Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of railway maintenance equipment technology, and in particular to an integrated device for measuring and marking the spacing between track sleepers. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of railway track construction and maintenance, accurately setting the spacing of sleepers is a crucial step in ensuring the stability and safety of the track structure. Traditional sleeper spacing measurement and marking methods typically rely on manual labor using simple tools like measuring tapes to measure each sleeper and mark the corresponding positions. However, this method has many drawbacks. Firstly, manual operation is inefficient, especially in long-distance track laying projects. The large amount of repetitive measurement work not only consumes a lot of time and energy but also easily leads to accumulated measurement errors due to fatigue, affecting the overall construction quality. Secondly, due to differences in the technical skills and operating habits of different construction personnel, it is difficult to guarantee the accuracy and consistency of each measurement and marking, which may adversely affect subsequent processes such as rail installation and fastener fixing, and even pose certain safety hazards. With the continuous development of the railway industry, higher demands are placed on the quality and efficiency of track construction. While some semi-automated equipment can achieve a certain degree of mechanized measurement, it lacks functional integration and often requires multiple devices to work together, increasing the complexity of the equipment and the difficulty of on-site management.

[0003] Currently, existing equipment uses a servo motor and PLC controller to control the start and stop of the electric wheel based on the pre-input spacing between the placement positions of two adjacent sleepers. The controller also controls the pump to spray pigment onto the corresponding positions on the rails or sleepers. Although this can complete the marking operation, there are some drawbacks: Since the measurement and marking operation requires long-distance work, although the existing equipment has a pigment tank in the middle of the overall device that is pre-filled with pigment, there is no corresponding pigment replenishment mechanism. This makes it impossible to effectively control the working length corresponding to the pigment, which may cause the measurement and marking operation to stop due to the lack of marking pigment. Furthermore, during long-distance work, if affected by outdoor high or low temperatures, the pigment may solidify in the tank, which is not conducive to actual operation.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an integrated device for measuring and marking the spacing between railway sleepers to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In response to the above situation and to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an integrated device for measuring and marking the spacing of railway sleepers. This addresses the issue that current equipment, while containing a pre-filled paint box in the center of the device, lacks a corresponding paint replenishment mechanism. This makes it difficult to effectively control the working length corresponding to the paint, potentially causing the measurement and marking operation to stop due to insufficient paint. Furthermore, during long-distance operation, if affected by high or low outdoor temperatures, the paint may solidify inside the box, hindering practical use.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A track sleeper spacing measurement and marking integrated device includes: a drive wheel set, a support frame, a storage box, a placement component, an operating component, and a limiting component;

[0008] The support frame is a rectangular structure with an open top. Drive wheels are installed on both sides of the bottom of the support frame. A storage box is placed inside the support frame. A placement component is installed at the front end of the support frame. The placement component consists of a placement box, a partition, and a storage bottle. The interior of the placement box is divided into multiple placement areas by the partition. Each placement area contains a storage bottle. The storage bottle is made of stainless steel and has a screw-in cap on its top.

[0009] In one embodiment, the storage bottle contains water or pigment powder, and the materials contained in multiple storage bottles are different.

[0010] In one embodiment, a support plate is installed on the inner bottom surface of the support frame, and a notch is opened in the middle section of the support plate. Sprayers are installed on both sides of the bottom surface of the storage box, and the sprayers are located below the notch. The sprayers spray pigment toward the junction of the rail and the sleeper.

[0011] In one embodiment, a top cover bolted to the top surface of the storage box is installed, and a feed inlet is installed in the middle of the top surface of the top cover. The feed inlet is generally funnel-shaped, and mounting holes are provided on both sides of the feed inlet on the top cover.

[0012] In one embodiment, the operating component comprises a rotating shaft, a gear, a stirring blade, a fixed frame, a rack plate, a positioning rod, a positioning tube, a positioning plate, and a handle. The rotating shaft is installed inside the mounting hole via a bearing sleeve. A gear is installed on the upper part of the rotating shaft, and a stirring blade is installed on the bottom of the rotating shaft. The stirring blade is located in the lower inner part of the storage tank. Positioning tubes are installed on both sides of the top surface of the top cover. A rack plate is installed at intervals on the end face of the fixed frame facing the gear. The rack plate is meshed with the gear. A positioning rod is installed on the outer side of the rack plate. The positioning rod is slidably connected to the positioning tube. A positioning plate is installed at the extended end of the positioning rod. A handle is installed in the middle of the other side of the fixed frame.

[0013] In one embodiment, the grip is fitted with an anti-slip rubber pad structure to protect the worker's hands from friction during use.

[0014] In one embodiment, limiters are installed at both outer ends of the drive wheel assembly. Each limiter consists of a mounting base, a connecting rod, and a limit wheel. The mounting base and the connecting rod are connected by an insertion type. The connecting rod has an L-shaped structure with a connecting hole on the top surface of its horizontal section. A limit wheel is installed at the bottom of the connecting rod, and the limit wheel slides against the side of the track.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] (1) By setting up the placement component, the present invention can pre-place storage bottles in the placement box, which can provide replenishment of marking materials during long-distance operation, thereby extending the single operation distance and improving work efficiency. Since the volume of the storage bottles is the same, after using up the carried storage bottles, the amount of pigment needed for each distance can be calculated based on the number of bottles used and the operation distance, which is convenient for pre-mixing and carrying during subsequent construction operations, and is more in line with actual operation. Through more refined material carrying operation, the pigment in the storage bottle is prevented from solidifying due to weather. The pigment can be mixed during the measurement and marking process, which is more in line with actual operation and improves the reliability of the overall device in outdoor use.

[0017] (2) During the downtime of marking the sleepers, the present invention allows the manual gripping of the handle and pushing it forward to move the rack plate synchronously and drive the gear to rotate. The gear drives the rotating shaft and the stirring blade to rotate, thus stirring the pigment in the storage box and preventing it from solidifying and sticking together. When the pigment in the storage box is insufficient, the manual addition of water and powder from the storage bottle to the storage box according to the specified ratio is carried out. The manual reciprocating push-pull operation allows the stirring blade to quickly mix the water and powder, rapidly supplying pigment and reducing the problem of limited working distance due to insufficient pigment. This improves the stability and reliability of the overall device. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention include, but are not limited to, the following embodiments.

[0025] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated device for measuring and marking the spacing of railway sleepers, comprising: a drive wheel assembly 1, a support frame 2, a storage box 3, a placement component 4, an operating component 5, and a limiting component 6;

[0026] like Figures 1-3As shown, the support frame 2 is a rectangular structure with an open top. Drive wheel sets 1 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the support frame 2. A storage box 3 is placed inside the support frame 2, and a placement component 4 is installed at the front end of the support frame 2. The placement component 4 consists of a placement box 41, a partition 42, and storage bottles 43. The interior of the placement box 41 is divided into multiple placement areas by the partition 42, and each placement area contains a storage bottle 43. The storage bottles 43 are made entirely of stainless steel, and each storage bottle 43 has a screw-in cap on its top. The placement component 4 allows storage bottles 43 to be pre-placed in the placement box 41, providing a supply of marker material during long-distance operations, thereby extending the single-operation distance and improving work efficiency. Since the storage bottles 43 have a uniform volume, after using up the carried storage bottles 43, the amount of pigment needed for each distance can be calculated based on the number of bottles used and the operating distance, facilitating pre-mixing and carrying during subsequent construction operations, which is more in line with actual operation.

[0027] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, the storage bottle 43 contains water or pigment powder. The materials contained in multiple storage bottles 43 are not the same. If there are at least ten storage bottles 43, then when installing pigment mixing, water for diluting the powder needs to be stored in seven storage bottles 43, and the remaining storage bottles 43 need to store the powder. Through more refined raw material handling, the pigment in the storage bottles 43 is prevented from solidifying due to weather conditions. Pigment mixing can be carried out during the measurement and marking process, which is more in line with actual operation and improves the reliability of the overall device for outdoor use.

[0028] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, a support plate 21 is installed on the inner bottom surface of the support frame 2. A notch is opened in the middle section of the support plate 21. Sprayers 31 are installed on both sides of the bottom surface of the storage box 3. The sprayers 31 are located below the notch and spray pigment towards the junction of the rail and the sleeper.

[0029] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, the top surface of the storage box 3 is fitted with a top cover 32 bolted to it. A feed inlet 33 is installed in the middle of the top surface of the top cover 32. The feed inlet 33 is generally funnel-shaped. The top cover 32 has mounting holes 34 on both sides of the feed inlet 33.

[0030] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figures 3-4As shown, the operating component 5 consists of a rotating shaft 51, a gear 52, a stirring blade 53, a fixing frame 54, a rack plate 55, a positioning rod 56, a positioning tube 57, a positioning plate 58, and a handle 59. The rotating shaft 51 is installed inside the mounting hole 34 through a bearing sleeve. The gear 52 is installed on the upper part of the rotating shaft 51, and the stirring blade 53 is installed on the bottom of the rotating shaft 51. The stirring blade 53 is located in the lower inner part of the storage tank 3. Positioning tubes 57 are installed on both sides of the top surface of the top cover 32. The rack plate 55 is installed at intervals on the end face of the fixing frame 54 facing the gear 52. The rack plate 55 is meshed with the gear 52. The positioning rod 56 is installed on the outer side of the rack plate 55. The positioning rod 56 is slidably connected to the positioning tube 57. The extension end of the positioning rod 56 is... The device is equipped with a positioning plate 58, and a handle 59 is installed in the middle of the other side of the fixing frame 54. During operation, by manually holding the handle 59 and pushing it forward during the stop time marked on the sleeper, the rack plate 55 is moved synchronously and drives the gear 52 to rotate. The gear 52 drives the rotating shaft 51 and the stirring blade 53 to rotate, stirring the pigment in the storage tank 3 to prevent it from hardening and sticking. When the pigment in the storage tank 3 is insufficient, the water and powder in the storage bottle 43 are manually added into the storage tank 3 according to the installation ratio. By manually reciprocating push and pull the operating component 5, the stirring blade 53 quickly mixes the water and powder, quickly supplying pigment and reducing the problem of limited working distance caused by insufficient pigment. This improves the stability and reliability of the overall device.

[0031] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figures 3-4 As shown, the grip 59 is equipped with an anti-slip rubber pad structure, which is intended to protect the worker's hands from friction during use.

[0032] Preferably, in one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 As shown, limiters 6 are installed at both outer ends of the drive wheel assembly 1. Each limiter 6 consists of a mounting base 61, a connecting rod 62, and a limiter wheel 63. The mounting base 61 and the connecting rod 62 are connected by an insertion method. The connecting rod 62 has an L-shaped structure, with a connecting hole on the top surface of its horizontal section. The limiter wheel 63 is installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 62 and slides against the side of the track. During operation, after the drive wheel assembly 1 is installed, the connecting rod 62 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 61 by bolts. At this time, the limiter wheel 63 abuts against the side section of the track, providing lateral limit operation for the entire device.

[0033] Working principle of this utility model:

[0034] During operation, the servo motor drives the drive wheel assembly 1 to move on the rails. Based on pre-delivered spacing instructions, the PLC controller starts and stops the entire device. In the stopped state, the controller controls the sprayer 31 to spray pigment. The placement box 4 contains storage bottles 43, which can be pre-placed within the placement box 41. During long-distance operations, this allows for replenishment of marker material, extending the single-operation distance and improving work efficiency. Since the storage bottles 43 have a uniform volume, after use, the amount of pigment needed for each distance can be calculated based on the number of bottles used and the operating distance, facilitating pre-mixing for subsequent construction work. Compared to carrying, this design is more practical for actual operation. During the stop time marked on the sleepers, the operator manually holds the handle 59 and pushes it forward, causing the rack plate 55 to move synchronously and drive the gear 52 to rotate. The gear 52 then drives the rotating shaft 51 and the stirring blade 53 to rotate, stirring the pigment in the storage tank 3 and preventing it from hardening and sticking together. When the pigment in the storage tank 3 is low, the operator manually adds the water and powder from the storage bottle 43 in the specified proportions into the storage tank 3. The operator then manually pushes and pulls the operating component 5 to make the stirring blade 53 quickly mix the water and powder, rapidly supplying pigment and reducing the problem of limited working distance due to insufficient pigment. This improves the overall stability and reliability of the device.

[0035] The above embodiments are merely one of the preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications or refinements made to the main design concept and spirit of this utility model that are not of substantial significance, but solve the same technical problem as this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
