Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Be- und Entladeeinrichtung für Züge.The invention relates to a loading and unloading device for trains.

Die Erfindung ist überall dort anwendbar, wo Züge, vorzugsweise Magnetbahnzüge, Ladeeinheiten transportieren und diese be- und entladen werden müssen. Unter Ladeeinheiten sollen beispielsweise Überseecontainer, Binnencontainer, Wechselbrücken oder Trailer verstanden werden. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Anlage kann des Be- und Entladen von mehreren Zugeinheiten in hohem Tempo erfolgen. Die Vorrichtung funktioniert vollautomatisch gesteuert und mit minimalem Energieaufwand.The invention can be used wherever trains, preferably magnetic train trains, Transport loading units and load and unload them have to. Under loading units, for example, overseas containers, inland containers, Swap bodies or trailers can be understood. With the invention System can load and unload multiple train units done at high speed. The device works fully automatically controlled and with minimal energy consumption.

Für Züge, die Ladeeinheiten vorzugsweise in Form von Containern transportieren, besteht die Notwendigkeit, die mit dem Zug transportierten Container rasch zu entladen und den Zug sofort wieder mit neuen Containern zu bestücken.For trains that transport loading units, preferably in the form of containers, there is a need for the containers transported by train quickly unloaded and the train immediately filled with new containers.

Aus DE 43 29 470 A1 ist ein Umschlaggerät für Großbehälter, wie Container, Wechselbehälter oder Sattelschlepperanhänger, mit an einem Kran oder einer Brücke verfahrbarer Laufkatze, an der über eine Hubvorrichtung eine Lastaufnahmevorrichtung heb- und senkbar befestigt ist, bekannt, mit der eine Be- und Entladung von Magnetbahnzügen grundsätzlich möglich wäre, wobei bei einer gleichzeitigen Entladung aller Container von einem Zug eine Vielzahl derartiger Umschlaggeräte vorhanden sein müßte oder aber die Umschlagzeit zunimmt.DE 43 29 470 A1 describes a handling device for large containers, such as containers, Swap bodies or semi-trailer trailers, with a crane or one Bridge movable trolley, on which a lifting device Load suspension device is fixed raised and lowered, known with the in principle, loading and unloading of magnetic railway trains would be possible, with a simultaneous unloading of all containers from a train A large number of such handling devices should be available or else Turnaround time increases.

Aus DE 44 47 437 C2 geht ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zur Verbindung des systemeigenen Fahrweges einer Magnetschnellbahn hervor, bei dem Platten oder Elemente seitlich in Richtung auf den Zug ausfahrbar sind. Diese Vorrichtungen dienen jedoch nicht der Be- und Entladung von Lasten oder Behältern. DE 44 47 437 C2 describes a method and a device for connection of the native route of a magnetic high-speed train, at the plates or elements can be extended laterally towards the train. However, these devices are not used for loading and unloading loads or containers.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Anlage zu entwickeln, mit der das Be- und Entladen von ganzen Zügen zeit-, platz- und energiesparend möglich ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to develop a system with which Loading and unloading of entire trains saves time, space and energy is.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Einrichtung nach den Merkmalen des 1. Patentanspruches gelöst.This object is achieved by a device according to the features of the first claim solved.

Die Unteransprüche geben vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Einrichtung wieder.The subclaims represent advantageous designs of the device.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung sieht eine Be- und Entladeeinrichtung für Züge, bestehend aus dem Zug und Absetzmöglichkeiten beidseitig des Fahrweges vor, wobei die Ladeeinheiten auf lasttragenden Plattformen auf der Ladefläche des Zuges transportiert werden. Bei den lasttragenden Plattformen kann es sich um ebene Plattformen aus Profilen handeln, wobei die lasttragenden Plattformen in ihrer Breite so bemessen sind, daß sie zur Entladung beidseitig Absetzmöglichkeiten überfahren. Diese Absetzmöglichkeiten können Schienen sein, die auf einem Betonfundament oder einer anderen geeigneten Befestigung wie Stahlträgern beidseitig des Fahrweges angeordnet sind. Diese Schienen können in Richtung auf den Fahrweg ausfahrbar sein. Das setzt voraus, daß der Zug Ausnehmungen aufweist, der Platz für diese Schienen bietet. Es besteht aber auch die Möglichkeit, daß die Plattformen über die Breite des Zuges hinausreicht, so daß die Schienen mit ihrem Fundament oder ihrer Befestigungsmöglichkeit eben oder zurückgesetzt abschließen.The solution according to the invention provides a loading and unloading device for trains, consisting of the train and drop-off options on both sides of the route before, the loading units on load-bearing platforms on the Loading area of the train can be transported. With the load-bearing platforms can be flat platforms made of profiles, whereby the load-bearing platforms are dimensioned in their width so that they can be unloaded Drive over to both sides. These withdrawal options can be rails that are on a concrete foundation or another suitable fastening such as steel beams arranged on both sides of the route are. These rails can be extended in the direction of the route be. This presupposes that the train has recesses that Offers space for these rails. But there is also the possibility that the platforms extend beyond the width of the train so that the rails with its foundation or its mounting option flat or reset to lock.

Sind beidseitig des Fahrweges Schienen vorhanden, so setzt das voraus, daß beidseitig der lasttragenden Plattformen Räder oder Rollen vorhanden sind, auf dem die Plattform sich, die Schienen entlang, bewegt. Sofern die Breite der Plattform mit den Rollelemten die Breite des Zuges nicht überschreitet, hat das den Vorteil, daß das bei der Breite der Infrastruktur des Fahrweges nicht berücksichtigt werden muß.If there are rails on both sides of the track, this presupposes that wheels or castors are present on both sides of the load-bearing platforms on which the platform moves along the rails. If the Width of the platform with the rolling elements does not exceed the width of the train, has the advantage that this is due to the breadth of the infrastructure of the Route must not be taken into account.

Eine andere Ausführung der Plattformen sieht vor, daß die Plattformen keine Rollelemente oder Räder beidseitig aufweisen, sondern mit geeigneten Halteflächen versehen sind und die Rollelemente sowie deren Antriebe als Absetzmöglichkeiten für die lasttragenden Plattformen beiderseits des Fahrweges im Entladebereich angeordnet sind. Das hat den Vorteil, daß Rollenelemente und ihre Antriebe nicht mit dem Zug ständig mittransportiert werden müssen.Another version of the platforms provides that the platforms do not Have rolling elements or wheels on both sides, but with suitable holding surfaces are provided and the rolling elements and their drives as deposit options for the load-bearing platforms on both sides of the track are arranged in the unloading area. This has the advantage that roller elements and their drives are not constantly transported by train have to.

Das Entladen eines Zuges kann auf unterschiedliche Weise erfolgen. Zum einen in der Weise, daß der Zug mit lasttragenden Plattformen und Ladeeinheilen in die Entladeeinrichtung mit den genannten Absetzmöglichkeiten einfährt und seine Fahrhöhe gegenüber dem Fahrweg mit geeigneten Mitteln, beispielsweise Federn, Hydraulik, Pneumatik oder Magneten, absenkt, wobei die lasttragenden Plattformen auf den Absetzmöglichkeiten, die sich unter der Ausrangierhöhe des Zuges befinden, abgestellt werden. Auf den Absetzmöglichkeiten können die lasttragenden Plattformen alle gleichzeitig übernommen und über den Zug verfahren werden. Dieses Verfahren erfolgt in der Regel in Richtung auf einen Lager- oder Umschlagplatz. Von diesem Lager- oder Umschlagplatz können neue und anders beladene lasttragende Plattformen über den Zug gefahren werden, der dann wieder in den Fahrzustand übergeht, wobei er seine Höhe gegenüber dem Fahrweg ändert und dabei gleichzeitig alle lasttragenden Plattformen mit Ladeeinheiten übernimmt.A train can be unloaded in different ways. To the one in such a way that the train with load-bearing platforms and loading units in the unloading device with the mentioned setting options retracts and its driving height compared to the route with suitable means, for example springs, hydraulics, pneumatics or magnets, lowered, the load-bearing platforms being based on the settling opportunities below the scrapping height of the train. On the The load-bearing platforms can all be set down at the same time be taken over and moved over the train. This is done usually towards a storage or transshipment point. Of this Storage or transshipment point can be new and differently loaded load carriers Platforms are driven over the train, which then returns to the driving state passes, changing its height relative to the route and taking over all load-bearing platforms with loading units at the same time.

Eine andere Möglichkeit der Entladung sieht vor, daß sich beim Einfahren des Zuges in den Entladebereich die Absetzmöglichkeiten an die lasttragenden Plattformen oder die mit ihnen verbundenen Elemente, beispielsweise Räder oder Rollen, annähern und die lasttragenden Plattformen übernehmen.
Das kann ausgeführt werden, indem sich beispielsweise Schienen an das Niveau von Rollen an die lasttragenden Plattformen annähern, so daß diese auf ihnen entlangrollen, ohne noch auf dem Zug aufzuliegen.
Eine andere Möglichkeit besteht darin, die lasttragenden Plattformen von im Fahrtempo des Zuges mitlaufenden Ladeträgern zu übernehmen, die auf das Niveau der lasttragenden Plattformen aufsteigen.Another possibility of unloading provides that when the train enters the unloading area, the placement options approach the load-bearing platforms or the elements connected to them, for example wheels or rollers, and take over the load-bearing platforms.
This can be done by, for example, rails approaching the level of rollers on the load-bearing platforms so that they roll along them without resting on the train.
Another possibility is to take over the load-bearing platforms from the load carriers moving at the speed of the train, which rise to the level of the load-bearing platforms.

An den lasttragenden Plattformen können Verriegelungselemente angebracht sein, die gleichzeitig oder nacheinander eine Verriegelung mit dem Zug herstellen, wobei der Antrieb der Verriegelungselemente elektrisch, pneumatisch oder hydraulisch ausgeführt sein kann. Zu den Ladeeinheiten hin besteht auch die Möglichkeit, eine Verriegelung zwischen der lasttragenden Plattform und den Ladeeinheiten zu schaffen.Locking elements can be attached to the load-bearing platforms be the one that interlocks with the Establish train, the drive of the locking elements electrically, can be carried out pneumatically or hydraulically. To the loading units There is also the possibility of a lock between the load-bearing To create platform and loading units.

Um möglichst viele lasttragende Plattformen auf einen Zug kontinuierlich hintereinander anordnen zu können, besteht die Möglichkeit, lasttragende Plattformen auch über mehrere Zugteile anzuordnen. Dazu ist es notwendig zwischen dem Zug und der lasttragenden Plattform Klemmleisten anzuordnen, die zum einen fest mit den Zugelementen verbunden sind und eine Drehachse in der lasttragenden Plattform aufweisen, so daß bei Kurvenfahrten ein Bewegungsausgleich zwischen der lasttragenden Plattform und dem Zugelement erfolgen kann. Weiterhin ist es erforderlich, daß die lasttragende Plattform auf ihrer anderen Seite Ausgleichsrollen aufweist, die auf einem Träger oder aber einer geeigneten anderen Möglichkeit, beispielsweise der Klemmleiste, auf dem Zugelement abrollen kann.Around as many load-bearing platforms as possible on one train To be able to arrange one behind the other, there is the possibility of load bearing Platforms can also be arranged over several train parts. For this it is necessary to arrange terminal strips between the train and the load-bearing platform, which are firmly connected to the traction elements and one Have axis of rotation in the load-bearing platform, so that when cornering a movement compensation between the load-bearing platform and the Tension element can take place. Furthermore, it is necessary that the load-bearing Platform on its other side has balancing rollers on one Carrier or a suitable other possibility, for example the Terminal strip on which the tension element can roll.

Erfindungswesentlich ist, daß sowohl die Container mit den lasttragenden Plattformen als auch die lasttragenden Plattformen mit dem Zug verriegelbar sind, wobei die Verriegelungen nacheinander und gleichzeitig lösbar sind. Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung erlaubt es, die lasttragenden Plattformen mit der Last von den Auflageflächen aufzunehmen, den Zug darunter zu verfahren und bei Bedarf einen kompletten anderen Zug unter die lasttragenden Plattformen zu fahren.It is essential to the invention that both the containers with the load-bearing Platforms as well as the load-bearing platforms can be locked by train are, the locks are released one after the other and at the same time. The solution according to the invention allows the load-bearing platforms to be carried the load from the support surfaces to move the train underneath and if necessary, a completely different train under the load bearing Platforms to drive.

Die vorgeschlagene Lösung hat den Vorteil, daß das Be- und Entladen ganzer Züge zeit-, platz- und energiesparend erfolgen kann.The proposed solution has the advantage that loading and unloading whole Trains can save time, space and energy.

Die Figur 1 zeigt einen Schnitt durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung am Beispiel eines Magnetbahnzuges, wobei ein Container 1 als Ladeeinheit auf der lasttragenden Plattform 4 abgestellt ist und mit dieser an seinen Ecken 10 verriegelt wurde. Die lasttragende Plattform 4, die aus Profilstahl besteht, ist mit vier Rädern 5 ausgeführt, die beidseitig über die Breite der Magnetbahn 2 hinausragt. Zur Aufnahme der Räder 5 beidseitig des Magnetbahnfahrweges 3 sind auf einem Fundament 11 Laufschienen 6 angeordnet. Nach Absenken des Magnetbahnzuges 2 wird die lasttragende Plattform 4 mit dem Container 1 mit den Rädern 5 auf den Schienen 6 abgesetzt und kann in die Verladestation verfahren werden. Um die lasttragende Plattform 4 sicher zu lagern, sind am Magnetbahnzug 2 Befestigungsschienen 9 angebracht, die von Verriegelungselementen 7 umfasst werden, die mittels Zylinder 14 verstellt und verriegelt werden. Um die Beweglichkeit der lasttragenden Plattform 4 gegenüber dem Magnetbahnzug 2 zu sichern, sind diese Verriegelungselemente 7 auf der Klemmleiste 15 angeordnet, die gegenüber der lasttragenden Plattform 4 einen Drehpunkt 8 aufweist. Auf der anderen Seite weist die lasttragende Plattform 4 Ausgleichsrollen 12 an Lagern 13 auf, wobei die Ausgleichsrollen 12 auf den Befestigungsschienen 9 des Magnetbahnzuges 2 geführt werden. Damit ist gewährleitstet, daß bei Kurvenfahrten das Verschieben der Magnetbahnzugteile 2 gegeneinander von einer lasttragenden Plattform 4, die über mehrere Magnetbahnzugteile 2 gelegt wurde, ausgeglichen werden kann.FIG. 1 shows a section through the solution according to the invention using the example a magnetic train, with a container 1 as a loading unit on the load-bearing platform 4 is parked and with this at its corners 10 has been locked. The load-bearing platform 4, which consists of section steel, is with four wheels 5 running on both sides across the width of the magnetic track 2 protrudes. To accommodate the wheels 5 on both sides of the magnetic track 3 11 rails 6 are arranged on a foundation. After lowering of the magnetic train 2, the load-bearing platform 4 with the Container 1 with the wheels 5 placed on the rails 6 and can in the Loading station to be moved. To secure the load-bearing platform 4 store, 2 mounting rails 9 are attached to the magnetic train, which of locking elements 7, which are adjusted by means of cylinders 14 and be locked. The mobility of the load-bearing platform 4 to secure against the magnetic train 2, these locking elements 7 arranged on the terminal block 15, opposite the load-bearing platform 4 has a pivot point 8. On the other hand the load-bearing platform 4 balancing rollers 12 on bearings 13, wherein the compensating rollers 12 on the mounting rails 9 of the magnetic train 2 are performed. This ensures that when cornering the displacement of the magnetic train parts 2 against each other by a load-bearing Platform 4, which was placed over several magnetic train parts 2, can be compensated.
