Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to track maintenance machinery control technology, and in particular to a method for grinding ballastless track bearing platforms. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the increasing mileage and operational time of ballastless high-speed railway lines in my country, the demand for routine maintenance and repair of ballastless track lines is extremely urgent. To ensure the normal and safe operation of high-speed trains, the Track Quality Index (TQI) requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. An excessively high TQI value is highly detrimental to high-speed train safety. Settlement or arching of the roadbed will affect the TQI value, and maintenance and repair to restore the TQI value after changes are necessary to ensure high-speed train safety.

[0003] For minor settlement and camber changes in the track quality index (TMI) of ballastless track, adjustments to the rail fastening system can restore the TMI and ensure operational safety. However, for sections with significant camber exceeding the adjustment range of the rail fastening system, alternative methods include dismantling and rebuilding the track bed slabs and subgrade beneath the sleepers, or re-grinding and repairing the rail piers to ensure they meet the track quality requirements for high-speed train operation. Rail pier grinding and repair demands high contour accuracy, which manual grinding cannot achieve; therefore, mechanized contour grinding is the necessary choice.

[0004] Currently, there is no mature control system or method for grinding track bearing platforms. This application proposes a control method for simultaneously grinding three or more sleepers using a grinding device for ballastless track bearing platforms. This method enables automatic control of the grinding process, reduces manual intervention, and improves grinding efficiency.

[0005] In view of the above, this application is hereby submitted. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the exemplary embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not an exhaustive list of all embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] This embodiment provides a method for grinding a ballastless track support platform. In practical applications, this method can be implemented by a computer program, such as application software; or, the method can also be implemented by a medium storing the relevant computer program, such as a USB flash drive or cloud storage; or, the method can also be implemented by a physical device that integrates or installs the relevant computer program, such as a chip or a portable smart device.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application provides a method for grinding a ballastless track support platform, including:

[0024] Step 101: Obtain the data information of the rail support platform to obtain the total grinding amount D of the rail support platform;

[0025] The data information for the rail support platform can be established in advance based on the actual data of the rail support platform, or commonly used rail support platform data can be directly used.

[0026] In practice, the total grinding amount D of the rail support platform can be any value from 0 to 40 mm or above.

[0027] Step 102: Based on the single-pass grinding depth capability d of the grinding device, decompose the total grinding amount into N=D / d, where N is the number of grinding passes;

[0028] Specifically, by decomposing the total grinding amount D for each rail support platform, and based on the single grinding depth capability d of the grinding device, the total grinding amount is decomposed into N single grinding operations, where N = D / d, and the final grinding amount is dn ≤ D / N.

[0029] Step 103: Process the single grinding depth capacity d, the number of grinding times N, and the total grinding amount D of the grinding device to establish a preset grinding program;

[0030] Step 104: The grinding device grinds each layer of the support platform in sequence according to the preset grinding program.

[0031] In practice, the grinding device performs grinding operations on the rail support platform according to the grinding path of the rail support platform. It is divided into the first layer d1 grinding three sleepers. After each sleeper is ground, the Z direction is raised by h1, and the idle stroke is b distance. When the idle stroke is on, the X direction moving speed is increased. When there is a cutting depth, the X direction moving speed is the working speed. The second layer d2 grinding three sleepers, the third layer d3 grinding three sleepers, ..., the nth layer dn grinding three sleepers.

[0032] After grinding three or more pairs of rail supports, when the grinding depth reaches D=d1+d2+d3+...+dn, the grinding head returns to its starting point.

[0033] As a specific implementation method, before grinding the rail support platform of each sleeper in sequence according to the preset grinding program, the position of the grinding device and the rail support platform is adjusted along the X, Y and Z directions.

[0034] Specifically, adjusting the position of the grinding device and the support platform along the X, Y, and Z directions includes:

[0035] (1) Along the X direction, the grinding device is self-propelled and positioned;

[0036] (2) Adjust the position along the Y direction to align the alignment shoe with the outer contour of the bearing platform;

[0037] (3) Adjust the position along the Z direction so that the grinding wheel of the grinding device is aligned with the inner contour of the support table;

[0038] (4) Adjust the position along the Y and Z directions so that the grinding wheel of the grinding device adapts to the bottom slope of the rail.

[0039] As one specific implementation method, the track support platform for each pair of sleepers is ground, followed by:

[0040] The grinding wheel of the grinding device is raised to the tool setting position, and the rapid movement stroke b is moved to the grinding starting point of the support platform of the next sleeper.

[0041] As a specific implementation method, the rail bearing platform of each pair of sleepers is ground, including:

[0042] For each pair of sleepers, the two rail bearing platforms are ground with the first cut to a depth of d. After the first cut is completed, d is raised and the sleeper returns to the starting point of the first sleeper. Then the second cut is made, and the process is repeated to complete the total grinding of the two rail bearing platforms of the sleeper.

[0043] Furthermore, as a specific implementation method, the final grinding amount of the grinding device is dn≤D / N.

[0044] Furthermore, as a specific implementation method, N=D / d, and when there is a remainder after division, polishing is performed according to the remainder.

[0045] As one specific implementation, the position is adjusted along the Z direction to align the grinding wheel of the grinding device with the inner contour of the support table; including:

[0046] (1) Adjust the vertical position of the grinding wheel along the Z direction so that the outline of the grinding wheel fits into the support table;

[0047] (2) Adjust the rotation of the grinding wheel head to eliminate the gap between the grinding wheel and the contour of the support table, so that the grinding wheel is completely aligned with the inner contour of the support table, and complete the tool setting.

[0048] In specific implementation, as one particular method, the grinding device is placed on the adjacent track slab of the section with the arching defect to perform grinding operations on the track support platform of the section with the arching defect.

[0049] As a specific implementation method, this application provides a method for grinding the ballastless track bearing platform. In practice, a ballastless track bearing platform grinding vehicle can enter the construction section of the arch defect from the adjacent line, park near the construction section, and the vehicle is equipped with a bearing platform grinding device. The mechanical mechanism set on the vehicle places the grinding device on the adjacent track plate to start the bearing platform grinding operation.

[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the specific construction method is as follows:

[0051] (1) The grinding device is suspended on the ballastless track slab, with four traveling wheels resting on the edge of the track slab. The accuracy of the traveling wheels' placement is manually checked. In practice, the guiding and clamping devices of the grinding device are quickly installed to prevent the device from derailing, and the hydraulic lines are manually connected. The guiding and clamping devices use a quick-connect method, which allows for rapid assembly and disassembly. The grinding device is positioned, and if it reaches the marked line, the next step is to align the shoe and the support platform; if it does not reach the marked line, the grinding device positioning is repeated.

[0052] (2) Position the shoe and the rail support platform and lift it by a distance H;

[0053] Specifically, the position is adjusted along the X direction. According to the requirements of the rail support table to be ground, the grinding device is remotely operated to move to the work position that needs to be ground, and the front and rear alignment shoes are aligned with the position of the rail support table.

[0054] Adjust the position along the Y direction, align the alignment device with the outer arc of the support plate shoulder, and lift and align the grinding device.

[0055] Specifically, if the alignment is not satisfactory, the lifting and alignment can be repeated. After the lifting and alignment is completed, the clamping cylinder of the clamping device can be operated to hold the track plate tightly.

[0056] (3) Align the grinding wheel with the inner contour of the support platform during the cutting process.

[0057] Specifically, the grinding wheel mechanism is remotely or mechanically operated to adjust the track movement mechanism along the X direction, so that the grinding wheel moves to the starting position above the track support table to be ground;

[0058] The grinding wheel mechanism can be remotely or mechanically operated to adjust the lateral movement mechanism of the grinding wheel along the Y direction, so that the two "inverted V" inclined surfaces of the grinding wheel are aligned with the "inverted V" inclined surfaces of the support table;

[0059] The grinding wheel mechanism can be remotely or mechanically operated to adjust the grinding wheel along the Z direction so that the profile of the grinding wheel fits into the support table.

[0060] In practice, to eliminate the gap between the grinding wheel and the rail support platform's contour and ensure that the grinding wheel perfectly matches the inner contour of the rail support platform, the grinding wheel head is rotated via remote control or mechanical operation to complete the tool setting. After tool setting, the hydraulic system is used to clamp the grinding mechanism, ensuring that the rail base slope angle does not change. At this point, tool setting is complete, and the system memorizes the coordinate values.

[0061] (4) Confirm the tool setting position along the X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction. Then, operate the grinding head to return to the origin. The grinding wheel is raised by H distance in the Z direction and moved back by a distance in the X direction, and then lowered to the tool setting coordinates (Z value, X value, Y value).

[0062] (5) Start the No. 1 main motor for grinding. The motors are started in sequence. After the first motor starts and runs smoothly, the second main motor No. 2 starts. After a period of time (or both motors can be started at the same time), the two grinding motors can be started and stopped separately, and the grinding amount can be controlled separately.

[0063] (6) After the grinding wheel 1 rotates at high speed, the grinding wheel 1 moves to the tool setting position to start the grinding operation. According to the cutting amount d1, the No. 1 sleeper bearing platform is automatically ground. The No. 1 bearing platform is ground in N=D / d times, that is, the bearing platform of the first pair of sleepers 5 is ground. The grinding path is the first pair of sleeper grinding path 2. After the last grinding, you can choose whether to repeat the grinding of the previous trajectory to improve the grinding quality.

[0064] (7) After the No. 1 sleeper bearing platform is finished, the grinding wheel 1 is raised by h1, and the grinding wheel 1 moves quickly by b distances with no cutter until it reaches the No. 2 bearing platform for grinding. The No. 2 sleeper bearing platform is automatically ground according to the cutting amount d1. The No. 2 bearing platform is ground in N=D / d times, which is the grinding of the bearing platform of the second pair of sleepers 6. The grinding path is the grinding path 3 of the second pair of sleepers. After the last grinding, you can choose whether to repeat the grinding of the previous trajectory to improve the grinding quality.

[0065] (8) After the No. 2 sleeper bearing platform is polished, the polishing wheel 1 is raised by h1 and the polishing wheel 1 moves quickly by b distances to the No. 3 bearing platform for polishing. The No. 3 sleeper bearing platform is automatically polished according to the cutting amount d1. The No. 3 bearing platform is polished in N=D / d times, that is, the bearing platform of the third pair of sleepers 7 is polished. The polishing path is the third pair of sleeper polishing path 4. After the last polishing, you can choose whether to repeat the polishing of the previous trajectory to improve the polishing quality.

[0066] (9) The grinding head performs the grinding operation of the rail bearing platform according to the grinding path of the rail bearing platform. It is divided into the first layer d1 grinding three sleepers. After each sleeper is ground, the Z direction is raised by h1, and the idle stroke is b distance. When the idle tool is used, the X direction moving speed is increased. When there is a cutting amount, the X direction moving speed is the working speed. The second layer d2 grinding three sleepers, the third layer d3 grinding three sleepers, ..., the nth layer dn grinding three sleepers.

[0067] (10) After grinding three or more pairs of rail bearing platforms in sequence, when the grinding depth reaches D=d1+d2+d3+...+dn, the grinding head returns to the starting point;

[0068] (11) The grinding device moves to the next work position to prepare for the start of the cycle operation.

[0069] It is worth noting that the grinding device and the guiding and clamping devices in the grinding device can be implemented using existing technology, and the specific mechanism of the grinding device is not the focus or innovation of the application, so it will not be described in detail.

[0070] Based on the above, the technical solution provided in this application can address the complex working conditions encountered during the grinding of adjacent sleepers on the ballastless track bearing platform, where the grinding requirements differ, thereby improving grinding efficiency and achieving full automation of the operation. At the same time, this application can save the time spent on sleeper spacing operations, allowing limited time to be utilized for the grinding operation on the bearing platform, thus improving construction efficiency.

[0071] It is worth noting that this application is applicable to the grinding of rail bearing platforms for single-sleeper, double-sleeper, triple-sleeper, and higher-level rail sleepers. It can achieve grinding of rail bearing platforms covering three or more sleepers; it realizes automated grinding of multiple sleepers with different grinding requirements on-site, meeting complex and personalized needs and improving the grinding efficiency of rail bearing platforms. By adopting this grinding control method, the idle travel time between sleepers can be effectively shortened, grinding efficiency can be improved, and automatic control of the grinding process can be achieved.
