[0002] Steel rails are the main components of railway tracks. Their function is to guide the wheels of locomotives and rolling stock forward, bear the enormous pressure of the wheels, and transmit it to the sleepers. Steel rails must provide the wheels with a continuous, smooth, and least resistant rolling surface. In electrified railways or automatic block sections, steel rails can also serve as track circuits.

[0003] Currently, rails in railway turnouts, accessories, and other products are produced using automatic clamping and grinding of rail forging sections. The rail forging section involves rail bottom milling and clamping, flash grinding, and burr removal. The complete set of automatic clamping and grinding equipment for rail forging sections mainly consists of clamping and positioning components and corresponding accessories, grinding and chamfering components and corresponding accessories, electrical control box, hydraulic station, robot control cabinet, and grinding dust collection components.

[0004] In the past, grinding was done by using a robot to grind the surface of the rails. Now, belt sanders are used for grinding. However, with the use of belt sanders, friction generates heat during the grinding process, which raises the temperature of the sanding belt. This causes the overall structure of the sanding belt to loosen, making it shake or deviate during high-speed movement. This results in uneven surface roughness of the workpiece and even problems with uneven grinding marks.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an automatic rail section clamping system to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

The two sliding grooves are both opened inside the mounting frame, and the two sliding blocks are slidably connected inside the two sliding grooves respectively. The two sides of the sealing plate are respectively fixedly connected to one side of the two sliding blocks.

[0032] The sealing device 4 includes two sliding grooves 41, two sliding blocks 42, and a sealing plate 43. The two sliding grooves 41 are both opened inside the mounting frame 1. The two sliding blocks 42 are slidably connected to the inside of the two sliding grooves 41 respectively. The two sides of the sealing plate 43 are fixedly connected to one side of the two sliding blocks 42 respectively.

[0033] The grinding device 2 is a belt sander. The grinding device 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting frame 1, and the mounting frame 1 is fixedly installed on the output end of the robot.

[0034] One side of the sealing plate 43 is fixedly installed on one side of the adjusting block 32, so as to drive the sealing plate 43 to move to one side when the adjusting block 32 moves to one side.

It is used to monitor the tension of the adjusting wheel 35 through the pressure sensor. When the pressure decreases, the telescopic member 33 automatically extends and drives the adjusting block 32 to move to one side to adjust the position of the adjusting wheel 35.

[0037] The telescopic component 33 is an electric push rod, which is fixedly installed inside the adjustment groove 31.

[0038] The telescopic component 33 is a hydraulic rod or cylinder used to push the adjusting block 32 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the adjusting wheel 35, adjusting the tension of the sanding belt, and facilitating the replacement of the sanding belt later.

[0039] A limiting block 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjusting groove 31, and the limiting block 5 is used to limit the adjusting block 32.

[0040] The limiting block 5 is used to facilitate the movement of the adjusting groove 32 to one side to separate it from the adjusting groove 31.

[0041] The working principle of the automatic rail section clamping system provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0042] When in use, if the sanding belt of the sanding device 2 is found to be loose, the adjusting block 32 connected to the adjusting wheel 35 is pushed to one side by activating the telescopic component 33 to adjust the sanding belt to a suitable tension.

[0043] At the same time, when the adjusting block 32 moves to one side, it drives the sealing plate 43 to move to one side through the two sliding blocks 42 inside the two sliding grooves 41 respectively.
