Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to railway track processing technology, in particular to a groove-type wear-resistant rail guard and twisting machine for railway turnouts. Background Art

[0002] Grooved wear-resistant guardrail is a part made of grooved steel guardrail and wear-resistant alloy steel bar welded together. It is an essential accessory for railway turnout products (such as Figure 1 This product is used in railway turnouts to control the movement direction of train wheels, so that the wheels can pass through harmful spaces normally without entering the wheel flange grooves, and to protect the tip of the frog from being hit by the wheels. It is a must-have turnout accessory.

[0003] The wear-resistant guardrail is made of groove steel guardrail and wear-resistant alloy steel bar spliced ​​and submerged arc welded. After high-temperature welding, the welding rod filling the groove weld is fused with the groove steel and alloy steel bar into one. After rapid cooling, the weld shrinkage stress is extremely large. Moreover, the wear-resistant alloy steel bar is only welded in one corner of the entire groove steel guardrail and has two long welds (see Figure 1 ), in addition, the grooved steel guardrail itself may have a distortion of the installation base before processing (see Figure 2 ), which causes the shrinkage, deformation and distortion of the product to become more serious. Therefore, it is necessary to use straightening and correction equipment to process the semi-finished products after welding to ensure that the straightness and flatness of the product meet the technical requirements.

[0004] At present, the straightening machine used to correct the groove wear-resistant guardrail usually adopts local hydraulic bending operation. This kind of process is difficult to solve the problem of distortion of the installation base surface. Therefore, it is impossible to correct the severely distorted groove wear-resistant guardrail while maintaining the reference axis. If the correction operation is forced, the internal stress of the material will be concentrated in a certain part, causing product damage. Once it is impacted by gravity load during use, it will cause the guardrail to break, resulting in traffic safety accidents.

[0005] The deformation of profiles and guardrails after submerged arc welding will produce twisting and twisting, which seriously affects product quality, and it is difficult to completely correct it with existing ordinary top bending and straightening machines. Therefore, in order to improve the process flow and meet the technical quality requirements, it is necessary to propose a new solution to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

The connecting screw rod components 27 also include a connecting pressure plate 26, and the upper nut and the connecting pressure plate 26 are located between the rail heads of two adjacent steel rails in the bed component 6, so that the connecting pressure plate 26 is used as the force-bearing part of the screw installation between the adjacent rail heads.

[0056] Fig.12It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the roller component 9, in which the upper part is the main view and the lower part is the top view. As shown in the figure, the roller component 9 includes a strip support seat 29 perpendicular to the bed body component 6, and a roller assembly is arranged in the middle thereof; the roller assembly includes a mounting seat 42 and a roller 28, the mounting seat 42 is fixed to the upper part of the support seat 29, and the roller 28 is movably mounted in the mounting seat 42 and parallel to the support seat 29; the upper edge of the roller 28 is on the same horizontal plane as the lower edge of the inner space of the twist rail power head 11 and the lower edge of the inner space of the open pressure plate 21.

The hydraulic system also includes a hydraulic station 31, hydraulic pipelines, a manual M-type three-position four-way reversing valve, a pressure gauge switch, a pressure gauge, a relief valve, a plunger pump assembly, an air filter and an oil tank.

[0059] Design features of the hydraulic system: (1) The use of a manual M-type four-way reversing valve can effectively reduce the load on the oil pump motor, reduce the temperature of the hydraulic oil, improve the transmission efficiency of the hydraulic oil, reduce mechanical wear, and save electricity resources when unloading; (2) When the system is initially running, turn on the pressure gauge switch and gradually tighten the relief valve. When the pressure value on the pressure gauge rises to the rated working pressure of the system, stop adjusting the pressure, tighten the locking nut on the relief valve, and then turn off the pressure gauge switch to ensure that the pressure gauge is not affected by pressure changes when the system is working normally, thereby extending the service life of the pressure gauge. (3) The air filter is an auxiliary component on the oil tank. It is both an oil filling port and an oil filter. When working, it is also an air filter. It can ensure that the air pressure inside and outside the oil tank is consistent, which is extremely important for the normal operation of the system. (4) The hinged shaft double-acting cylinder is designed according to the specific needs of the rail twisting machine. A hinged shaft is installed in the middle of the cylinder to lower the height of the bed platform to meet the operating needs of the staff and the cylinder stroke requirements. The two cylinder pipelines adopt X-type synchronous connection method. When the piston rod of one cylinder is pushed out, the piston rod of the other cylinder is retracted, so as to achieve synchronous driving of the rail twisting power head to rotate.

[0060] 2. Operating Instructions of Groove Wear-resistant Rail Guard and Twisting Machine

[0061] (1) Lift the grooved wear-resistant guardrail 4 onto the roller component 9 → insert the rear part of the guardrail into the upper opening of the open pressure plate 21 → determine the starting point of the twisting surface of the guardrail → push the front end of the guardrail into the central square hole of the twisting rail power head 11 → move the movable tailstock component to the starting point of the twisting surface and fix it → fill the movable jaws in the twisting rail power head 11 and the open pressure plate 21 respectively to achieve front and rear positioning.

[0062] (2) When the hydraulic system is in operation, operate the manual reversing valve. The two oil cylinders drive the power head to swing in the opposite direction of the guardrail twist until it is twisted to a certain amount. Release the manual reversing valve to automatically return to the neutral position. Pause for a few seconds to relieve stress to overcome inertial rebound. Reverse the reversing valve until the power head is released to the guardrail in a natural state. Use the work surface as a reference and the square as a measuring tool to measure the verticality of each point. Repeat the cycle until the flatness meets the technical requirements. The guardrail curved surface correction is completed.

[0063] (3) Description of the working mode of the hydraulic system: Start the oil pump motor. Under normal circumstances, the hydraulic oil flows into the M-type manual reversing valve through the P port and flows out of the T port back to the oil tank, and the hydraulic system is unloaded and running; operate the reversing valve forward or backward, the hydraulic oil is input from the P port and output from the A port (B port), and flows into the upper and lower chambers of the two cylinders. At the same time, the hydraulic oil in the other upper and lower chambers of the two cylinders is discharged, enters the reversing valve from the B port (A port), and flows back to the oil tank out of the T port to complete the power output; because the oil supply and return pipelines of the upper and lower oil chambers of the two cylinders adopt the X-type connection method, that is, one end of the oil pipe is connected to the upper chamber of the cylinder and the other end is connected to the lower chamber of the other cylinder; the two cylinders use the center of the power head as the axis, push and pull up and down at both ends of the power head to perform telescopic movements to achieve mechanical synchronization, so that the power head produces rotation and up and down swing to do work, providing sufficient rotation torque, forcing the twisted guardrail to be corrected and leveled.
