Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rail grinding machines, and more specifically, to a grinding wheel oscillation mechanism and a rail grinding trolley. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous expansion and upgrading of urban rail transit and high-speed railway networks, rails, as a key component of the railway transportation system, directly affect the operational safety and passenger comfort of trains. During long-term use, rails develop defects such as wear, cracks, and corrugation due to the pressure and friction of train wheelsets and environmental factors. These problems necessitate rail welding. After online welding and repair, the weld seams of railway rails need to be ground to ensure a smooth surface.

[0003] When grinding rails, it is usually necessary to adjust the angle of the grinding wheel to grind different areas of the rail surface. Currently, the angle adjustment mechanism of the rail grinding trolley typically involves multiple components, making the overall structure quite complex. This complex structure is prone to malfunctions during adjustment, increasing the difficulty of maintenance and repair, thus affecting the equipment's operating efficiency and reliability. Furthermore, in actual operation, operators may find adjusting the angle inconvenient, especially in the complex environment of a construction site, where the time and effort required for adjustment can impact overall work efficiency. Additionally, the stability of the angle adjustment structure may be insufficient, particularly in high-intensity working environments.

[0064] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0065] like Figure 1 The grinding wheel oscillation mechanism includes a fixed frame 100, a grinding mechanism 400, an angle adjustment mechanism 200, and an angle locking mechanism 300. Specifically: the fixed frame 100 connects the various components; the grinding mechanism 400 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 100 and is used for grinding the steel rail; the angle adjustment mechanism 200 is used to adjust the angle of the grinding mechanism 400 and is connected to the fixed frame 100; the angle locking mechanism 300 is used to lock the angle of the grinding mechanism 400 and is connected to the fixed frame 100.

[0066] Specifically, such as Figure 3As shown, the angle locking mechanism 300 includes a first electromagnetic brake pad 301 and a second electromagnetic brake pad 302. The first electromagnetic brake pad 301 is connected to the fixing frame 100; the second electromagnetic brake pad 302 is sleeved inside or outside the first electromagnetic brake pad 301 and rotatably connected to the first electromagnetic brake pad 301; the second electromagnetic brake pad 302 is connected to the grinding mechanism 400. When energized, the second electromagnetic brake pad 302 and the first electromagnetic brake pad 301 attract each other; when de-energized, the second electromagnetic brake pad 302 and the first electromagnetic brake pad 301 separate. In this embodiment, the first electromagnetic brake pad 301 is annular, with one end fixedly connected to the fixing frame 100. The second electromagnetic brake pad 302 is also annular, sleeved inside the first electromagnetic brake pad 301, and one end of the second electromagnetic brake pad 302 is fixedly connected to the grinding mechanism 400. When the angle of the grinding mechanism 400 is adjusted, the second electromagnetic brake 302 rotates within the first electromagnetic brake 301 following the rotation of the grinding mechanism 400. When the angle of the grinding mechanism 400 is adjusted to the required position, the first electromagnetic brake 301 is energized, generating an attraction force on the second electromagnetic brake 302 to prevent the second electromagnetic brake 302 from rotating, thereby locking the angle of the grinding mechanism 400.

[0067] As a further technical solution of this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the angle adjustment mechanism 200 includes a swing block 201, a worm gear 202, a worm 203, and a drive motor 204. Specifically: the swing block 201 is connected to the grinding mechanism 400; one end of the central shaft of the worm gear 202 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 100, and the other end is drive-connected to the swing block 201; the worm 203 is meshed with the worm gear 202; and the drive end of the drive motor 204 is drive-connected to the worm 203. When angle adjustment of the grinding mechanism 400 is required, the drive motor 204 operates, driving the worm 203 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear 202 to rotate. The central shaft of the worm gear 202 drives the swing block 201 to rotate, thereby causing the swing block 201 to rotate and the grinding mechanism 400 to adjust the angle.

[0068] As a further technical solution of this embodiment, the grinding mechanism 400 includes a connecting plate 401, a grinding motor 402, and a grinding wheel 403. Specifically: the connecting plate 401 is connected to the angle adjustment mechanism 200 and the angle locking mechanism 300; in this embodiment, the connecting plate 401 is connected to the swing block 201 and the second electromagnetic brake plate 302; the grinding motor 402 is connected to the connecting plate 401; and the grinding wheel 403 is drive-connected to the drive end of the grinding motor 402.

[0069] In addition, this utility model also provides a rail grinding trolley including the above-mentioned grinding wheel oscillation mechanism, such as Figure 4-5The rail grinding trolley shown also includes: a frame 500, a lateral movement mechanism 600, a longitudinal movement mechanism 700, and wheels 800. Specifically: the frame 500 connects all components; the fixed frame 100 moves laterally and longitudinally relative to the frame 500; the lateral movement mechanism 600 is connected to the frame 500 and drives the grinding wheel oscillation mechanism to move laterally; the longitudinal movement mechanism 700 is connected to the fixed frame 100 and drives the fixed frame 100 to move longitudinally; and the wheels 800 are connected to the frame 500 and located below the frame 500.

[0070] As a further technical solution of this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the lateral movement mechanism 600 includes: a connecting frame 604, a lateral movement slider 601, a lateral movement screw 602, and a lateral movement servo motor 603. Specifically: the connecting frame 604 is laterally slidably connected to the vehicle frame 500; the lateral movement slider 601 is connected to the connecting frame 604; the lateral movement screw 602 is threadedly connected to the lateral movement slider 601; the lateral movement servo motor 603 is connected to the vehicle frame 500, and its drive end is drively connected to the lateral movement screw 602. When the lateral movement servo motor 603 is working, it drives the lateral movement screw 602 to rotate, causing the lateral movement slider 601 to move on the lateral movement screw 602, thereby causing the connecting frame 604 to move laterally.

[0071] The longitudinal movement mechanism 700 includes: a longitudinal movement slide rail 704, a longitudinal movement slider 701, a longitudinal movement screw 702, and a longitudinal movement servo motor 703. Specifically: the longitudinal movement slide rail 704 is connected to the connecting frame 604; the longitudinal movement slider 701 is connected to the fixed frame 100 and slidably connected to the longitudinal movement slide rail 704; the longitudinal movement screw 702 is threadedly connected to the longitudinal movement slider 701; and the longitudinal movement servo motor 703 is connected to the longitudinal movement slide rail 704, with its drive end connected to the longitudinal movement screw 702. Because the longitudinal movement mechanism 700 is connected to both the connecting frame 604 and the fixed frame 100, when the connecting frame 604 moves laterally, the connection relationship of the longitudinal movement mechanism 700 causes the fixed frame 100 to move laterally, i.e., the grinding wheel oscillation mechanism moves laterally. When the grinding wheel oscillation mechanism needs to move longitudinally, the longitudinal servo motor 703 works, driving the longitudinal screw 702 to rotate, thereby causing the longitudinal slider 701 to move. The movement of the longitudinal slider 701 causes the fixed frame 100 to move longitudinally, that is, the grinding wheel oscillation mechanism moves longitudinally.

[0072] As a further technical solution of this embodiment, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the rail grinding trolley also includes: a hood 900, connected to the frame 500, covering the exterior of each component to protect the internal components and ensure the safety of the workers; a lighting device 910 to provide illumination for the rail grinding trolley; and an electrical control box 920, connected to each electrical component for controlling it. The rail grinding trolley is powered by a lithium battery.

[0073] In addition, for the convenience of dust removal, a dust removal mechanism is provided on the vehicle frame. The dust removal mechanism's suction port is located at the grinding area of ​​the grinding mechanism and is generally covered on the outside of the suction port. The suction port is connected to the dust collection bucket through a pipe. The dust collection bucket is located on the vehicle frame. The dust removal mechanism can be a bag filter or a cartridge filter, etc.

[0074] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
