Analysis of key points of use of rail pressure plate

As a major railway country in China, different types of railways are laid on different types of sections, so as to facilitate the operation of vehicles on different sections. In order to facilitate the use of auxiliary railways, many railway accessories, such as rail pressure plates, will be used. The appearance of the rail pressure plate reduces the damage to the rail when the track is impacted, but the track pressure plate should also be paved during use, so as to give full play to its performance advantages. Let’s take a look at the installation points of the rail pressure plate.
The rail pressure plate adopts an adjustable combined rail pressing plate, which can overcome the failures of the traditional rail pressing plate in use. The traditional pressing plate is often directly pressed with the rail steel to the steel rail in use. After installation, the pressure plate and the rail cannot be guaranteed. Some pressure plates can no longer be adjusted in the horizontal direction after installation, so after normal loading or thermal expansion and contraction caused by longitudinal movement of the track, it is easy to wear, causing the bolts of the pressure plate to loosen and the pressure plate to rotate, causing the surface of the track to wear and gnaw. If the rail is broken, the rail will be broken in severe cases, which will also affect the wear of the main engine wheels and the damage to the drive mechanism. When using the adjustable combined track platen, the track can be fixed in the horizontal direction and the position of the track can be adjusted horizontally. For example, the QU80 platen allows the lateral adjustment of the track to a distance of 15mm. For example, the QU120 pressure plate allows the lateral adjustment of the track to a distance of 20mm. And it has a self-locking function, which can reliably fix the track and prevent the track from shifting when it is pressed by a large wheel. Use elastic force to fix the track in the vertical direction. That is, the hot glue rubber tongue is pressed on the track indenter, and the tongue is made of synthetic rubber that is wear-resistant, oil-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and corrosion-resistant.
To sum up, these are the key points of the installation of the rail pressure plate, and only after understanding these can it give full play to its performance advantages in practical applications in the future. Our company provides various types of rail clamps, and it is rare for rail clamps to fail in practical applications. Whether it is transportation or storage, the maintenance of the track platen should be done to prevent the damage of the track platen from affecting the normal use in the later period.
