Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rail fastening that can be preassembled on sleepers by means of a ribbed plate and sleeper screw by means of an elastic tension clamp made of steel bar in the form of a W, the middle part of which wraps around the shaft of the hook screw anchored in a groove of the rib of the ribbed plate, the opposing free ends of the tension clamp in the installed position press the rail foot and the middle part comes to lie at a small distance above the rail foot and the bracket parts of the tension clamp facing away from the rail foot are supported on the outer flank of the rib of the rib plate.
  • the base plate lies on the threshold with its guide ribs which are pulled up laterally next to the rail.
  • the rail is fastened by means of the sleeper screw, which presses with the screw head plate onto the elastic clamp made of steel bar.
  • the bent ends of the clamp press on the rail foot, while the inversions of the clamp are supported against rotation on the base plate against its outer strips.
  • the middle part of the clamp is arched up under the screw head and wraps around the screw shaft. When the screw is tightened, the middle part of the clamp is depressed and its middle section, which comes to rest on the rib of the base plate, limits the span of travel. This prevents the clamp from being overstressed and the base plate is screwed onto the threshold sufficiently.
  • the rail fastening according to DE-PS 19 54 008 does not limit its span of travel on the rib of the ribbed plate, but rather the middle part of the tension clamp extends into the area of the rail foot itself, where it lies either in the mounting position on the rail foot or at the free ends of the tension clamp or is located close to the same, so that the central part forms a direct or indirect hard-spring limit for lifting movements of the rail foot there.
  • the rail fastenings described meet the requirements of modern railway operations in their operating position (assembly position), d. H. the rail fastening is suitable for ensuring that the rail foot is securely fastened to the wooden sleeper, even at high speeds and with increased axle loads.
  • the rails are moved more strongly in the vertical direction due to the increased axle loads, although lifting of the rail foot can occur despite the tensioning forces of the bow-shaped clamps acting on the rail foot. Even when cornering, there are increased stresses on the rail due to horizontal force components that try to cause the rail to tilt.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a rail fastening of the type mentioned at the outset with a non-rotatable pre-mountable tensioning clamp with rear support for use on ribbed plates.
  • this aim is achieved with a rail fastening according to the preamble of claim 1, which is characterized by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Appropriate developments of such a rail fastening result from the subclaims.
  • This new rail fastening is characterized by a more stable position of the bond between the hook screw and the preassembled tension clamp against lateral impact forces acting on the tension screw, i.e. against forces acting in the longitudinal axis of the sleeper, as is often the case, for example, when loading, unloading or when laying on the web body or when inserting the rail during track construction.
  • So z. B. with the tension clamp according to PS 33 34 119 (Alpha 1400 ) cannot be avoided by the inclined position of the threaded bolt (hook screw) this jumps back into the vertical position or that the diagonally clamped clamping clamp falls down from this unstable position due to even a slight vibration and thus prevents the rail from being inserted.
  • the more stable position with the new tension clamp is achieved in that the hook screw is pushed back vertically into the mushroom cut in the ribbed plate into the pre-assembly position.
  • the tension clamp with the hook screw is brought into the screwed position by a hammer blow in the direction of the rail web and then braced. None has to be removed, turned or plugged in again.
  • the anti-rotation device is provided by the rear support of the tension clamp on the rib plate directly on the outer flank of the rib and additionally by the free ends of the tension clamp on the inner flank of the rib. This ensures that during the transition from the pre-assembly - in the assembly position, d. H. when tightening the nut of the hook screw, the tension clamp does not turn in the direction of rotation and can therefore take an unfavorable position on the rail foot.
  • Fig. 1 the rail fastening according to the invention is shown in view on the left half and in section on the right half.
  • the left side shows the track exterior in the assembly position and the right side shows the track interior in the pre-assembly position, with the tensioning clamp lying outside the outer edge of the rail foot 1b 6.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show the new rail fastening on wooden sleepers.
  • the rail 1 is fastened to a wooden sleeper 4 by means of an elastic intermediate layer 2 between the ribs 3a and 3b of the ribbed plate 3.
  • the rib plate 3 is fastened to the wooden sleeper 4 with four sleeper screws 5, which clamp the ribbed plate 3 onto the wooden sleeper 4 by means of high-tension spring washers 6.
  • the inclined position of the axis of symmetry 7 of the rail 1, z. B. 1:40, is achieved by appropriate inclination of the surface of the rib plate between the ribs.
  • a small step 8 is provided in the outside area in a known manner.
  • the rail 1 In the installed position, the rail 1 is held down non-positively between the ribs 3a, 3b of the ribbed plate 3 in the region of the rail foot 1a, 1 on both sides by means of the tensioning clamps 9.
  • the tensioning clamp 9 is shown on the left-hand side of FIGS. 1 and 2 in the assembly position, the free ends 9a to be pressed towards one another pressing on the rail foot 1a, while the middle part 9e in the installation position lies at a small distance a above the rail foot 1a.
  • the tension clamps are tightened by means of the hook screws 11 anchored in the grooves 10a, 10b of the ribs 3a, 3b with nuts 12 and washers 13.
  • the ribbed plate 3 with the tensioning clamps 9 is already pre-assembled on the sleeper 4 in the position 9 'in the sleeper unit.
  • the ribbed plate 3 is tightened on the sleeper 4 by means of the sleeper screws 5 and the tensioning clamp 9 is positioned in the position 9 'by means of the hook screw 11 of the nut 12 and the washer 13. It can be seen that the tensioning clamp 9 'is so inclined in this position that the free arms 9a rest on the rib 3b and the central part 9e in the untensioned state lie above and outside the free space of the rail.
  • the support legs 9c of the tensioning clamp 9 facing away from the rail 1 are bent outwards and are somewhat concave in the plan view, which can be seen particularly well from FIG.
  • the parts of the tension clamp 9 that wrap around the shaft of the hook screw 11, namely its central part 9e and the two lateral legs 9d, which have corresponding flats 14 in their parts that come into engagement with the washer 13, are also somewhat inclined in the preassembly position, the Hook screw slightly offset to the side and is only slightly tightened so that the tension clamp is just sufficiently fixed in the preassembly position 9 '.
  • the middle part 9e-9d of the tension clamp 9 is bent so far that the legs 9d run up to a distance 15, which is less than the diameter of the shaft of the hook screw 11.
  • the somewhat complicated spatial shape of the new tension clamp can be seen particularly well when looking at FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the ends 9a are shaped in such a way that when the tension clamp is pressed together they do not adhere to the head loop 9e, 9d in Come into contact.
  • the spatial shape of the tensioning clamp 9 can be seen even better from the perspective illustration according to FIG. 6.
  • the shape of the tension clamp 9 also ensures that it cannot rotate when the hook screw 11 is tightened in the direction of rotation of the nut, because during tensioning and in the mounting position, the outer support legs 9c and the free ends 9a are each on the outer flank or inner flank of the Support the ribs 3a, 3b of the ribbed plate 3.
  • the middle part 9e of the tensioning clamp is brought into the tensioning position by means of the hook screw 11 in such a way that it does not touch the rail foot 1a, 1b, but remains at a distance a.
  • the hook screw 11 is only tightened to such an extent that a small distance a remains between the middle part 9e and the rail foot 1 a or 1 b. This distance ensures that the relatively hard spring characteristic of the middle part 9e of the tensioning clamp 9 only comes into effect when the rail foot is lifted over the distance a, namely when the soft resilient ends 9a are raised to the height of the middle part 9e.
  • the pre-assembly position and the assembly position are characterized in that the surface of the ribs 3a, 3b of the fin plate does not come into contact with the different parts of the tension clamp 9.
  • This surface of the ribs serves only as a support for the free ends 9a in the pre-assembly position 9 'of the tension clamp .
  • the correct positioning of the tension clamp is ensured by the outer and inner flanks of the ribs 3a, 3b of the ribbed plate 3.
