Analyze the importance of track clamps in railway tracks

As an important part of the railway track, track clamps occupy a key role in the application. It can be adjusted laterally during and after the installation. The pressure plate has different adjustment ranges according to different types. With a double-sided wedge connection, an active lock function can occur.

According to different types, the rail pressure plate can accept different lateral forces. The vulcanized rubber nose on the rail clamp has the functions of compensating the manufacturing tolerances of the rail and steel beam; relieving the fatigue stress of the bolt; avoiding the bolt loosening; shelving the movement of the rail axis; pre-tighten the rubber pad at the bottom of the rail. After vulcanization, the rubber nose can be used in various working conditions and reduce noise and vibration. In addition, the track pressure plate should also be rust-proof during daily repair and maintenance. If the track pressure plate is rusted, it will affect the normal operation of the train on the track. Major railway accidents occurred.

The track clamps is a very common accessory on the rail. If the track is separated from the pressure plate, it will cause a great impact when the train is running. The railway track is likely to be loose due to the impact and more serious, derailment will occur. It can be seen that the quality and material selection of the track pressing plate are also very important. In order to deepen everyone’s understanding of the track pressure plate, let’s take a look at the characteristics of the track pressure plate assembly.

The track clamps assembly and flexible track fastener products are used in the flexible fixing system of the train track. The track clamps assembly overcomes the loosening of the pressure plate existing in the traditional hard track fixing system, reduces wheel pressure and the phenomenon of wheel jamming. The track clamps assembly reduces noise at the same time, and the track pressure plate assembly has a self-locking function. It can reliably withstand the lateral force from the train wheels.

Welding Process of Overhead Crane Rail Joint

Welding Process of Overhead Crane Rail Joint In order to make the overhead crane rail transport more stable, rail splints will not be used for the overhead crane rail joint connection, but welded joint connection will be used. The main key to the welded joint is to solve the bending deformation and weld cracking of the overhead crane rail joint. During the welding process of the overhead crane rail joint, the overhead crane rail joint is deformed downwardly, so the overhead crane rail end must be padded to a certain height before welding to ensure that the rail joint can be kept straight after the welding is completed. The height of the rail end pad is determined by factors such as the type of rail, length, fixing method and ambient temperature. The rails are fixed to the crane beam by means of hook bolts, and each joint is provided with four fixed points. After the bottom of the rail is welded, reduce the height to 20mm, and then tighten the hook bolts to continue welding. When the o...

What are railway rail fasteners?

What are railway rail fasteners? Railway rail fasteners Railway rail fasteners are a kind of railway accessories. The parts used to combine rails and sleepers (or other types of under-rail foundations) on the track are also called central joint parts. Its function is to fix the steel rail on the sleeper, maintain the gauge and prevent the longitudinal and lateral movement of the rail relative to the sleeper. The railway rail fastener system is divided into the shrapnel fastener system, gusset fastener system, and elastic strip fastener system. The gusset-type fastener is composed of a gusset plate, a threaded spike, a spring washer, an iron seat, and a buffer pad. The threaded spike is anchored in the reserved hole of the concrete sleeper bearing platform with sulfur cement mortar, and then bolts are used to fasten the buckle. Plate fastened. There are elastic strips I, II, and III types of clip fasteners. Type I elastic strip is composed of ω elastic strip,  screw spike , gauge b...
