RAIL LENGTHS STOCKPILING DEVICE

FIELD: railway transport. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to mechanization of track works connected with stockpiling of rail lengths on intermediate storage grounds. Proposed device includes additional guide equipment including mechanisms for cross displacement of rail lengths relative to rail track furnished with release rail grips and pulling equipment including pair of flexible ties secured of fixed stops for connecting with ends of rail lengths of train. Mechanisms for cross displacement of rail lengths are made in form of horizontal frames arranged in end of rail-carrying train and on trailing inclined ramp connected to train arranged symmetrically in pairs relative to train axis in crosswise manner. Drive truck carrying rail grip is installed on each horizontal frame. Rail grip is made in form of pair of rollers with vertical axles of rotation. Working profile of each roller suits profile of cavities of rail length. Truck drive is two-speed. Device is furnished with horizontal beam placed across track, with row of holes according to location of lengths of rails to be stockpiled. Pair of guide holders is secured in two of said holes to pass flexible ties. Said holders can be re-placed along beam. ^ EFFECT: increased volume of stockpiling of rail lengths out of the limits of track, reduced loading forces in radial lengths and working guide members, reduced input of hand labor. ^ 3 cl, 5 dwg
