[0002] The contact rail is a device that transmits electrical energy to the electric traction vehicles of subway and urban rail transit systems. The contact rail system mainly consists of steel-aluminum composite rails (including the aluminum rail body and stainless steel strip), expansion joints, end elbows, and other related components and insulation support devices, providing electrical energy to electric locomotives. Electricity transmission is achieved through the contact between the current collector shoes of the electric train and the composite rail.

[0003] When installing contact rails, several sets of contact rails are usually stacked in a designated area. During installation, workers need to lift and move individual contact rails from the designated area to the installation area. Contact rails have a certain weight, and lifting them by workers is labor-intensive. After installing one set of contact rails, workers need to return to the designated area to lift and move another set, which consumes unnecessary time and results in low work efficiency. These problems should be addressed specifically.

[0004] Therefore, an auxiliary device for contact rail installation is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a contact rail installation auxiliary device includes a vehicle body 1, a control box 2, and a battery 3. The control box 2 and the battery 3 are fixedly mounted on the top of the vehicle body 1. A handrail 4 is fixedly mounted on the top of the vehicle body 1. A guide plate 5 is fixedly mounted on one side of the vehicle body 1. Pushing mechanisms 6 for pushing contact rails onto the guide plate 5 are provided on both sides and the top of the vehicle body 1. Auxiliary limiting mechanisms 7 for limiting several sets of contact rails are provided on one side and the top of the vehicle body 1. The guide plate 5 is used to guide the contact rails to a designated area. Specifically, the pushing mechanism 6 is controlled to start and stop by the control box 2, and the pushing mechanism 6 is powered by the battery 3. Several sets of contact rails are stored on the top of the vehicle body 1, and the several sets of contact rails are located between the pushing mechanism 6 and the auxiliary limiting mechanism 7. During operation, the auxiliary limiting mechanism 7 can limit the contact rails, allowing several sets of contact rails to be arranged longitudinally. The user pushes the handrail 4 to move the device horizontally. After the device is moved to the designated area, the pushing mechanism 6 can transport the individual contact rails on the top of the vehicle body 1 to the guide plate 5. The guide plate 5 guides the individual contact rails on its surface to the designated area. Under the action of the guide plate 5, the contact rails are prevented from falling directly to the ground and colliding. The device can store several sets of contact rails, move several sets of contact rails, and push individual contact rails to the designated area. There is no need for workers to carry them, thus reducing labor intensity. Moreover, several sets of contact rails can move together, so the user does not need to constantly retrieve materials from the area where the contact rails are stacked, thus improving work efficiency.

[0025] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the pushing mechanism 6 includes a guide rail 601. The guide rail 601 is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the vehicle body 1. A motor 602 is fixedly mounted on the top of the guide rail 601. A threaded rod 603 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the guide rail 601, and the top end of the threaded rod 603 penetrates the surface of the guide rail 601 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 602. A movable block 604 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 603, and the movable block 604 is slidably installed with the inner wall of the guide rail 601. A movable plate 605 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the movable block 604. A rotating shaft 606 is rotatably mounted on the other side wall of the vehicle body 1. A first gear 607 and a second gear 608 are fixedly sleeved on the surface of the rotating shaft 606. A first rack 609 is fixedly mounted on one side of the movable plate 605. The first gear 609 meshes with the first gear 607. A pusher plate 610 is slidably provided on the top of the vehicle body 1. A second rack 611 is fixedly provided on one side of the pusher plate 610, and the second rack 611 meshes with the second gear 608. Specifically, when the motor 602 starts, its output end drives the threaded rod 603 to rotate, thereby causing the movable block 604 to slide longitudinally, which in turn causes the moving plate 605 to move longitudinally. The first rack 609 moves accordingly, thereby causing the first gear 607 to rotate, which in turn causes the rotating shaft 606 and the second gear 608 to rotate simultaneously. The rotation of the second gear 608 causes the second rack 611 to move horizontally, thereby causing the pusher plate 610 to move horizontally. When the moving plate 605 moves upward, the pusher plate 610 can move horizontally and push the individual contact rails to the surface of the guide plate 5.

[0026] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the first rack 609 and the second rack 611 are staggered, and the first rack 609 and the second rack 611 are both spaced apart from one side wall of the vehicle body 1; specifically, the first rack 609 and the second rack 611 do not interfere with each other when they move, so that a single contact rail can be pushed horizontally.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the auxiliary limiting mechanism 7 includes a slide groove 701. The top of the vehicle body 1 has a slide groove 701. A lead screw 702 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the slide groove 701, and one end of the lead screw 702 passes through the surface of the vehicle body 1 and extends to the outside of the slide groove 701. A crank handle 703 is fixedly mounted on this end of the lead screw 702. A slider 704 is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 702, and the slider 704 is slidably installed with the inner wall of the slide groove 701. A limiting plate 705 is fixedly mounted on the top of the slider 704, and the surface of the limiting plate 705 has a... The slot 706 is adapted to the push plate 610. Specifically, when the push plate 610 moves horizontally, it can push the contact rail through the slot 706. Rotating the crank 703 causes the lead screw 702 to rotate, thereby causing the slider 704 to slide, which in turn causes the limiting plate 705 to move. The movement of the limiting plate 705 can adjust the distance between the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605. After the distance between the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 is adapted to the contact rail, several sets of contact rails are arranged longitudinally between the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605.

[0028] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the heights of the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 are equal, and the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 are parallel. Specifically, the distance between the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 is adjusted so that the distance between the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 is adapted to the width of the contact rail, and the limiting plate 705 and the moving plate 605 can limit several sets of contact rails.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the top of the guide plate 5 is inclined, and the top of the guide plate 5 is provided with a smooth layer; specifically, the contact rail is pushed onto the inclined surface of the guide plate 5, and the smooth layer facilitates the contact rail to slide into the designated area.

[0030] In summary: The pushing mechanism 6 is controlled to start and stop via the control box 2 and is powered by the battery 3. It stores several sets of contact rails on the top of the vehicle body 1, and these sets of contact rails are located between the pushing mechanism 6 and the auxiliary limiting mechanism 7. The auxiliary limiting mechanism 7 can limit the contact rails, allowing them to be arranged longitudinally. The user pushes the handrail 4 to move the device horizontally. After moving the device to the designated area, the pushing mechanism 6 can individually transport the contact rails on the top of the vehicle body 1 to the guide plate 5. The guide plate 5 guides the individual contact rails on its surface to the designated area, preventing them from falling directly to the ground. This device can store several sets of contact rails, move them, and push individual contact rails to the designated area without requiring manual handling, thus reducing labor intensity. Furthermore, the ability for several sets of contact rails to move together eliminates the need for the user to constantly retrieve materials from the area where the contact rails are stored, thereby improving work efficiency.
