Definitions

  • the invention relates to an anti-pitching device for intermodal semitrailers (destined both for use on the road and for loading on railway cars), during transport on railway cars.
  • the semitrailer comprises a vertical pivot projecting from a frontal part of the trailer frame, which pivot is associable with a fifth wheel of a hauling vehicle; the above-mentioned association provides a vehicle-trailer articulation necessary for transporting the semitrailer by road.
  • a railway car exhibits means for fixing containers to the car, comprising spikes for blocks affording engagement holes for the spikes.
  • railway cars are usually equipped for receiving various types of load, among which are semitrailers also equipped for road use and usual unwheeled containers.
  • a special housing is provided for the semitrailer articulation pivot, while the back end of the semitrailer, though its wheels are housed in a special loading pit fashioned in the car floor, is free to oscillate and tilt, obeying the properties of the semitrailer suspension, when the car negotiates a curve in the railway track.
  • Containers can be solidly constrained to the railway car by means of a system of spikes engaging in shaped holes in fixing blocks exhibited by the containers themselves.
  • Anchoring the semitrailers in the loading pit has however proved to be effective, except where the width of said semitrailers is between 2.5 metres and 2.6 metres on lines not equipped to tolerate such measurements.
  • the above drawback is due to the fact that the semitrailers, particularly if they are refrigeration-plant-equipped, or in any case wheeled trailers, tend to tilt during transport around curves, and their main sections are therefore liable to exceed the legally-set width limits for transport on certain lines.
  • a further drawback is represented by the fact that with respect to the railway tracks the loading pit is higher than the fixing spikes for the containers: this means that containers loaded on to the cars (due to legal container height limits) have to be vertically shorter than would otherwise be possible, leading to a loss of transportable volume.
  • the document FR-A-2534870 discloses an anti-pitching device for intermodal semitrailers during transport on a railway car, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the railway car is provided with means for fixing a container, said means for fixing normally are constituted by spikes.
  • the anti-pitching device comprises blocks affording engagement holes for the spikes, and further comprises four rigid supports bearing the blocks, which supports are rigidly constrained to the frame, and are distributed on the two opposite sides thereof. Two of said supports are located on a front part of the frame.
  • the invention solves the problem by providing an anti-pitching device for intermodal semitrailers comprising rigid supports bearing fixing blocks of the semitrailer to the spikes of the railway car, arranged on two opposite sides of the car and conformed in such a way as to realize rigid connections between the semitrailer and the car which at least during the semitrailer's use as a road trailer, are positioned above the face of the frame associable to the fifth wheel of the vehicle hauling said semitrailer.
  • the device of the invention affords the further advantage of permitting transport of larger-volume semitrailers, with consequent cost reductions.
  • figures 1A and 1B show that the invention largely consists in an anti-pitching device 18 for intermodal semitrailers 5 destined for use as road trailers but also transportable on railway cars 8, of the type provided with a loading pit 40.
  • the semitrailer 5 comprises a vertical pivot 1 projectingly borne on a flat face 2 of a front part 3 of its frame 4, which front part 3 is destined to couple superposingly with a conventional fifth wheel located on the back of a road haulage vehicle (not illustrated) by means of said vertical pivot 1; this to allow articulation of the haulage vehicle and the semitrailer 5 during road use.
  • the railway car 8 further comprises conventional fixing means, typical of such devices for constraining containers, provided with spikes 10 for blocks 9 (figures 3 and 9) exhibiting engagement holes 14 for said spikes 10.
  • the anti-pitching device 18 comprises four rigid supports 11 bearing the blocks 9, which supports 11 are constrained to the frame 4 and distributed on the two opposite sides 19 thereof.
  • Two of the four supports 11 are located on the front part 3 of the frame 4 while the remaining two supports 11 are located at the back 41 of the frame 4 on a reinforcing crossbar 42 on said frame 4.
  • the front supports 11 are conformed such that the blocks 9, at least during road circulation of the semitrailer 5, can be removed totally above the face 2 of the frame 4.
  • Figure 3 shows in greater detail that the device 18 comprises a flange 15 for constraining the supports 11 during railway use of the device 18, which flange 15 can be removed from the face 2 of the frame 4 before the semitrailer 5 is used on the road, at least in cases where the supports 11 due to their mass cannot be stably lodged above the face 2 and removably from the frame 4.
  • the solution in which the flange 15 is removable preferably comprises a horizontal pivot 16 borne by the frame 4 of the semitrailer 5, on which pivot 16 a first end 151 of the flange 15 for fixing the supports 11 is hinged such as to be rotatable from a first work position corresponding to the condition of the semitrailer 5 when transported on a railway car 8 in which a second end 152 of the flange 15 is associated to means 17 for blocking interacting between the flange 15 and the frame 4, to a rest position of the flange 15 corresponding to the semitrailer 5 condition when in road use, angularly rotated with respect to the pivot 16, in which the supports 11 are located above the face 2 of the frame 4 (figure 1) while the second end 152 of the flange 15 is correspondingly engaged by means 23 for holding said flange in the rest position.
  • the flange 15 is further provided with a guide 33 for sliding along the pivot 16 such that the flange 15 can be translated (see figure 2) horizontally between a vertical plane 20 passing through the work position and the rest position of said flange 15 and a vertical plane 21 intermediate to the vertical plane 20 and the halfway line plane 22 of the railway car 8 at which position the flange 15 and the relative support 11 are contained internally of the outline of the semitrailer 5 during turning manoeuvres in road use.
  • the angle of curvature of the maximum road turning manoeuvre (with the pivot 1 as the centre point) is indicated by R in figure 2.
  • the means for blocking 17 comprise a bolt 24 shaped to fit into a through-cavity 25 made at the second end 152 of the flange 15.
  • the bolt 24 is slidably borne by a guide 26 on the frame 4 having an interrupted central portion 27 in which, in said work position of the flange 15, the second end 152 of the flange 15 is inserted in alignment with the cavity 25, with the guide 26 staying engaged by drawing the bolt home through the guide 26 and the cavity 25.
  • the means for constraining 23 the flange 15 comprise a structure 28 for holding, together with the flange 15, the supports 11 in their rest position.
  • the structure 28 is interconnected with the frame 4 and is provided with horizontal rest elements 29 having an angular profile and a flat vertical element 32 for horizontally contacting the supports 11.
  • the rest elements 29 and the vertical element 32 are associated to a pawl 30 borne by the vertical element 32 superiorly to the rest elements 29 and rotatable about a horizontal pivot 31 oscillatingly about a stable equilibrium position.
  • the pawl 30, when in a raised position, allows free transit of the supports 11 so that they can locate on the rest elements 29 of the structure 28, while it interferes, when in the lowered position, with the second end 152 of the flange 15 such as to prevent extraction of the supports 11 from the structure 28.
  • Figures 3 and 5 show that the sliding guide 33 exhibits a much greater breadth than the pivot 16 such as to permit the flange 15 to be translatable with respect to the frame 4 perpendicularly to the rotation axis 161 of said pivot 16 to enable greater ease of insertion of the supports 11 on the rest elements 29.
  • the device 18 further comprises an arm 34 hinged to the pivot 16 at said first end 151 of the flange 15.
  • the arm 34 is hinged to the flange 15 at an intermediate pivot 36 (figure 7).
  • the arm 34 (figure 7) permits of positioning the supports 11 in the rest position, starting from the work position of the flange 15, with two successive rotation movements, a first of which is described together by the flange 15 and the arm 34 which rotate together about the pivot 16; the second rotation movement is effected by the flange 15 which rotates with respect to the arm 34 after the arm 34 has reached a limit position determined by the strike of the arm 34 against the walls 43 of a shaped recess 44 afforded in the frame 4 of the semitrailer 5.
