates is repeated continuously.
  • the lateral displacement resistance of the track 15 is additionally improved.
  • infeed conveyor belts 50 to 53 are arranged next to one another in the machine or track transverse direction and are each fastened independently of one another about a vertical axis 54 to the total of four outlet openings of a chute 55.
  • Each drop conveyor 50 to 53 can also be assigned its own pivoting drive.
  • a ballast distributor 56 shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 has an end wall 58 which is connected to a rail tunnel 57 and runs vertically and runs transversely to the machine longitudinal direction.
  • This end wall is connected to a side wall 61 at each of the two transverse ends by a hinge 59 having a vertical axis 60.
  • Each side wall 61 is connected in its lower end region to a multiplicity of vertically projecting, elastic stripping elements 62.
  • a blocking device 63 with a plug pin is provided to block the position of each side wall 61 with respect to the end wall 58.
  • the elastic stripping elements 62 rest on the upper edge of a threshold 65 connected to rails 64.
  • the sleeper supports for supporting the sleepers 65 are designated by 66 (FIG. 7).
  • each ballast distributor 56 assigned to a rail 64 is connected to the track lifting device 19.
  • the height of the end wall 58 and the two side walls 61 is higher than the distance between the upper edge of the rail and a lower belt 67 of the insert conveyor belt 22.
  • the width of the sleeper supports 66 created by the ballast can be varied by correspondingly adjusting the angle enclosed by the side wall 61 and end wall 58.
  • the excess ballast can flow unhindered into the threshold front or flank area through a correspondingly wide opening of the respective outer side wall 61 (see dash-dotted position).
  • the scraping elements 62 resting on the upper edge of the sleeper automatically remove the ballast stones from the upper side of the sleeper.
