Durch die GB 2 172 326 A ist es bereits bekannt, insgesamt drei in vertikaler
Richtung angeordnete Endabschnitte von Saugrohren im Bereich der Saugöffnungen
mit rotierenden Werkzeugen zur Auflockerung von verkrustetem
Schotter auszustatten. Die Endabschnitte sind jeweils durch eigene Antriebe
einer Verschiebevorrichtung höhen- und querverstellbar ausgebildet. Um
eine kontinuierliche Vorwärtsbewegung der Saugmaschine zu ermöglichen,
sind die Endabschnitte der Saugrohre relativ zum Maschinenrahmen längsverschiebbar
angeordnet. Nach Zentrierung über einem Schwellenfach werden
die Endabschnitte mit den Saugöffnungen in den Schotter abgesenkt,
wobei infolge einer Verdrehung der Werkzeuge auch in den angrenzenden
Bereichen unterhalb der Schwellen befindlicher Schotter absaugbar ist.From
Eine andere, durch die DE 71 27 884 U bekannte Saugmaschine weist eine im Bereich der Saugöffnung am Endabschnitt des Saugrohres befestigte Vibrationseinrichtung auf, mit der die Zähne aufweisende Saugöffnung in Schwingungen versetzbar ist. In einer anderen Ausführungsform sind zur Auflockerung des Schotters walzenförmige Werkzeuge vorgesehen, die ebenfalls der Saugöffnung zugeordnet sind.Another suction machine known from DE 71 27 884 U has one Vibrating device attached to the end section of the suction pipe in the area of the suction opening with the suction opening in teeth Vibrations is displaceable. In another embodiment Loosening the ballast provided roller-shaped tools that are also assigned to the suction opening.
Weitere Saugmaschinen sind noch durch die DE 21 36 306 A, US 4 741 072, DE 41 08 673 A und DE 89 13 731 U bekannt. Further suction machines are also known from DE 21 36 306 A, US 4,741,072, DE 41 08 673 A and DE 89 13 731 U are known.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun in der Schaffung einer Saugmaschine der gattungsgemäßen Art, mit der die durch den Saugstrom bewirkte Aufnahme des Schotters, insbesondere auch in verkrustetem Zustand, verbessert ist.The object of the present invention is now to create a Suction machine of the generic type, with which by the suction flow effected absorption of the ballast, in particular also in the encrusted state, is improved.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit der eingangs genannten Saugmaschine dadurch gelöst, daß dem um seine Längsachse drehbar gelagerten Saugrohr-Endabschnitt ein Drehantrieb zugeordnet ist.This object is achieved with the suction machine mentioned at the beginning solved in that the rotatably mounted about its longitudinal axis Intake manifold end section is assigned a rotary drive.
Durch diese drehbare Ausbildung kann die Schotteraufnahme mit einem Minimum an konstruktivem Aufwand wesentlich verbessert werden. Dabei ist von besonderem Vorteil, daß infolge der Rotation der Saugöffnung und daraus resultierenden Relativbewegung zu den angrenzenden Schottersteinen diese in Bewegung versetzt werden. Diese mechanisch initiierte Anfangsbewegung wird anschließend mit Hilfe der Saugkraft beschleunigt fortgesetzt. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Drehung der Saugöffnung ist daher der Schotter rasch und mit größerer Leistung absaugbar.Due to this rotatable design, the ballast can be picked up with a minimum be significantly improved in terms of design effort. It is of particular advantage that due to the rotation of the suction opening and from it resulting relative movement to the adjacent gravel stones these are set in motion. This mechanically initiated initial movement is then accelerated with the help of suction. Due to the inventive rotation of the suction opening, the ballast is therefore can be extracted quickly and with greater performance.
Diese Absaugleistung läßt sich noch zusätzlich erhöhen, wenn gemäß einer weiteren Ausbildungsvariante der Erfindung im Bereich der Saugöffnung von dieser abstehende Mitnahmeorgane vorgesehen sind.This suction power can be increased even further if according to a Another embodiment of the invention in the area of the suction opening of these protruding entrainment organs are provided.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the Subclaims.
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand in der Zeichnung dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele näher beschrieben.In the following the invention with reference to exemplary embodiments shown in the drawing described in more detail.
Es zeigen:
Die in Fig. 1 ersichtliche Saugmaschine 1 weist einen auf Schienenfahrwerken
2 verfahrbaren Maschinenrahmen 4 mit einem Unterdruckerzeuger 3 sowie
eine endseitig angeordnete Fahrkabine 5 mit einer zentralen Steuereinrichtung
6 auf. Des weiteren ist die Saugmaschine 1 mit einem Motor für die
Energieversorgung und einem Fahrantrieb 7 ausgestattet. Zur Führung und
Abstützung eines über ein Maschinenende 8 vorkragenden Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 eines Saugrohres 10 ist eine am Maschinenrahmen 4 befestigte
Verschiebeeinrichtung 11 bzw. Tragkonstruktion vorgesehen. Diese
setzt sich aus zwei in Maschinenlängsrichtung hintereinander angeordneten
und unter Bildung einer Gelenkstelle mit einer vertikalen Schwenkachse 12
und einem Schwenkantrieb 13 gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Teilen
14,15 zusammen. Der Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 ist durch verschiedene Antriebe
13,21 entlang der XYZ-Raumkoordinaten verstellbar.The suction machine 1 shown in FIG. 1 has one on
An den mit dem Teil 15 verbundenen Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 schließt ein
flexibler Teil des Saugrohres 10 an, dessen einer Saugöffnung 16 gegenüberliegendes
Ende 17 senkrecht zur Maschinenlängsrichtung und horizontal
verschiebbar gelagert ist. Zur Speicherung des angesaugten Schotters
sind zwei in Maschinenquerrichtung einander gegenüberliegende Schotterspeicher
18 mit jeweils einer Entladeöffnung vorgesehen. Zwischen diesen
und dem Unterdruckerzeuger 3 befinden sich zwei Filterkammern mit verschließbaren
Entladeöffnungen. Unterhalb dieser Entladeöffnungen ist ein in
Maschinenlängsrichtung verlaufendes Förderband 19 vorgesehen, um den
angesaugten Schotter auf einen angekuppelten Verladewagen 20 zu transportieren. At the intake
Wie in Fig. 2 ersichtlich, ist der zum Eintauchen in den Schotter vorgesehene
Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 in seinem oberen, der Saugöffnung 16 entgegengesetzten
Endbereich durch ein Rotationslager 22 um eine Längsachse
23 drehbar am angrenzenden flexiblen Bereich des Saugrohres 10 gelagert.
Das mit dem Teil 15 der Verschiebeeinrichtung 11 verbundene Rotationslager
22 weist einen koaxial zum Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 angeordneten und
mit diesem verbundenen Zahnkranz 24 auf, der in formschlüssiger Verbindung
mit einem Antriebsritzel 25 eines hydraulischen Drehantriebes 26
steht.As can be seen in Fig. 2, is that intended for immersion in the ballast
Intake
Der zur Schotteraufnahme dienenden Saugöffnung 16 sind am zylinderförmigen
Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 befestigte und in radialer Richtung verlaufende
Mitnahmeorgane 27 zur Lockerung bzw. Bewegung der angrenzenden
und aufzusaugenden Schottersteine zugeordnet. Die Mitnahmeorgane 27
sind bezüglich ihrer Längsrichtung in einem Winkel zur Längsachse 23 angeordnet,
wobei die freien Enden 28 über eine durch die ringförmige Saugöffnung
16 gebildete sowie senkrecht zur Längsachse 23 verlaufende Saugebene
29 vorragend ausgebildet sind.The suction opening 16 which serves for receiving the ballast is cylindrical
Suction
Im Arbeitseinsatz wird der Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 bzw. die Saugöffnung
16 mit Hilfe der zentralen Steuereinrichtung 6 von der Fahrkabine 5 aus beispielsweise
über einem Schwellenfach positioniert und durch Beaufschlagung
der Antriebe 13,21 auf den Schotter abgesenkt. Parallel dazu erfolgt
unter Beaufschlagung des Drehantriebes 26 eine Rotation des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 um dessen Längsachse 23, wodurch die mit der Saugöffnung
16 bzw. dem ebenfalls rotierenden Mitnahmeorgan 27 in Berührung
kommenden Schottersteine mechanisch in eine Anfangsbewegung versetzt
werden. In weiterer Folge werden diese Schottersteine durch den Saugstrom
rascher angesaugt und einem der beiden Schotterspeicher 18 zugeführt.
Durch eine überlagerte Querbewegung des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 ist
das Schwellenfach zur Gänze durch Absaugen ausräumbar.In working use, the suction
Zur Optimierung verschiedener spezieller Arbeiten, beispielsweise der Absaugung
von Schotter unterhalb der Schwellen bzw. unterhalb von Linienleitern
kann es vorteilhaft sein, die Mitnahmeorgane 27 durch deren verlängerte
Ausbildung abzuändern. Dazu ist es zweckmäßig, den unteren, die Saugöffnung
16 und die Mitnahmeorgane 27 umfassenden Bereich des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 durch eine Schnellkupplung lösbar mit dem restlichen Teil
des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 zu verbinden. Damit besteht die vorteilhafte
Möglichkeit, in Anpassung an unterschiedliche Einsatzbedingungen bei
einem Minimum an Umrüstzeiten jeweils optimal wirksame Mitnahmeorgane
27 einzusetzen.To optimize various special jobs, such as suction
of gravel below the thresholds or below line conductors
it can be advantageous to extend the
Wie in Fig. 3 ersichtlich, können Mitnahmeorgane 30 durch eine entsprechende
Verformung von Abschnitten der Saugöffnung 16 gebildet werden. Diese
Mitnahmeorgane 30 sind durch über die Saugebene nach unten vorragende
Schaufeln 31 gebildet, deren in Drehrichtung (s. Pfeil) des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 vorderen Endbereiche 32 weiter von der Längsachse 23 distanziert
sind als die in Drehrichtung hinteren Bereiche 33. Durch diese eine turbinenschaufelartige
Ebene höherer Ordnung bildenden Mitnahmeorgane 30
wird Schotter zur Verbesserung der Saugleistung in radialer Richtung nach
innen zur Saugöffnung 16 bewegt.As can be seen in FIG. 3,
Bei der in Fig. 4 aufgezeigten Ausführungsvariante ist der Saugrohr-Endabschnitt
9 als drehbar am Saugrohr 10 gelagerter Ring 43 ausgebildet,
an dem die fingerförmigen Mitnahmeorgane 27 lösbar befestigt sind. Die Rotation
des Ringes 43 um die Längsachse 23 wird durch eine mit dem Drehantrieb
26 verbundene Antriebsstange 44 und einem Antriebsritzel 25 erzielt.In the embodiment variant shown in FIG. 4, the end of the intake manifold is
9 designed as a
Fig. 5 zeigt eine Seitenansicht eines Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9, wobei sich
der die Saugöffnung 16 bildende Bereich in einer durch strichpunktierte Linien
dargestellten Saugöffnungs-Ebene 34 befindet. Diese schließt mit der
Längsachse 23 des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 einen Winkel α ein. Dieser
beträgt vorzugsweise 45°, kann jedoch in Abhängigkeit von der gewünschten
Größe der Saugöffnung 16 zweckmäßigerweise zwischen etwa 30° und
50° variieren. Um die ellipsenförmige Saugöffnung 16 sind zahnförmig abstehende
Mitnahmeorgane 27 verteilt. Durch die Schräglage der Saugöffnung
16 ist insbesondere in Verbindung mit der Drehung des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 um die Längsachse 23 ein verbesserter Effekt zur Absaugung
des Schotters auch unterhalb der Schwellen erzielbar. Fig. 5 shows a side view of a suction
Die in Fig. 6 dargestellte weitere Variante eines Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
weist ebenfalls eine schrägliegende Saugöffnung 16 auf, die durch eine Abwinkelung
des unteren Endbereiches des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 zustande
kommt.The further variant of an intake manifold end section shown in FIG. 6
also has an
Die in Fig. 7 und 8 ersichtliche Variante zeigt einen Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9
mit einem koaxial zu diesem angeordneten, im Querschnitt kreisförmigen
Schubrohr 35, das durch einen schematisch angedeuteten Antrieb 36 mit Hilfe
von Führungen 37 relativ zum Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 höhenverstellbar
ausgebildet ist. Während der Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 eine schrägliegende
erste Saugöffnung 16 gemäß Fig. 5 aufweist, ist das untere Ende des Schubrohres
35 mit einer zweiten Saugöffnung 38 ausgestattet. Diese liegt in einer
senkrecht zur Längsachse 23 verlaufenden Saugöffnungs-Ebene 39. Mit dieser
Variante besteht die Möglichkeit, wahlweise unter entsprechender Verschiebung
des Schubrohres 35 entweder mit einer senkrecht zur Längsachse
23 verlaufenden Saugöffnung 38 (Fig. 7) oder mit einer schrägen Saugöffnung
16 (Fig. 8) abzusaugen. In beiden Stellungen erfolgt mit Hilfe eines
nicht näher dargestellten Drehantriebes eine kontinuierliche Rotation des
Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 um die Längsachse 23.The variant shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 shows an intake
Schließlich zeigen die Fig. 9 und 10 (Fig. 10 ist eine Ansicht des in Fig. 9
dargestellten Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9 gemäß Pfeil VI) noch eine weitere
Variante eines Saugrohr-Endabschnittes 9. Dieser weist eine aus zwei Bereichen
40,41 bestehende Saugöffnung 16 auf. Der erste Bereich 40 der Saugöffnung
16 umfaßt den in der Saugöffnungs-Ebene 34 befindlichen, schrägliegenden
Teil, während der zweite, die Saugöffnungs-Ebene 39 bildende Bereich
41 senkrecht zur Längsachse 23 verläuft. In diesem zweiten Bereich
41, welcher ungefähr ein Viertel des Kreisumfanges des Saugrohr-Endabschnittes
9 umfaßt, sind Ausnehmungen 42 am Saugrohr-Endabschnitt 9 vorgesehen,
welche zahnförmige Mitnahmeorgane 27 bilden.Finally, Figs. 9 and 10 show (Fig. 10 is a view of the one in Fig. 9
