摘要:
An expansion joint for part of a railway track arranged on a foundation has a stock rail with a stock rail head and a tongue movable with respect to and along said stock rail head, upon which at least one fastening device acts for pressing it on the stock rail. This expansion joint enables the rail foot to be longitudinally moved with little friction and excludes tipping of the stock rail or tongue. For that purpose, the tongue is not bolted but pressed only against the stock rail by the fastening device, and the force thus transmitted is decomposed into components that act on the one hand in the direction of the foundation and on the other hand in the direction of the stock rail head.

A frog tip that can be moved relative to the wing rail is proposed, in which the contact surfaces each curve away from the frog tip and the wing rails in a lengthwise direction.
摘要:
A device for locking a switch blade with a stock rail which includes a locking piece connected to the stock rail. The locking piece has an opening through which the longer leg of an L-shaped locking clamp extends. A switch element also extends through the opening and has an upper surface in contact with the longer leg of the L-shaped member which extends below the foot of the switch blade. The shorter leg has an end free to articulate with respect to a shaft. The shaft is further connected with a clamp receiver or clamp notch. The pivot axis of the clamp receiver member and shorter leg extends parallel with the switch blade and is positioned above the foot of the switch rail such that the clamp receiver member slopes downwardly between the shaft and connection point with the switch blade. This arrangement avoids tipping of the switch as the vertical force vector of the resultant vector passing through the contacting surface of the switching element and first leg intersects the switch blade rail foot on a supporting base immediately adjacent to the switch blade rail foot.

A device for locking a switch blade (10, 12) with a stock rail (14, 16) is proposed, whereby the switch blade is held down on a supporting surface only when it is in locked and unlocked positions. When the switch blade (10, 12) is in the locked position it is acted upon by a resultant force (53) that prevents both a rotation of the switch blade and its rising up.

An arrangement is proposed for controlled guidance of a wheel axle (22) or of a bogie of a rail vehicle passing over points, whereby the wheel contact point (48, 50) is subjected to a controlled influence such that the wheel axle runs substantially vertical to the track longitudinal axis. The controlled influence of the wheel contact point can be exerted by, for example, the stock rail (32) veering away outwards in the area that the blade begins.
摘要:
An expansion joint for part of a railway track arranged on a foundation has a stock rail with a stock rail head and a tongue movable with respect to and along said stock rail head, upon which at least one fastening device acys for pressing it on the stock rail. This expansion joint enables the rail foot to be lingitudinally moved with little friction and excludes tipping of the stock rail or tongue. For that purpose, the tongue is not bolted, but pressed only against the stock rail by the fastening device, and the force thus transmitted is decomposed into components that act, on the other hand, in the direction of the foundation and, on the other hand, in the direction of the stock rail head. The force is transmitted by a rolling element extending from a shaft which is anchored to the foundation.
摘要:
A bearing system for a part of a railroad track, such as a rail-fastening or ribbed slab (10), supported by elastic elements on, for example, a railroad sleeper. The elastic elements form a spring system with a kinked characteristic curve such that when the spring system is subjected to force that is smaller than the forces active in the operative range (16) of the spring system, the characteristic curve rises steeply and, in the operative range (16), runs flat.
摘要:
A support system for a rail section which bridges the gap between foundations which are relatively movable auxiliary rails running parallel to the rail across the sleepers which are supported by the foundation, and underpinning supports providing a stiff connection between rail and auxiliary rails. The underpinning supports move in response to relative movement of the foundation so that undesirable rail bending is avoided.
摘要:
Rail construction including laterally adjacent frog sections with guard rails outwardly spaced to each side thereof by interposed liners. The components are interconnected by a transverse tightened bolt with vertical misalignment precluded by either nesting projections on adjacent abutting faces of the components or by a rigid, preformed sleeve press-fit within the bore receiving the bolt, the sleeve extending through the frog sections and at least partially through the liners.
摘要:
A rail attachment device which allows for longitudinal displacement of a rail. The rail attachment device includes a first element fixedly supported to a ribbed plate and having a vertical arm extending essentially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rail. The rail attachment device also includes a second element which is connected to the web of the stock rail. Connecting elements connect the first element to the second element so as to allow for longitudinal shifting of the stock rail and second element with respect to the first element fixed to the ribbed plate. In one embodiment, the second element includes a web-plate fixed to the web of the stock rail by a bolt and a plate-like element connected to the web-plate and having longitudinally extending slots. The connecting elements pass through holes formed in the vertical arm and through the elongated slots. The connecting elements are preferably pretensioned so as to have the plate-like element shift with respect to the vertical arm upon reaching a predetermined longitudinal force. A step arrangement between the plate-like element and vertical arm also prevents vertical shifting between the two.
