    摘要: The present invention relates to railway rail handling apparatus 10 and a method of handling railway rails using such apparatus. The railway rail handling apparatus 10 is configured for track side operation and comprises ground engaging wheel means 28 and rail moving means 12. The rail moving means 12 is configured to engage a railway rail 80 along part of its length and for its progressive movement longitudinally along the rail as the railway rail handling apparatus 10 moves on the ground engaging wheel means 28. As the rail moving means 12 moves in this fashion the rail moving means is configured to progressively bend the rail 80 laterally of an unbent part of the rail, thereby moving the rail from a first position to a second position. The railway rail handling apparatus 10 defines a footprint over the ground and the rail moving means is, in use, operative within the footprint.

    摘要: The invention relates to a self-propelled vehicle (10) provided only with rail-engaging rolling means (18) comprising: a chassis (14); a working surface (16) connected thereto for supporting equipment, materials (20) and personnel; and positioning means (22, 24) connected to the chassis for lifting the vehicle and moving it laterally with respect to a direction of rail travel between a trackside location and an on-track location (12). A lifting apparatus (28) is mountable on the chassis and moveable along the length of the working surface (16). By providing only rail-engaging rolling means (18), the height of the vehicle's overlying working surface (16) above the track (12) and surrounding ground is significantly reduced as compared to existing dual purpose road-rail vehicles. The vehicle is capable of working safely below live overhead lines and alongside tracks open to traffic thus avoiding the need to for full closure of tracks during maintenance and inspection works.

    摘要: An apparatus (100, 700) is disclosed for handling railway sleepers and placing them with a desired spacing. A mobile chassis is supported at either end by a suitable tractor (102, 104). On the chassis (112) there is carried an elongate support (114) long enough to span several sleepers, with a number of flexible tethers (126) depending from respective points spaced along the support. The tethers are adapted to suspend a batch of sleepers simultaneously. An alignment template extends beneath the elongate support and is formed so as to engage the suspended batch of sleepers simultaneously and fix their positions. A mechanism is provided whereby the alignment template and suspended sleepers are made moveable so as to permit an efficient sequence of lifting, aligning and depositing batches of sleepers, without the need for fine manual adjustment. In one embodiment, the alignment template (122) is formed on the underside of the chassis structure (112), while the elongate support is a beam extending above the chassis. Various methods of deployment are described, and the apparatus may be adapted for laying fourteen or even twenty-eight sleepers in one batch.
