[0075] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail with specific embodiments below. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0076] As described in the background technology of this application, the top of the railway rail is arc-shaped, and the rollers of the train carriages are clamped on the rails. The railway rails carry a large weight, and after a certain period of use, the railway rails will wear and cause surface unevenness or rust and other defects. In order to improve the safety of railway operation, it is necessary to grind the rails from time to time to eliminate the surface defects of the rails, so as to extend the service life of the rails and ensure the safety of train operation.

[0077] The inventor of the present application has found that since the rails are laid on tracks and their top surfaces are arc-shaped, it is inconvenient to grind the rails. Currently, they are generally ground manually, which is inefficient and difficult to ensure grinding accuracy and quality.

[0078] In order to solve the above problems, the inventor of the present application proposed the technical solution of the present application, and the specific embodiments are as follows:

[0079] Embodiment 1

[0080] The invention provides an online rail grinding method, which utilizes grinding equipment. Grinding devices (a pair) are arranged on both sides of the grinding equipment. The grinding devices on both sides of the grinding equipment correspond to two rails of the track.

[0081] The rail online grinding method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0082] S1. Install the grinding equipment on the track rail that needs to be ground.

[0083] S2. The grinding equipment automatically moves along the rails. When the grinding equipment moves, the grinding device grinds the two rails of the track at the same time. Specifically including:

[0084] S21, when the grinding equipment automatically moves in the positive direction (forward) along the track rail, the grinding devices on both sides of the grinding equipment simultaneously grind the first angle of the two rails of the track.

[0085] S22. When the grinding equipment automatically moves in the opposite direction (backward) along the track rails, the grinding devices on both sides of the grinding equipment grind the second angles of the two rails of the track simultaneously.

[0086] S3. Repeat steps S21 and S22 until the grinding operation of all angles of the rail is completed.

[0087] Specifically, the grinding equipment continuously moves back and forth along the track rails, and the grinding device continuously grinds the different angles of the arc surface of the rails until all the different angles of the arc top and side surfaces of the rails on both sides of the track are completed.

[0088] In this embodiment, the rail is automatically polished by the polishing equipment, and the polishing equipment can automatically reciprocate on the rail. Each time the polishing equipment moves, the polishing device of the polishing equipment can automatically polish an angle of the rail. The polishing equipment finally completes the polishing operation of all angles of the top and side surfaces of the circular arc of the rail through multiple reciprocating motions. The rail is polished quickly and efficiently, and the polishing quality and precision of the rail are improved.

[0089] Furthermore, in the rail online grinding method of this embodiment, a plurality of pairs of grinding devices are provided on the grinding equipment, and the plurality of pairs of grinding devices are arranged front and back on the grinding equipment, and the two grinding devices of each pair are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the grinding equipment.

[0090] Each time the grinding equipment moves, multiple pairs of grinding devices can grind multiple different angles of the rails at the same time, thereby reducing the number of back and forth reciprocating times of the grinding equipment while grinding the same number of angles of the rails.

[0091] Specifically, if the grinding device of the grinding equipment is provided with N pairs, the number of operations of the grinding equipment = the number of angles of the rails that need to be ground / N, thereby reducing the number of back and forth reciprocating times of the grinding equipment.

[0092] Embodiment 2

[0093] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an online rail grinding device in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, Figure 2 For the second embodiment of the present invention Figure 1 The enlarged view of A in Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a polishing module in the second embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of a grinding device in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of another angle of the grinding device in the second embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a grinding mechanism in Embodiment 2 of the present invention; Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of the rail-supporting device in the second embodiment of the present invention.

[0094] The present invention also provides an on-line rail grinding device capable of implementing the on-line rail grinding method in the above-mentioned embodiment.

[0095] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the rail online grinding equipment of this embodiment includes: a power car 1, a grinding module 2 and a control mechanism.

[0096] The power car 1 is arranged on the track rails to be polished, and the power car 1 can automatically move back and forth along the track rails.

[0097] The power vehicle 1 is provided with a supporting platform 11 .

[0098] At least two (a pair) grinding modules 2 are provided. The two grinding modules 2 are arranged on the support platform 11 of the power vehicle 1 and are arranged on both sides of the support platform 11 in a mirror-symmetrical manner. The two grinding modules 2 correspond to the two rails 100 on the track respectively.

[0099] Each grinding module 2 comprises a grinding device 21 and a rail-supporting device 22 .

[0100] The grinding device 21 of the grinding module 2 includes: a horizontal moving mechanism, an up and down moving mechanism, a rotating mechanism and a grinding mechanism.

[0101] The horizontal moving mechanism is arranged on the supporting platform 11 of the power car 1, the up-down moving mechanism is arranged on the horizontal moving mechanism, the rotating mechanism is arranged on the up-down moving mechanism, and the grinding mechanism is arranged on the rotating mechanism, so that the grinding mechanism of the grinding device 21 can move horizontally, move up-down, and rotate relative to the supporting platform 11, that is, the grinding mechanism can move horizontally, move up-down, and rotate relative to the rail 100, so that when the power car 1 moves back and forth along the rail 100, the grinding mechanism of the grinding device 21 can grind different angles of the arc surface of the rail.

[0102] The rail-supporting device 22 of the grinding module 2 is arranged on the supporting platform 11 and is used to abut against the outer side wall of the track rail 100, and the rail-supporting device 22 is arranged close to the grinding mechanism. When the power vehicle 1 moves along the rail, the rail-supporting device 22 can slide along the rail, thereby guiding the grinding mechanism. Whether the rail is straight or curved, the rail-supporting device 22 enables the grinding mechanism of the grinding device 21 to move along the extension direction of the rail, thereby realizing accurate grinding of the rail.

[0103] The control mechanism is arranged on the supporting platform 11 of the power vehicle 1. The power vehicle 1, the rail support device 22, and the horizontal moving mechanism, the vertical moving mechanism, the rotating mechanism and the grinding mechanism of the grinding device 21 are electrically connected to the control mechanism respectively. The control mechanism controls each actuator to perform corresponding preset actions according to a preset program to realize automatic, fast and precise grinding of the rails.

[0104] In this embodiment, when the power car moves along the rail, the control mechanism lowers the grinding mechanism to contact the arc surface of the rail through the up and down moving mechanism, and the grinding mechanism is started to grind the first angle of the arc surface of the rail.

[0105] When the power car moves backward along the rail, the control mechanism adjusts the horizontal position of the grinding mechanism relative to the rail through the horizontal movement mechanism, and adjusts the angle of the grinding mechanism relative to the rail through the rotation mechanism, and then the grinding mechanism is started to achieve the second angle grinding of the arc surface of the rail.

[0106] When the power car moves back and forth many times, the control mechanism controls the grinding mechanism to continuously adjust the position and angle, so that the grinding mechanism grinds multiple angles of the arc surface of the rail in sequence until the grinding operation of all angles of a rail is completed.

[0107] Then, the power car moves to the next rail (next section) that needs to be polished to continue polishing the rail.

[0110] The power supply mechanism and the gas supply mechanism are arranged on the support platform 11 of the power vehicle 1 and are electrically connected to the control mechanism respectively.

[0111] In this embodiment, the power supply mechanism can provide power to each actuator, and the gas supply mechanism can provide high-pressure gas to each actuator to adapt to the working requirements of the field environment, making the use of the grinding equipment more flexible. Of course, if conditions permit, each actuator can also be electrically connected to an external power system and powered by the external power system.

[0112] Optional, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in the rail online grinding equipment in this embodiment, the horizontal moving mechanism of the grinding device 21 includes: a first servo motor 2111, a first screw rod 2112 and a first slide 2113.

[0113] The first servo motor 2111 and the first screw rod 2112 are respectively arranged on the support platform 11 of the power vehicle 1. The motor shaft of the first servo motor 2111 is transmission-connected to one end of the first screw rod 2112 via a coupling 2101. The first servo motor 2111 is used to drive the first screw rod 2112 to rotate.

[0114] A slide rail is provided on the top surface of the supporting platform 11 .

[0115] The first slide 2113 is slidably arranged on the slide rail of the support platform 11 through a slider, and the first slide 2113 is engaged with the first screw rod 2112 through the slider. When the first screw rod 2112 rotates, the first slide 2113 moves horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the rail to adjust the horizontal position of the grinding mechanism.

[0116] The up-and-down moving mechanism of the polishing device 21 includes: a second servo motor 2121 , a second screw rod 2122 and a second slide table 2123 .

[0117] The first slide 2113 is provided with a vertically arranged slide rail.

[0118] The second servo motor 2121 and the second screw rod 2122 are respectively arranged on the first slide 2113 , and the motor shaft of the second servo motor 2121 is drivingly connected to the top end of the second screw rod 2122 via a coupling, and the second servo motor 2121 is used to drive the second screw rod 2122 to rotate.

[0119] The second slide 2123 is slidably arranged on the slide rail of the first slide 2113, and the second slide 2123 is engaged with the second screw rod 2122 through a slider. When the second screw rod 2122 rotates, the second slide 2123 moves up and down to adjust the height of the grinding mechanism.

[0120] The rotating mechanism includes: a third servo motor 2131 , a reducer 2132 and a fixing plate 2133 .

[0121] The third servo motor 2131 and the reducer 2132 are arranged on the second slide 2123. The motor shaft of the third servo motor 2131 is connected to the input end of the reducer 2132, and the output end of the reducer 2132 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 2133. The third servo motor 2131 drives the fixed plate 2133 to rotate through the reducer 2132 to adjust the angle of the grinding mechanism.

[0122] The grinding mechanism includes a grinding motor 2141 and a grinding wheel 2142 .

[0123] The grinding motor 2141 is disposed on the fixed plate 2133 of the rotating mechanism. The motor shaft of the grinding motor 2141 is in driving connection with the grinding wheel 2142. The grinding motor 2141 is used to drive the grinding wheel 2142 to rotate. The grinding wheel 2142 grinds the rail 100 when rotating.

[0124] Through the structural combination of this embodiment, the horizontal position, vertical position (height), and angle of the grinding wheel relative to the rail can be adjusted. Therefore, when the power car moves along the rail, the grinding wheel can grind the arc surface and side surface of the rail at different angles in sequence.

[0125] Furthermore, the rail online grinding device in this embodiment, the grinding mechanism also includes: a floating force control mechanism 2143.

[0126] The floating force control mechanism 2143 is disposed on the fixed plate 2133 of the rotating mechanism. When the fixed plate 2133 rotates, the floating force control mechanism 2143 rotates along with the fixed plate 2133 .

[0127] The grinding motor 2141 of the grinding mechanism is arranged on the sliding plate of the floating force control mechanism 2143 .

[0128] The company has applied for a patent for the floating force control mechanism 2143, the publication number of which is CN113732781A, and its detailed structure will not be described here.

[0129] In this embodiment, the grinding mechanism is arranged on the floating force control mechanism 2143, and the grinding force of the grinding wheel 2142 on the rail is controlled and adjusted by the floating force control mechanism 2143, so that the grinding pressure of the grinding wheel 2142 during grinding is kept constant, thereby achieving constant force grinding of the rail, and further improving the grinding accuracy and grinding quality of the rail.

[0130] Optional, such as Figure 7 As shown, in the rail online grinding equipment of this embodiment, the rail leaning device 22 includes: a telescopic cylinder 221, a connecting bracket 222, a roller 223, a fixed seat 224, a movable seat 225, a sliding rod 226, a guide sleeve 227 and a spring 228.

[0131] The supporting platform 11 of the power vehicle 1 is provided with a slide groove (not shown) penetrating from top to bottom.

[0132] The connecting bracket 222 is slidably arranged in the slide groove of the supporting platform 11 , and the top end of the connecting bracket 222 is connected to the movable rod of the telescopic cylinder 221 , and the telescopic movement of the movable rod of the telescopic cylinder 221 drives the connecting bracket 222 away from and / or close to the rail 100 .

[0133] The fixing seat 224 is disposed at the bottom end of the connecting bracket 222 .

[0134] The fixing seat 224 is provided with a slideway 2241 , and the guide sleeve 227 is fixedly disposed on the fixing seat 224 and penetrates into the slideway 2241 of the fixing seat 224 .

[0135] One end of the slide rod 226 is slidably disposed in the guide sleeve 227 and in the slideway 2241 of the fixed seat 224 , and the other end of the slide rod 226 is connected to the movable seat 225 .

[0136] The slide bar 226 is provided with a convex ring, and the convex ring of the slide bar 226 is located in the slideway 2241 of the fixing seat 224 .

[0137] The spring 228 is disposed in the slideway 2241 of the fixed seat 224 , and the left and right ends of the spring 228 respectively abut against the fixed seat 224 and the convex rings of the slide bar 226 , and the convex ring of the slide bar 226 abuts against the end surface of the guide sleeve 227 .

[0138] The roller 223 is rotatably arranged on the movable seat 225 through a bearing, and the roller 223 is arranged adjacent to the grinding wheel 2142 of the grinding mechanism. The roller 223 contacts and abuts against the side wall of the rail. When the power car 1 moves along the rail, the roller 223 rolls along the side wall of the rail, so that the grinding wheel 2142 moves along the extension direction of the rail.

[0139] In this embodiment, under the action of the telescopic cylinder, the roller contacts and abuts against the side wall of the rail. When the power car moves along the rail, under the action of the spring, the roller always keeps in contact with the rail and rolls along the rail to provide auxiliary guidance for the grinding wheel. Whether the rail extends in a straight line or in a curved direction, the grinding wheel can move along the extension direction of the rail to ensure the grinding accuracy of the rail.

[0140] Optionally, the rail online grinding equipment in this embodiment further includes: a dust removal mechanism.

[0141] The dust removal mechanism 3 includes a dust collecting hood 31, a dust collector 32, an exhaust fan and a connecting hose.

[0142] The dust collector 32 is disposed on the supporting platform 11 .

[0143] The number of dust hoods 31 corresponds to the number of grinding wheels 2142. The dust hoods 31 are arranged on the support platform 11, near the grinding wheels 2142. The dust hoods 31 are arranged on one side of the grinding wheels 2142, and the opening of the dust hoods 31 is arranged toward the grinding wheels 2142.

[0144] One end of the connecting hose (not shown) is connected to the dust collector 32 , and the other end of the connecting hose is connected to the air outlet sleeve 311 of the dust collecting cover 31 .

[0145] An exhaust fan (not shown) is connected to the connecting hose.

[0146] In this embodiment, when the grinding wheel is grinding the rail, the grinding chips, dust and other debris generated during the grinding are sucked into the dust collector 32 by the exhaust fan for collection and storage, so that the power car and the various actuators on the power car are kept clean and the working environment is purified.

[0147] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in the rail online grinding equipment in this embodiment, the grinding modules 2 are provided with multiple pairs.

[0148] The two grinding modules 2 of each pair are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support platform 11 , corresponding to the two rails 100 of the track.

[0149] A plurality of pairs of grinding modules 2 are arranged on the support platform 11 of the power vehicle 1 in a front-to-rear manner along the extension direction of the rail.

[0150] Each pair of grinding modules 2 is combined with the supporting platform to form a grinding unit, and the supporting platform of each grinding unit can be spliced ​​on the supporting platform of the power vehicle.

[0151] In this embodiment, the grinding module and the support platform are combined into a grinding unit. According to actual needs, the grinding unit (grinding module) can be provided with multiple pairs. When the power car is moving, the grinding wheels of multiple grinding modules can grind multiple angles of the rails at the same time, thereby reducing the number of back and forth reciprocating times of the power car when the rails are grinded at the same number of angles. That is, if there are N pairs of grinding modules on the power car, the number of operations of the power car = the number of angles that the rails need to be polished / N.

[0152] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 There are two pairs of grinding modules 2 in the middle. Each time the power car moves, the grinding modules can complete the grinding of two angles of the rail at the same time, so that the number of movements of the grinding car is: the number of angles of the rail that need to be ground / 2.

[0153] Moreover, each pair of grinding modules is an independent working unit and can be spliced ​​on the supporting platform of the power vehicle at any time, which makes installation convenient and easy.

[0154] Furthermore, in the rail online grinding equipment in this embodiment, the power vehicle 1 is provided with a driving motor 12 and a driving roller 13 .

[0155] The driving roller 13 is arranged at the bottom of the supporting platform 11 of the power vehicle 1 .

[0156] There are multiple pairs of driving rollers 13 , and each pair of driving rollers 13 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the power vehicle 1 and clamped on two steel rails 100 of the track.

[0157] The drive motor 12 is arranged on the support platform 11 , the motor shaft of the drive motor 12 is transmission-connected to the drive roller 13 , and the drive motor 12 is electrically connected to the control mechanism, and the drive motor 12 is used to drive the drive roller 13 to rotate, so that the power vehicle 1 moves forward and backward along the rail 100 .
