Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vehicle, in particular a semitrailer, for operation on both road and railroad track, and more specifically of the kind defined in the preamble of Claim 1 .
  • a lighter vehicle for instance a delivery van or a corresponding vehicle, that can be driven on both roads and railroad tracks is described in SE,C,9401479-2 (Publication No. 502 692) (SRS et al).
  • a main object of the present invention is to provide a very long and heavy road vehicle of the semitrailer type with the elements necessary to enable said vehicle to be driven on railroad tracks.
  • the invention provides a particularly simple and convenient solution to the aforesaid problem.
  • At least one of the two rear rail-wheel units is comprised of a bogie that includes two rail-wheel axles.
  • the unit is conveniently constructed in the manner described in the aforesaid earlier publication SE,C,9401479-2, i.e. a construction which includes an outwardly pivotal support element that includes an axle for a rail-wheel intended for engagement with the rails when driven up onto the rail track.
  • This support element will conveniently be capable of being fixed in its use position.
  • the rear rail-wheel unit on the traction vehicle may be equipped in a corresponding manner.
  • a particular advantage afforded by the present invention is that it enables many alternative designs to be achieved, and therewith offers significant flexibility with regard to the design of the rail-wheel equipped units.
  • the driven road wheels may be used in a railroad-driving mode by engagement with the rails.
  • FIG. 1 is a side view of a semitrailer adapted for driving on a road in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a side view illustrating the semitrailer of FIG. 1 adapted for driving on a railroad track.
  • FIGS. 3 a ), b ), c ) and d are plan views illustrating the conversion of the vehicle from a road driving mode to a railroad track driving mode in conjunction with driving a semitrailer up onto a railroad track.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a semitrailer 20 adapted for driving on a road A and on a railroad track B respectively.
  • the illustrated embodiment comprises two main parts, namely a traction vehicle 20 a that has a truck chassis including an engine and front and rear road wheels 2 , 3 mounted on axles 2 a , 3 a .
  • the front road wheels 2 can be steered in a typical fashion.
  • the embodiment also includes a trailer 20 b having rear road wheels 21 , which are connected to the traction vehicle 20 a by means of a vertically pivotal axle 25 .
  • it includes three rail-wheel-equipped units 5 , 7 and 22 , of which two such units 5 , 7 are mounted on the traction vehicle and one such unit 22 on the trailer.
  • the front rail-wheel unit 5 of the traction vehicle is equipped with a single axle 4 a that carries rail wheels 4 and that is located in front of the front road-wheel axle 2 a .
  • a bogie unit 7 Located between the rear road-wheel axle 3 a is a bogie unit 7 that includes two rail-wheel axles 6 a carrying rail wheels 6 .
  • the bogie unit 7 can be swung about a vertical shaft 8 and can be moved vertically with the aid of a lifting device 30 , as described below.
  • the rail-wheel unit 22 of the trailer is comprised of a bogie of generally the same design as the rail-wheel unit 7 .
  • the bogie thus includes two rail-wheel axles 23 a which carries rail wheels 23 and which can be swung about a vertical shaft 24 .
  • a lifting device 30 of the same kind as that at the “intermediate unit” 7 .
  • Lifting and lowering of a bogie unit 7 , 22 in relation to the railroad tracks is achieved with the aid of a device 30 whose main part includes a fixed horizontal arm or jib 31 , a pivotal bar 32 , a pivotal link element 33 located between the arm and the bar, and an hydraulic device 34 which engages the central part of said link element and which is pivotally mounted at its other end.
  • a device 30 whose main part includes a fixed horizontal arm or jib 31 , a pivotal bar 32 , a pivotal link element 33 located between the arm and the bar, and an hydraulic device 34 which engages the central part of said link element and which is pivotally mounted at its other end.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 A comparison between FIGS. 1 and 2 will make apparent the movements carried out by the various elements between the raised position of the bogie units 7 , 22 and the lowered track-engaging positions of respective bogie units.
  • the front single-axle rail-wheel unit 5 can also be moved into contact with the rails, e.g. with a more or less straight vertical movement.
  • One or both of the bogie units 7 , 22 may, alternatively, be comprised of single-axle units, suitably including an outwardly pivotal rail-provided support element that can be fixed in its position of use.
  • the semitrailer 20 is reversed up to the railroad track with all rail-wheel units 5 , 7 , 22 in the position shown in FIG. 1 , i.e. in a raised position.
  • the unit 22 When the rear rail-wheel unit 22 has taken the position shown in section a, the unit is turned to the position in which it is parallel with the track, whereupon the unit is lowered into contact with the track with the aid of the lifting device 30 , so that the rear road wheels 21 of the trailer 20 b will be raised.
  • the traction vehicle is then reversed further, via section b of said figure, to the position shown in section c of FIG. 3 , in which the rail wheel unit 7 is located above the track.
  • Rotation of the unit 7 to a parallel setting and application of the unit 7 against the track, is then effected in the same way as for the unit 22 , wherewith the rear wheels 3 of the traction vehicle are lifted away from contact with the underlying surface, i.e. can no longer be used to further reverse the vehicle.
  • At least one of the rail wheel units 7 and 22 is equipped with drive means, which is used to further reverse the semitrailer while guiding the front road wheels 2 to the position shown in section d of FIG. 3 .
  • the front single-axle rail wheel unit 5 will then lie in a parallel position over the track.
  • the rail wheels 4 are brought into contact with the track and the traction vehicle lifted to the raised position shown in FIG. 2 , i.e. the whole of the semitrailer 20 is track-bound with the use of all three rail-wheel units 5 , 7 , 22 .
  • the trailer can then be driven on the railroad track.
  • the driving force in the road wheels of the traction vehicle is utilised until the “intermediate unit”, i.e. the rear rail-wheel unit 7 of the traction vehicle, is in contact with the tracks.
  • This rail unit 7 must include drive means capable of achieving continued driving of the trailer onto the track.
  • both rail-wheel units 7 and 22 may be equipped with a drive motor.
  • a further alternative is that all rail-wheel units 5 , 7 and 22 can be driven.
  • the procedure undertaken to move the vehicle from the railroad track and convert it to its road-driving mode is carried out in the reverse order to that described above, i.e. in accordance with the sequence of events illustrated in sections d, c, b and a of FIG. 3 in that order, wherewith the front wheels 2 of the traction vehicle are used to angle the traction vehicle away from the railroad track while, at the same time, pushing forwards one of the rear rail-wheel units.
  • the “intermediate unit” 7 can be lifted in the position of section c of said figure, therewith enabling the rear wheels 3 of the traction vehicle to be used for driving purposes.
