When selecting steel rail types, the weight of electric locomotives and my cars, the speed of travel, and the density of traveling should be mainly considered. The larger the vehicle load, the faster the speed, the higher the driving density, and the larger the rail types. “Coal Mine Safety Regulations” stipulates that in newly built or expanded mines, the rails for running locomotives of 7 tons and above or mine cars of 3 tons and above should be not less than 30kg/m. The selection of the rail types of the good track should be determined according to the type of transportation equipment, the location of use, and the way of lifting.

The steel rails in China can be divided into three types: crane rails (crane rails), heavy rails, and light rails based on the approximate weight of kilograms per meter:

①The crane rail is divided into four types: QU120, QU100, QU80, and QU70. The material is generally manganese steel. The largest single weight is QU120, which can reach 118kg/m.

② Heavy rail. According to the type of steel used, it is divided into ordinary manganese-containing rails, copper-containing ordinary carbon steel rails, high-silicon copper-containing steel rails, copper rails, manganese rails, silicon rails, etc. There are mainly 38, 43, and 50kg. In addition, there are 45kg rails for a few lines, and 60kg rails have been planned for high-volume and high-speed lines. GB2585-81 stipulates the technical conditions of 38～50kg/m rail in my country. In 2007, my country promulgated a new standard GB 2585-2007, in addition to 38 ~ 50kg/m, a new 60kg/m heavy rail, and 75kg/m heavy machine rail.

③ Light rail. specified in the standard. There are mainly 9, 12, 15, 22, 30kg/m and other different rail types. Light rail is also divided into two types: National Standard (GB) and Ministry Standard (YB Metallurgical Ministry Standard). The above are several models of GB, and the models of YB are 8, 18, 24kg/m, etc.

Rails are the main components of railway tracks. Its function is to guide the wheels of the rolling stock to move forward, bear the huge pressure of the wheels, and transmit them to the sleepers. The rails must provide a continuous, smooth, and least-drag rolling surface for the wheels. In electrified railways or automatic blocking sections, the rails can also be used as track circuits.

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...

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...
