[0031] When the tie plate for railway turnout of this embodiment is in use, first place the rubber tie plate 2 on the top surface of the switch sleeper, then place the cast iron tie plate 1 on the rubber tie plate 2, and make the grooves 101 at the bottom of the cast iron tie plate 1 and the first bosses 201 on the rubber tie plate 2 be embedded with each other. Sleeve the adjusting sleeve 3 on the switch tie bolt 6 and screw the switch tie bolt 6 to the threaded hole on the switch sleeper, so as to ensure the relative position of the cast iron tie plate 1 and the rubber tie plate 2 is fixed during operation, and make the cast iron tie plate 1 and the rubber tie plate 2 form an integral body. The cast iron tie plate 1 and the rubber tie plate 2 are of a split structure and are closely matched, which can save the transportation and processing in the vulcanization workshop, can save the transportation cost and production cost, and shorten the production cycle; when the rubber tie plate 2 is aged, damaged or the like and affects the use performance, only the rubber tie plate 2 can be replaced without replacing the whole tie plate for railway turnout, which can greatly reduce the maintenance cost; when it is necessary to integrally raise the cast iron tie plate 1 and the rubber tie plate 2, by selecting adjusting sleeves 3 of different specifications, the height difference between the clamping surface (the bottom surface of the bolt head) of the switch tie bolt 6 and the top surface of the switch sleeper is kept unchanged, so as to keep the height of the lateral stress point of the switch tie bolt 6 unchanged, which can effectively improve the stress condition of the switch tie bolt 6 and extend the service life of the switch tie bolt 6. Optionally, both the first grooves 101 and the first bosses 201 are rectangular, with simple structure and convenient processing. Optionally, the sharp corners of the first grooves 101 and the first bosses 201 close to the center of the tie plate for railway turnout are rounded. On the one hand, it can avoid cracking at the sharp corners of the first grooves 101 close to the center of the tie plate for railway turnout; on the other hand, it can reduce the alignment difficulty and avoid the sharp corners of the first bosses 201 being squeezed and damaged during assembly.
[0032] As Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a second groove 104 is formed in the middle of the bottom surface of the cast iron tie plate 1, and a second boss 203 adapted to the second groove 104 is arranged on the top surface of the rubber tie plate 2. On the one hand, it can avoid the relative movement between the cast iron tie plate 1 and the rubber tie plate 2 first; on the other hand, it can adjust the static stiffness of the rubber tie plate 2 and avoid the deformation of the rubber tie plate 2.
[0033] As Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the second groove 104 is circular and crescent-shaped, which is convenient for processing. In this embodiment, two rows of second grooves 104 are arranged. Each row includes one circular second groove 104 and four crescent-shaped second grooves 104. The crescent-shaped second grooves 104 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the circular second groove 104, and the openings of the crescent-shaped second grooves 104 face the circular second groove 104. It can be understood that the numbers of the circular second grooves 104 and the crescent-shaped second grooves 104 are set according to the length and performance requirements of the backing plate. Optionally, the sharp corners of the crescent-shaped second grooves 104 are all rounded. On the one hand, it can reduce the processing difficulty and avoid cracking at the sharp corners of the crescent-shaped second grooves 104. On the other hand, it can reduce the alignment and matching difficulty and avoid damage to the sharp corners of the second boss 203 during assembly.
[0034] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, the tie plate for railway switch further includes a height-adjusting plate 4 disposed between the tie sleeper and the rubber tie plate 2, and an adjusting sleeve 3 that is used in combination with the height-adjusting plate 4 to keep the height difference between the clamping surface of the tie bolt 6 and the top surface of the tie sleeper unchanged. When adding a height-adjusting plate 4 with a thickness of a millimeters, the thickness of the selected adjusting sleeve 3 is correspondingly reduced by a millimeters. By combining different specifications of height-adjusting plates 4 and adjusting sleeves 3, the height of the lateral force application point of the tie bolt 6 remains unchanged, and different usage requirements can be met.
[0035] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in this embodiment, a third groove 103 is formed on the top surface of the base plate 1, and the first bolt hole 102 is formed in the third groove 103.
