La suite de la description correspond à ces différents croquis.The following description corresponds to these different sketches.
L'invention est représentée à titre non limitatif sur ces différents croquis
La présente invention a pour objectif la réalisation d'une remorque-wagon-conteneur ne nécessitant pas la manipulation d'aucune pièce pour le passage du mode de roulement ferroviaire au mode de roulement routier.The invention is shown without limitation in these various sketches The present invention aims to achieve a trailer-wagon-container not requiring the manipulation of any part for the transition from rail mode to road mode.
En outre, l'invention ne nécessite pas également l'usage d'un engin de transbordement de type grue pour le passage entre ces deux modes, les éléments la composant la rendant autonome.In addition, the invention does not also require the use of a crane type transshipment device for the passage between these two modes, the components making it autonomous.
L'invention se base sur un châssis ferroviaire (1) composé de deux longerons de différentes hauteurs sur l'ensemble de leur longueur reliés par des traverses verticales et horizontales de raidissement, (voir figure 7) Sur ce châssis sont fixés à l'aide d'éléments de suspension spécifique des essieux ferrés (2) au nombre de 2 ou 4 selon que l'invention a une dimension d'environ 20 ou 40 pieds: ce nombre d'essieux doit permettre le transport d'une charge maximale ne dépassant pas 17 tonnes par essieu.The invention is based on a rail chassis (1) composed of two beams of different heights over their entire length connected by vertical and horizontal stiffening crosspieces, (see Figure 7) On this chassis are fixed using specific suspension elements for rail axles (2) 2 or 4 depending on whether the invention has a dimension of approximately 20 or 40 feet: this number of axles must allow the transport of a maximum load not exceeding not 17 tonnes per axle.
A chaque extrémité de l'invention sont posés sur une traverse verticale perpendiculaire aux longerons des tampons mobiles (3) sur vérins devant assurer la sécurité de l'attelage lorsque celui-ci est de type à mise en place manuel et coulissant (6) et de ce fait également mobile: dans le cas d'un attelage automatique, ces tampons ne sont pas absolument nécessaire.At each end of the invention are placed on a vertical cross member perpendicular to the longitudinal members of the movable buffers (3) on jacks which must ensure the safety of the coupling when the latter is of the manual and sliding type (6) and therefore also mobile: in the case of an automatic coupling, these buffers are not absolutely necessary.
Au droit des châssis routiers seront réalisées des rainures de guidage verticales (4) qui permettent de faire coulisser verticalement les barres de maintien (8) du châssis routier en nombre de 2 ou 3 selon les nécessités découlant des calculs de résistance, (voir également figures 8A, 8B et 8C)To the right of the road chassis, vertical guide grooves (4) will be made which allow the holding bars (8) of the road chassis to slide vertically in numbers of 2 or 3 according to the needs arising from the strength calculations, (see also figures 8A, 8B and 8C)
Selon la technique retenu il y aura également des rainures de guidage horizontales (5) pour permettre le coulissement des barres et tenons de sou- tien (10) des barres de maintien des châssis routiers: ces rainures peuvent également être remplacée par des cornières attachées aux longerons.According to the technique adopted, there will also be horizontal guide grooves (5) to allow the sliding of the bars and support pins (10) of the road chassis holding bars: these grooves can also be replaced by angles attached to the stringers.
Le châssis routier mobile (7) se compose de 4 longerons verticaux en- serant respectivement par paires les longerons principaux du châssis ferroviaire soudé sur un longeron horizontal bas et contreventé par les barres de maintien (8) filetées et fixées par boulonnage à travers les rainures verticales (4): leur mobilité verticale est assurée par un ou deux vérins (9) fixé au longeron bas de ce châssis routier et à une traverse haute horizontale du châssis ferroviaire.The mobile road chassis (7) is made up of 4 vertical beams respectively inserting in pairs the main beams of the railway chassis welded on a low horizontal beam and braced by the support bars (8) threaded and fixed by bolting through the grooves vertical (4): their vertical mobility is ensured by one or two cylinders (9) fixed to the bottom spar of this road chassis and to a high horizontal cross member of the railway chassis.
Ce sont les vérins (9) qui permettent de passer du mode ferroviaire au mode routier en soulevant au-dessus ou en déposant l'ensemble de l'invention au niveau des rails ferroviaires, les châssis routiers pouvant se déplacer verticalement sur une distance d'environ 40 à 50 centimètres: les trois niveaux principaux du déplacement sont montré dans les figures 8A, 8B et 8C.
L'invention selon ces deux modèles principaux est représentée en position ferrée dans les figures 1 et 3 et en position routière dans les figures 2 et 4, ces figures permettant également de voir les différentes positions des accessoires selon ces positions. Dans les deux positions les châssis routiers sont retenus en plus de l'action des vérins par des barres de soutien (10) qui coulissent en arrière pour permettre le déplacement vertical de ces châssis routiers à l'aide de petits vérins (11 ).(voir figures 7, 8A, 8B et 8C).These are the jacks (9) which make it possible to pass from the rail mode to the road mode by lifting above or by depositing the whole of the invention at the level of the railway rails, the road chassis being able to move vertically over a distance of about 40 to 50 centimeters: the three main levels of displacement are shown in Figures 8A, 8B and 8C. The invention according to these two main models is shown in the rail position in FIGS. 1 and 3 and in the road position in FIGS. 2 and 4, these figures also making it possible to see the different positions of the accessories according to these positions. In both positions, the road chassis are retained in addition to the action of the cylinders by support bars (10) which slide back to allow the vertical movement of these road chassis using small cylinders (11). see Figures 7, 8A, 8B and 8C).
Pour permettre l'utilisation routière le modèle à 20 pieds nécessite un attelage routier rétractable (13) (figures 1 et 2) lui permettant de fonctionner comme une remorque derrière un camion tracteur.To allow road use, the 20-foot model requires a retractable road hitch (13) (Figures 1 and 2) allowing it to function as a trailer behind a tractor truck.
Le modèle à 40 pieds pourra être utilisé comme une semi-remorque grâce au tenon d'attache (12) et au relèvement des volets aérodynamiques (16) sur l'extrémité correspondante (figures 3, 4 et 7). L'invention a également été prévue pour une utilisation sur les porte- conteneurs fluviaux et maritimes, il est prévu dans ce cas de rajouter en toiture deux rails avec mortaise au forme des roues ferrées (14) ainsi que des pieds amovibles de jonction (15) (voir figures 5 et 6).The 40-foot model can be used as a semi-trailer thanks to the attachment lug (12) and the raising of the aerodynamic flaps (16) on the corresponding end (Figures 3, 4 and 7). The invention has also been intended for use on river and maritime container ships, it is planned in this case to add two rails with mortise on the roof in the shape of the rail wheels (14) as well as removable junction feet (15 ) (see Figures 5 and 6).
Ces derniers pieds peuvent être de deux dimensions selon que la jonc- tion se fait avec une remorque identique à l'invention ou avec un conteneur classique.These last legs can be of two dimensions depending on whether the connection is made with a trailer identical to the invention or with a conventional container.
Dans ce dernier cas, il est également prévu la possibilité de fixer sur les roues ferrées des rails séparés identiques au modèle 14 à l'aide de tirants retenus à des crochets fixés sur le châssis ou le plateau ferroviaire. Les figures 5 et 6 montrent respectivement les modèles de 20 et 40 pieds dans une position de superposition dans un porte-conteneur de type fluvial ou maritime.
In the latter case, provision is also made for fixing separate rails identical to the model 14 on the rail wheels using tie rods retained on hooks fixed to the chassis or the railway platform. Figures 5 and 6 show the 20 and 40 foot models respectively in a stacking position in a container ship of the river or maritime type.
