Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of clamp maintenance, and in particular relates to a rail transit vehicle clamp brake unit maintenance auxiliary device. Background Art

[0002] Currently, rail transit vehicles with six carriages are typically equipped with 48 caliper brake units per train, that is, one caliper brake unit for each wheel. For example, in the case of a D-type EMU, if a caliper brake unit fails during maintenance, it must be replaced. However, due to limited space near the caliper brake unit, manual forklifts are not possible for replacement. The vehicle must be moved to a special track on-site, and a mobile lift trolley must be used. Multiple personnel must lift the brake unit to perform the operation, which poses a high risk to the personnel. This maintenance method requires a total of three hours of shunting (entry and exit) time per train for one driver, and five hours of caliper brake unit replacement time per train for five personnel. This long replacement time results in low replacement efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, a new technology is needed to solve the problems of high risk and low replacement efficiency in the existing caliper brake unit replacement operation. Utility Model Content

[0028] The rail transit vehicle caliper brake unit maintenance auxiliary device of this solution has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It can be used in situations where on-site operating space is limited. The base 1 is fixed to the track through the slot 13, and the top plate 2 is driven to rise and fall by controlling the lifting drive mechanism. When disassembling or installing the caliper brake unit, a support platform can be provided for the caliper brake unit and the caliper brake unit can be driven to rise or fall, avoiding the risk of manually lifting the brake unit for operation. The brake caliper unit can be effectively and safely disassembled or installed, reducing the time required for replacing the caliper brake unit and improving replacement efficiency.

[0029] Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism includes a first drive member and a second drive member. The bottoms of the first drive member and the second drive member are installed on the base 1 and are located on both sides of the card slot 13. The upper parts of the first drive member and the second drive member are both detachably fixedly connected to the top plate 2. The first drive member and the second drive member are used to synchronously drive the top plate 2 to lift and lower.

[0030] Specifically, the base 1 includes a first bottom plate 14 and a second bottom plate 15 located on the same horizontal plane. The first bottom plate 14 and the second bottom plate 15 are respectively located on either side of the slot 13. The first driving member is mounted on the first bottom plate 14, and the second driving member is mounted on the second bottom plate 15. The first driving member and the second driving member can be respectively mounted on the first bottom plate 14 and the second bottom plate 15 using bolts. The first bottom plate 14 and the second bottom plate 15 are each provided with a plurality of spaced mounting holes 17, each of which can be passed through by a bolt.

[0031] Specifically, the base 1 also includes a first connector 11 and a second connector 12 arranged at intervals. The first connector 11 is provided with a first through groove 116 with the notch facing downward, and the second connector 12 is provided with a second through groove 121 with the notch facing downward. The first through groove 116 and the second through groove 121 are interconnected to form the card slot 13; the first bottom plate 14 and the second bottom plate 15 are both located between the first connector 11 and the second connector 12, and both ends are fixedly connected to the first connector 11 and the second connector 12 respectively.

[0032] Specifically, the first connector 11 and the second connector 12 have the same structure. The first connector 11 includes a first plate 111, a second plate 112, a third plate 113, a fourth plate 114, and a fifth plate 115, which are connected in sequence in an X-shape. The lower end surface of the third plate 113 forms the bottom of the first through-slot 116, and the second plate 112 and the fourth plate 114 are respectively used to form two opposite side walls within the first through-slot 116. The two ends of the first bottom plate 14 are fixedly connected to the two first plates 111, and the two ends of the second bottom plate 15 are fixedly connected to the two fifth plates 115. The first plate 111, the second plate 112, the third plate 113, the fourth plate 114, and the fifth plate 115 can be connected in an integral manner. The connection structure between the two ends of the first bottom plate 14 and the two first plates 111 can be an integral connection structure, and the connection structure between the two ends of the second bottom plate 15 and the two fifth plates 115 can be an integral connection structure.

[0033] Specifically, a first rib 18 is provided between the first plate 111 and the second plate 112, which are connected to each other. The first rib 18 can maintain a perpendicular position between the first plate 111 and the second plate 112. A second rib 19 is provided between the fourth plate 114 and the fifth plate 115, which are connected to each other. The second rib 19 can maintain a perpendicular position between the fourth plate 114 and the fifth plate 115.

[0034] Specifically, the rail transit vehicle caliper brake unit maintenance auxiliary device of this embodiment also includes several fixings. Each second plate 112 and each fourth plate 114 is provided with a threaded hole 16 for each fixing to extend into. Each fixing is screwed into each threaded hole 16 and connected to the side of the rail. Each second plate 112 and each fourth plate 114 can be provided with two spaced-apart threaded holes 16 for fastening to the rail via bolts.

[0035] Specifically, the top plate 2 can be in the shape of a flat plate, or a notch 21 can be set on the top plate 2, and the notch 21 faces the third plate body 113, appropriately reducing the area of ​​the top plate 2 to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the clamp without interfering with the connection and fixation of the top plate 2 with the first driving member and the second driving member.

[0036] Specifically, the first driving member and the second driving member are both jacks, and the jacks can preferably be scissor jacks. The scissor jacks can be driven manually or electrically according to actual usage. A scissor jack is set on each side of the left and right sides of the rail. The lower end face of each jack is fixed to the base 1 with four screws. The upper end faces of the two jacks are kept flat and connected to the top plate 2 with screws. A through hole is drilled in the center of the upper end face of each scissor jack. The diameter of the through hole can preferably be φ8.5 to facilitate screw or bolt connection with the top plate 2. The lower end face is provided with a connection hole for bolt connection to the base 1. This ensures that the upper and lower ends of each jack maintain a stable connection structure with the top plate 2 and the base 1, thereby ensuring that the components above the jack rise and fall smoothly during operation.

[0037] Specifically, during installation, the top plate 2 and the base 1 are first connected and fixed by two scissor jacks, and the base 1 is fixed to the track. When removing the clamp, the top plate 2 is driven upward by controlling the two jacks, and the top plate 2 is lightly pressed against the clamp, and then the clamp is removed. When the top plate 2 firmly holds the clamp, the two jacks are driven downward to remove the clamp. The clamp installation process can be the opposite of the above-mentioned disassembly process. For example, when installing the clamp, the two jacks are driven to lower the top plate 2 to an appropriate position, and the clamp is placed above the top plate 2. The top plate 2 and the clamp are then driven upward by the two jacks to an appropriate position that is convenient for installing the clamp. The clamp can then be installed. After installation, the top plate 2 is driven downward by the two jacks to an appropriate position that is convenient for disassembly.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
