Lecture for lesson number 27. Topic:The device of the railway track.

Manual and mechanized travel tools and fixtures

Hand tools are used to perform repair and track work that does not require the use of a mechanized tool or track machines. Hand tools are needed for tamping sleepers, unscrewing and tightening nuts and bolts of rail fasteners, tightening and unscrewing track screws, pulling out and driving crutches, drilling and cutting holes in rails, grinding rails and spreading rail gaps, lifting track grating, etc.

The instruction on the current maintenance of the railway track establishes a list of machines, mechanisms, equipment, instruments and tools that the divisions of track distances must be equipped with.

The list of hand tools for track facilities includes (among other things) crutch hammers, crowbars and pointed crowbars, track wrenches and socket wrenches, axes for notching sleepers, rammers, end tampers, a chamfering device, etc.

Travel wrenchdesigned for screwing and unscrewing nuts of butt rail bolts.The keys are made by stamping or forging from St5 grade steel. Working part material: heat-treated alloy steel, see figure 5.1.1.

The gap of the wrench is made along the width of the nut, on the other hand it is 1 mm larger, which allows you to work with deformed nuts (36x37; 36x41; 41x42). Weight 2.0-4.5 kg. Length 75 cm.

Crutch travel hammerintended for gainhammering and finishing of typical crutches when carrying out track work ontracks with wooden sleepers.Use them after a nozzle on a wooden handle. Hammer weight 4.8 kg, see figure 5.1.2.

Figure 5.1.2. Crutch travel hammer

crowbar designed to pull out crutches withoutbringing special linings under the paw, hanging sleepers whendriving crutches, hanging the rail when changing the rail pads and dr, see figure 5.1.3, crowbar length 1350 mm, width 60 mm, height 130 mm, weight 8 kg. If the horns of crowbar scrap cannot be brought under the head of the crutch, especially in winter, a crutch puller is used.

They also use crowbars with other head shapes, which ensure that the crutch is pulled out to its full length without placing additional objects under the paw.

socket wrench designed for tightening and unscrewing nutsembedded and terminal bolts, as well as screws.

Dexel (cross ax for cutting sleepers)created forfastening of sleepers, bridge and transfer beams. They are used for cutting burrs on wooden sleepers and beams, as well as for cleaning beds under linings. The back side of the ax is used for laying deep cards on the way. The dexel cutting blade is sharpened on one side like a chisel blade. Overall dimensions 275x105x60 mm. Weight 2.0-2.5 kg. Use after a nozzle on a wooden handle.

Drawing Dexel

designed for manual tappingby pushing the ballast under the bottom surface of the sleepers.

Tampers - flywheel and end

Rail pliers designed to carry rails of types P50, R65 . Permissible load capacity - up to 50 kg. Co. ntsy pincers, capturing the rail, must converge in the same plane without distortion. Weight of ticks 8.0 kg.

Sleeper pliers designed for carrying, dragging newand pulling out old sleepers, transfer and bridge beams when changing them.The weight of the pliers is 3.8 kg. The ends of the tongs gripping the sleeper must converge in the same plane without distortion.
