to make suitable.

This invention relates to a device for driving smooth-wheeled carts to make suitable of rails. In FIGS. 1 and 2 and FIGS. 7 and 8, the front frame is one carriage drawn in elevation and section, while the other figures show details of the facility. In the figures, the same objects are the same Letters.

Since the description of the shown in Figs Device for the most part also to that illustrated by FIGS. 7-11 The facility fits, so it should first be discussed.

It is K the car body, K ₁ its turntable and A the axle wood. The front frame rotates around the bolt p located in the boom B , as far as the wagon wheels allow it.

Am Kasten'if. or stool K ₁ (as assumed in the figures) sit π-shaped shoes K ₂ , open to the rear, for which as much has been cut out of A as the rotation of the frame makes necessary. In them lie the upper ends S _{2 of} the rods, S, which sit on the ends m of the cranked rod M and are guided in holders V. The upper parts F ₁ (Figs. 3 and 4) are attached to the timber, while the lower parts F ₂ (Figs. 3 and 4) hang freely. .

1, 2 and 6 show the rods S (the latter figure only in the middle part) in the lowest position, in which the upper ends S ₂ , as noted, in the shoes K the lower, suitably shaped ends S ₁ next to the Head or in the groove of the rail G and the ends m of the axis M so far below the upper edge X (see Fig. 6) of the rear wall Y of the fly holder that a rotation of the rods S with M is impossible. In this lowest position, the rods S prevent the rotatability and derailment of the front frame, and it is already possible to drive on rails with it, ie the associated carriage; but it is safer if the rear frame is also equipped with rods.

In order to drive the so equipped car again on ordinary roads and streets In order to be able to do so, the rods are first raised in a straight line and then in the following way plus a rotation with the M axis

respectively m.

In bearings L depends on the car body a shaft W, the BEZW by the clockwise rotation of its attached lever N. whose mouth JV ₁ goes up, and through the crank M ₁ it encompasses, the axis M with the rods S in the slots α of the holder F (Fig. 3 and -6) rises in a straight line until the center of M located above the edge X. Now, depending on the further lifting of the rods, the rotation of the rods begins with its axis M as a result of the eccentric attack of the mouth N _x on the offset M ₁ . Fig. 2 shows the highest position of SS _{1 with} dots. As soon as W rotates in the opposite direction, the whole rotation takes place first and then the whole lowering of the

Claims (1)

Rods S, the ends S _{1 of} which go in a straight line next to the head or in the groove of the rails G. In the arrangement described above, the bars rotate parallel to the wheel plane, but in the arrangement illustrated by FIGS. 7 to 11, they rotate perpendicular to the same, as the dotted highest position of .S ₁ , FIG. 7 shows. As can be seen from the longitudinal section of the holder V, Fig. 10, and from the horizontal sections (Fig. 9 and 11), as well as the left side (Fig. 7), the rods S with special pins or axes are in this second arrangement s guided in the slots α of the holder V , and with pins s, which sit in the rod flaps S ₃ , held in the slots t of a crosspiece T, FIGS. 7 and 9. The latter is guided at the front of the holders V and has a slot i _a in the middle, in which the pin-shaped end JV, of the lever JV, which is also attached to the shaft W hanging in the bearings L here, is fastened. By turning it to the right (see Fig. 8), the crosspiece T rises and with it the rods S go straight up until the centers of the axes s of the rods S are above the upper edge X of the rear wall Y of the holder V. (Fig. 7 and ι o); from there, according to the extent to which S is lifted, begins its rotation by the eccentric attack of the crosspiece T on the pins J ₁ to. the rods have reached their highest position (indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 7). If JV rotates in the opposite direction, the entire rotation of the rods takes place first, with their upper ends S _{2 lying} in the laterally open shoes K ₂ on the stool K ₁ . Then the straight lowering of the bars takes place, with the lower ends S ₁ going into the channel or next to the head of the rail, and thus again the rotation and derailment of the frame in the lowest bar tier is prevented. With this device described last, the straight-line displacement which is used to hold the bars in the holders V has the great advantage that it allows the bars to rotate in the plane normal to the wheels in the case of gutter rails in general and in the case of head rails, when these are deep in the bed. Patenτ claim: Device on Strasen vehicles to make them suitable for driving on rail tracks, characterized by the attachment of rods (S), which are located in holders (V) on the frame and when driving on tracks (G) to prevent turning and derailment with their upper ends (S ₂ ) in shoes (K ₂ ) on the box (K) or stool (K ₁ ), as well as with their lower ends (S ₁ ) in the channels or on the heads of the rail (G) and out of this Location, 'in the for driving on paths by turning a lever mounted on the box (K). (N) are transferred, the front end (N ₁ ) either with the crank (M ₁ ) - the axis of rotation (M) of both rods (S) - Fig. 1 to 6 - or with the one on the holders (V) Cross pieces (T), in whose slots (t) the pins (S ₁ ) attached eccentrically to their axes of rotation (s ) sit in the rods (S) - Fig. 7 to 11 - are connected, and with its lifting that of the rods ( S) takes place until their axes of rotation (m and s) have exceeded the upper edges (X) of the rear walls (Y) on the holders (V) , whereupon the rods (S) are lifted and rotated at the same time.
