Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is to allow automatic cleaning, using a machine, of the railway, tramway or metro tracks, in and out of stations, which also collects light waste, paper , tickets, etc., as heavy waste, bottles, metal cans as well as filings and chips from the reprofiling of the rails.
  • Another object of the invention is to replace the manual collection of waste by a faster mechanical collection, less expensive and above all not exposing personnel to the dangers of the track.
  • Another object of the invention is also to reduce the size of the machine or of the track cleaning device and above all to reduce its power and consumption.
  • the present invention relates to mechanized equipment for cleaning railway tracks, trams, metros, funiculars, etc. tending to obviate the aforementioned drawbacks of existing machines and which is distinguished by the characteristics listed in claim 1.
  • the attached drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example two embodiments of the track cleaning equipment according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 partially illustrates a power train of a service train coupled to a wagon, the machine carrying part of the cleaning equipment while another part of this is placed between the power train and the wagon and towed by said motor car along the track.
  • Figure 2 illustrates on a larger scale the portion towed along the track of the cleaning equipment in an execution where it is arranged in a towed vehicle.
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view along line A-A of FIG. 2.
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2 of a second embodiment of the cleaning equipment.
  • FIG. 5 is a section along line B-B in FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 6 is a section along line C-C of FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the rear part of a locomotive or driving rail vehicle 1 driving along the track a wagon 2 by means of a coupling 3.
  • the track cleaning device is located, in this embodiment, between the power train 1 and the wagon 2.
  • This cleaning device is in the form of a box 4 without bottom guided and carried by the rails by means of rollers 5.5 '.
  • the box 4 is connected to the chassis of the rear part of the powerplant 1 and to the chassis of the front part of the wagon via 6.6 'lifting members such as hydraulic cylinders.
  • the box 4 is driven along the track by a drawbar 7 attached to the power train 1.
  • the jacks 6, 6 ' make it possible to raise the box 4 for walking up and down, for example.
  • the box 4 is placed under vacuum by a suction device arranged in a waste container 12 located on the power train 1.
  • the suction device comprises a cyclone associated with a suitable filter which makes it possible to retain the heaviest waste of first, then the dust then.
  • the suction device is connected to the casing 4 via a suction duct 10 comprising a bellows 11 which makes it possible to compensate for the relative movements between the casing 4 and the powerplant 1.
  • the upper part of the casing 4 receives a concave part 20 forming a suction hood which makes it possible to concentrate the waste towards the mouth of the suction duct 10.
  • Rubber skirts 8.8 ′ surround the casing 4 in its lower part and promote the depression of the latter by increasing its tightness.
  • Two 13,13 'shaped brushes are arranged inside the box 4 one in front of the other in the direction of the axis of the rail, so to overlap each row of rails.
  • These brushes 13, 13 ′ are driven in rotation by motors and rotate in opposite directions with respect to each other as indicated by the arrows F.
  • a brush 14 of smaller size driven in rotation by a motor 15 is arranged between the rail and the axis of the track.
  • the axis of rotation 19 (fig. 2) of the brush 14 forms an acute angle with a vertical axis perpendicular to the plane formed by the rails. In this working position, only part of the periphery of the brush 14 is in contact with the ballast.
  • This brush is tiltable by a device which will be described with reference to Figure 2 and which allows to bring the axis of rotation of the brush in a substantially vertical plane, so that the brush 14 is no longer in contact with the ballast .
  • the box 4 also has two waste drawers 16,16 'fixed against the frame of the box respectively at the front and at the rear of the latter near the guide rollers 5,5'. The operation of the device will now be explained with reference to FIG. 2.
  • the brushes 13, 13 ′ are rotated in opposite directions to one another so that their parts in contact with the rail move towards one another.
  • the waste located near a line of rail is first brought to an area between the contact point of the brushes and the rail, then projected towards the upper part of the box 20.
  • the most waste light once in this area are sucked by the suction device and are evacuated through the conduit 10.
  • the heaviest waste such as metal grinding residue or the most bulky such as bottles for example are not sucked but driven by the movement of the brushes 13,13 ', and fall back into the lateral recovery drawers 16,16'.
  • the central brush 14 has the function of projecting the waste located in the space contained between the longitudinal median axis of the track and a rail, in the direction of the brushes 13,13 'which drive them towards the upper zone of the box as described above.
  • the axis 19 of the brush 14 forming an acute angle with a vertical axis in the working position, only a part of the periphery of the brush 14 is in contact with the ballast. In this way, by adapting the direction of rotation of the brush according to whether it is inclined forward or backward, the waste is projected tangentially to the periphery of the brush 14 in the direction of the space between the contact point of the brushes 13,13 'and the rail. Thus, it is possible with this equipment to process both the waste located directly near the rails and that located between the rails of a track.
  • the angular position of the central brushes 14 can be adjusted by means of jacks 17 whose cylinder is integral with the chassis of the box 4 and whose rod actuates an intermediate piece 18 carrying the brush 14.
  • the angle formed between the axis of rotation 19 of the brush 14 and a vertical axis perpendicular to the axis of the track is modified.
  • Figure 3 shows in section how the brushes 13,13 'are shaped. These shaped brushes comprise on each side of the rail head fibers of sufficient length to reach the ground in the service position, while the central part of the brush which is in direct contact with the rail head fibers of a length suitable for flushing said mushroom in the working position.
  • the arrows F1 and F2 of FIG. 3 indicate the direction of rotation of the central brushes 14, direction of rotation which results from the function which these brushes 14 fulfill, namely to bring back the waste situated in the center of the path towards the brushes 13,13 'to ensure their projection towards the upper zone 10 of suction of the box 4.
  • FIGS 4,5 and 6 illustrate a second embodiment of the track cleaning equipment according to the present invention.
  • the operating principle is identical to the first embodiment, however both the brushes 13, 13 'and the brush 14 are arranged so that they can be raised during work on the track.
  • the front brushes 13 and rear brushes 13 ′ can be raised to the high position independently of one another.
  • the central brush 14 is integral with the frame carrying the front brush 13 and is therefore liftable with the brush 13.
  • This arrangement has the advantage of being able to raise one or the other of the brushes, for example to avoid an obstacle on the track without having to raise the whole box by means of the cylinders 6,6 '.
  • known type obstacle detectors (not shown) can be incorporated to the equipment and order the automatic lifting of the brushes 13,14 or 13 'in the presence of an obstacle on the track.
  • the brushes 13 ′ are mounted around an axis 22 carried by a support piece 23.
  • This support piece 23 is pivoted at its end opposite the axis of the brush around a frame 24 integral with the casing 4.
  • a motor 25 provided with a drive pinion 26 is fixed on a plate 27 arranged on the support piece 23.
  • a second pinion 28 on the axis of the brush 22 allows the drive to rotate of the latter thanks to a chain or a toothed belt 29.
  • a jack 30 whose cylinder is integral with the frame 24 and whose rod is fixed in the support piece 23 allows, when actuated, to raise the support piece 23 and therefore the brush 13 ′ in the high position as indicated by dotted lines on the right-hand side of FIG. 4.
  • the support piece 23 has a lug 31 having a bore 32.
  • a locking member 33 fixed to the upright 24 has an axis sliding 34 against the action of an elastic member e (fig. 5).
  • e an elastic member
  • the arrangement of the brushes 13 is identical to that described above.
  • the support piece 23 also has at its end close to the axis 22 of the brush 13 a fixing plate 36 carrying the brush 14.
  • the brush 14 is pivotally mounted around an axis 38 on a piece of holding 37.
  • a jack 39 the cylinder of which is integral with the plate 36 and the rod of which is connected to the brush 14, makes it possible to vary the angular position of said brush in a vertical plane parallel to the axis of the track.
  • the speed of rotation of the brushes 13, 13 ′ which rotate in opposite directions with respect to each other may be identical for each brush or, on the contrary, these speeds of rotation may be different.
  • a servo-control (not shown) of the speed of the brushes 13, 13 ′, 14 as a function of the working speed of the equipment along the track, servo-control allowing the tangential speed of the periphery of each brush 13.13 'relative to the rail is the same regardless of the speed of movement of the equipment along the track.
  • the central brush 14 has been shown in the drawings by a single brush of sufficient size to cover the entire space between the axis of the track and each rail. It is obvious that other arrangements are possible, for example by providing several brushes 14 of smaller dimension to more effectively cover the surface located between the axis of the track and each rail.
  • FIG. 1 For reasons of space, the equipment has been shown in FIG. 1 between a locomotor vehicle 1 and a wagon 2, this equipment can naturally be arranged thanks to its reduced bulk under a self-propelled railway vehicle or be integrated into a trolley towed along the track.
