Detailed Implementation

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0030] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0032] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this utility model is in use.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0033] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] Currently, there are two main adjustment methods in the field of rail installation and maintenance. The first method involves pre-bending or straightening the contact rail in the factory using rail bending equipment. This method can achieve high adjustment accuracy, but when the contact rail is large, the transportation, installation, and dismantling processes become quite difficult, leading to a significant increase in construction costs. Therefore, this method is usually only suitable for installation on newly built lines and cannot meet the needs of on-site maintenance and repair of existing lines during operation. The second method involves using integrally cast or welded straightening devices for on-site bending and adjustment. However, this type of device is bulky and inconvenient to carry, limiting its application flexibility in narrow or complex environments.

[0036] It is evident that existing contact rail adjustment methods all have limitations to varying degrees, and there is an urgent need for a more efficient, convenient, and adaptable technical solution to simultaneously meet the needs of new line installation and on-site maintenance of existing lines.

[0037] Based on the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a combined contact rail straightening device for electrified railways, which is applied to the field of contact rail straightening, especially suitable for the combined straightening device for bending and straightening of contact rails (steel-aluminum composite rails) used in subways or urban rail transit; in addition, it is also suitable for on-site top adjustment operations of various types of contact rails. Taking the contact rail placed with the bottom facing down as an example, it can be top adjusted and straightened vertically or perpendicular to the side of the rail web.

[0038] The combined contact rail straightening device for electrified railways provided by this utility model has significant advantages such as lightweight structure, strong versatility, and high straightening quality accuracy.

[0039] In addition, regarding the quality of straightening, after the movable mandrel is installed in conjunction with the main beam and safety pin, the sufficient contact range effectively solves the problem of torsional deformation caused by the top adjustment force imbalance of traditional integral casting straightening devices, avoids additional spiral deformation, and thus accurately controls the top adjustment state of the contact rail, ensuring that the straightening accuracy reaches a high level.

[0040] For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways includes a main beam 100, a top support 200, a fixing component 300, and a driving component 400.

[0041] The top support 200 is disposed on the main beam 100; the fixing member 300 is detachably disposed on the main beam 100 and located on both sides of the top support 200, and the fixing member 300 is used to be sleeved on the contact rail 11; the driving member 400 is disposed on the main beam 100, and the output end of the driving member 400 is used to drive the top support 200 to move.

[0042] First, it should be noted that the contact rail 11 is a contact rail for electrified railways, or it can be an I-shaped workpiece with the same shape, etc., without specific limitations.

[0043] In this embodiment, the fastener 300 is detachably connected to the main beam 100 so that the fastener 300 can be fixedly connected to the main beam 100 after being fitted onto it. This not only facilitates the fixing of the contact rail 11, but also allows for the adaptation to different types of contact rails 11. On this basis, the drive member 400 pushes the top member 200 to move, thereby supporting the contact rail 11 that is fixed to one side of the main beam 100 by the fastener 300, thus correcting the plastic deformation of the contact rail 11.

[0044] Therefore, the combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways provided by this utility model exhibits extremely high adaptability to different rail types. Adjustment can be completed simply by replacing the fixing component 300 and the supporting component 200 that match the contact rail type, making it widely applicable. Taking the rail bottom downwards as an example, it not only enables vertical adjustment of the contact rail but also supports lateral adjustment of the top rail web, offering diverse functions and economic practicality. Thus, the combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways demonstrates significant technical advantages in portability, versatility, and straightening quality, providing a more efficient and reliable solution for adjusting the contact rail 11.

[0045] It is understood that there are at least two fasteners 300, and the at least two fasteners 300 are respectively set on both sides of the top support 200, so that when the contact rail 11 is fixed by at least two fasteners 300, the driving member 400 can smoothly drive the top support 200 to act on the contact rail 11 and perform correction.

[0046] Furthermore, the fastener 300 includes a fastener 310, which includes a first arm 311 and a second arm 312 connected to both ends of the first arm 311. The first arm 311 is connected to the two second arms 312 in a C-shape. The opposing walls of the two second arms 312 are provided with recessed slots 313. The slots 313 are used to hold the top wall 140 or bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100 to restrict the contact rail 11 between the first arm 311, the second arm 312 and the side wall of the main beam 100.

[0047] In this embodiment, by engaging the slots 313 of the two second arms 312 with the top wall 140 and bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100 respectively, the contact rail 11 is fixed to one side of the main beam 100 by the fixing body 310.

[0048] It should be noted that the driving component 400 is located on the side of the main beam 100 away from the first arm 311 of the fixing body 310. Therefore, when the driving component 400 pushes the top holding component 200 to hold the contact rail 11, the first arm 311 plays a role in fixing and restricting the contact rail 11.

[0049] Optionally, the drive unit 400 may be, but is not limited to, a hydraulic jacking cylinder.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to further improve the stability of the fastener 300 when fixing the contact rail 11, the fastener 300 also includes a locking member 320. The second arm 312 is provided with a first through hole 314, and the top wall 140 and bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100 are provided with a second through hole 110. The locking member 320 passes through the first through hole 314 and the second through hole 110.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first through hole 314 penetrates the slot 313. Therefore, by sequentially passing the locking member 320 through the first through hole 314 of the second arm 312, the second through hole 110 of the top wall 140 of the main beam 100, the second through hole 110 of the bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100, and the first through hole 314 of the second arm 312, the fixing body 310 is restricted in the length direction of the main beam 100, so as to ensure that the fixing member 300 can fix the contact rail 11 more stably and firmly.

[0052] It is worth mentioning that both ends of the top wall 140 and bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100 are provided with multiple second through holes 110, and the multiple second through holes 110 are arranged sequentially along the length direction of the main beam 100.

[0053] In this embodiment, the fixing body 310 can be fixed at different positions of the second through hole 110 by the locking member 320 according to the length of the contact rail 11 or the correction requirements, thereby improving the adaptability of the combined contact rail correction device 10 for electrified railways.

[0054] Furthermore, in order to further improve the stability of the fixing member 300 when fixing the contact rail 11, the fixing member 300 also includes an anti-detachment member 330. One end of the locking member 320 is provided with an anti-detachment part 321, the size of which is larger than the size of the first through hole 314, and the other end is provided with an anti-detachment hole 322. The anti-detachment member 330 passes through the anti-detachment hole 322.

[0055] In this embodiment, since the locking member 320 is in a vertical position when installed, an anti-detachment part 321 is provided at the top of the locking member 320 to prevent the locking member 320 from passing through the first through hole 314 and the second through hole 110 and falling off in the downward direction; in addition, an anti-detachment member 330 is provided through the anti-detachment hole 322 at the bottom of the locking member 320 to prevent the locking member 320 from passing through the first through hole 314 and the second through hole 110 and falling off in the upward direction.

[0056] Optionally, the anti-loosening component 330 can be other anti-loosening structures such as a nut connection, and is not limited to a cotter pin.

[0057] Furthermore, a top holding surface 210 is provided on the side of the top holding member 200 away from the driving member 400. The top holding surface 210 is convex arc-shaped and is used to hold the contact rail 11.

[0058] In this embodiment, by setting the supporting surface 210 for supporting the contact rail 11 to a convex arc shape, it is easier for the supporting surface 210 to support the contact rail 11 in a bent shape.

[0059] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the driving member 400 pushes the top member 200 to move in the same direction, thereby ensuring the correction quality and effect, a guide rod 220 is provided on the side of the top member 200 near the driving member 400, and a guide hole 120 is provided on the main beam 100, through which the guide rod 220 passes.

[0060] Furthermore, the top support 200 has a driving part protruding from the side facing the driving member 400. The driving part is cylindrical and is used for the output end of the driving member 400 to extend into it.

[0061] In this embodiment, during the process of the driving member 400 pushing the top member 200, the output end of the driving member 400 is extended into the driving part of the top member 200 to further ensure the stability of the driving member 400.

[0062] Furthermore, the main beam 100 includes a top wall 140, a first side wall 150, a bottom wall 160, and a second side wall 170, with the first side wall 150 and the second side wall 170 disposed opposite to each other between the top wall 140 and the bottom wall 160.

[0063] A third through hole 130 is provided at the corresponding part of the first sidewall 150 and the second sidewall 170. The top support 200 is movably disposed at the third through hole 130. The driving member 400 is disposed on the second sidewall 170 and is used to drive the top support 200 to move along the first sidewall 150 away from the second sidewall 170.

[0064] It is understood that multiple fixing plates 180 are provided between the first sidewall 150 and the second sidewall 170, and guide holes 120 are provided on the fixing plates 180; second through holes 110 are provided at both ends of the top wall 140 and the bottom wall 160 in the length direction.

[0065] In detail, the top wall 140 and the bottom wall 160 have the same structure and are both T-shaped.

[0066] In this embodiment, the top wall 140 and bottom wall 160 of the main beam 100 adopt a T-shaped design. By combining and installing with the fastener 300, the contact rail 11 to be adjusted can be fitted and fixed and operated. Compared with the traditional integral casting straightening device, the combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways provided in this embodiment is smaller in size and lighter in weight, which greatly improves the portability and on-site operation efficiency.

[0067] In summary, this utility model provides a combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways. By detachably connecting the fixing member 300 to the main beam 100, the fixing member 300 can be fixedly connected to the main beam 100 after being fitted onto it. This not only facilitates the fixing of the contact rail 11 but also adapts to different types of contact rails 11. Furthermore, the driving member 400 pushes the supporting member 200 to move, thereby supporting the contact rail 11 fixed to one side of the main beam 100 by the fixing member 300, thus correcting the plastic deformation of the contact rail 11. Therefore, the combined contact rail straightening device 10 for electrified railways provided by this utility model has a simple structure and can achieve more efficient and reliable correction of the contact rail 11, while also ensuring correction quality through portability and versatility.
