Definitions

  • French patent n ° 766.398 describes a rail-road technical coordination wagon intended for the transport of removable bodies forming a wagon superstructure for rail transport and road vehicle superstructure for road transport, comprising a chassis element equipped with longitudinal guidance means of the load cooperating with a means of traction thereof in both directions, and also comprising a means of lifting of small amplitude making it possible in particular to bring the chassis element slightly above or below the contiguous end from the loading platform of the road vehicle to transfer a removable bodywork respectively from the wagon chassis element to the platform of the road vehicle and from the latter to the chassis element.
  • the major drawback of this wagon resides in the fact that in order to transfer a removable bodywork between said wagon and a road vehicle, it is necessary that the loading level of the wagon is not located at the same level as the buffering members. and shock absorption or below. If these bodies have a standard height with respect to the railway track, the height of the removable bodywork is limited by the railway gauge. But if this height of the removable bodywork is not to be reduced, the chassis must be lowered and consequently the height of the buffering and shock absorption members, which become special and unsuitable for mass traffic, must be reduced.
  • French Patent No. 1,045,181 describes a wagon whose chassis is in two elements arranged end to end and articulated with respect to each other.
  • the element supporting the load is fitted with hydraulic cylinders allowing it to first be lifted to dismantle the corresponding bogie and evacuate it along the railway track, then then to lower this element so that it becomes an inclined ramp, which is provided with a folding part which is intended to extend it to the ground.
  • Swiss Patent No. 396,976 describes a handling technique in which the containers are secured to a structured bottom which must constitute the actual chassis of the wagon, a chassis whose ends are normally placed on and locked with the bogie buffering chassis.
  • the transfer of the container to the road semi-trailer takes place substantially horizontally, but it proceeds by pivoting the wagon chassis which follows the container in all its movements, instead of by longitudinal translation of the container only at level constant horizontal.
  • the present invention proposes a new combination of means, using those of French patent No. 766,398 set out in the foregoing and improving them.
  • the connecting loyens of the two chassis elements are hooks which fit into each other by vertical translation to ensure locking, the lifting means of the retractable support device for one of said elements also making it possible to disassemble the hooks;
  • the support device for each of the two chassis elements is equipped with railway rollers bearing on the railway track and allowing the displacement along the latter of each of said elements;
  • the traction means cooperating with the means for longitudinally guiding the loading of each chassis element is constituted by drive rollers arranged near the separation end and capable of receiving their driving energy from the road vehicle;
  • the means for longitudinally guiding the loading of each chassis element comprise lateral centering members of the removable bodies.
  • the wagon is removable, so that after having removed at least one of the extreme rolling elements, the separation end of each chassis element is accessible for its loading or unloading at the end.
  • the invention makes it possible to increase the number and the geographic density of the terminals likely to be served by rail for their coordination with the road, to diversify and simplify the maneuvering possibilities in ' terminal, to improve flexibility of use, to reduce the downtime of both the train and the track and consequently of the rail-road transfer, to reduce the length of built-in track required and to further lower the cost price of a fully equipped wagon , as well as terminal equipment for mass traffic.
  • the wagon comprises a first extreme bogie 1, the central clip of which supports the transverse-pivot 2 of a short chassis element 3 having stretchers 4.
  • the wagon comprises a second extreme bogie 5 whose central lug supports a cross-pivot 6 belonging to a long chassis element 7 whose stretchers 8, joined together by cross-members 9 suitably distributed, are aligned with those 4 of the short chassis 3; the rigid joining of these stretchers is ensured by means of disassemblable connecting members 10 which can be of any type.
  • disassemblable connecting members 10 can proceed differently for their installation and removal, by transverse or longitudinal translation, by pivoting or by more complex movements by cams ...
  • the frame formed by the short chassis element 3 and the long chassis element 7 resists buffering and tensile forces, but it does not have to bear the load of the removable bodywork 18, since that -this being self-supporting can rest on the pivot-crossbars 2 and 6 by its pads or longitudinal members 19.
  • the long chassis element 7 is equipped, near its free end called the separation end, with a retractable support device which, in the example shown, consists of two independent crutches 20, the drums of which are integral with said structure and whose piston rods are integral with pads 21 for a fixed support on the ground or provided with orientable and possibly self-propelled casters 22.
  • a retractable support device which, in the example shown, consists of two independent crutches 20, the drums of which are integral with said structure and whose piston rods are integral with pads 21 for a fixed support on the ground or provided with orientable and possibly self-propelled casters 22.
  • the long chassis element 7 is also equipped with a longitudinal guide device for the transfer of the removable bodywork 18 between this element and the top of a semi-trailer 23 ( Figure 6) and vice versa.
  • This guide device can be of any type and, as can be seen from Figures 3 and 4, it can be constituted by longitudinal slides 24 having lateral slopes to cooperate with the side members 19 of the removable body 18 as well as by at least one pair of rollers 25 carried, by means of a shaft 26, by the stretchers 8 of the long chassis element 7.
  • These rollers, preferably motors for pulling the removable bodywork 18 are located slightly below the level of the pivot crosspieces 2 and 6.
  • Another type of longitudinal guide device may include slides, not shown, which are integral with the chassis element 7 and on which rest and slide with a certain lubrication the pads or skids 19 of the removable body. These slides can be replaced by raceways, at least some of the rollers of which can be motorized with streaks.
  • the device has lateral centering members, such as sloping tabs, rollers with inclined axes, conical rotating stops, etc.
  • the removable bodywork 18 is held in place by stops 28 and 29 located on the short frame member 3 and the long frame member 7 respectively.
  • stops 28 and 29 located on the short frame member 3 and the long frame member 7 respectively.
  • the wagon comprises two chassis elements 30 and 31 of equal length, intended to independently support two identical removable bodies 32 and 33 respectively. These two elements are joined rigidly between them, to resist in particular the buffering and tensile forces and to support the loading, by the disassemblable connecting members 10 described above. They are supported, at their other end, by bogies 1 and 5 respectively. They are equipped with longitudinal guiding devices 19, 24 and abutments (or dampers) 28, 29 mentioned above for the bodies 32 and 33, these means not being shown. They are also equipped with support and lifting devices 34 and 35 located near their separation ends.
  • Such a device 34 comprises a frame 36 having two legs 37 mounted to pivot, at their upper end, relative to the stretchers of the chassis element 30 by means of pins 38 located as close as possible to the disassemblable connecting members 10; at their lower end, the legs 37 support an axle 39 provided with self-propelled railway rollers 40.
  • this frame For raising or lowering these by pivoting the frame 36 in the direction of arrow F or in the opposite direction, this frame cooperates with at least one actuator 41 whose sliding parts are articulated around axes 42 and 43 respectively belonging to a gusset of said frame and to a lug of said stretchers of the chassis element 30.
  • the axis 43 is located, from organs 10, towards bogie 1.
  • motorized rollers 44 intended to permanently support the removable bodywork 32 and to drive it in horizontal translation, are mounted to rotate about the axes 38.
  • FIG. 6 illustrates the unloading of the chassis element 30 (separated from the chassis element 31) as well as the transfer of the removable bodywork 32 onto the platform of the semi-trailer 23, as described in connection with of the first embodiment.
