Definitions

  • the invention relates to a support point for a rail, in particular intended for a rail extension in the region of a bridge joint, wherein the rail has a rail head, rail web with tab chambers and rail foot and the rail is supported floating along along each longitudinal side extending from a base outgoing support ,
  • a bridge superstructure In the area of a bridge joint, a bridge superstructure is tilted around its bearing as a function of the traffic load, whereby plane defined by the bridge construction at the plane predetermined by the bridge abutment describes an end tangent angle ⁇ corresponding to a slope between 2 and 3 ⁇ . Furthermore, there is an elevation between bridge construction and bridge abutment, which is usually in the range between 1 mm and 2 mm. As a result, the support of the rails closest to the bridge joint experiences a strong vertical load, whereas the adjacent supports experience a lifting load both on the bridge superstructure and on the bridge abutment which is greatest in the support of the bridge abutment closest to the joint.
  • a lining piece for rails which consists of two parts, which are connected to each other via an elastic intermediate layer.
  • One of the parts exercises support function and the other part supports.
  • a rail is supported on an elastic base, wherein the rail is fixed laterally over itself in the web area supporting insulating and supporting elements.
  • a rail holder which has a proposal spring-biased spring elements, one of which is supported on the rail and the other on the rail head.
  • the rail is supported via perpendicular to the longitudinal axis extending plate-shaped elements both on the head and on the foot, which in turn are supported by elastic intermediate layers against each other.
  • An attachment for a rail engages on the one hand in the tab chamber of the rail and on the other hand in a holder along the former is displaceable in order to allow the desired extent a fixation.
  • FIG. 6 From US-A-5165598 a support point for a rail is known according to FIG. 6, which has a rail web with a molded part, which forms the function of a lateral boundary surface of the web.
  • For floating support of the rail is based on a designed as a frame support member from an elastic intermediate layer which is connected to both the molding and with the underside of the rail head.
  • the elastic intermediate layer extends obliquely to the vertical.
  • a rail is connected via an elastic intermediate layer with supporting parts, which in turn emanate from a base.
  • a generic elastic rail bearing can be found in DE 4311452 C1.
  • an elastic profile which is supported in a tab chamber is fixed by means of an angle plate, which in turn is connected to a base.
  • the present invention is based on the problem of developing a base of the type described above, in particular in the area of a bridge joint, so that arise in terms of elasticity, tracking and ride comfort track-like conditions, in particular occurring in the range of bridge joints depressing and / or lifting loads do not lead to noticeable changes in the course of the rail.
  • the problem is essentially solved in that the support consists of a rigid support member supported in the tab chamber and a rigid support member spaced therefrom via a joint, that the support member is connected to the support member via a first elastic intermediate layer filling the joint extends parallel or substantially parallel to the vertical direction of movement of the rail and that the support member consists of a support on the rail head first part and a support on the rail foot second part, which are connected via a second elastic intermediate layer.
  • the support member may be arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction of the rail positively in a receptacle of a pad.
  • the support consists of two elastically interconnected parts which are displaced relative to each other in dependence on the load to be removed by the rail, so that the rail is elastically supported to the required extent without the rail itself resting on an elastic intermediate plate.
  • the joint runs parallel or substantially parallel to the vertical direction of movement of the rail.
  • the joint is aligned with horizontally mounted rail parallel to the central axis of the rail.
  • the support member itself is arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction of the rail positively in a U-shaped base or first receptacle, wherein the support member and the first receptacle of at least one fastener such as a screw are interspersed, which in turn is connected to the pad.
  • the support member may form-lockingly extending from a transversely to the longitudinal direction of the rail consist with the first receptacle connected and penetrated by the at least one fastener first portion and extending along the web second portion, wherein the second portion is connected via the elastic intermediate layer with the support member.
  • the support member has an L-shape in section, one leg parallel to the web and the other leg parallel to the rail or to the base.
  • the first receptacle is mounted with extending on both sides of the rail web step-shaped bottom portions on supported on the pad wedge elements whose rail side side surfaces parallel to each other and obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the rail wherein the step-shaped bottom portions have parallel to the side surfaces extending and abutting these boundary surfaces. Due to this construction, the rail itself can be adjusted laterally by adjusting the wedge elements parallel to the rail longitudinal axis.
  • the wedge element at least one parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rail extending from the at least one fastener interspersed first slot and the first portion of the support member of the support at least one of a fastener penetrated perpendicular to the first slot extending second slot.
  • a hole of the first receptacle penetrated by the at least one fastening element can be adapted to the cross section of the fastening element.
  • the first receptacle extends at a distance from the base.
  • the second part which is supported on the rail foot has at least one protrusion extending in the direction of the web.
  • two projections are present, which are supported on the web of the rail, wherein the head-side projection can be angled edge region of the second part of the support part.
  • the first and the second part of the support member should be plate-shaped, in addition, the second part has a along the Schienenfußoberseite and on this supporting angled edge portion, which is enforced by an imaginary vertical extension of the first part.
  • the angled edge portion constitutes a stop.
  • a region of the second elastic intermediate layer then extends at least in sections.
  • first intermediate layer and the second layer generally run parallel or nearly parallel to one another.
  • the base from which the fasteners of the base of the invention emanate may be conventional sleepers or slabs of a fixed track.
  • the pad is a U- or trough-shaped second receptacle, which extends from a stationary fixed to a building structure first building part and slidably guided by one of an adjacent to the building structure second structural part outgoing preferably U- or trough-shaped third recording is included.
