[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific examples and accompanying drawings.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. For example, terms such as “length,” “width,” “upper,” “lower,” “left,” “right,” “front,” “rear,” “vertical,” “horizontal,” “top,” “bottom,” “inner,” and “outer” indicate orientations or positions based on the orientations or positions shown in the accompanying drawings and are merely for ease of description and should not be construed as limiting the invention.

[0045] The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this utility model are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this utility model are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order. "A plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0046] In the description, claims, and accompanying drawings of this utility model, when an element is referred to as "fixed to," "mounted to," "set on," or "connected to" another element, it can be directly or indirectly located on that other element. For example, when an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it can be directly or indirectly connected to that other element.

[0047] In related technologies, when railway vehicles (such as trains and subways) are parked in a depot, a safety rail is placed on the track where the vehicle is located to prevent it from sliding. If the safety rail is not removed from the track when the vehicle is started again, the vehicle could derail, causing a safety accident.

[0048] To prevent the aforementioned safety incidents and improve vehicle operation safety, this utility model proposes a shoe placement device for placing wheel chocks. This device can be installed beside the track. When the wheel chocks are not in use, they can be placed in the device, which will then issue a warning signal indicating that the chocks are correctly placed. When a railway vehicle is parked in the depot, the wheel chocks can be removed from the device and placed on the track where the vehicle is parked to prevent it from sliding. In this case, the device will not issue any warning signal, indicating that the wheel chocks are not in the device. If the parked vehicle is started at this time, it is necessary to check whether wheel chocks are placed under the wheels. By observing the warning signal, staff can visually understand the placement status of the wheel chocks, effectively ensuring the safety of parked vehicles and avoiding safety risks such as derailment or off-track movement caused by moving vehicles with wheel chocks.

[0049] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0050] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, the metal shoe placement device 10 provided by this utility model may include a metal shoe placement part 11, a switch assembly 12, and a warning system 13. The metal shoe placement part 11 may include a base plate 111 and a pressure plate 112 disposed on one side of the base plate 111, with one end of the pressure plate 112 rotatably connected to the base plate 111. One end of the switch assembly 12 abuts against the pressure plate 112. The warning system 13 is disposed on one side of the metal shoe placement part 11 and is connected to the switch assembly 12 for switching.

[0051] The metal shoe placement device provided by this utility model has a preset angle between the pressure plate and the base plate when the metal shoe is not placed in the metal shoe placement part. In some examples, the included angle between the pressure plate and the base plate is in the range of 20° to 45° when the metal shoe is not placed in the metal shoe placement part. For example, the included angle between the pressure plate and the base plate can be any one of 25°, 30°, 35° and 40°, and is not specifically limited here.

[0052] The metal shoe placement device provided by this utility model allows the portion of the pressure plate 112 not connected to the base plate 111 to rotate under the weight of the metal shoe when the metal shoe is placed in the metal shoe placement part, thereby closing the switch assembly 12 and causing the warning system 13 to issue a warning under the action of the closed switch.

[0053] The iron shoe placement device provided by this utility model enables the management of iron shoes and the monitoring of their placement status. This allows staff to be alerted to whether the iron shoes are placed in the correct position, thus enabling timely detection of abnormalities. While ensuring the safety of parked vehicles, it also avoids safety risks such as derailment and track breakage caused by moving vehicles with iron shoes, thereby improving the safety of rail vehicle operation.

[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the switch assembly 12 may include a limit switch 121. The limit switch 121 may include a switch unit, a connecting rod 1211, and a roller 1212. The switch unit includes a housing and a switch installed in the housing. One end of the connecting rod 1211 is rotatably connected to the side of the housing of the switch unit near the base plate 111, and the other end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the roller. The roller abuts against the part of the pressure plate 112 that is not connected to the base plate 111.

[0055] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, during the process of placing the iron shoe into the iron shoe placement device 10, that is, when the iron shoe moves towards the base plate 111 of the iron shoe placement device 10 along the path indicated by path ①, the pressure plate 112 rotates under the gravity of the iron shoe. The end of the pressure plate 112 that is not connected to the base plate 111 moves along the path indicated by path ② under the gravity of the iron shoe. At the same time, the roller 1212 drives the connecting rod 1211 to move along path ③ under the action of the pressure plate 112, thereby closing the switch of the switch unit and illuminating the warning light of the warning system 13.

[0056] Correspondingly, when the metal shoe is removed from the metal shoe placement device 10, the connecting rod 1211 of the switch assembly 12 automatically lifts up, and the roller 1212 drives the pressure plate 112 to return to its original position, the switch is turned off, and the warning light is turned off.

[0057] This utility model embodiment achieves the management of iron shoes through the above-mentioned iron shoe placement device. It can monitor the placement status of the iron shoes, thereby reminding staff whether the iron shoes are placed in the correct position, thus promptly detecting abnormalities. While ensuring the safety of parked vehicles, it can also avoid safety risks such as vehicle derailment and derailment caused by moving vehicles with iron shoes, thereby improving the safety of rail vehicle operation.

[0058] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the iron shoe placement part 11 may further include a rotating shaft 115, a first mounting part 113 connected to one end of the pressure plate 112, and two second mounting parts 114 disposed at both ends of the first mounting part. The first mounting part 113 and the second mounting part 114 both have through holes. The first mounting part 113 is fixedly connected to one end of the pressure plate 112, and the second mounting part 114 is fixedly connected to the base plate 111. The rotating shaft 115 passes through the through holes of the first mounting part 113 and the two second mounting parts 114, and the rotation of the pressure plate 112 relative to the base plate 111 is realized by the rotating shaft 115, the first mounting part 113, and the two second mounting parts 114.

[0059] This embodiment of the utility model achieves a rotatable connection between the pressing plate 112 and the base plate 111 through the above solution.

[0060] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 5a, the shoe placement portion 11 may further include a first groove 115 extending along a first direction X. A first opening 116 is provided on the portion of the base plate 111 located in the first groove 115, and the orthographic projection of the pressure plate 112 on the base plate 111 at least partially overlaps with the first opening 116. One end of the switch assembly 12 extends through the first opening 116 to the first groove 115 and abuts against the pressure plate 112.

[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, the first groove 115 is used to accommodate the iron shoe. When the iron shoe needs to be placed in the iron shoe placement device 10, it can be placed in the first groove 115 of the iron shoe placement part 11, thereby fixing the iron shoe and enhancing the management effect of the iron shoe. In some examples, to better place the iron shoe, the first groove 115 may include a base plate and a first side plate, a second side plate, and a third side plate perpendicularly connected to the base plate. The base plate of the first groove 115 is the same base plate as the base plate 111 of the iron shoe placement part 11. The first side plate, the second side plate, and the third side plate are connected in sequence. The second side plate is located near the warning system, and the side of the first groove 115 opposite to the second side plate is the opening of the first groove 115. In some examples, to better place the iron shoe, an opening can also be provided on the side of the third side plate of the first groove 115 near the second side plate.

[0062] In this embodiment of the utility model, the orthographic projection of the pressure plate on the base plate can completely cover the first opening, thereby ensuring that the end of the switch assembly 12 that abuts against the pressure plate 112 has sufficient room for movement, improving the reliability of switch closure and the accuracy of monitoring the placement status of the iron shoe.

[0063] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5b and 5c As shown, the iron shoe placement part 11 may also include a third groove 118 arranged side by side with the first groove 115, which can be used to place spare iron shoes.

[0064] This utility model embodiment strengthens the monitoring of the placement status of the track shoe through the above solution, which can promptly detect abnormal placement status of the track shoe. While ensuring the safety of parked vehicles, it can also avoid safety risks such as derailment and track breakage caused by moving vehicles with track shoes, thereby improving the safety of rail vehicle operation.

[0065] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the iron shoe placement part of the iron shoe placement device may also include a plurality of first brackets 117 disposed on the side of the base plate 111 away from the pressure plate 112.

[0066] In this embodiment of the utility model, the first bracket 117 and the base plate 111 can be connected by welding.

[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, the included angle between the first support 117 and the base plate 111 is in the range of 30° to 90°. For example, the included angle between the first support 117 and the base plate 111 can be any one of 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60° and 65°, and is not specifically limited here.

[0068] In this embodiment of the invention, the base plate 111 can be square, for example, a square or a rectangle. The iron shoe placement part 11 may include four first supports 117, which are respectively disposed at the four corners of the base plate 111.

[0069] This utility model embodiment improves the reliability of the connection between the first support and the base plate through the above solution.

[0070] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the shoe placement device 10 also includes a second bracket 14. The warning system 13 is connected to the shoe placement part 11 via the second bracket 14.

[0071] In some examples, such as Figure 6 As shown, the warning system 13 of the shoe placement device 10 may further include a support rod 131, a warning light 132 and a battery 133 disposed on one side of the support rod 131. One end of the support rod 131 is connected to the shoe placement part 11 via a second bracket 14. The warning light 132 and the battery 133 are connected to both ends of a switch via cables.

[0072] In some examples, such as Figure 8 As shown, the shoe placement device 10 may include two second supports 14. The two second supports 14 are respectively disposed on both sides of the support rod 131 and are respectively connected to the first supports near them. This improves the reliability of the connection between the warning system 13 and the shoe placement part 11, making the connection between the two more stable.

[0073] Specifically, the included angle between the two second supports 14 can be in the range of 30° to 120°. For example, any one of 35°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, 90°, 100° and 110°, without being specifically limited here.

[0074] This embodiment achieves the management of track shoes through the above-described scheme. The placement status of the track shoes can be intuitively monitored through warning lights, thereby reminding staff whether the track shoes are placed in the correct position and promptly detecting abnormalities. While ensuring the safety of parked vehicles, it can also avoid safety risks such as derailment and off-track caused by moving vehicles with track shoes, thus improving the safety of rail vehicle operation.

[0075] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 7 As shown, in addition to the support rod 131, warning light 132 and battery 133, the warning system 13 of the iron shoe placement device may also include a power controller 134 and a solar panel 135 disposed on one side of the support rod 131. The solar panel 135, warning light 132, battery 132 and switch are respectively connected to the power controller 134.

[0076] In this embodiment, the battery 133 can be a storage battery, and the solar panel 135 can continuously receive solar energy and convert it into electrical energy, which is then sent to the storage battery for storage via the power controller 134. The connection between the storage battery and the warning light 132 is controlled by a limit switch. When the limit switch is open, the warning light 132 is not lit; when the limit switch is closed, the storage battery supplies power to the warning light 132, thereby illuminating the warning light 132.

[0077] The aforementioned solution uses warning lights to indicate whether wheel chocks have been removed from the tracks, allowing staff to monitor the status of each chock at any time. This enables timely detection and handling of any abnormalities, effectively ensuring the safety of parked rail vehicles (such as trains) and preventing derailment or other safety risks caused by moving vehicles with wheel chocks. Furthermore, since the area near the rail vehicle stop line is generally open, solar panels can maximize their photovoltaic efficiency, charging batteries when the rail vehicle is not parked, meeting nighttime usage needs and conserving energy.

[0078] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0079] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
