Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to railway lines (and tram lines), and proposes providing, for a certain length along a track, a bed for collecting and evacuating liquids such as water for washing or sprinkling, as well as disinfectants and the like.
- EP-A-1081286 is a supporting device that can be applied to the rails of railway or tram lines including sleepers set at intervals apart for fixing the flanges of the rails, said device comprising a cantilever support provided with attachments, which can be connected in an articulated way to vice members, which are in turn fixed to the flanges of the rails.
- the cantilever supports are provided with rests on the sleepers of the track, and are prearranged for application of service devices of various kinds, amongst which also tanks for liquids for washing/disinfecting and the like.
- the present invention aims at improving the solution known from the aforesaid document EP-A-1081286 and, more in particular, its purpose is to propose a system for providing a bed for collecting and evacuating liquids that is sturdy and versatile, as well as being applicable in a simple and convenient way also to tracks of already existing lines.
- a further purpose of the invention is to propose a system for providing a bed for collecting and evacuating liquids along a railway track which can be laid in a short time and without any need for building works.
- a further purpose of the invention is to make available a system for providing a bed for collecting and evacuating liquids along a railway track that is designed to guarantee the maximum safety as regards dead and live loads during use.
- the system according to the invention is basically characterized in that the aforesaid tank means are supported by said cantilever supports by means of intermediate longitudinal elements extending in use parallel to the track, and in that said cantilever supports moreover support griddled plates defining a treading surface on top of said tank means.
- the system further comprises insulation means between the aforesaid tank means and the rails of the track, and said insulation means are provided both between the attachments of the cantilever supports and the flanges of the rails and between longitudinal edges of the tank means and the railheads.
- the tank means advantageously consist of sectional modular elements, and are provided with drain pipes conveniently connected to a common collecting header, which can be connected to a coalescence or hydrocarbon oil separator.
- the reference number 1 designates as a whole a system according to the invention for providing a bed for collecting and evacuating liquids along a section of a pre-set length of a railway line, the track of which includes, in an altogether conventional way, a pair of parallel rails R, each of which has a flange S and a railhead F.
- the flange S of the each rail R is fixed, also in an altogether conventional way, to sleepers T arranged, at regular intervals, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the track.
- the system 1 makes available, alongside the outer sides of the two rails R and within the space comprised between the corresponding inner sides, a basin for collecting washing water or residues of sprinkling liquids, disinfectants and the like, said basin being connected to a circuit for evacuation and possible treatment thereof.
- the system is made up of two lateral collecting beds 2 and a third central collecting bed 3.
- Each of the lateral beds 2 which are specularly symmetrical, comprises a set of modular shaped tanks 4, normally formed by thin plates of stainless steel having, for example, a length in the region of six metres, with endpieces 5.
- the tanks 4 are carried by a set of cantilever supports 6 projecting in a direction orthogonal to that of the respective rail R, with the interposition of intermediate longitudinal elements 7 extending parallel to the rails R.
- the tanks 4 are supported underneath by the cantilever supports 6 and laterally on the side where there is the rail R by the intermediate longitudinal elements 7.
- Said longitudinal elements 7 may be seen in greater detail in Figures 4 and 5 and conveniently have a C section. They are fixed to platforms 9 of the cantilever supports 6, for example by means of screwed plates 17 in the way that is more clearly visible in Figure 5.
- each cantilever support 6 comprises a pair of arms 8, each joined at one end by the platform 9 and provided at the opposite end with respective brackets 10.
- the brackets 10 are connected, via articulation pins 11 and with the interposition of spacer bushings 12, conveniently made of vibration-damping and insulating material, to respective blocks 13 for vicing to the flange S of the corresponding rail R.
- the blocks 13 are substantially L-shaped and are fixed, normally by means of screws 14, to respective base plates 15 arranged against the bottom surface of the flange S of the rail R.
- the pairs of vicing blocks 13 and the corresponding plates 15 are arranged on opposite sides with respect to the sleepers T so as not to interfere therewith. Furthermore, set between the area of vicing of each block 13 and the flange S of the corresponding rail R is a pad 16 made of insulating and vibration-damping material, typically an elastomeric material.
- each cantilever support 6 has a bar or arm 18, which projects in cantilever fashion beyond the respective sleeper T and carries at its free end a longitudinal element made of channel section 19, which closes the external side of the tank 4 and functions as rest for a griddled plate 20.
- the griddled plates 20 are conveniently modular, extend on top of the tanks 4, and define a treading surface. Said griddled plates 20, which are conveniently made of zinc-plated steel, are normally formed with an indented antislip treadable surface.
- Each cantilever support 6 is provided with height-adjustable feet 21, which rest on the corresponding sleeper T.
- the tanks 4 have internal longitudinal edges 21 extending until they are immediate adjacent to the outer sides of the rails R, underneath the corresponding railheads F. Said longitudinal edges 21 are coated with respective insulating strips 22, typically made of elastomeric material or the like.
- central collecting bed 3 is substantially similar to the one described previously with reference to the two lateral beds 2.
- modular tanks 23 are envisaged with overlying griddled plates 24, which are arranged, on either side, so that they rest on intermediate longitudinal elements 25, which are substantially identical to the intermediate longitudinal elements 7 and are carried by corresponding cantilever supports 26, the configuration of which is similar to that of the cantilever supports 6.
- each cantilever support 26 comprises a pair of arms 27 connected at one end by a platform 28 and provided at the opposite end with respective brackets 29 for articulated connection, through corresponding pins 30 and vibration-damping bushings 31, to corresponding vicing blocks 32, which are in turn fixed by means of screws 33 to the respective plates 15 and are tightened against the flange S of the rails R with the interposition of vibration-damping and insulating pads 34.
- the longitudinal edges 40 of the tanks 23 are set immediately underneath the railheads F of the rails R, in the proximity of the inner sides thereof, and are coated by respective insulating strips 37, typically made of elastomeric material.
- the lateral collecting beds 2, defined by the corresponding tanks 4, and the central collecting bed 3, defined by the tanks 23, are in this way insulated from the surface of the iron and can be perfectly aligned therewith, as a result of adjustment of the feet 21 and 36 of the cantilever supports 6 and 26.
- Said tanks 4 and 23 are provided with drain pipes 38 ( Figure 7) conveniently connected to a common collecting header 39, which in turn comes under an assembly for treatment of the waste liquids, which can for example comprise a coalescence or hydrocarbon oil separator.
- FIG 8 differs from the one previously disclosed solely in that the tanks 4 and 23 are equipped with runners 41 which can be employed to sprinkle from below a liquid for washing the body of a railway vehicle located over the bed system 1, as well as with nozzles 42 for the self-washing of the bed system 1 itself.
- Runners 41 and nozzles 42 are connected, through respective nipples 43, to a hydraulic supply circuit of a liquid under pressure.
- the invention makes available an extremely practical, functional and sturdy system for collecting and evacuating liquids along a railway track, it being possible for said system to be assembled and applied also to already existing lines, without requiring any modification and in an extremely short time.
