It adopts an elastic cushion layer under the concrete support block, and rubber boots are added to the lower part and the periphery of the support block. After the height, level and track gauge of the support block are adjusted, the ballast bed concrete is poured in situ to wrap the support block together with the rubber boot. However, the stability and elasticity of the sleepers in the existing elastic support block type ballastless track are relatively low, and often cannot meet the high requirements of modern high-speed railways for stability and comfort. Summary of the invention

[0007] The rubber boot wraps the lower part of the concrete support block, the top of the rubber boot extends inwardly with a convex eave arranged circumferentially and matched with the first groove, and the inner wall of the rubber boot is provided with a plurality of truncated cone-shaped protrusions for enhancing elasticity;

[0008] The block lower pad is arranged between the bottom of the concrete support block and the rubber boot, and a protrusion which fits with the second groove is longitudinally arranged on the upper surface of the block lower pad.

[0009] Furthermore, the first groove is horizontally circumferentially arranged on the outer side wall of the concrete support block, and the lengths of two sides of the first groove are inconsistent, and the length of the upper side is longer than the length of the lower side.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper cross-sectional area of ​​the concrete support block is larger than the lower cross-sectional area.

[0019] 2. The gaps between the conical protrusions on the inner wall of the rubber boot of the utility model can provide the necessary "breathing" space for the sleeper when the concrete support block makes up and down piston movements, ensuring smooth flow of gas, effectively avoiding the adverse effects of internal pressure fluctuations on the sleeper performance, and further improving the durability and reliability of the sleeper.

[0020] 3. The utility model further enhances the elasticity and buffering effect of the block lower pad by configuring the block lower pad to be an upper and lower layer of rubber gaskets, configuring a hollow structure between the two layers of rubber gaskets, and configuring arc-shaped convex strips on the upper and lower surfaces of the block lower pad at intervals.

Of course, such objects can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein.

[0039] Example:

[0040] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, an elastic support block type ballastless track short sleeper includes a concrete support block 1, an embedded iron seat 2, a pad 3 under the block and a rubber boot 4. The concrete support block 1 is a main structure. The concrete support block 1 includes an upper part 12 and a lower part 14. A pair of embedded iron seats 2 are provided on the upper surface of the concrete support block 1 for installing rails and fasteners. The concrete support block 1 is a reinforced concrete structure to ensure high strength and durability.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , a first groove 11 is provided between the upper portion 12 and the lower portion 14 . The first groove 11 is horizontally arranged around a circle and embedded in the outer wall of the concrete support block 1 . A pair of second grooves 13 are longitudinally provided at the bottom of the concrete support block 1 .

[0042] Among them, the bottom of the first groove 11 is a concave arc, and the lengths of the two sides are inconsistent. The length of the upper side is longer than the length of the lower side. The cross-sectional area of ​​the upper part 12 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the lower part 14, so that the upper part 12 forms a raised brim structure, the upper end chamfer of the upper part 12 is an arc, and the lower end chamfer is an acute angle, the upper end chamfer of the lower part 14 is an arc, and the lower end chamfer is a flat angle, the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper part 12 gradually decreases from bottom to top, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the lower part 14 gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0043] Furthermore, the rubber boot 4 wraps the lower part 14 of the concrete support block 1 to provide elastic support. The rubber boot 4 is a basin-shaped structure that can fit tightly against the concrete support block 1. The rubber boot 4 is made of vulcanized synthetic rubber or natural rubber, and its size matches the lower part 14 of the concrete support block 1.

[0044] As shown in FIG7 , a circumferentially arranged convex eave 41 matching the first groove 11 extends inward from the top of the rubber overboot 4, and the size of the convex eave 41 matches the first groove 11 of the concrete support block 1. The end of the convex eave 41 located on the inner side of the rubber overboot 4 is a convex arc, matching the concave arc at the bottom of the first groove 11. The lower end of the convex eave 41 and the extension of the inner wall of the rubber overboot 4 are arc-shaped, matching the arc chamfer at the upper end of the lower part 14. The first groove 11 and the convex eave 41 match each other, which not only makes the rubber overboot 4 firmly installed on the lower part of the concrete support block 1, but also achieves an excellent sealing effect, can effectively prevent debris and rainwater from invading the inside of the rubber overboot 4, and prolongs the service life of the sleeper.

[0045] As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 , a number of truncated cone-shaped protrusions 42 for enhancing elasticity are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the rubber boot 4. The provision of the truncated cone-shaped protrusions 42, on the one hand, significantly enhances the elastic deformation capacity of the rubber boot 4, enabling it to better adapt to and disperse the pressure from above; on the other hand, when the concrete support block 1 generates up and down piston movement due to the dynamic load of the train, the gaps formed between the several truncated cone-shaped protrusions 42 can provide the necessary "breathing" space for the sleeper, ensure the smooth flow of gas, effectively avoid the adverse effects of internal pressure fluctuations on the sleeper performance, and further improve the durability and reliability of the sleeper.

[0046] Furthermore, the block lower pad 3 is arranged between the bottom of the concrete support block 1 and the rubber boot 4 for increasing elasticity and reducing vibration. The block lower pad 3 is made of synthetic rubber or natural rubber vulcanized.

[0047] As shown in FIG5 , a pair of protrusions 31 matching with the second groove 13 are longitudinally arranged on the upper surface of the block lower pad 3, and the size and relative position thereof match with the second groove 13 at the bottom of the concrete support block 1. The second groove 13 and the protrusion 31 match, which further enhances the stability of the block lower pad 3, effectively prevents the block lower pad 3 from moving under the action of the train load, ensures the overall stability of the track structure, and further improves the safety performance of the track.

[0048] In this embodiment, the second groove 13 and the protrusion 31 are both truncated cone structures.

[0049] As shown in FIG. 6 , the lower pad 3 is a rubber gasket 32 ​​arranged in two layers, and a hollow structure 33 including a plurality of gaps is arranged between the rubber gaskets 32 , so that the lower pad 3 has elastic compression deformation capability.

[0050] The gaps of the hollow structure 33 are triangular, square or circular.

[0051] Furthermore, a plurality of convex strips 34 are evenly spaced on the upper and lower surfaces of the block lower pad 3 . The convex strips 34 are arc-shaped structures, and the convex strips 34 on the upper and lower surfaces are staggered with each other, which further enhances the elasticity and buffering effect of the block lower pad 3 .

[0052] The above specific examples are used to illustrate the present invention, which are only used to help understand the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, some simple deductions, deformations or substitutions can be made based on the idea of ​​the present invention.
