    摘要: Systems and methods for use in carrying out rail track corrections. A projector device is positioned on a vehicle deployed ahead of a rail maintenance vehicle and includes a Fresnel lens and a plurality of light emitting diodes arranged to provide a light beam that provides a uniform “spot.” The projector device modulates the light beam in such a manner that a pair of receiver receivers disposed on the rail maintenance vehicle can detect the light source and the light intensity and frequency of wavelength of light received into each receiver of a receiver pair is substantially equal. Recorded values may be used to triangulate the geometry of the section of track being worked, while a computer compares the previous section of track already corrected to the current section and makes calculations for desired corrections to be made at work heads on the rail maintenance vehicle.

    摘要: In a method of tamping a track, the displacements between the two reference points relative to each other are recorded during a first advance of the track tamper along the track to form a first curve indicating an existing track position. On the basis of the first curve, correction values are formed and a second curve indicating a desired track position is computed on the basis of the correction values. The track is then repositioned to the desired track position during a second advance of the track tamper along the track in response to the correction values while the track is tamped.

    摘要: A light reference system includes a first, second and third rail followers. The second rail follower is disposed between the first and third rail followers. First and second light sources are disposed on the first and third rail followers and operable to emit light towards the second rail follower. First and Second imaging devices are disposed on the second rail follower. The first imaging device is operable to receive the light emitted by the first light source and provide first image data. The second imaging device is operable to receive the light emitted by the second light source and provide second image data. A processing device is configured to perform a measurement, based on the first and second image data, indicating a relative position of the second rail follower with respect to at least one of the first and third rail followers.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media to facilitate installation and adjustment of railway components are disclosed. Aligning of a railway anchor manipulator and a railway fastener installer with respect to a railway tie may be caused. The railway anchor manipulator may be slidably coupled with a frame assembly of a railway workhead, and may include anchor tools. The railway fastener installer may be slidably coupled with the main shaft structure, may include a hammer assembly, and may be operable to install railway fasteners through holes of a railway tie plate. The railway fastener installer may be caused to install the railway fasteners. The railway anchor manipulator may be lowered to a deployed position, and railway anchors may be adjusted with the anchor tools.
