As a railway accessory, the track pressure plate is a reliable connection between the crane track and the ground (or load-bearing beam). It runs along the entire length of the rail. Set groups every 500mm. The group is two pairs. In the operating state of the crane, it can withstand vertical and lateral impact forces and can withstand the additional lateral force generated by the crane’s deflection operation. The use of an adjustable combined pressure plate for the track pressure plate can overcome the failure of the traditional track pressure plate in use.

After the rail clamp installation, the reliable contact between the rail clamp and the guide rail cannot be protected. Some platens cannot be adjusted horizontally when installed, so they can be caused by normal loading or after thermal expansion and contraction. The longitudinal movement of the lift rail is prone to wear and tear, resulting in the loosening of the bolts of the pressure plate. Looseness, the rotation of the pressure plate, the wear of the track surface, and the bite of the track, in severe cases, the track will be broken, which will affect the wear of the main engine wheel and the damage to the drive mechanism.

When using the adjustable combined track platen, the track can be fixed horizontally or the track position can be adjusted horizontally. In addition, the track pressure plate has a self-locking function, which can reliably fix the track and prevent the track from shifting under high wheel pressure. The rails are held in the vertical direction by spring force. When the track is subjected to thermal expansion and contraction, it can also allow the track to move longitudinally without wearing the track plate and make the bottom surface of the track come into close contact with the rubber composite backing plate laid on the track.

In order to ensure the smooth and smooth operation of the crane, it is often used for laying welding tracks. Each section of the entire crane track is welded into one. There are no joints in the weld. Intermediate, but this form of installation is very demanding and has a lot of thermal expansion and cold contraction. The adjustable combined rail pressing plate is especially suitable for this kind of rail belt fixing, which can eliminate the disadvantageous factors caused by the use of welded rails.

Welding the fixed base, the fixed base can be used, the three grooves on the surface and the position of the rail presser can be positioned, and the allowable deviation of the position ...

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...
