AUTOMATIC CENTRAL BUFFER COUPLING FOR RAIL VEHICLES
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to an automatic central buffer coupling for rail vehicles comprising a coupling head with a projection, a hook mounted on a fixed pivot bearing in the coupling head for swinging in a coupling position, an articulated arm mechanism mounted in the coupling head and spring means acting on the hook.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is well known that particularly modern light rail passenger transit vehicles, such as streetcars, subway cars, and the like, are capable of being independently operated as a single passenger transit vehicle Such rail vehicles are often operated as a single vehicle, particularly, during times when passenger travel is at a low volume. On the other hand, during times of high volume passenger travel, such as the morning and evening rush hours", such passenger transit vehicles are operated as units of two or more vehicles. In order to permit the operation of such multiple car units, sue..
transit vehicles are provided with coupling means at their forward and rearward ends for selectively coupling and uncoupling the transit vehicles together according to the respective needs. - 2 -
In order to permit a quick and convenient coupling and uncoupling of rail vehicles automatic central buffer couplings have been developed.
US 2,161,724 discloses an automatic central buffer coupling consisting of a pair of mating coupling heads each having a rotatable hook plate and a coupling eye pivoted to the hook plate. Pivotally connected to each hook plate is a bow-shaped lever arm which is designed to engage with the coupling eye of the other hook plate.
Moreover, each hook plate is provided with a coupling spring which tends to rotate the hook plate in a coupling position. The lever arms and the hook plates form a parallelogram. When unlocking this known central buffer coupling the hook plates are rotated against the force of the coupling springs until the bow-shaped lever arms can be disengaged from the coupling eyes.
GB 1,247,128 discloses a central buffer coupling for rail vehicles comprising a locking pin for locking the coupling with a counter coupling in a coupled position, a manually operable lever for releasing the locking pin and hydraulic or pneumatic piston cylinder means adapted to alternatively actuate the manually operable lever to release the coupling.
US 3,405,811 discloses an automatic hook type coupler for rail vehicles having pivotally mounted in its coupling head an unlocking cam and a lock. The unlocking am in an uncoupling operation acts on said hook and a corresponding hook of a mating coupler engaged thereby for swinging said hooks to uncoupling position. The lock on coupling of said couplers locks the hook of the mating - 3 coupler in coupling position. Each coupling head is provided with an uncoupling lever which can be manually or automatically actuated for swinging both hooks to uncoupling position through the unlocking cam while releasing the hook of the mating coupler from the lock.
An operative connection is provided between the levers when the couplers are coupled for enabling actuation of one to actuate both in unison. The operative connection permits the swing of the hooks to be so restricted that the couplers cannot be uncoupled unless both hooks are swung to uncoupling position.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAIL DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
As is shown in Fig. 1, a coupling head 1 comprises a coupling housing 2 in which a hook 3 is pivotally.mounted on a pivot bearing 4 defining a fixed axis with respect to the coupling housing. The hook 3 has a forked section with upper and lower fork legs 5, 6 disposed at the opposite end of the head section 7 of the hook 3. The pivot bearing or pivot pin 4 is positioned between the forked section and the head section 7. The head section 7 projects into a projection 25 of the coupling head 1 through an opening 8 beyond the front surface or front plate 9 of the coupling housing 2.
Furthermore, the hook 3 is provided with an articulated arm mechanism comprising a first articulated arm 10 and a second articulated arm 11. The first articulated arm 10 is pivotally connected to a second pivot bearing or pivot pin 12 defining another fixed axis of rotation with respect to the housing of coupling head 1. The first articulated arm 10 has also a forked section, wherein the second articulated arm 11 is accommodated between the fork legs 5, 6 of the hook 3 and the fork legs of the first articulated arm 10. The hook 3 is connected by means of a pivot joint 13 to the second articulated arm 11 which is connected by means of a second pivot joint 14 to the first articulated arm 10.
Furthermore, a third articulated arm 15 is provided which serves as a tappet and being connected by means of a third pivot joint 16 to the hook 3. The third articulated arm or tappet 15 is arranged between the fork legs 5, 6 - 7 of the hook 3 with the third pivot joint 16 being located between the fixed pivot pin 4 and the pivot joint 13.
The articulated arms 10, 11, 15 are provided with two spring means each comprising a helical spring 17, 18 and a guide means 19, 20 for maintaining an essential straight longitudinal extension of the respective helical spring 17, 18 during movement of the articulated arm mechanism. A first or main spring means 17, 19 is supported on a supporting bearing 21 disposed between the pivot bearing or pivot pin 4 of the hook 3 and the pivot bearing or pivot pin 12 of the first articulated arm 10.
The other end of the main spring means 17, 19 acts directly or indirectly on the first and second articulated arms 10, 11. The point 22 where the spring force of the main spring means is applied to the articulated arm mechanism lies essentially in the area of the pivot joint 14.
The second spring means 18, 20 is associated to the second and third articulated arms 11, 15. The second spring means 18, 20 acts on the third articulated arm 15 in a point of application of force 23 lying adjacent the pivot joint 16. The other end of the second spring means 18, 20 is supported on a supporting bearing or point of application of force 24 located on the second articulated arm 11 adjacent to the pivot joint 13. Both points 23, 24 are formed by pivot joints. The second spring means 18, is accommodated between fork legs of the second and third articulated arms 11, 15.
For co-operating with a projection 25' of a mating coupling head (not shown) of another rail vehicle the third articulated arm 15 projects from the hook 3 in its uncoupling position towards the opening 8 in the front 9 of coupling head 1.
The movement of the hook 3 from its uncoupling position in its coupling position is caused by the pressure action of the projection 25' of a mating coupling head applied on the third articulated arm or tappet 15. In Figures 1 and 2 the situation is shown in which the third articulated arm 15 is in a ready position with respect to the projection 25' of the counter coupling head (not shown). By pushing the third articulated arm or tappet 15 towards the rear wall 26 of the coupling housing 2 the hook 3 is pivoted so that its head section 7 approaches its coupling position. During the rotation of the hook 3 from the uncoupling position shown in Fig. 2 to the coupling position shown in Fig. 3 the pressure spring 17 of the main spring means reaches its shortest length, whereby when rotating the hook 3 further the main spring means is able to move the common pivot joint 14 and thus the first and second articulated arms 10, 11 towards a wall of the coupling housing 2.
As is shown in Fig. 3, the movement of the first articulated arm 10 is limited by a stop 27 provided with the coupling head (cf. Fig. 4). The stop 27 may consist of a wall 28 of the coupling housing 2. In the present embodiment the wall section 28 presenting the stop is oblique with respect to the rear wall 26 and the front surface 9 of the coupling housing 2. Accordingly, the movement of,:he pivot joint 14 and the articulated arm mechanism is limited by the stop 27 or housing wall section 28. The articulated arm mechanism is pressed by means of the main spring means 17, 19 against the stop 27 or wall 28 of the coupling head 1. When the articulated 9 - arm mechanism reaches the stop 27 or wall section 28 of the coupling housing 2 the hook 3 engages a coupling section 29 of the hook 3' of a mating coupling head of another rail vehicle (cf. Fig. 3).
When the hook 3 is moved in its coupling position the first and second articulated arms 10, 11 are moved beyond the position in which their longitudinal axes coincide with the straight line connecting the axes of rotation of the pivot point 13 and the fixed pivot pin 12. In the coupling position of the hook 3 the longitudinal axes of the first and second articulated arms 10, 11 form an obtuse angle. Accordingly, in the coupling position of the hook 3 the axes of rotation defined by the first and second pivot joints 13, 14 and the second pivot bearing 12 intersect an arc-shaped line indicated in Fig. 3 by the dashed line 30. The supporting or pivot point 21 of the main spring means 17, 19 is located on the concave side of the arc-shaped line 30.
When the pivot joint 14 of the articulated arm mechanism is pressed by means of the main spring means 17, 19 against the stop 27 or wall 28 of the coupling head 1, the hook 3 remains locked even if a pull force is applied on the hook section associated to the section 29 of the hook 3' of the mating coupling head.
Associated to the third articulated arm or tappet 15 is a stop 31 projecting from the rear wall 26 of the coupling housing 2. The stop 31 has an oblique front co-operatinc, with an sharp-shaped end of the third articulated arm 15.
After the front of the projection 25' of the mating coupling head has reached its deepest position in the opening 8 and before the pivot joint 14 is pressed - 10 against the stop 27 or oblique wall section 28 of the coupling housing 2 the third articulated arm 15 touches with its sharpshaped end the stop 31 whereby the third articulated arm 15 is swung such that its opposite end is moved towards the fixed pivot bearing or pivot pin 4 in order not to get stuck with the projection 25' of.the mating coupling head of another rail vehicle during uncoupling of the hook 3.
The third articulated arm 15 comprises a stop 32 which co-operates with the front edge of the upper leg 5 of the hook 3. By means of the stop 32 two stop positions for the swing movement of the third articulated arm 15 are defined with respect to the hook 3.
During the swing movement of the third articulated arm 15 from its position shown in Fig. 2 into the position shown in Fig. 3 the helical spring 18 of the second spring means is pressed to a shortest length wherein the helical spring 18 has a longer longitudinal extension in the respective positions shown in Figures 2 and 3. Due to the spring force of the pressure spring 18 the third articulated arm 15 retains in the coupling position of the hook 3 In a position in which it is spaced with respect to the projection 25' of the counter coupling head (cf. Fig. 3).
In order to uncouple the two hooks 3, 3' the first articulated arm 10 is rotated around its fixed axis 12 away from the wall 2>' of the housing 2. The rotation of the first articulated arm 10 can be performed by a manually operable lever (not shown) and/or electric, hydraulic or pneumatic piston cylinder means (not shown).
Due to its pivot connection with the first articulated arm 10 the hook 3 is rotated around its fixed pivot bearing or pivot pin 4. Just after the pressure spring 17 has been moved beyond the position in which its longitudinal extension has the shortest length, the main spring means 17, 19 will automatically swing the hook 3 further into the uncoupling position (cf. Fig. 4).
Each of the projections 25, 25' of the respective coupling head has a recess 33, 33' for allowing the hook 3, 3' to swing from its uncoupling position in its coupling position and vice versa. While the hook 3 is moved in its uncoupling position the second articulated arm 11 is rotated too and the helical spring 18 is moved beyond the position in which its longitudinal extension has the shortest length (cf. Fig. 4). Due to the spring force present in this position the third articulated arm or tappet 15 will swing back to the ready position shown in Fig. 2 as soon as the vehicle having the mating coupling head with the projection 25' is driven away.
The projection 25' of the mating coupling head is designed with respect to the third articulated arm 15 such that during the coupling process the third articulated arm 15 with the stop 31 can trigger the movement of the hook 3 from the uncoupling position and the third articulated arm 15 cannot move back towards the fixed pivot bearing or pivot pin 4.
While a specific embodiment of the invention has been Shown and described in detail to illustrate the application of the automatic central buffer coupling according to the invention, it will be understood that the invention may be embodied otherwise without departing from the invention as defined in the accompanying claims.
