Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Zungenvorrichtungen nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 und Schienenweichen nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 14.The present invention relates to tongue devices according to the preamble of claim 1 and railroad switches according to the preamble of claim 14.

Zungenvorrichtungen für Schienenweichen, insbesondere für Rillenschienen, sind in verschiedenen Ausführen bekannt.Tongue devices for railroad switches, in particular for grooved rails, are known in various embodiments.

Beispielsweise sind entsprechend Fig. 1 Zungenvorrichtungen 10 bekannt mit einer Zunge 12 geringer Höhe und damit auch geringer Eigentragfähigkeit, welche deshalb auf einer durchgehenden Gleitplatte 14 zwischen der Backenschiene 16 und der Beischiene 18 verlegt und damit kontinuierlich gestützt werden müssen. Sie werden als "Flachbettzungenvorrichtungen" bezeichnet. Die an sich durchgehende Gleitplatte 14 ist an der Stelle, wo die Stellvorrichtung an die Zunge 12 angreift, unterbrochen, weil dieser Anschluss mittels eines von unten an die Zunge angeschweißten Anschlussstückes realisiert wird, welches bis in die Zungenvorrichtungskammer 20 unter der Gleitplatte 14 reicht. Durch diese Öffnung in der Gleitplatte 14 kann aller Schmutz und Wasser von der Straßenfahrbahn über die oberseitige Öffnung der Zungenvorrichtung in diese und damit auch in die Zungenvorrichtungskammer 20 eindringen. Zudem ist es normal, durch Spülen die Oberfläche der Gleitplatte 14 regelmäßig zu reinigen. Für das Ableiten des Schmutzes und des Wassers befindet sich in der Grundplatte 22 eine Entwässerungsöffnung (nicht gezeigt), die an Entwässerungseinrichtungen der Straße angeschlossen werden kann. In der Zungenvorrichtungskammer 20 ist zweckmäßig unter der Gleitplatte 14 in einem Hüllrohr 24 ein Heizstab 26 angeordnet.For example, are appropriate Fig. 1 Tongue devices 10 known with a tongue 12 low height and thus lower Eigentragfähigkeit, which therefore must be laid on a continuous sliding plate 14 between the stock rail 16 and the Beischiene 18 and thus continuously supported. They are referred to as "flat bed tongues". The self-continuous sliding plate 14 is interrupted at the point where the actuator engages the tongue 12, because this connection is realized by means of a welded-down to the tongue fitting, which extends into the tongue device chamber 20 below the slide plate 14. Through this opening in the sliding plate 14, all dirt and water from the roadway can penetrate through the top opening of the tongue device in this and thus also in the tongue device chamber 20. In addition, it is normal to clean the surface of the slide plate 14 by rinsing regularly. For the discharge of the dirt and the water is in the base plate 22, a drainage opening (not shown), which can be connected to drainage facilities of the road. In the tongue device chamber 20, a heating rod 26 is expediently arranged below the sliding plate 14 in a jacket tube 24.

Problematisch ist bei dieser Lösung, dass der in die Zungenvorrichtungskammer 20 eindringende Schmutz mit dem Wasser aus dieser Kammer 20 nicht entfernt werden, so dass sich dort unkontrolliert eine korrosionsfördernde Substanz anreichern kann, welche die Nutzungsdauer der Zungenvorrichtung verkürzt. Es besteht für den Verkehrsbetrieb dahingehend ein Interessenskonflikt, dass für das Funktionieren der Zungenvorrichtung regelmäßig von der Gleitplatte 14 der Schmutz abgespült werden muss und damit gleichzeitig ein Prozess der Korrosion in der Zungenvorrichtungskammer 20 in Gang gesetzt wird, der die Nutzungsdauer der Zungenvorrichtung nachteilig beeinflusst.The problem with this solution is that the dirt entering the tongue device chamber 20 is not removed with the water from this chamber 20, so that there can uncontrollably accumulate a corrosion-promoting substance which shortens the useful life of the tongue device. There is a conflict of interest for the transport company to that effect the tongue device must be regularly rinsed off the sliding plate 14 of the dirt and at the same time a process of corrosion in the tongue device chamber 20 is set in motion, which adversely affects the useful life of the tongue device.

Weiterhin sind entsprechend Fig. 2 Zungenvorrichtungen 40 bekannt, bei denen die Zungenkonstruktion und ihre Auflage auf einzelnen Stützpunkten 42 von den Vignolweichen der Eisenbahnen übernommen und auf die besonderen Bedingungen der Rillenschienenweichen angepasst wurden. Die dabei eingesetzten Zungen 44 sind dank eines größeren Profilquerschnittes wesentlich höher als Flachbettzungen 12, so dass sie den Namen "Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung" geprägt haben. Der Angriff des Stellsystems erfolgt seitlich an der Zunge 44, so dass für diesen keine besonderen Vorkehrungen hinsichtlich der Zungenauflage erforderlich sind.Furthermore, they are accordingly Fig. 2 Tongue devices 40 are known in which the tongue construction and its support on individual support points 42 were taken over by the Vignol switches of the railways and adapted to the particular conditions of the grooved rail turnouts. Thanks to a larger profile cross-section, the tongues 44 used are substantially higher than flat bed tongues 12, so that they have coined the name "deep bed tongue device". The attack of the control system takes place laterally on the tongue 44, so that no special arrangements with regard to the tongue rest are required for this.

Für eindringenden Schmutz und Wasser wird oft ebenfalls eine Öffnung (nicht gezeigt) in der Grundplatte 46 vorgesehen, die aber kaum wirksam werden kann, weil die Einzelstützpunkte 48 (auch "Gleitstuhl" genannt) der Zungenauflagerung einen Abfluss des Schmutzwassers aus der offenen Zungenvorrichtungskammer 50, die zwischen Beischiene 52 und Gleitstuhl 48 gegenüber von der Backenschiene 54 besteht, stark behindern. Um der Korrosion infolge des eingespülten Schmutzes im unteren Teil der Zungenvorrichtungskammer 50 entgegen wirken zu können, ist dessen regelmäßige Entfernung erforderlich, was technologisch kompliziert und damit aufwändig ist. Nachteilig ist weiterhin, dass wegen der fehlenden Gleitplatte eine Heizung 56 an den einzelnen Gleitstühlen 48 erfolgen muss, was Gebrauchsnachteile infolge mangelhafter Wirkung in sich birgt. Eine solche Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung ist beispielsweise in der DE 10 2011 100 511 A1 beschrieben.For penetrating dirt and water is often also an opening (not shown) in the base plate 46 is provided, but which can hardly be effective because the individual bases 48 (also called "sliding chair") of the tongue pad drainage of dirty water from the open tongue device chamber 50, which exists between Beischiene 52 and slide 48 relative to the stock rail 54, severely hamper. In order to counteract the corrosion due to the soiled dirt in the lower part of the tongue device chamber 50, its regular removal is required, which is technologically complicated and therefore expensive. A further disadvantage is that because of the lack of sliding plate a heater 56 must be made to the individual sliding chairs 48, which involves disadvantages in use due to inadequate effect in itself. Such a Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung is for example in the DE 10 2011 100 511 A1 described.

Weitere Zungenvorrichtungen sind in den Dokumenten EP 0 144 034 A2 und DE 10 2004 048751 B3 gezeigt, wobei die vorliegende Erfindung von der DE 10 2004 048751 B3 ausgeht, die die Merkmale aus dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 offenbart.Other tongue devices are in the documents EP 0 144 034 A2 and DE 10 2004 048751 B3 shown, wherein the present invention of the DE 10 2004 048751 B3 starting, which discloses the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, Zungenvorrichtungen für Schienenweichen so weiterzubilden, dass die oben genannten Nachteile überwunden werden. Insbesondere sollen die Zungenvorrichtungen leicht reinigbar und wenig korrosionsanfällig sein. Vorzugsweise sollen sie einen konstruktiv einfachen und kostengünstig herstellbaren Aufbau besitzen.Object of the present invention is therefore to develop tongue devices for railroad switches so that the above-mentioned disadvantages are overcome. In particular, the tongue devices should be easy to clean and not susceptible to corrosion. Preferably, they should have a structurally simple and inexpensive to produce structure.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst mit der erfindungsgemäßen Zungenvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 und der erfindungsgemäßen Schienenweiche nach Anspruch 14. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen und der Beschreibung angegeben.This object is achieved with the tongue device according to the invention according to claim 1 and the inventive rail switch according to claim 14. Advantageous developments are specified in the dependent claims and the description.

Der Erfinder hat erkannt, dass die gestellte Aufgabe dadurch besonders einfach gelöst werden kann, wenn zwischen Gleitplatte und Grundplatte eine durch die Grundplatten hindurchführende Entwässerung existiert, weil dadurch eine Verschmutzung und Wassereintragung beispielsweise in die Zungenvorrichtungskammer verhindert wird.The inventor has recognized that this object can be achieved particularly easily if there is a drainage passing through the base plates between the sliding plate and the base plate, because this prevents contamination and water introduction, for example into the tongue device chamber.

Die erfindungsgemäße Zungenvorrichtung für eine Schienenweiche mit einer Zunge, die zwischen einer Backenschiene und einer Beischiene angeordnet ist und auf zumindest einer Gleitplatte läuft, wobei die Backenschiene und die Beischiene auf einer Grundplatte angeordnet sind, ist somit u.a. dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Gleitplatte zumindest einen Entwässerungsanschluss aufweist, der durch die Grundplatte hindurchreicht.The tongue device according to the invention for a rail switch with a tongue which is arranged between a stock rail and a Beischiene and runs on at least one slide plate, wherein the stock rail and the Beischiene are arranged on a base plate, is thus u.a. characterized in that the sliding plate has at least one drainage connection which extends through the base plate.

"Hindurchreichen" meint dabei sowohl ein Enden des Entwässerungsanschlusses auf Höhe der Grundplatte als auch ein Durchdringen der Grundplatte, d.h. ein Hinausgehen über diese.By "passing-through" means both an end of the drainage connection at the level of the base plate and a penetration of the base plate, i. a go beyond this.

Es wird sich bevorzugt um eine Gleitplatte handeln, es können allerdings auch mehrere, ggf. auch beabstandet angeordnete Gleitplatten vorgesehen sein. Außerdem kann die einzelne Gleitplatte ein- oder mehrteilig ausgebildet sein. Sie kann insbesondere auch in Richtung der Längserstreckung der Zungenvorrichtung geteilt ausgebildet sein.It will preferably be a sliding plate, but it can also be provided several, possibly also spaced sliding plates. In addition, the single sliding plate can be formed in one or more parts. she can In particular, be formed divided in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the tongue device.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Gleitplatte in Bezug auf die Gleitfläche bis auf den zumindest einen Entwässerungsanschluss geschlossen ausgebildet ist. Dadurch werden Verschmutzungen, insbesondere der Zungenvorrichtungskammer wirksam verhindert.In an advantageous development it is provided that the sliding plate is formed closed with respect to the sliding surface except for the at least one drainage connection. As a result, soiling, in particular the tongue device chamber effectively prevented.

Allerdings können in der Gleitplatte auch Ausnehmungen vorhanden sein, beispielsweise konstruktiv bedingte Ausnehmungen, wie eine solche, die für den Angriff einer Stellvorrichtung an der Zungenwurzel erforderlich ist.However, recesses may also be present in the sliding plate, for example, constructive recesses, such as one which is required for the attack of an adjusting device on the tongue root.

Solche Ausnehmungen können bevorzugt gegenüber der Zungenvorrichtungskammer geschlossen ausgebildet sein, so dass auf diese Weise ein Schmutz- und Wassereintrag durch die Ausnehmung verhindert wird. Es handelt sich als dann bei der Ausnehmung um eine Vertiefung.Such recesses may preferably be formed closed relative to the tongue device chamber, so that in this way a dirt and water entry through the recess is prevented. It is then as the recess to a depression.

Besonders bevorzugt ist diese Ausnehmungen zugleich als der Entwässerungsanschluss ausgebildet.Particularly preferably, these recesses is at the same time designed as the drainage connection.

Erfindungsgemäß ist zudem vorgesehen, dass der Entwässerungsanschluss in der Gleitplatte als Durchbrechung ausgebildet ist, wobei die Durchbrechung mit einer Leitung verbunden ist, die mit einer Durchbrechung in der Grundplatte verbunden ist, wobei die Leitung bevorzugt als Entwässerungsrohr ausgebildet ist, das sich durch die Grundplatte hindurch und unter die Grundplatte erstreckt. Damit ist konstruktiv besonders einfach eine in sich geschlossene Entwässerung bereit gestellt, die Verschmutzungen und Korrosion wirksam verhindert.According to the invention it is also provided that the drainage connection is formed in the sliding plate as an opening, wherein the opening is connected to a line which is connected to an opening in the base plate, wherein the line is preferably formed as a drainage pipe extending through the base plate and extends under the baseplate. This is structurally particularly simple self-contained drainage provided that effectively prevents contamination and corrosion.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Entwässerung lückenlos anschließend an die Gleitplatte und durch die Grundplatte hindurch geführt ist, wodurch eine fluide Kommunikation der Entwässerung mit dem Bereich zwischen Gleit- und Grundplatte verhindert ist.In an advantageous development, it is provided that the drainage is guided without gaps thereafter to the sliding plate and through the base plate, whereby a fluid communication of the drainage is prevented with the area between the sliding and base plate.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass durch Backen- und Beischiene, Grundplatte und Gleitplatte eine geschlossene Zungenvorrichtungskammer ausgebildet ist, wobei der Entwässerungsanschluss die Zungenvorrichtungskammer ohne fluide Kommunikation mit der Zungenvorrichtungskammer durchquert, wodurch Verschmutzung und Korrosion der Zungenvorrichtungskammer verhindert wird und außerdem keine zusätzlichen Räume bestehen, die verschmutzen oder korrodieren können.In an advantageous development, it is provided that a closed tongue device chamber is formed by the jaw and insert plate, base plate and slide plate, wherein the drainage port traverses the tongue device chamber without fluid communication with the tongue device chamber, whereby contamination and corrosion of the tongue device chamber is prevented and there are no additional spaces that can pollute or corrode.

Wenn beispielsweise eine konstruktiv bedingte Ausnehmung für den Angriff einer Stellvorrichtung an der Zungenwurzel vorhanden ist, könnte diese zugleich mit einer Durchleitung verbunden sein, die mit einer Durchbrechung in der Grundplatte verbunden ist. Dadurch beschränkt sich die für die Entwässerung und die Stellvorrichtung in der Gleitplatte vorzusehende Ausnehmung auf eine einzige Ausnehmung, die beide Funktionen erfüllt. Außerdem könnte dann auch die in sich geschlossene Zungenvorrichtungskammer bestehen, so dass ein Wasser- oder Verschmutzungseintrag auch in diesem Fall vollständig verhindert ist.For example, if a structurally related recess for the attack of an actuator on the tongue root is present, this could also be connected to a passage which is connected to an opening in the base plate. As a result, the recess to be provided for the drainage and the adjusting device in the sliding plate is limited to a single recess, which fulfills both functions. In addition, then could also be self-contained tongue device chamber, so that a water or contamination entry is completely prevented in this case.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Zunge eine Zungenspitze aufweist und der Entwässerungsanschluss im Bereich der Zungenspitze angeordnet ist. Dann stört die Entwässerungsöffnung keine anderen konstruktiven Details der Zungenvorrichtung. Bevorzugt ist der Entwässerungsanschluss vor der Zungenspitze angeordnet, weil dann die Zunge vollflächig abgestützt werden kann und keine Reibung zwischen der Zungenspitze und den Kanten des Entwässerungsanschlusses erfolgt.In an advantageous development it is provided that the tongue has a tongue tip and the drainage connection is arranged in the region of the tongue tip. Then the drainage hole does not interfere with any other constructional details of the tongue device. Preferably, the drainage connection is arranged in front of the tongue tip, because then the tongue can be supported over the entire surface and there is no friction between the tongue tip and the edges of the drainage connection.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass eine Heizung unter der Gleitplatte im Bereich der Zunge angeordnet ist, wobei die Heizung bevorzugt vor dem Entwässerungsanschluss endet, wobei die Heizung insbesondere in der Zungenvorrichtungskammer angeordnet ist, wodurch der wirksame Querschnitt der Entwässerungsöffnung maximal gehalten werden kann, da die Heizung diesen nicht einschränkt.In an advantageous development it is provided that a heater is arranged under the slide plate in the region of the tongue, wherein the heater preferably ends before the drainage connection, wherein the heater is arranged in particular in the tongue device chamber, whereby the effective cross section of the drainage opening can be kept maximum because the heater does not restrict this.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Gleitplatte sich unter der Zunge vollständig zwischen Backenschiene und Beischiene erstreckt. Dadurch werden Bereiche, die verschmutzen oder korrodieren können, vermieden.In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the sliding plate extends completely under the tongue between the stock rail and Beischiene. This avoids areas that can become dirty or corrode.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Gleitplatte mit einem Gefälle in Richtung zum Entwässerungsanschluss hin ausgebildet ist. Dann wird besonders effektiv eine Entwässerung der Zungenvorrichtung bewirkt.In an advantageous development, it is provided that the sliding plate is formed with a gradient in the direction of the drainage connection. Then a drainage of the tongue device is particularly effective causes.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Gleitplatte auf seitlich vorstehenden Teilen der Backen- und der Beischiene aufliegt, wobei die seitlich vorstehenden Teile bevorzugt durch Ausnehmungen in Backen- und Beischiene, insbesondere als Rillen ausgebildet sind.

Anstelle von Rillen können auch Nuten verwendet werden.In an advantageous development it is provided that the slide plate rests on laterally projecting parts of the jaw and the Beischiene, wherein the laterally projecting parts are preferably formed by recesses in jaws and Beischiene, in particular as grooves. As a result, the tongue device can be made structurally particularly simple and dimensionally stable. Instead of grooves and grooves can be used.

Die Ausnehmungen nehmen bevorzugt nur maximal die Hälfte der Breite des Steges der Backen- bzw. der Beischiene ein, wodurch die Backen- oder Beischiene eine ausreichende Stabilität behält.The recesses preferably occupy only a maximum of half the width of the web of the jaw or Beischiene, whereby the jaw or Beischiene maintains sufficient stability.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung, weisen die Backenschiene und/oder die Beischiene in ihren Stegen zumindest eine Durchbrechung auf, in der die Gleitplatte auf dem Steg aufliegt, weil dadurch die Auflagefläche für die Gleitplatte vergrößert wird, was die Zungenvorrichtung steifer und haltbarer macht.In an advantageous development, the stock rail and / or the Beischiene in their webs at least one opening in which the sliding plate rests on the web, because thereby the bearing surface is increased for the sliding plate, which makes the tongue device stiffer and more durable.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Gleitplatte mit der Backenschiene und/oder der Beischiene durchgängig verschweißt ist. Im Bereich der Durchbrechungen kann die Gleitplatte ebenfalls verschweißt sein oder auch nur einfach aufliegen.

a second preferred embodiment of the tongue device according to the invention.

Während die in den Fig. 1 und 2 gezeigten Zungenvorrichtungen 10, 40 mit ihren Nachteilen schon vorstehend beschrieben worden sind, zeigen Fig. 3 und 4 bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der erfindungsgemäßen Zungenvorrichtung 100, 200, wobei es sich ersichtlich um Tiefbettzungenvorrichtungen 100, 200 handelt.While in the Fig. 1 and 2 shown tongue devices 10, 40 have already been described with their disadvantages, show Fig. 3 and 4 preferred embodiments of the tongue device 100, 200 according to the invention, which are seen to Tiefbettzungenvorrichtungen 100, 200 is.

Die in Fig. 3 gezeigte erste bevorzugte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 weist eine Tiefbettzunge 102 auf, die einstückig, gefräst aus einem Blockprofil mit beidseitigen Vorsprüngen am Zungenende für eine Dreipunktbefestigung auf einer Gleitplatte 104 hergestellt ist. (Alternativ kann sie auch mehrteilig aus einem üblichen Profilstück mit einem Adapter für die Dreipunktverschraubung am Zungenende auf der Gleitplatte 104 hergestellt sein.)In the Fig. 3 The first preferred embodiment of the deep-bed tongue device 100 according to the invention has a deep-bed tongue 102, which is produced in one piece, milled from a block profile with projections on both sides at the tongue end for a three-point fastening on a slide plate 104. (Alternatively, it may also be made in several parts of a conventional profile piece with an adapter for the Dreipunktverschraubung tongue end on the slide plate 104.)

Die Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 weist weiterhin eine Backenschiene 106 auf, die ein Profil 105C1 mit einer seitlich in den Steg 108 eingearbeiteter (beispielsweise eingefräst) Rille 109 zur Aufnahme der Gleitplatte 104 besitzt.The Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 further includes a stock rail 106 which has a profile 105C1 with a laterally incorporated in the web 108 (for example, milled) groove 109 for receiving the sliding plate 104 has.

Es ist eine übliche Beischiene 110 aus einem zugearbeiteten Rechteckprofil vorgesehen, die eine Nut 112 (beispielsweise eingefräst) zur Aufnahme der Gleitplatte 104 aufweist.It is a common Beischiene 110 provided from an accessed rectangular profile, which has a groove 112 (for example, milled) for receiving the sliding plate 104.

Die Gleitplatte 104 ist in Bezug auf die lichte Weite LW zwischen der Backenschiene 106 und der Beischiene 110 vollständig die lichte Weite LW überbrückend angeordnet und zwar so, dass sie die Tiefbettzunge 102 vollständig abstützt.The slide plate 104 is arranged bridging with respect to the inside width LW between the stock rail 106 and the Beischiene 110 completely the clear width LW and indeed so that it fully supports the Tiefbettzunge 102.

Dabei weist die Gleitplatte 104 einen Entwässerungsanschluss 114 auf, der durch eine Öffnung 116 in der Gleitplatte 104 gebildet wird, in der für eine direkte Entwässerung ein Rohrstutzen 118 eingeschweißt ist, der durch eine Öffnung 120 in einer Grundplatte 122 der Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 hindurchreicht und zwar über die Grundplatte 122 hinaus in den nicht näher dargestellten Untergrund 124 der Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100. Der Rohrstutzen 118 kann auch mit der Grundplatte 122 verschweißt sein, um ein Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit aus dem Untergrund der Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 in eine durch Gleitplatte 104, Backenschiene 106, Beischiene 110 und Grundplatte 122 gebildete Zungenvorrichtungskammer 126 wirksam zu verhindern.In this case, the slide plate 104 has a drainage connection 114 which is formed by an opening 116 in the slide plate 104, in which for direct dewatering a pipe socket 118 is welded, which extends through an opening 120 in a base plate 122 of the Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 and indeed over The base plate 122 also extends into the substrate 124 (not shown) of the deep bed tongue device 100. The tube socket 118 can also be welded to the base plate 122 to prevent moisture from penetrating the substrate of the deep bed tongue device 100 into a sliding plate 104, slide rail 106, rails 110 and Base plate 122 formed to prevent tongue device chamber 126 effectively.

Die Zungenvorrichtungskammer 126 erstreckt sich somit im Bereich der Tiefbettzunge 102 vollständig zwischen Backenschiene 106 und Beischiene 110, wodurch die bei Tiefbettzungenvorrichtungen üblicherweise vorhandenen Bereiche 50 (vgl. Fig. 2), die schwer zu reinigen sind, vermieden sind.The tongue device chamber 126 thus extends completely in the area of the deep bed tongue 102 between the stock rail 106 and the rails 110, as a result of which the areas 50 (see FIG. Fig. 2 ), which are difficult to clean, are avoided.

In der Zungenvorrichtungskammer 126 ist eine Heizung 128 mit einem Heizstab in einem Heizungsrohr vorgesehen, die bis vor den Rohrstutzen 118 reicht. Das Heizrohr der Heizung 128 ist an der Unterseite der Gleitplatte 104 befestigt und führt zu einem elektrischen Anschluss im Heizungskasten hinter der Zungenwurzel im Raum zwischen dem Stammgleis und den Zweiggleisschienen (alles nicht gezeigt). Der Rohrstutzen 118 wiederum ist in Bezug auf die Zungenwurzel (nicht gezeigt) vor oder zumindest unter der Zungenspitze 130 angeordnet. Dadurch wird einerseits eine maximale Heizwirkung in Bezug auf die Tiefbettzunge 102 erreicht und andererseits der Querschnitt des Entwässerungsanschlusses 114 nicht beeinträchtigt.In the tongue device chamber 126, a heater 128 is provided with a heating element in a heating pipe, which extends up to the pipe socket 118. The heating tube of the heater 128 is fixed to the underside of the slide plate 104 and leads to an electrical connection in the heater box behind the tongue root in the space between the trunk track and the branch track rails (all not shown). The pipe socket 118, in turn, is located in front of or at least below the tongue tip 130 with respect to the tongue root (not shown). As a result, on the one hand, a maximum heating effect with respect to the deep bed tongue 102 is achieved and, on the other hand, the cross section of the drainage connection 114 is not impaired.

Dieser Querschnitte beträgt etwa 75 % der lichten Weite LW zwischen Backenschiene 106 und Beischiene 110.These cross sections is about 75% of the clear width LW between the stock rail 106 and Beischiene 110th

Die Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 weist einen Anschluss eines Stellsystems seitlich an der Tiefbettzunge 102 auf, der einteilig oder mehrteilig ausgebildet ist und der bis in den Stellkasten reicht (alle Element jeweils nicht näher dargestellt).The Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 has a connection of a control system on the side of the Tiefbettzunge 102, which is formed in one or more parts and which extends into the control box (all elements not shown in detail).

Es ist weiterhin zu erkennen, dass die Zungengeometrie äquivalent zu einer Vignolweiche mit Kreisbogen 132 unterschlagend 134 ausgebildet ist oder auch mit einem Kreisbogen mit Vorbogen ausgebildet sein kann.It can further be seen that the tongue geometry equivalent to a Vignolweiche with circular arc 132 undercut 134 is formed or can also be formed with a circular arc with Vorbogen.

Die Zungenvorrichtung 100 kann einteilig als Monoblock, mehrteilig als Blockkonstruktion oder auch mehrteilig in geschweißter Ausführung hergestellt sein.The tongue device 100 can be produced in one piece as a monoblock, as a multipart block construction or as a multipart welded version.

Es ist zu erkennen, dass bei der besonders vorteilhaft ausgebildeten Lösung der Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100 eine durchgehende Gleitplatte 104 kombiniert mit einer vollständig durchgehenden Zungenvorrichtungskammer 126 und einem durchgehenden Entwässerungsanschluss 114, der nicht mit der Zungenvorrichtungskammer 126 kommuniziert, eine leichte Reinigbarkeit der Zungenvorrichtung 100 besteht und die Gefahr von Verschmutzung und Korrosion gebannt ist.It will be appreciated that in the particularly advantageous solution of the deep bed tongue device 100, a continuous slide plate 104 combined with a fully continuous tongue device chamber 126 and a continuous drainage port 114 that does not communicate with the tongue device chamber 126 provides easy cleanability of the tongue device 100 and the danger of pollution and corrosion is banned.

In Fig. 4 ist eine zweite bevorzugte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Zungenvorrichtung 200 gezeigt, wobei identische Bezugszeichen für identische Elemente verwendet sind.In Fig. 4 a second preferred embodiment of the tongue device 200 according to the invention is shown, wherein identical reference numerals are used for identical elements.

Es ist zu erkennen, dass hier die Gleitplatte 104 sowohl in der Beischiene 110 auf einer Nut 112, als auch in der Backenschiene 202 in einer Nut 204 aufliegt. Da hier also keine Rille109, wie in Fig. 3 vorgesehen ist, sondern eine Nut 204, ist die Backenschiene 202 noch stabiler ausgebildet.It can be seen that here the sliding plate 104 rests both in the Beischiene 110 on a groove 112, as well as in the stock rail 202 in a groove 204. So here there is no groove109, as in Fig. 3 is provided, but a groove 204, the stock rail 202 is even more stable.

Auch wenn die Erfindung konkret anhand der Ausbildung einer Tiefbettzungenvorrichtung 100, 200 mit einer Tiefbettzunge mit einer Höhe von etwa 105 mm beschrieben wurde, kann sie auch vorteilhaft im Rahmen von Flachbettzungenvorrichtungen verwendet werden, die Zungenhöhen von kleiner gleich 80 mm, insbesondere von 75 mm aufweisen.Although the invention has been described concretely with reference to the formation of a deep-bed tongue device 100, 200 with a deep-bed tongue with a height of approximately 105 mm, it can also be advantageously used in the context of flat bed tongue devices having tongue heights of less than or equal to 80 mm, in particular 75 mm ,
