Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of track detection, in particular to a track detection trolley and a track detection system. Background Art
[0002] The carriers of track inspection equipment currently used for railway lines are in the form of T-shaped (T-shaped trolley) or 4-wheel structure, and are mostly used in contact inspection equipment, such as track inspection instruments, etc. T-shaped trolleys or other forms of trolleys on the market are equipped with a roller at each end of the trolley to achieve the purpose of walking on the railway track. Similar trolleys all have a problem: when there is a rail gap at the connection between the front and rear sections of the rail on the seam line, the trolley will vibrate to varying degrees at the seam position during its walking on it due to its single-wheel structure, causing the equipment's detection results to deviate too much and fail to meet the detection requirements.
[0003] In addition, when this type of trolley passes through the harmful space of the turnout (the area at the tip of the heart rail, where the gap can be considered larger than the gap of the rail), due to the above reasons, it will shake more violently at this position and cannot obtain effective detection results. At present, most of the detection equipment uses the following three methods to handle the operation of the turnout part: requiring the data of the part passing through the harmful space of the turnout to be eliminated; directly requiring manual lifting to skip this area; or requiring to stop working within a certain distance before and after this area, and then restart work after passing this area.

For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0032] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0033] The present embodiment provides a track detection system, which is mainly used for track detection of railway lines. In order to solve the problem that the existing track detection trolley vibrates violently and is unstable when passing through gaps or harmful spaces of switches, the present embodiment provides a track detection trolley, which is specifically described as follows.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a track inspection trolley provided in this embodiment includes a frame 10, a first double-wheel mechanism 20, a second double-wheel mechanism 30 and an encoding assembly 40. The three first double-wheel mechanisms 20 and one second double-wheel mechanism 30 are respectively arranged on the four corners of the frame 10. The first double-wheel mechanism 20 includes two first rotating wheels 21, a first mounting frame 22 and a fastening nut 23. The first mounting frame 22 is connected to the frame 10. The two first rotating wheels 21 are both arranged on the first mounting frame 22 and fixed by the fastening nut 23. The encoding assembly 40 is arranged on the second double-wheel mechanism 30.
[0035] It can be understood that the present embodiment proposes a track inspection trolley structure with eight rollers installed, four pairs of rollers are installed on the four corners of the trolley respectively, and each pair of first rotating wheels 21 is installed at the same height through the first mounting frame 22. When passing through the rail gap or the harmful space area at the tip of the turnout heart rail, one of the first rotating wheels 21 enters the rail gap first, and the other rotating wheel remains close to the rail to support the entire trolley to move forward. Due to the consistent height, when the wheel entering the rail gap leaves and enters the next section of the rail, even if the rear roller enters the rail gap again, it will not affect the walking process of the entire equipment, so that the entire trolley is basically in a shaking-free condition when passing through the rail gap, so that the detection result of the equipment reaches an ideal state. Correspondingly, the same principle applies when passing through the harmful space at the tip of the heart rail of the turnout.
[0036] This embodiment changes the single-wheel structure in the prior art into a double-wheel structure, which can improve the stability of the detection trolley and enable it to smoothly pass through the rail gap and the harmful space at the tip of the switch heart rail. In addition, the encoder assembly is arranged on the double-wheel mechanism, so that the detection trolley can still maintain signal stability and integrity when passing through the rail gap and the harmful space at the tip of the switch heart rail.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the frame 10 includes a middle cross beam 11 and two end brackets 12, the two end brackets 12 are respectively arranged at both ends of the middle cross beam 11, and the two ends of one end bracket 12 are respectively connected to two first double-wheel mechanisms 20; the two ends of the other end bracket 12 are respectively connected to a first double-wheel mechanism 20 and a second double-wheel mechanism 30. In detail, there are two middle cross beams 11, and the two middle cross beams 11 are arranged in parallel.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the frame 10 further includes an adjustable bolt 13 and a spring 14. A through hole is provided on the end bracket 12. The adjustable bolt 13 passes through the through hole to connect the middle cross beam 11. The spring 14 is provided between the bolt head of the adjustable bolt 13 and the end bracket 12. It can be understood that when the adjustable bolt 13 is tightened, the spring 14 abuts against the end bracket 12. Since the spring 14 has a buffering effect, when the detection trolley is traveling on the track for detection, it can buffer some uneven tracks.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment, bolt holes 121 are provided at both ends of the end bracket 12, and bolts pass through the bolt holes 121 to connect the end bracket 12 and the double-wheel mechanism and the end bracket 12 and the second double-wheel mechanism 30. In detail, the bolt holes 121 are designed with a 0.5mm clearance adjustment margin, so that the first double-wheel mechanism 20 and the second double-wheel mechanism 30 can allow a 0-2 degree adjustment clearance when fixed to the end bracket 12, and the installation deviation (0.5mm) of the two wheels can be eliminated, so that the horizontal heights of the two wheels are kept consistent, thereby ensuring that the carrier is stable and does not shake during walking.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the first rotating wheel 21 includes a first wheel body 211, a first mounting shaft 212 and a first bearing 213. The first bearing 213 is arranged inside the first wheel body 211. One end of the first mounting shaft 212 is rotatably connected to the first bearing 213, and the other end is fixed to the first mounting frame 22 by a fastening nut 23. In detail, two first bearings 213 are arranged inside the first wheel body 211, and the first mounting shaft 212 is in close contact with the first mounting frame 22, and then fastened by the fastening nut 23, so that the first wheel body 211 and the first mounting frame 22 are perpendicular.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 5As shown, the second double-wheel mechanism 30 includes two second rotating wheels 31 and a second mounting frame 32. The two second rotating wheels 31 are rotatably arranged on the second mounting frame 32. The second mounting frame 32 is connected to the vehicle frame 10.
[0042] The second rotating wheel 31 includes a second wheel body 311, a second mounting shaft 312 and a second bearing 313. The second bearing 313 is disposed on the second mounting frame 32. The second mounting shaft 312 is disposed on the second bearing 313. One end of the second mounting shaft 312 is fixedly connected to the second wheel body 311, and the other end is connected to the encoding component 40. In detail, when the second wheel body 311 rotates, the second mounting shaft 312 can be driven to rotate, and the second bearing 313 is connected to the encoding component 40. Therefore, the rotation signal of the second wheel body 311 is captured by the encoding component 40 through the second mounting shaft 312, and the encoding component 40 analyzes the situation of the track through the rotation signal of the second wheel body 311.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the second double-wheel mechanism 30 further includes a first gear 33, a second gear 34 and a belt 35, wherein the first gear 33 and the second gear 34 are respectively arranged on two second mounting shafts 312, and the belt 35 connects the first gear 33 and the second gear 34. It can be understood that the two second mounting shafts 312 are connected by the first gear 33, the second gear 34 and the belt 35, so that no matter which of the second wheel bodies 311 is rotating, the encoder will obtain torque force and rotate at the same time. This avoids the situation where the encoder does not rotate due to one of the second wheel bodies 311 being suspended in the air when passing through the rail gap or the harmful section of the turnout center rail tip.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the track inspection vehicle further includes a mounting seat 50, a rotating rod 60 and a computer bracket 70. The mounting seat 50 is disposed on the vehicle frame 10. One end of the rotating rod 60 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 50, and the other end is connected to the computer bracket 70. It can be understood that the computer is placed on the computer bracket 70 and can be adjusted to any position by rotating the rod 60.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the distance between the two first rotating wheels 21 is 180 mm to 200 mm. In detail, the distance between the two second rotating wheels 31 is also 180 mm to 200 mm.
[0046] It can be understood that the center distance between the two first rotating wheels 21 or the two second rotating wheels 31 is 190 mm. This distance can effectively ensure that when one of the wheels is on the rail gap or the harmful space area at the tip of the turnout's heart rail, the other wheel is on the rail to play an effective supporting role.
[0047] The track inspection vehicle provided in this embodiment has the following advantages:
[0048] The track inspection trolley provided in this embodiment includes a frame 10, a first double-wheel mechanism 20, a second double-wheel mechanism 30 and an encoding assembly 40. The three first double-wheel mechanisms 20 and one second double-wheel mechanism 30 are respectively arranged at the four corners of the frame 10. The first double-wheel mechanism 20 includes two first rotating wheels 21, a first mounting frame 22 and a fastening nut 23. The first mounting frame 22 is connected to the frame 10. The two first rotating wheels 21 are both arranged on the first mounting frame 22 and fixed by the fastening nut 23. The encoding assembly 40 is arranged on the second double-wheel mechanism 30. This embodiment changes the single-wheel structure in the prior art into a double-wheel structure, which can improve the stability of the inspection trolley and can smoothly pass through the rail joint and the harmful space at the tip of the turnout heart rail. In addition, the encoder assembly is arranged on the double-wheel mechanism, so that the inspection trolley can still maintain the stability and integrity of the signal when passing through the rail joint and the harmful space at the tip of the turnout heart rail.
[0049] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
