Integrated Locking Compensation Mechanism between Suspended Track Beams and Turnout Beams
Journal Title: Urban Mass Transit - Year 2024, Vol 27, Issue 2
Abstract
[Objective] To compensate for the preset turnout safety gap between track beam and switch beam of the mobile turnout in the suspended monorail transit system, ensure reliable locking when turnout is in place, and improve the safety and passenger comfort when train passing through turnout area, an integrated mechanism for locking and compensation is proposed, where the locking and compensating functions share a common power source, meeting the sequential requirements for locking before compensation after the turnout is in place. [Method] The current application status of suspended monorail turnouts and the main existing problems are introduced, and the application scenarios are analyzed. The design composition of the locking and compensation mechanism between the suspended track beam and the turnout beam is presented, along with an analysis of the motion working principle of the mechanism. [Result & Conclusion] The proposed locking and compensation mechanism has a compact overall external structure, meeting the installation space constraints between the suspended monorail mobile turnout beam and the track beam. Through the spatial layout design of the integrated linkage rod, the mechanism achieves reliable locking between beams, seam compensation between the turnout beam and the track beam, and fulfills the sequential requirements for locking before compensation.
