Definitions

  • the present invention relates, in general, to a spike pulling machine for pulling rail spikes from ties of a railroad track.
  • European published patent application No. 1 041 202 A1 describes a machine of the generic type.
  • the machine has pincer-like gripping elements for engaging a head of a rail spike.
  • these gripping elements are pulled upwards into a cylinder-shaped tube, which causes the gripping elements to be moved towards one another automatically for the purpose of gripping a spike head.
  • this has the disadvantage that deformed spike heads, or spikes of different design, can not be gripped properly or can only be gripped with difficulty.
  • a spike pulling machine for pulling rail spikes from ties of a railroad track extending in a track plane, the rail spikes having spike heads.
  • the novel machine comprises a clamping device including gripping elements configured for application to a spike head; a clamping drive provided for moving the gripping elements relative to one another; and a vertical adjustment drive provided for adjusting the clamping device in a vertical direction.
  • the machine further comprises a supporting leg intended for placement upon a tie of the track.
  • the clamping device, together with the clamping drive, is mounted for vertical adjustment on said supporting leg.
  • the machine further comprises flanged rollers, provided for support on the track and spaced from one another in a longitudinal direction, and operating handles for controlling the machine.
  • the clamping device and the supporting leg are arranged one following the other with respect to the longitudinal direction, and the supporting leg is distanced from the operating handles farther than the clamping device.
  • the machine further comprises a machine frame, mobile on the track by means of said flanged rollers, and a tool carrier supported on said machine frame for pivoting about an axis extending perpendicularly to the track plane, the clamping device and the supporting leg being mounted on said tool carrier.
  • the tool carrier is fixable in its pivoted position relative to the machine frame by means of a blocking device.
  • the supporting leg has a lower end configured as a supporting plate which is mounted for displacement relative to the supporting leg in a direction of longitudinal extension of the supporting leg and designed to be connected to the supporting leg in different displacement positions, as desired.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of a spike pulling machine
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial side view of a clamping device according to the invention configured for engaging a spike head.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a side view of a spike pulling machine 1 including a machine frame 4 .
  • the latter is mounted on a chassis frame 11 having flanged rollers 2 , provided for mobility of the machine 1 on a track 3 extending in a track plane 14 .
  • the flanged rollers 3 are spaced from one another in a longitudinal direction of the machine, as indicated by arrow 31 .
  • the machine frame 4 is supported on the chassis frame 11 by means of a carriage 10 which is articulatedly connected to the machine frame 4 for pivoting about an axis 9 extending transversely to the longitudinal direction.
  • the carriage 10 is mounted on the chassis frame 5 for displacement transversely to the longitudinal direction.
  • the machine frame 4 is further equipped with a motor 5 and a hydraulic installation 6 .
  • Operating handles 7 including control devices 8 are provided at an end of the machine frame 4 distanced from the motor 5 .
  • a tool carrier 12 which is fastened to the machine frame 4 for pivoting about an axis 13 .
  • the latter extends perpendicularly to the track plane 14 .
  • a blocking device 19 is provided for arresting the pivoting movement of the tool carrier 12 about the axis 13 .
  • a supporting leg 15 extending perpendicularly to the track plane 14 is fastened to the tool carrier 12 .
  • the supporting leg 15 has a lower end 16 connected to a supporting plate 18 which is provided for being placed upon a tie 17 of the track 3 .
  • the supporting plate 18 is mounted for displacement relative to the supporting leg 15 in a direction of elongation 21 of the supporting leg 15 , extending perpendicularly to the track plane 14 , and may be connected to the supporting leg 15 by means of bolts 20 , as desired.
  • a gripper carrier 28 is mounted on the supporting leg 15 for vertical displacement in the direction of elongation 21 in a guide 24 and is connected to a clamping device 22 .
  • a vertical adjustment drive 23 connected to the tool carrier 12 is provided for vertical adjustment of the gripper carrier 28 with the clamping device 22 .
  • the latter comprises two pincer-like gripping elements 25 pivotable about a gripper axis 27 by means of a clamping drive 26 which is connected to the gripper carrier 28 .
  • the clamping device 22 and the supporting leg 15 are arranged one behind the other with regard to the longitudinal direction (arrow 31 ).
  • the machine 1 is positioned, with the aid of the operating handles 7 , in such a way that the clamping device 22 —with opened gripping elements 25 —comes to lie above a spike head 29 of a rail spike 30 .
  • the clamping drive 26 With actuation of the clamping drive 26 , the two gripping elements 25 are moved towards one another with a clamping force which is selectively adjustable, thus causing the spike head 29 to be engaged in a form-fitting manner (see FIG. 2 ).
  • the vertical adjustment drive 23 As a result of the subsequent actuation of the vertical adjustment drive 23 , the supporting plate 18 is pressed onto the tie 17 and the gripper carrier 28 , together with the clamping device 22 and the clamping drive 26 , is raised, causing the rail spike 30 to be pulled out of the tie 17 .
  • the clamping device 22 can be adjusted in an optimal way to match the particular position of the rail spike 30 by temporarily loosening the blocking device 19 and swivelling the tool carrier 12 .
  • the gripping elements 25 can be centered above the rail spike 30 to be pulled. The subsequent pulling operation is initiated with lowering the gripper carrier 28 .
  • the gripper carrier 28 fixedly on the supporting leg 15 and to adjust the supporting leg 18 relative to the supporting leg 15 in the direction of elongation 21 by means of a drive, for example, in order to thereby pull a rail spike 30 from a tie 17 .
