Abstract

1439061 Railway vehicles; systems DEMAG AG 4 Sept 1973 [7 Sept 1972] 41523/73 Heading B7L A railway vehicle running on track wheels 6b (Fig. 3) has guide rollers 8 rotatable about vertical axes and engageable with track routing rails, each roller 8 being drivingly connected with a respective switching roller 9, also rotatable about a vertical axis, and engageable with a direction selection rail 4 at a track junction having no movable parts. The rollers 9 are carried by levers 11 pivotally mounted on the shafts 10a of the rollers 8 and interconnected by linkage rods 12a, 12b, so that they may be moved simultaneously by control means to position the rollers 9 on one side in engagement with a rail 4 while moving the rollers 9 on the opposite side to their inoperative position. The control means consists of an electric linear motor 15 which may be energized to swing the levers 11 and the rollers 9 through 90 degrees against the action of an over dead-centre spring 14 to switch the vehicle at a junction. The switching rollers 9 may be drivingly connected to their associated guide rollers 8 by belt-and-pulley arrangements or chain and gearing. Abutments 12c on the rods 12a co-operate with fixed stops to limit the movement of the linkage. A roller 12d on the connecting rod 12b engages a return switching rail (5) or (5a), Fig. 6 (not shown), to automatically switch a vehicle leaving a branch track back on to a main track. As shown in Fig. 3, the railway system comprises a vehicle supported on tracks 1b at each side of a central member la or a vehicle suspended from tracks 3 at the base of the central member. In both cases, the guide rollers 8 run on tracks 3 and the switching rollers 9 co-operate with direction selection rails 4.
