It is completely a manual operation. The towing rods are relatively heavy, and the connection is laborious. At least two people are required to cooperate with the operator of the combined road-rail vehicle to complete the connection operation. After the towing operation is completed, if the towing rod needs to work at other workstations, there is also the problem of inconvenient handling. Moreover, there are many types of railway freight car bogies, and there are huge differences in the positions and towing methods of the towing points. It is impossible for the towing rods to be universal and can only be specialized. These are the problems existing in the maintenance, repair, and assembly of railway freight car bogies. In addition, for the transfer operation of freight car wheelsets, it is basically completely pushed by manual labor, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also unsafe and has very low efficiency.

[0022] In order to make the structure and function of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0023] See the attached Figures 1-10 , a quick coupling device for a dual-purpose tractor for highway and railway, comprising a sliding seat 1, a hook body assembly 3, and a hook head 4; the sliding seat 1 and the hook head 4 are connected through the hook body assembly 3.

[0025] Further, it also includes a square hydraulic cylinder 2 and a hinge seat 5; one end of the square hydraulic cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1a, and the other end of the square hydraulic cylinder 2 is hingedly connected to the hinge seat 5; a through hole is provided between two reinforcing ribs 1b on the vertical plate 1c, and the hinge seat 5 passes through the through hole of the vertical plate 1c and is connected to the hook body assembly 3; the sliding seat of the quick coupling device is bolted to the front end face of the rail-road vehicle, and the original hydraulic station of the rail-road vehicle is used to provide high-pressure oil for the quick coupling device to drive the square hydraulic cylinder to act; the advantage of the square hydraulic cylinder is that it has a shorter length than an ordinary hydraulic cylinder under the same stroke, which can maximize the compression of the distance in the height direction; further improving the application range of the coupling device, and it can even be applied to a rail-road vehicle with a height of only 400 mm.
[0026] Further, the hinge seat 5 includes a special-shaped connecting body 5a and a connecting plate 5b. The special-shaped connecting body 5a is Z-shaped. One end of the special-shaped connecting body 5a is hingedly connected to the square hydraulic cylinder 2, and the other end of the special-shaped connecting body 5a is vertically connected to one side of the connecting plate 5b, and the other side of the connecting plate 5b is connected to the hook body assembly 3.
[0027] Further, the hook body assembly 3 includes a rear connecting seat plate 3a, a connecting square pipe 3b and a front connecting seat plate 3c; the rear connecting seat plate 3a and the front connecting seat plate 3c are connected by the connecting square pipe 3b; the rear connecting seat plate 3a is connected to the connecting plate 5b; a linear slide rail 6 perpendicular to the ground is provided on the side of the vertical plate 1c close to the hook body assembly 3, and a slider 7 matching the linear slide rail 6 is provided on the side of the rear connecting seat plate 3a connected to the connecting plate 5b; the front connecting seat plate 3c is connected to the hook head 4; the hook body assembly 3 and the sliding seat 1 are connected by two sets of linear guide pairs. This structure enables the hook body assembly 3 to move smoothly up and down relative to the sliding seat under the drive of the square hydraulic cylinder 2 while ensuring sufficient connection strength, facilitating the hook head to hook the axle body of the freight car wheel set.
[0028] Further, the hook head 4 includes a hook head body 4a, rollers 4b and pin shafts 4c; the hook head body 4a is a concave frame, and a plurality of through holes are provided at both ends and the bottom of the concave frame. A plurality of transverse pin shafts 4c are arranged at intervals at both ends and the bottom of the concave frame, and rollers 4b are arranged on each of the plurality of pin shafts 4c. The rollers 4b pass through the through holes and are rotatably connected to the pin shafts 4c; the hook body assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of one end of the hook head body 4a; the hook head and the hook body are connected by bolts, which is convenient for replacing and upgrading the hook head in the future. The hook head is integrated with rollers, which will rotate as the wheel set rolls when dragging the freight car bogie and the freight car wheel set, and can effectively protect the axle body from unnecessary damage during the transfer process.
[0029] In the quick coupling device of the present utility model, the bottom plate 1a in the sliding seat 1 is connected to the rail-road dual-purpose tractor by bolts. As Figure 8 shown, its bottom plate 1a is connected to the square hydraulic cylinder 2 by screws. The front end of its vertical plate 1c is connected to the linear slide rail. The slider 7 that cooperates with the linear slide rail 6 is connected to the rear connection seat plate 3a in the hook body 3 by bolts. In this way, the hook body 3 and the sliding seat 1 complete the up-and-down sliding fit relationship under the constraint of this guide rail.
[0030] The square hydraulic cylinder 2 is connected to the special-shaped connection body 5a in the hinge seat 5 by a pin shaft. The connecting plate 5b in the hinge seat 5 is connected to the rear connecting plate 3a in the hook body 3 by bolts. In this way, when the square hydraulic cylinder 2 acts, it can drive the hook body 3 and the hook head 4 to move up and down.
[0031] The working process is as follows: First, the rail-road dual-purpose vehicle drives to the designated position, that is, when the hook head 4 of the quick coupling device is directly below the axle body of the freight car bogie wheel set or directly below the axle body of the freight car wheel set. Then, start the hydraulic station of the rail-road dual-purpose tractor to supply high-pressure oil to the square hydraulic cylinder 2. The square hydraulic cylinder 2 acts, driving the hook head 4 to hook the axle body. As Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the coupling can be completed. When towing or pushing the freight car bogie or the freight car wheel set, since the axle body of the freight car wheel set also rotates, the roller 4a in the hook head 4 also rolls accordingly, playing a role in protecting the axle body. When the towing or pushing operation is completed, the uncoupling action is opposite to the above process, that is, supply high-pressure oil to the square hydraulic cylinder 2 in the reverse direction.
[0032] The objectives of the present utility model are as follows: 1. To achieve universality. It couples with the axle body. Because at present, the axle bodies of freight car bogies and freight car wheel sets are all E axles, and the larger F axles have not reached the major overhaul cycle yet, only one type needs to be made to achieve universality; 2. It can utilize the existing rail-road dual-purpose vehicle with simple modification. Remove the original coupler fixation, install this device, and connect the hydraulic rubber hoses to add the above-mentioned quick coupling function; 3. Since this quick coupling device is installed on the rail-road dual-purpose vehicle, there is no problem of transporting special drawbars; 4. It saves manpower. The operator of the original rail-road dual-purpose vehicle can complete the coupling and towing operation alone without additional workers; 5. When simply transporting the wheel set, since it was originally pushed manually, first, the labor intensity of the workers is high, and there are also safety hazards. With this quick coupling device, only one operator of the rail-road dual-purpose tractor is needed to complete the quick coupling of the freight car wheel set and transport it to the designated working position.
[0033] The above-disclosed are only the preferred embodiments of the present application. Of course, the scope of rights of the present application cannot be limited by this. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present application still fall within the scope covered by the present application.
